Example....
[spell98] Name = SPELL1 CastAtThing = 0 ShotModel = NOSHOT
[spell99 : spell98] : Name = SPELL2 ShotModel = NOSHOT_2
this one I do not understand, could you clarify?
A shot (or instance, spell, room, whatever it might be) that basically takes another shots properties and simply uses those fields as its own without needing to write those out. i believe TheSim or Q knows about this request.
Another Example... [spell66] Name = SPELL1 CastAtThing = 0 ShotModel = NOSHOT
[spell67] : Name = SPELL2 INHERIT = SPELL1 << here we take all the properties from spell 1 to use for this shot. ShotModel = NOSHOT_2 << this here does not inherit the shot property, instead uses this as its own. you will notice how cast at thing is not listed, thats because i dont need/want to change its properties for this shot.
