Well, i need to have data stuck on the message for whatever recives it, so
each should have it's own init prolly. map.shpere_msg(12,13,14, M_Damage(
type = dam.fire | dam.plasma, value=40000) ), or something to that effect
:)
What i'd like to know is, is there a benefit to using an inherited system
(like there is for say, exceptions, where you can catch base classes).
Would it be better to define a message that passes through a certain
substance as a mixin or base class, or by a attribute passes_vaccum=1 type
of thing (though it would be more likely to do a more in-depth analysis of
the object to detrmine this :)
Thanks, though :)
