The '''Stage Builder''' ({{ja|ステージ作り|Sutēji-tsukuri}}, ''Stage Maker'') is a feature in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', {{forwiiu}}, and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' that allows players to create their own custom [[stage]]s by using the given stage parts, and in {{forwiiu}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''{{'}}s case, drawing on the [[Wii U GamePad|GamePad]] and the [[Nintendo Switch]], respectively. Players can also choose from a variety of backgrounds and pick any song on the games' soundtracks. | |||

Next, the builder selects a theme: a mountain, a building in ruins, or a futuristic chamber. Each theme has its own set of special stage elements which allow for slight variations in stage design depending on what theme is used. The final step before building is picking {{SSBB|music}}, which can be any track that has been unlocked. Only one track may be chosen per stage, though the player may change it to a different track after the stage has been built. Users must place a minimum of four horizontal areas (for spawning points) for the game to allow their stage to be saved. | ||

There are three different sizes for most of the structures, with the one exception being the [[Ladder (stage element)|ladder]]. The player can use a limited number of parts per stage (unless they remove the limit by hacking). Each piece used will use up a certain amount of memory for the map, and some pieces take up more memory than others. Once ready, the player can test the stage through the editor; however, the player is limited to using {{SSBB|Mario}} with the default controls for the controller being used. One can also switch back to the editing screen to make more changes. Custom stages are compatible with SD cards. The limit to the number of custom stages a player can have depends on how much room one has in their internal [[Wii]] memory or [[SD card]]. The player can also send stages to their friends. | ||

Players now have much more freedom when creating stages, with the ability to draw platforms of any shape using the Wii U's GamePad. An option is given to either make the platform grabbable by players or not. However, there are much less stage parts than ''Brawl'', being limited to cannons, springs, moving platforms and magma. Jump-through platforms can be made by making a line, and tapping it. All objects' and platforms' locations snap to an invisible fine grid. A visible grid can be displayed by pressing the [[X]] button for easier alignment when placing or drawing. The visible grid has a "resolution" measured in '''units''', while the invisible grid allows accuracy to one-fifth of a unit. The grid also shows where in-game boundaries will be, with a green border showing where the camera boundaries are, and a red border for the [[blast line]]s. Walk-off stages can be created because of their placement. | ||

On April 9th, 2019, an advertisement released by Nintendo discreetly revealed the Stage Builder icon on the menu, confirming that a stage builder mode was in development at the time of the advertisement's release.<ref>https://www.polygon.com/2019/4/9/18303962/super-smash-bros-ultimate-stage-builder-tease-leak</ref> A promotional video on April 16th confirmed the inclusion of Stage Builder in the version 3.0.0 update scheduled to release the following day. | |||
The | The stage builder was greatly revamped since the {{forwiiu}} iteration. Besides the player-accessible layer, terrain can be placed in three additional decorative layers. Various materials are accessible to be used. Platforms can be drawn freehandedly, or using rectangle or oval tools. Their material can be changed at the player's leisure with the Fill tool. Instead of sets of moving platforms, rails can be freely placed by the player in order to make any platform follow it. Rotation effects can also be added to platforms, and both the rotation and travelling of platforms across rails can be toggled on or off mid-battle by placing switches. Many objects can be changed with a properties menu, allowing tweaks such as adjusting rail speed or enabling terrain gravity. However, unlike in {{forwiiu}}, custom stages cannot be used in [[Training Mode]] or [[Custom Smash]], both of which notably enable the player to modify the gameplay speed. | ||
