Terasology's Structure Template module implements structure templates that can be used to spawn the same building over and over again, either using an item or programmatically.

All the documentation for using it currently resides in the repository readme. There's a bunch of information in a few forum threads that are scattered around.

This task is centered around creating a formal tutorial like the World Generation Tutorial.

Definition of 'Done'

A repository with an example of structure templates that also demostrates their use in-game. Along the lines of World Generation Tutorial, the wiki should have a step by step tutorial that instructs the reader on how to-

• Use the structure templates toolbox and other magic tools.
• Use exisiting structure templates
• Create new structure templates
• Use the structure templates programatically as in GooeysQuests.

Where to start

• A guide to creating modules can be found here. GooeysQuests is an example of a module that uses structure templates to spawn dungeons (the templates' code is located at assets/prefabs/structures in the module's repo)
• The forum threads for GooeysQuests and StructuralTemplates help introduce the system further
