+// 
+//	There are several classes of damage types:
+// 
+//		Listed damage: the standard damage types in the game
+//			These are subjected to ingame resistances and bonuses like
+//			damageAdj
+// 
+//		Unlisted damage: special purpose damage types
+//			Generic: deals true damage that ignores normal damageAdj
+//			Null: does not deal damage and is not treated as hostile, but
+//				activates on hit events and applies status effects
+// 
+//		Invalid damage:	these are not real damage types
+//			Error: this is applied when an invalid damage type is selected, or
+//				a parsing error was encountered
+//			Unknown: this is applied to unknown virtual items for UI purposes
