Attachments
Models may have special "tag point" Group nodes where other models may be attached. You may define a tag point in Blender by placing an Empty object and giving it one of the predefined names.
The system is meant for attaching equipment: guns, cargo pods, turrets...
Example: A generic gun model attached to a point "tag_gun_right":
The actual list of available names has not been determined yet.
Collisions
By default, the collision mesh of a model is the bounding box of all the meshes. For more control, you can import a custom mesh using the collision directive in the model definition:
collision collision.obj
