The Dependencies tab allows you to modify which projects are loaded before yours. Adding a dependency allows you to use data from that project in your own.

The tab consists of the following components:

1. The Available projects, projects which will not be loaded
2. The Dependent projects, projects which will be loaded before yours
3. The Assign/Unassign buttons ^[1]
   • To use the Assign button, select a project from the "Available Projects" list (1) and click the Assign button ">" (3)
   • To use the Unassign button, select a project from the "Dependent Projects" list (2) and click the Unassign button "<" (3)
4. The Load Order buttons, which allow you to change the order in which projects are loaded ^{[1] [2]}
   • To load a project sooner, click the "↑" button (4)
   • To load a project later, click the "↓" button (4)

^{[1] Projects inherited from projects yours depends on will automatically be assigned to "Dependent Projects" and shown in the correct (fixed) load order

The General Tab

1. Main Levels:
   1. Startup Level: The first level when no character creation level is assigned. (This is a fallback value since there should always be the default Character Creation to fall back to)
   2. Character Creation Level: The level used for character creation (story and GM). The level you go to after character creation is defined by story. For more info please see My First: Adventure
   3. Lobby Level: The lobby level used for hosting multiplayer sessions
   4. Menu Level: The main menu level
   5. Photo Booth Level: The level used for making character icons
2. Gameplay:

   3. Game Master Character: Select the model for your game master character (only available when targeting GM)
3. Publishing:
