Whichbot "Chamber Order" Setting

<div class="IPBDescription">What do its values mean?</div>Ok, I need some help knowing what is what in the whichbot configuration file (whichbot.txt). There is one setting which I'm not sure what it refers to. It is not in any of the whichbot documentation and not on their site (that I know of; if it is, it's certainly not user friendly).

<!--QuoteBegin-whichbot.txt+--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(whichbot.txt)</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->[strategy]
[./roles]
...
[./builder]
<!--coloro:#FFCC00--><span style="color:#FFCC00"><!--/coloro--># Chamber order
chamber_order='4.0 5.0 6.0'<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->


Now, I can take a good enough guess as to what this does: controls the order the bots drop which type of chamber.

My question is: What the heck is 4.0, 5.0, and 6.0? DC, MC, SC? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" />

I have no clue; do any of you?

    tip: add that kernel of knowledge in commented out text in the file. Or actually perhaps change the varible type from a int or float to a char data type.

    (it's more efficent memory wise, not a big deal at all but a good practice to keep when coding; and I'm assuming it's possible)
