B		Start Fire Time	float
C		End Fire Time	float
D		Combo follow on time	float	Right after the first attack, the next attack will be the next move in the list within the group. Successive attacks (mashing attack button) will no longer follow the list until the attack is no longer successive. This was never used in the game by default.
