Hey DIRECTEM3NT,

Everything you have put into your map gets listed in the Outliner (Organiseur) select the island settings there.

The Add+ (Placer des actuers) has a small amount of stuff in it for occasional use

For all the good stuff go to the Content Drawer (Tiroir a contenu) and look in the fortnite folders, here is also where you put the custom content into your project folders
