Then, you can easily setup something like "resistance to > fire" or races that are fire-immune (phoenix, fire elementals, etc). Of I've already put this in mine, kindof. What I did was gave all sources of damage a bitvector for the damage type. That way you can just put in a check at any place you're dealing damage such as, well, damage().
