This picks up from Getting Started and Building the Module. If you haven't read or followed the instructions in those pages, please do so before continuing.

Also, please have a goal in mind when contributing. It can be something like adding placeables and decoration to the city core, revamping the roads of Neverwinter, etc. You can also get an idea of what to work on by taking a look at the issues.

Making a Branch

We can make a branch in GitHub Desktop for that by going to Branch > New Branch or by pressing Control + Shift + N (Command + Shift + N on a Mac).

Let's say our goal is adding enemy bugbears to Neverwinter Wood.

Unpacking

Okay, so we've modified the area to have some bugbear encounters. Run nasher_unpack_folder.bat to extract the files into src so git can recognize the changes.

After doing that, you should see some changes in GitHub Desktop. Let's add a summary, an optional description, and then "Commit".
