$declaresequence

The QC command $declaresequence forward declares a sequence.

This is useful when you want to add other sequences as layers that aren't locally declared, such as when they're actually part of an external .mdl file (see $includemodel). $declaresequence makes a empty sequence entry so that the local sequence pointers can get set, and at run time these references are overwritten with the actual sequence index.

In simple man's terms: $declaresequence can be used to tell the compiler that the declared sequences are to be taken from the $includemodel, but the ones not declared will be taken from the current compile. Useful to prevent sequence index mismatches if modding for multiplayer.
