Locations form the backdrop in which the events of the Fallout Series occur. Also known as the gameworld, the wasteland, or wastes.
Background[edit]
The former United States became a wasteland, filled with new dangers due to mutations in wildlife that altered many of the species. As the remnants of humanity began to spread once again, new violence was introduced in the form of differing factions, that settled in various parts of the former country.
Subtypes[edit]
A world space is an entire world, with its own landscape, sky, and weather. All Exterior Cells belong to a world space and cells are what makes up the entire playable game world. As the player moves around, cells are loaded and unloaded from the game to save on memory and performance.
There are two types of cells, Exterior Cells and Interior Cells. Exterior cells belong to World Spaces, and seamlessly join to one another in a huge continuous landscape. Interior cells have no landscape, and can only be accessed by the player if they are linked to another cell with a load door, interiors can be composed of multiple cells broken up by load doors or exist as one large cell.
