The files have structs for all sorts of modes, like idle, eat, attack, death...
Each struct defines the different animations a creature can do when in that specific mode.
Each creature has different animations. It is possible to use animations for a different creature,
but unless both use the same skeleton file, the results may be less than impressive. In some cases
the creature ends up unrecognizably maimed. Tha animations also define how high the creature is
above the ground. Using the wrong animations can cause a creature to be underground of float above it.
If you are editing a creature to make a new one: you can leave out animations in a mode if the
new creature has less animations that suit this mode. Or you can use an animation a few times, to
increase the odds this animation is used in the specific mode.

As mentioned before, I don't know anything more about these files yet. I basically
rename the dag files (and references) to my new creature atm...
When I know more about the AI, I'll update it ;)
