Cull is one of the major IPL sections used in plaintext map placement files. It is used to create zones with different behaviour like mirrors [1] or fixed camera positions just as it is able to influence the environment. For example it is able to disable rain in certain areas.

Flags
Flags are numbers which are build out of a collection of numbers formed by the power of 2-numbers lower than 231. Some are defining various behaviours of the zone. They can be combined by simply adding one lag value to another.
