What's superInstance‎ do?

I was curious what it was because with a different hscript class I use they had a parenting system.
So if the parent was a FlxSprite, any variables in there would be able to be set like if it was declared in the script.

// soure class
class CoolSprite extends FlxSprite {
	public var cheese:Int = 0;
	public var script:Script = new Script(this);

	// pretend there are script calls for func create and shit lol
}

// script contents
function create():Void {
	trace(cheese); // 0
	cheese++;
	trace(cheese); // 1
}

By setting superInstance to a non-null value, you are telling scripts that it should change variables in the parent class, if any exist.

source

var object:FlxSprite = new FlxSprite(100,0);
var script:RuleScript = new RuleScript();
script.superInstance = object;
// ... script execute

script

trace(x); // 100, because sprite's x value is 100
x = 200;
trace(x) // 200, It will also change for the object

Ok so my assumption was right!
