Creating city quizzes
City quizzes use a customised version of the map quiz editor.
Initial setup
City quizzes require no additional info in the quiz creation menu.
Settings
- title
- description
- country code(s) - the 2 letter country codes of the countries that the quiz applies to, separated with commas
- show quiz on search pages
- perfect score threshold - the furthest distance for a perfect score, in metres (default: 20km)
- 0 point threshold - the furthest distance where you still get a score, in metres (default: 200km)
- scoring function - "exponential" provides a similar scoring function to Geoguessr (that is, small misses are still fairly punishing), while for linear, the score decreases linearly based on your distance
Adding questions
You can add questions manually, or import them from a CSV file.
From a CSV file
You can also import questions from a CSV file using the following menu:
Please note that each line MUST be formatted as latitude,longitude,answer
or latitude,longitude,answer,hint
, and the file should NOT include a header.
Manually editing questions
To add a question manually, click anywhere on the map. This will bring up the question editing menu above the map:
You can enter the answer here, and press "edit" - this will not save the edits on the server side (yet), only in your browser!
You can also delete questions from the same menu, or by right clicking their corresponding dot on the map.
