	In cases of compressed file data, the compression header offset and size values will be set to appropriate values. Note that the data offset value will then point to the compressed data block~~, which is prepended by a uint32 containing the uncompressed size. (This size value is not present if the data is not compressed~~.) The compression header itself might look different for various compression techniques, but only one is known to be used in the game.

	===== SLZX =====		===== SLZX =====

	The compression header of the SLZX method is constructed by a four-char identifier (SLZX) followed by a ~~uint32~~ value storing the uncompressed data size. (Please note that this results in three distinct places where the uncompressed size can be found: The file table entry, the SLZX compression header and the beginning of the compressed data block.)

			===== SSHC =====

			This chunk type can only be found in savegame files. The specific header for the SSHC method consists of twenty bytes, where four int32 values of yet unknown purpose follow the four-char identifier. It is currently unclear whether this is a compression technique at all, since the uncompressed size given in the file table is usually smaller than the actual data block.
