In particular, this has the following effects:

	# Each tic, the game will subtract the value stored in [[extra_extra8]], divided by 256, from the player's current health. By default, the engine only uses this for drowning damage. Therefore, setting [[RETURN]] to -1 will prevent the player from taking drowning damage, as long as [[RETURN]] is a nonzero value. Note however, that the damage will still be accumulated in [[extra_extra8]], and is not reset to 0 automatically. As soon as RETURN is set back to 0, all accumulated damage will be subtracted from the player, thus potentially killing him instantly.		# Each tic, the game will subtract the value stored in [[extra_extra8]], divided by 256, from the player's current health.
