+--   * Spawn new statics from a static already defined in the mission editor.
+--   * Spawn new statics from a given template.
+--   * Spawn new statics from a given type.
+--   * Spawn with a custom heading and location.
+--   * Spawn within a zone.
+--   * Spawn statics linked to units, .e.g on aircraft carriers.

+--- Allows to spawn dynamically new @{Wrapper.Static}s into your mission.
+--
+-- Through creating a copy of an existing static object template as defined in the Mission Editor (ME), SPAWNSTATIC can retireve the properties of the defined static object template (like type, category etc),
+-- and "copy" these properties to create a new static object and place it at the desired coordinate.
+--
+-- New spawned @{Wrapper.Static}s get **the same name** as the name of the template Static, or gets the given name when a new name is provided at the Spawn method.
+-- By default, spawned @{Wrapper.Static}s will follow a naming convention at run-time:
+--
+--   * Spawned @{Wrapper.Static}s will have the name _StaticName_#_nnn_, where _StaticName_ is the name of the **Template Static**, and _nnn_ is a **counter from 0 to 99999**.
+--
+-- # SPAWNSTATIC Constructors
+--
+-- Firstly, we need to create a SPAWNSTATIC object that will be used to spawn new statics into the mission. There are three ways to do this.
+--
+-- ## Use another Static
+--
+-- A new SPAWNSTATIC object can be created using another static by the @{#SPAWNSTATIC.NewFromStatic}() function. All parameters such as position, heading, country will be initialized
+-- from the static.
+--
+-- ## From a Template
+--
+-- A SPAWNSTATIC object can also be created from a template table using the @{#SPAWNSTATIC.NewFromTemplate}(SpawnTemplate, CountryID) function. All parameters are taken from the template.
+--
+-- ## From a Type
+--
+-- A very basic method is to create a SPAWNSTATIC object by just giving the type of the static. All parameters must be initialized from the InitXYZ functions described below. Otherwise default values
+-- are used. For example, if no spawn coordinate is given, the static will be created at the origin of the map.
+--
+-- # Setting Parameters
+--
+-- Parameters such as the spawn position, heading, country etc. can be set via :Init*XYZ* functions. Note that these functions must be given before the actual spawn command!
+--
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitCoordinate}(Coordinate) Sets the coordinate where the static is spawned. Statics are always spawnd on the ground.
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitHeading}(Heading) sets the orientation of the static.
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitLivery}(LiveryName) sets the livery of the static. Not all statics support this.
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitType}(StaticType) sets the type of the static.
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitShape}(StaticType) sets the shape of the static. Not all statics have this parameter.
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitNamePrefix}(NamePrefix) sets the name prefix of the spawned statics.
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitCountry}(CountryID) sets the country and therefore the coalition of the spawned statics.
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.InitLinkToUnit}(Unit, OffsetX, OffsetY, OffsetAngle) links the static to a unit, e.g. to an aircraft carrier.
+--
+-- # Spawning the Statics
+--
+-- Once the SPAWNSTATIC object is created and parameters are initialized, the spawn command can be given. There are different methods where some can be used to directly set parameters
+-- such as position and heading.
+--
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.Spawn}(Heading, NewName) spawns the static with the set parameters. Optionally, heading and name can be given. The name **must be unique**!
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.SpawnFromCoordinate}(Coordinate, Heading, NewName) spawn the static at the given coordinate. Optionally, heading and name can be given. The name **must be unique**!
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.SpawnFromPointVec2}(PointVec2, Heading, NewName) spawns the static at a POINT_VEC2 coordinate. Optionally, heading and name can be given. The name **must be unique**!
+--   * @{#SPAWNSTATIC.SpawnFromZone}(Zone, Heading, NewName) spawns the static at the center of a @{Core.Zone}. Optionally, heading and name can be given. The name **must be unique**!
