Spells with alternative component lifetime

Usually lifetime refers to the ProjectileComponents lifetime, this value can be modified by lifetime modifying spells. However, a spell can contain other Components which have the capability of limiting the maximum lifetime of a spell independently from the ProjectileComponent.

Notes

Spells that set alternative lifetimes are unviable for use with Wisps.

In rare cases the behaviour of a spell may differ based on what Component's lifetime value causes the spell to expire.

• Deer-Swapper teleportation does not function inside unloaded chunks if this payload was released due to ProjectileComponent expiring.
• Projectiles that normally do not deal friendly fire can deal friendly fire when a modifier's LifetimeComponent causes them to expire.

Related: LightningComponent and ProjectileComponent lifetime

Similar to "proper" alternative component lifetimes, a LightningComponent can kill a projectile with a ProjectileComponent before its ProjectileComponent's lifetime has ended, in such a way that allows for deer-swapping. However, the time at which this occurs is still tied to the ProjectileComponent lifetime.
