Message:

Created a new MutliTrigger: EventMultiTrigger, which essentially does the same as EventTrigger but for every object that is a target as specified by teh EventMultiTrigger an Event is fired with information as being triggered by the target object.
This allows, e.g. to use the EventMultiTrigger to trigger QuestEffectBeacons.
I've also added a fireEvent() to Pawn such that an Event is fired when the Pawn is destroyed (forcebly). With EventMultiTrigger (but also with EventTrigger) one can now find out whether a Pawn died.
Here a little piece of example XML code to illustrate the usage:
<EventMutliTrigger name="trigger1">

<events>

<trigger>

<Spaceship />

</trigger>

</events>

</EventMultiTrigger>
To be able to implement this another feature was added to MultiTrigger, which is called broadcast. If enabled the MultiTrigger sends all Events triggered by NULL as to have come by all possible triggerers.

Additionally I've fixed a bug:
In DistanceMultiTrigger, an infinite loop occured under some circumstances. Not any more.

And did some niceifying (aka. documenting, renaming and code restructuring).

    8282            'simultaniousTriggerers':   The number of simultanious triggerers limits the number of object that are allowed to trigger the MultiTrigger at the same time. Or a little more precisely, the number of distinct objects the MultiTrigger has 'triggered' states for, at each point in time.
    8383            'mode':                     The mode describes how the MultiTrigger acts in relation to all the MultiTriggers, that are appended to it. There are 3 modes: 'and', meaning that the MultiTrigger can only be triggered if all the appended MultiTriggers are active. 'or', meaning that the MultiTrigger can only triggered if at least one of the appendend MultiTriggers is active. And 'xor', meaning that the MultiTrigger can only be triggered if one and only one appended MultiTrigger is active. Notice, that I wrote 'can only be active', that implies, that there is an addtitional condition to the activity of the MultiTrigger and that is the fulfillment of the triggering condition (the MultiTrigger itself doesn't have one, but all derived classes should). Also bear in mind, that the activity of a MultiTrigger is still coupled to the object that triggered it. The default is 'and'.
     84            'broadcast'                 Broadcast is a bool, if true the MutliTrigger is in broadcast-mode, meaining, that all trigger events that are caused by no originator (originator is NULL) are broadcasted as having come from every possible originator, or more precisely as having come from all objects that are specified targets of this MultiTrigger.
    8485            'target':                   The target describes the kind of objects that are allowed to trigger this MultiTrigger. The default is 'Pawn'.
    8586            Also there is the possibility of appending MultiTriggers to the MultiTrigger just by adding them as subobjects in the XML description of your MultiTrigger.
