Mostly Harmless
Legacy:LevelInfo (UT)
From Unreal Wiki, The Unreal Engine Documentation Site
LevelInfo holds:
- information about the map (default gamemode, author, music, etc).
- information about the zones in the map that don't have a ZoneInfo (UT).
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 with the Level pointer in any actor.
More details here: Level Properties
See LevelInfo for the UT2003 version of this class.
