--[[-- VERSION HISTORY
 - 1.5.0 - persistence support 
 - 1.5.1 - new "announcer" attribute
 - 1.5.2 - integration with autoCSAR: prevent limitedAF from creating csar 
           when autoCSAR is active 
 - 1.5.3 - ... but do allow it if not coming from 'ejected' so ditching 
           a plane will again create CSAR missions
   1.5.4 - red# and blue# instead of #red and #blue 
   1.6.0 - dmlZones 
		 - new hasUI attribute
		 - minor clean-up
		 - set numRed and numBlue on startup
   1.7.0 - dcs jul-11, jul-22 bug prevention 
		 - some cleanup
