Worldspawn

Worldspawn - "The world" entity which holds all non-interactive geometry. Keys of worldspawn are used to set global map configuration. World is a big model, and only one model that used VIS and other culling optimisations for rendering.

In QuakeC, worldspawn keys is read-only, they cannot be changed once map is compiled.

World keys list

Key	Description	Default value
Map title	message	Map name used in console. For savegames and game UI Blood Omnicide stores localized map name in translation scripts.
Min light	_minlight	Lightmap/lightgrid/vertex lighy minimal level. Makes map darkest areas to look brighter, useful for outdoor maps.
Min grid light	_mingridlight	Explicit minlight for lightgrid.
Lightgrid size	gridsize	Size of lightgrid cell, lesser size = more lightgrid points = more detailed lightgrid.
Lightgrid mix	gridmix	When set, lightgrid's ambient and direct lightning will be mixed together to amount of given fraction (0.3 - 30%, 0.5 - 50% etc.);
Ambient occlusion	_aoMode	Use ambient occlusion for lightmaps. Can be one of values: empty - no ambient occlusion 2 low quality (48 vectors) 3 high quality (164 vectors)
AO Depth	_aoDepth	This number of units trace should pass in order to get maximum ambient lighting. 8, 16, 32 are usual values. More depth = more dark.
AO Depth Exponent	_aoDepthExponent	Depth exponent is used as a power of trace distance checks. Default is 2. Lower values will soften ao effect.
AO Gain	_aoGain	Gain makes sharp corners brighter, its an additive value. Gain is added once more than half of all ambient traces succeed. Default is 1.
AO Gain Mask	_aoGainMask	RGB mask used for Gain. 1 0 0 will make gain zones to be red.
AO Scale	_aoScale	Scale darkens zones with not enough ambient lighting. Its a multiplier which is always lesser than 1.
AO Scale Mask	_aoScaleMask	RGB mask used for scale processing, using inverse color (1 0.5 1 will make green).
