Default Re: Family numbers

The family numbers just separate components that are right next to each other in the text file.

So, with a mesonbLaster V, followed by an Antiproton beam I, the different family numbers mean
-don't upgrade to the AP I.
-don't collapse the AP I into the MB when "show only latest" is on.
-etc.

Its not critical to have different numbers, but having them different allows you to move the components around without running into too many problems.
