Default Classes

AddOns: Classes need to be initialised first with class SomeClass;

Missions: Since Arma 3 v2.02 one can use import SomeClass; to initialise a class (see the import keyword).

In older versions, use "Default" call BIS_fnc_exportGUIBaseClasses; and paste the result into the description.ext.
