• 1 - Slow Pulse (varies alpha by ±16 over a period of 1.5 s)
• 2 - Fast Pulse (varies alpha by ±16 over a period of 0.4 s)
• 3 - Slow Wide Pulse (varies alpha by ±64 over a period of 1.5 s)
• 4 - Fast Wide Pulse (varies alpha by ±64 over a period of 0.4 s)
• 5 - Slow Fade Away (decreases alpha by -1 per frame, fades out over 4 s)
• 6 - Fast Fade Away (decreases alpha by -4 per frame, fades out over 1 s)
• 7 - Slow Become Solid (increases alpha by +1 per frame, fades in over 4 s)
• 8 - Fast Become Solid (increases alpha by +4 per frame, fades in over 1 s)
• 9 - Slow Strobe (transparent 0.8 s, visible 0.8 s, repeat)
• 10 - Fast Strobe (transparent 0.2 s, visible 0.2 s, repeat)
• 11 - Faster Strobe (transparent 0.09 s, visible 0.09 s, repeat)
• 12 - Slow Flicker (transparent 0.18 s, visible 1.5 s, repeat)
• 13 - Fast Flicker (transparent 0.14 s, visible 0.2 s, repeat)
• 14 - Constant Glow ("NoDissipation;" purpose uncertain—for sprites?)

• 16 - Hologram (Distort + "distance fade"), Fade In (instant; not very useful outside of code)

• 18 - Glow Shell (purpose unclear)
• 19 - Clamp Minimum Scale ("keep this sprite from getting very small (SPRITES only!)")
• 20 - Environmental Rain ("for environmental rendermode, make rain")
• 21 - Environmental Snow ("for environmental rendermode, make snow")
