-Effects are numbered 0-16.  The X,Y,Z coordinates are where to play the effect.  They are in world pixel coordinates where (0,0,0) is the lower left of the map.  ScaleX and ScaleY can be used to change the size of the effect, with 1 being the normal scale.  And Speed is how fast to play the effect 1/30 will play most effects at their normal rate.+  * Effect_Num - The effect number between 0 and 16 (see list below). 
 +  * X,Y,Z - The world pixel coordinates where to play the effect (0,0 is the lower left of the map in pixel coordinates). 
 +  * ScaleX, ScaleY - Used to change the size of the effect. 1 is the normal scale. 
 +  * Speed - How fast to play the effect. Lower values play the effect slower. 1/30, or 0.03(3), will play most of the effects at their normal rate.
  
 Effects are useful for visual flare.  For instance when a unit blows up you might want to make a custom explosion. Effects are useful for visual flare.  For instance when a unit blows up you might want to make a custom explosion.
