|
|
|
|
### What is a YAML and why do I need one?
|
|
|
|
|
You can see the [basic multiworld setup guide](/tutorial/Archipelago/setup/en) here on the Archipelago website to learn
|
|
|
|
|
about why Archipelago uses YAML files and what they're for.

|
|
|
|
|
### Where do I get a YAML?

## Gameplay
|
2021-12-31 14:12:22 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Risk of Rain 2 players send checks by causing items to spawn in-game. That means opening chests or killing bosses,
|
|
|
|
|
generally. An item check is only sent out after a certain number of items are picked up. This count is configurable in
|
|
|
|
|
the player's YAML.

While playing the multiworld you can type `say` then your message to type in the multiworld chat. All other multiworld
|
|

|
|
|
|
