Detailed Description

Base library for data that is used to control how spawn points generate entities.

This data structure has three uses:

Defines the parameters of a spawn point, for a spawn controller to use.
Defines the data in a spawn template, which spawn points initially take their data from.
Defines the data in messages to create and update spawn templates and spawn points. For purposes 1 and 2, this class needs to be a DtReaderWriter so it can be read from and saved to [mtl] scenario files. For reading and writing scenario files, there is also a rw-spawn-template-list class defined in vrfmsgs. For purpose 3, it needs to support encode and decode methods so it can be written to a network message.
