| Any class can inherit from the IUseNerve interface to provide a NerveKeeper. The NerveKeeper holds the current active nerve, and how many frames it has been running for. A "Nerve" is a member function of the class that will run every frame if it is active. For actors, nerves are often directly linked to skeletal animations the actor has, for example a "Jump" nerve that plays the "Jump" animation. | Any class can inherit from the IUseNerve interface to provide a NerveKeeper.
