== Long descriptions and values ==
This section gives longer description of the various gear types and how their values (i.e. tag, pos, timer, health, etc.) are interpreted. The gear values are pretty chaotic, so they are described for each gear seperately. Use the various setter and getter functions for gears to modifiy the gear values.
