// DtTriangleIndirect allows for the specification of the
// triangles that define the extent of an external DtFileNode. These
// triangles are created for the sole purpose of distinguishing then
// from real terrain polygons when calculating intersections using
// OPCODE. When an intersection with a triangle of this kind occurs
// it means that the intersection did not happen in a real polygon
// of the terrain, instead, it happened inside the DtFileNode extents
// and its underlying terrain database needs to be loaded for further
// intersection tests.
