+=== The In-Game World Editor ===
+When you're on a world you've got powers on, **F10** will take you to the world editor.
+Core behaviour of your world is controlled via the [[Settings|'Settings' menu]] - the settings file is a set of controls and values that you can edit through the in-game editor. Settings includes such things as the length of the day, the speeds of your vehicles, number of denarii per sheckle etc.
+You can change the models and textures used on everything in your world through the [[Graphics menu]], and you can modify the landscape and environment through the [[Landscape Menu]].
+You can also change the world's buildings, either by script or by setting up item chains and production rates in the [[BuildingsEditor|'Buildings Editor' tool]]. You can also script just about every game behaviour, using the [[scripting:introduction_to_events|event scripting system]].
