Examples
- A possible method of organization would be to put the creatures in a file with a corresponding class name, and use a subclass tag to segregate different creatures within their class.
Example: undead.xml
<creatures>
<subclass value="skeleton">
<creature name="skeleton">
</creature>
<creature name="warrior skeleton">
</creature>
</subclass>
<subclass value="zombie">
<creature name="zombie">
</creature>
<creature name="rotten zombie">
</creature>
</subclass>
</creatures>
In the above example creatures skeleton & warrior skeleton would be of class undead and subclass skeleton while zombie & rotten zombie would be class undead and subclass zombie.
Comments can be used in place of the "subclass" tag:
<creatures>
<!-- START: skeleton -->
<creature name="skeleton">
</creature>
<creature name="warrior skeleton">
</creature>
<!-- END: skeleton -->
<!-- START: zombie -->
<creature name="zombie">
</creature>
<creature name="rotten zombie">
</creature>
<!-- END: zombie -->
</creatures>
