A standing soldier releases its round when its firing animation reaches this stage. Stages count the frames of the FireUp run in the type’s Sequence section, starting from 0. At 0 the round leaves on the same update the animation starts.

A prone soldier uses FireProne in place of this key. A JumpJet=yes soldier plays its FireFly run in place of FireUp while its jumpjet locomotor is in control, and still releases the round at this stage.

If the soldier cannot fire when the stage arrives, it abandons the firing animation and returns to standing, or to prone if it was lying down.
