Is there a way to move costumes you created so you can reuse them in another adventure?

    You can duplicate the quest, which will keep all the maps, costumes, and items. :)

    Two tips:
    1. You might have to shorten the name of your quest before duplicating to avoid an error. Just change the name to something short, save it (don't publish), duplicate (makes a new quest called Copy of Old Quest Name), then change the name back and save again (don't publish).
    2. If your map/costume/item tabs appear empty, you probably just need to log out of the client and back in. It seems switching projects during a session causes the tabs to appear empty, but they really aren't.

    Duplicate the map, and delete all objectives. Change the title. There, a fresh template with all your old costumes.

    I knew about that one - but I am trying to figure out if there is a way to move the costumes from 1 existing mission to use in another existing without having to start from scratch on either the mission or the costume

    Ah, i see. At the time, no there isn't. :( I've heard rumors about us getting a library some time in the future for that though.

    Best you can do is document the costume in the editor, and duplicate the effort in a new costume in the selected quest. This is really not as difficult as it sounds.

    Yeah that is what I ended up doing, its not too difficult but I tend to use the advanced options and I can never seem to get it exactly right twice.

    In the costume tab, the top left next to the name of that particular costume, there should be a "rename" button. Do you not have that?

    There is a rename button at the top of the costume window. You can give it a name, and then also a brief description, like if it's a combat outfit or a casual outfit. :)

    Use the "Rename" to the left of the Costume drop down menu (top left)
    Or what I do is to use the "New Costume" from the drop down menu and that prompts me to Name the costume to begin with.

    Oh my goodness... This has been driving me mad. Such a simple fix.
