LevelInfo
LevelInfo holds:
- information about the map (default gamemode, author, music, etc).
- information about the zones in the map that don't have a ZoneInfo.
UnrealEd will automatically place a LevelInfo when you create a new map. It's located at the origin (0,0,0), but its Advanced → bHiddenEd flag is set so you can't see it.
The properties of the LevelInfo can be accessed
- UnrealEd Main Menu → View → Level Properties
- by pressing the F6 key.
- In script by the Level pointer in any actor.
More details here: Level Properties
See LevelInfo (UT) for the UT version of this class.
