Object Type
An Object in the scripting (sqs) language is a generic reference for a soldier, vehicle or building.
Such an object can be animated (a house, a tank), can have ai associated with it (a soldier), or, simply be a 'Rock'
various commands in the scripting language can refer as equally to generic (eg Object) types, as much as specific subtypes.
_pos = GetPos player; _pos = GetPos _MyHouse;
Subtypes
various 'subtypes' of an Object exist as poetic licence when describing the script command.
In General where a subtype is listed (rather than an 'Object' type) it means the command can/ should/ or is more normally associated with, that SUB type.
