Building the game
Beginner
In order to turn the uncompiled project into an executable application, it has to be built first.
For it's build system, Stride uses MSBuild. It's a powerful platform that's used by most C# projects.
Note
Currently, it's not possible to build the final version of the game using Game Studio.
Configurations
Games can be built using one of two different configurations:
- Debug - used for testing and debugging, allows you to connect a debugger to create break points and inspect the game while it's running.
- Release - used for creating the final version of the game.
When you launch a game from Game Studio or your IDE, it gets built in the Debug configuration.
What is publishing?
Publishing refers to the process of creating the final version of the game made for distribution.
