Member Declaration Flags

Keyword	Description
`deprecated`	If accessed, a script warning will occur on load if the archive version is greater than the version specified, with the optional reason specified in the message.
`internal`	Member is only writable from the base resource archive. Version 3.4.0 and newer.
`latent`	Does nothing. Purpose unknown.
`meta`	Member is read-only static class data. Only really useful on actors, since these can be set via properties on them.
`native`	Member is from the engine. Only usable internally.
`play`	Member has Play scope.
`private`	Member is not visible to any class but this one.
`protected`	Member is not visible to any class but this one and any descendants of it.
`readOnly`	Member is not writable, but is part of instances, rather than static class data.
`transient`	Member is not saved into save games. Required for unserializable objects and recommended for UI context objects.
`ui`	Member has UI scope.
`version`	Restricted to ZScript version `ver` or higher.
