	Decal splatting has a short vertical range. For FX called in frame commands, use bindto "origin". For func_fx, its origin should be < 8 units above the ground. Decals are randomly rotated and there seems to be no way to override that.		Decal splatting has a short vertical range. For FX called in frame commands, use bindto "origin".

	Apparently AAS can include 'swim reachabilities', but I'm not sure what (if anything) can be done with them. Arx: EoS fish seem to use AAS with both swim and fly reachabilities turned on, use MOVETYPE_FLY (there being no MOVETYPE_SWIM) and have added code to limit their maximum 'flying' height.

	~~idSecurityCamera::Pain() refers to an "fx_damage" spawnarg not documented in the entityDef. Similarly, idSecurityCamera::Killed() refers to an "fx_destroyed" spawnarg.~~

	~~idSecurityCamera::SetAlertMode() looks to have code to update SHADERPARM_MODE (parm7), where~~
