====== Map Info (DED) ====== A //Map Info// definition specifies the properties of a map. ==== Core concepts ==== Map Info is a mechanism for defining the metadata and properties of a playable map. During the map authoring process, a map is given an identifier. This identifier is used to associate a Map Info definition with the map, thereby separating the metadata from the map data itself (geometry, spawn-spot information, etc...). ==== Syntax ==== {{page>map_info_syntax}} ==== Examples ==== Doom's first map, "Hangar" in Map Info form: Map Info { ID = "E1M1"; Title = "HUSTR_E1M1"; Title Image = "WILV00"; Author = "id Software"; Music = "e1m1"; Par time = 30; Sky = "sky1"; }
