Draft: Bullet
The Bullet enum contains bullet types used by the game.
It is primarily used by CBaseEntity's FireBullets method to determine which skill setting to use for damage, and which damage type(s) to use. It also affects material type effects.
Note that FireBullets will draw decals for monster bullets, but not player bullets. This is because player bullets are normally handled by the game's client side prediction code, which will locally handle effects. Regardless of what value you pass for the draw argument, if the entity FireBullets is called on is a player, it will never draw decals.
