  * '''Variant''': a named collection of data items, specifying the actor's texture, animations, etc (or any subset of those data). Shown in the [wiki:Actor_Editor Actor Editor] as a single row. A variant can also be defined in an external file (located under [source:/ps/trunk/binaries/data/mods/public/art/variants art/variants/]), or as a combination of an external file with extra internal definitions (which merges both definitions).
  * '''Group''': a set of variants; represented in the [wiki:Actor_Editor Actor Editor] by a block of rows, separated from other groups by blank rows.
