How to save level in my project

[pldiguanaman]

I started the video Unreal Engine 5 beginner tutorial by Unreal Sensei. I created my first project and loaded the minimal default level. I saved all and closed. When I return to that projects the minimal default level is not there and I have to open the level again. Why doesn’t the level stay in place in my project once I saved? Sorry if a stupid question but I’m new at this.

From the menu Choose Edit → Project Settings

On the left select Maps and Modes

Then select which map you want to have as a startup map

1. Editor Startup Map - will be started whenever you open the project (probably you want your level here)
2. Game Default Map - will be started when game is started (probably you want Splash / MainMenu here)

Wow! Thanks for that! Now I can save and continue the tutorial later.
