 This field indicates how far an object glows. Default is a radius of 0 (no
 glowing at all). Negative glow radii darken areas - currently, negative
 glow radii are stronger than positive ones.
-=item I<speed> <number>
+=item I<speed> <float>
 If this field is greater than MIN_ACTIVE_SPEED (~0.0001) the object is placed
 on the active object list and will be processed each tick (see also speed_left!).
 If I<speed> drops below the MIN_ACTIVE_SPEED the object is removed
 from the active object list and it won't experience any processing per tick.
+Negative speed settings in archetypes and files cause a speed_left
+randomisation on load or instantiatian, but for calculations, the absolute
+value is used always.
-=item I<speed_left> <number>
+=item I<speed_left> <float>
 If this field is greater than 0 and the object is on the
 active list (mostly means it's speed is also greater than 0):
    - speed_left is decreased by 1
 This means: the lower I<speed> is (but still above MIN_ACTIVE_SPEED)
 the more seldom the object is processed. And the higher I<speed> is
 the more often the object is processed.
-=item I<connected> <number>
+=item I<connected> <identifier>
 When this field is set the object will be linked to a connection with the
-id <number>. What happens when the connection is 'activated' depends on the
+same <identifier>. What happens when the connection is 'activated' depends on the
 type of the object.
 FLAG_ACTIVATE_ON_PUSH and FLAG_ACTIVATE_ON_RELEASE they will control
 when to activate the object, see description of these below for further details.
 This field has some special meaning in potions, currently the
 bits for AT_DEPLETE and AT_GODPOWER control whethere this is a
 restoration potion or improvement potion.
 See include/attackinc.h for the bits of these types.

+If AT_DEPLETE is set the player will be restored and the "depletion"
 will be removed from him. If the potion has FLAG_CURSED or FLAG_DAMNED

+set the player will be drained a random stat by inserting an "depletion"
 into him.
 If AT_GODPOWER is enabled the player will gain +1 maxvalue in his hp, sp or grace stat.
 When the potion has FLAG_CURSED or FLAG_DAMNED set he will loose one in one of these stats.

 =head3 B<LIGHTNING> - type 12 - Lightnings (DEPRECATED: see B<SPELL_EFFECT> subtype SP_BOLT)
 This is a spell effect of a moving bolt. It moves straigt forward
 through the map until something blocks it.
 If FLAG_REFLECTING is set it even reflects on walls.
 The minimum I<speed> of an arrow is 1.0.
 While flying the arrows I<speed> is decreased by 0.05 each time it's moved.
 If the I<speed> is above 10.0 it goes straight through the creature it hits and
-it's I<speed> is reduced by 1. If the I<speed> is lower or equal 10.0 the arrow is

 =item I<weight> <number>
 This field is the weight of the arrow, if I<weight> is below or equal 5000 (5 kg)
 the arrow will stick in the victim it hits. Otherwise it will fall to the ground.
 =item I<hp> <number>
 If FLAG_LIVE_SAVE is not set it is the absolute number of times the creator can
 be used.
-=item I<speed> <number>
+=item I<speed> <float>
 If I<speed> is set the creator will create an object periodically,
 see I<speed> and I<speed_left> fields in the general object field description
 for more details.
 =item I<other_arch> <string>
 If the inventory of the creator is empty new objects will be derived from the
 archetype named by <string>.
-=item I<connected> <number>

 =head3 B<DRINK> - type 54 - Drinkable stuff
 =item I<race> <string>
 If this field is set the inventory checker will search for an object which
 has the archetype name that matches <string>.
-=item I<connected> <connection id>
+=item I<connected> <identifier>
 This is the connection that will be activated. The connection is
 'pushed' when someone enters the space with the inventory checker,
 and it is 'released' when he leaves it.

 See generic object field description.
 =back
 when the connection is activated. This field only has effect when the
 connection is triggered. So if you put a closed hole on a map, and the
 connection is deactivated, and I<maxsp> is 1 the hole will remain closed until the
 connection was triggered once.
-=item I<connected> <connection id>
+=item I<connected> <identifier>
 This is the connection id, which lets the hole opening or closing when
 activated. The flags FLAG_ACTIVATE_ON_PUSH and FLAG_ACTIVATE_ON_RELEASE control
 at which connection state the object is activated.
