The following macro is used to build the ship blueprints: VERTEX x, y, z, face1, face2, face3, face4, visibility See the deep dive on "Ship blueprints" for details of how vertices are stored in the ship blueprints, and the deep dive on "Drawing ships" for information on how vertices are used to draw 3D wireframe ships.
Arguments: x The vertex's x-coordinate y The vertex's y-coordinate z The vertex's z-coordinate face1 The number of face 1 associated with this vertex face2 The number of face 2 associated with this vertex face3 The number of face 3 associated with this vertex face4 The number of face 4 associated with this vertex visibility The visibility distance, beyond which the vertex is not shown
