A world space is simply an entire world, with its own landscape, sky and weather. All [[Exterior_cells|exterior cells]] belong to a worldspace -- in Fallout 3, most of the exterior is in the Wasteland worldspace, but there are many more worldspaces used in the game, and adding a new worldspace is relatively simple.

Worldspaces can share landscape with a Parent worldspace (for example, many of the settlement worldspaces, such as Megaton and Paradise Falls, have Wasteland as a parent), or they can use an entirely different landscape (for example, Tranquility Lane).

*'''Name:''' Editor ID of the worldspace
=='''Data Fields'''==
*'''World Space:''' A list of available world spaces by editor ID. To create a new world space, right click on the list and choose 'New' to create a blank world space or 'Duplicate' to duplicate an existing world space and it's current options. You can give your world space any editor ID you like; it will not appear in the game.
*'''Name:''' In-game name of the world space. This name appears whenever you enter the world space from a different world space.
*'''Parent Worldspace:''' If a Worldspace has a Parent, it is possible to use some Data of its Parent and share Mapmarkers with the Parent. Land and LOD can't be shared with the Parent.
*'''Parent Worldspace:''' If a Worldspace has a Parent, it is possible to use some Data of its Parent and share Mapmarkers with the Parent. Land and LOD can't be shared with the Parent.
'''Sharable Data - ''' The following fields are only available if this worldspace has a Parent selected.
 
* '''Use LOD Data:''' If checked, LOD Data is enabled for World Space
 
** '''LOD Water Height:''' Elevation that LOD water appears
'''Sharable Data - ''' Use the checkboxes to inherit these attributes from a parent world space if a parent world space has been selected. Otherwise, you may manually enter your own values.
** '''LOD Water Type:''' Editor ID of water type
* '''Use LOD Data:''' Check this box to inherit water LOD properties from the parent world space.
* '''Use Image Space Data:''' If checked, specified IS data will be enabled for World Space
** '''LOD Water Height:''' Elevation that LOD water appears. In most cases, this should match the height set for water in the Use Land Data group. If your world space does not use LOD water, you can leave this set at 0.
**'''Image Space:'''
** '''LOD Water Type:''' Select the [[WaterType]] for LOD water. In most cases, this should match the Water Type of the world space set in the Use Water Data group.
* '''Use Water Data:''' If checked, specified IS data will be enabled for World Space

**'''Water:''' Select the [[Water Type]] used in this worldspace.
**'''Image Space:''' Adds cinematic effects to the world space. See [[ImageSpace]].

** '''Default Land Height:''' Specifies land elevation value
** '''Default Land Height:''' Set the default land height.
** '''Default Water Height:''' Specifies default water elevation value
** '''Default Water Height:''' Set the default water height. To avoid rendering errors with autowater, it is recommended that you set this value to at least 10500.
* '''Use Water Data:''' Check this box to inherit water data from the parent world space.
**'''Water:''' Select the [[WaterType]] used in this worldspace.




'''Use Map Data:''' If you want a custom world map, select the DDS file here.

*'''Usable Dimensions:''' Set the limits of the playable area of the worldspace (NW corner to SE corner).
*'''Usable Dimensions:''' Specify the usable dimensions of the map image. Dimensions are measured in pixels from the upper left corner to the lower right corner.

'''World Map Offset Data'''
'''World Map Offset Data'''
*'''Cell X Offset:'''
*'''Cell X Offset:''' Offset the starting x coordinate.
*'''Cell Y Offset:'''
*'''Cell Y Offset:''' Offset the starting y coordinate.
*'''World Map Scale:'''
*'''World Map Scale:''' Adjust the scale of the world map.
** These options appear to allow the map maker to fine-tune the relationship between the world map image and the cell coordinates. (Needs verification.)
