	When an Answer is attached to a [[Template Panel]], it is part of the properties that are carried over to its instances. The name is kept verbatim. The [[Event]]s are copied over intelligently. Specifically, if the [[Event]] has as one of its parameters an [[Item]] of the type which the [[Template Panel]] is applied to, then the [[Event]] of the instance created will have that parameter refer to the item the instance belongs to. For example, if the Answer has a NEIGHBORHOOD_SET_ATTRIBUTE [[Event]], and the [[Template Panel]] is applied to [[Neighborhood]]s, then each instanced [[Panel]] will relate to a specific [[Neighborhood], and the NEIGHBORHOOD_SET_ATTRIBUTE [[Event]] of that [[Panel]] will be configured to change an [[Attribute]] of that specific [[Neighborhood]].
