LevelInfo holds:
* information about the map (default gamemode, author, music, etc).
* information about the zones in the map that don't have a [[Legacy:ZoneInfo (UT)|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
* [[Legacy:UnrealEd Main Menu|UnrealEd Main Menu]] -> View -> Level Properties
* by pressing the F6 key.
* In script by with the Level pointer in any actor.

More details here: [[Legacy:Level Properties|Level Properties]]

See [[Legacy:LevelInfo|LevelInfo]] for the UT2003 version of this class.
