Description:
|p2= lookAtData: [[Array]] - an array with arrays of look-up-data in form of:
    Exectues a code when one of the specified objects is looked at (player's cursor pointed towards it) for enough time.
*0: [[Object]] - Object to be looked at

*2: [[Boolean]] - [[true]] to remove it from array when player looked at it
*3: [[Code]] - Code spawned when player looked long enough at the object


Parameters:
|r1= [[Nothing]]
Select 0 - ARRAY: list of objects to be looked at
Select X - Array element
Select 0 - OBJECT: object to be looked at
Select 1 - NUMBER: how long do we have to look at it
