+ cWorld is the game world. It is the hub of all the information managed by individual classes,
+ providing convenient access to them. MCServer supports multiple worlds in any combination of
+ world types. You can have two overworlds, three nethers etc. To enumerate all world the server
+ provides, use the {{cRoot}}:ForEachWorld() function.</p>
+ <p>
+ The world data is held in individual chunks. Each chunk consists of 16 (x) * 16 (z) * 256 (y)
+ blocks, each block is specified by its block type (8-bit) and block metadata (4-bit).
+ Additionally, each block has two light values calculated - skylight (how much daylight it receives)
+ and blocklight (how much light from light-emissive blocks it receives), both 4-bit.</p>
+ <p>
+ Each world runs several separate threads used for various housekeeping purposes, the most important
+ of those is the Tick thread. This thread updates the game logic 20 times per second, and it is
+ the thread where all the gameplay actions are evaluated. Liquid physics, entity interactions,
+ player ovement etc., all are applied in this thread.</p>
+ <p>
+ Additional threads include the generation thread (generates new chunks as needed, storage thread
+ (saves and loads chunk from the disk), lighting thread (updates block light values) and the
+ chunksender thread (compresses chunks to send to the clients).</p>
+ <p>
+ The world provides access to all its {{cPlayer|players}}, {{cEntity|entities}} and {{cBlockEntity|block
+ entities}}. Because of multithreading issues, individual objects cannot be retrieved for indefinite
+ handling, but rather must be modified in callbacks, within which they are guaranteed to stay valid.</p>
+ <p>
+ Physics for individual blocks are handled by the simulators. These will fire in each tick for all
+ blocks that have been scheduled for simulator update ("simulator wakeup"). The simulators include
+ liquid physics, falling blocks, fire spreading and extinguishing and redstone.</p>
+ <p>
+ Game time is also handled by the world. It provides the time-of-day and the total world age.
