== LAND Records Notes ==
Altering [[Landscape]] data in a [[Cell]] appears to turn off precombination.  In fact, anything that changes a LAND record on a cell appears to do it.
References will need to be re-combined after adjusting LAND records prior to publishing to mitigate any potential performance issues. While it should be considered a Best Practice in regards to editing and optimizing cell data, this is especially important where consoles are concerned as they do not have the processing fidelity required to handle the additional system strain. File size and compatibility will have to be the trade offs for a smoother experience.
== Game Bug ==
Do not create interiors or new worldspaces in an ESL or ESL-flagged plugin. You will not be able to create precombined data for them.
