Systems and methods for editing virtual content of a virtual space

A system for editing virtual content of a virtual space, the system comprising:

• electronic storage comprising electronic storage media configured to store electronic files that define virtual objects implemented in the virtual space, an individual file being associated with one or more properties of one or more virtual objects, an individual file storing a property value for each of the one or more properties associated with the file, such that a first object is defined, at least in part, by a first file or a second file, wherein the first file is associated with a first property of the first object, the first file storing a first value for the first property, and wherein the second file is associated with the first property of the first object, the second file storing a second value for the first property;
• one or more physical processors configured by computer-readable instructions to:
• execute an instance of the virtual space, the virtual space being implemented to include one or more virtual objects, wherein the property values for the properties of the one or more virtual objects that are implemented in the virtual space are determined based on a selection of the files that store the property values, the one or more virtual objects implemented in the virtual space including the first object;
• and
• effectuate presentation of an editing interface for selecting files, the editing interface including:
• one or more layers that correspond to file groups, the file groups including files that store different property values for one or more properties that are associated commonly between the files, wherein a given layer is selectable by a user to make selections of the different files included in the file group that corresponds to the layer, such that
• the editing interface is configured to facilitate selecting files for the first virtual object, wherein the editing interface includes a first layer corresponding to a first file group, the first file group including the first file and the second file, wherein the first layer is selectable by the user to select the first file or the second file.
