Additional Tags

animdist
Leave this tag out if the bogey is not animated. The distance traveled in metres by the bogeys in 1 second (30 frames) of animation.
Bogey animations (exported from Gmax or 3ds Max) must be called "anim.kin".
direct-drive
When direct-drive 1 is present, the bogey animation is linked to the steam piston and physics system. If this tag is not included the piston and steam sounds will not work!

Undocumented feature: animated steam bogeys should be attached to a.bog2 for the direct drive to synchronise the sound and smoke puffs to the movement of the pistons. This may require verification.
