Yes. It isn't a usual palet (if it is a palet) and it probably doesn't contain colors. It seems that it's used to switch the colors that are in the unit palets (unittem, unitsno, etc.). It may also change brightness of colors.
And does anyone knows how many different directions (facings) a voxel can have? Probably more then 8.
