This packet should be generated by firing specific weapons in specific fire modes.
For example, the Phoenix (<code>hunterseeker</code>) discharged in its primary fire mode generates this packet;
but, the Phoenix in secondary fire mode does not.
The Striker (<code>striker</code>) discharged in its primary fire mode generates this packet;
but, the Striker in secondary fire mode does not.
The chosen fire mode(s) are not a straight-fire projectile but one that has special control asserted over it.
For the Phoenix, it is user operated (camera-guided).
For the Striker, it tracks towards a valid target while the weapon's reticle hovers over that target.<br>
<br>
This packet will continue to be dispatched by the client for as long as the projectile being tracked is in the air.
All projectiles have a maximum lifespan before they will lose control and either despawn and/or explode.
This number is tracked in the packet for simplicity.
<br>
This control can not be demonstrated until that projectile is physically constructed on the other clients
in the same way that a player or a vehicle is constructed.
A projectile that exhibits intentional construction behavior is flagged using the property <code>exists_on_remote_client</code>.
The model comes with a number of caveats,
some that originate from the object construction process itself,
but also some from this packet.
For example,
as indicated by the static <code>shot_original_orient</code> values reported by this packet.
a discharged controlled projectile will not normally rotate.
A minor loss of lifespan may be levied.</p></div><dlclass="paramcmts block"><dtclass="param">projectile_guid</dt><ddclass="cmt"><p>when dispatched by the client, the client-specific local unique identifier of the projectile;
