Latest Commit

Added EffectObj: play animation once, currently no support for the same effect playing at different places. Will add a 3d point list of 2d coordinates + the current animation to each EffectObj for simultaneous, independent EffectObj deployment

Added a name based object ID system: this adds a layer of abstraction from the ObjID system and allows the player to find an object based off a name they assign at creation. Currently only supported by EffectObj and CharObj.
