### What is a YAML?
YAML is the file format which Archipelago uses in order to configure a player's world. It allows you to dictate which game you will be playing as well as the settings you would like for that game.
YAML is a format very similar to JSON however it is made to be more human-readable. If you are ever unsure of the validity of your YAML file you may check the file by uploading it to the check page on the Archipelago website. Check page: https://archipelago.gg/mysterycheck

### Creating a YAML
YAML files may be generated on the Archipelago website by visiting the games page and clicking the "Settings Page" link under any game. Clicking "Export Settings" in a game's settings page will download the YAML to your system. Games page: https://archipelago.gg/games

In a multiworld there must be one YAML per world. Any number of players can play on each world using either the game's native coop system or using Archipelago's coop support. Each world will hold one slot in the multiworld and will have a slot name and, if the relevant game requires it, files to associate it with that multiworld.

### Gather All Player YAMLs
All players that wish to play in the generated multiworld must have a YAML file which contains the settings that they wish to play with.
Typically, a single participant of the multiworld will gather the YAML files from all other players. After getting the YAML files of each participant for your multiworld game they can be compressed into a ZIP folder to then be uploaded to the multiworld generator page.

#### Rolling a YAML Locally
It is possible to roll the multiworld locally, using a local Archipelago installation. This is done by entering the installation directory of the Archipelago installation and placing each YAML file in the `Players` folder. If the folder does not exist then it can be created manually.
After filling the `Players` folder the `ArchipelagoGenerate.exe` program should be run in order to generate a multiworld. The output of this process is placed in the `output` folder. The output wll be a `.archipelago` file which can be subsequently uploaded to the Archipelago host game page. Archipelago host game page: https://archipelago.gg/uploads

The `.AP` file may be run locally in order to host the multiworld on the local machine. This is done by running `ArchipelagoServer.exe` and pointing the resulting file selection prompt to the `.archipelago` file that was generated.
