Where does cslocaldata.* and localdata.* come from?

[nicklaswj]

I've been looking through your code base and I noticed that you read from entities prefixed with cslocaldata. and localdata. when you read the player position and player velocity (DemoInfo/DemoParser.cs - HandleNewPlayer()).

However I haven't encountered a demo file that actually contains these entities, are they special somehow?

It's not really a problem, I'm just curious and now it just really annoys me that I can't figure it out :D

They are mostly used in older demos, IIRC. POV-demos might contain them as well IIRC.

Thank you for the answer.

Follow up question: If they are mostly used in older/POV demo files, how does the player positions get updated if they aren't there (newer/non-POV demo files)?

There should always be one of them there - again, iirc.
