The core of Doom 3 is driven by what we lovingly refer to as 'decl files' which is short for
|
||
'declaration files'. A decl file contains one or more decl types. These types <b>can</b> be mixed and
|
||
matched, but we tend to keep all the decls of a certain type in a certain file. There are 15 decl types
|
||
that come in standard Doom 3, but more decls can be added by mod authors.
