+--- **Functional** - Manage and track client slots easily to add your own client-based menus and modules to.
+-- 
+-- The @{#CLIENTWATCH} class adds a simplified way to create scripts and menus for individual clients. Instead of creating large algorithms and juggling multiple event handlers, you can simply provide one or more prefixes to the class and use the callback functions on spawn, despawn, and any aircraft related events to script to your hearts content.
+-- 
+-- ===
+-- 
+-- ## Features:
+-- 
+--   * Find clients by prefixes or by providing a Wrapper.CLIENT object
+--   * Trigger functions when the client spawns and despawns
+--   * Create multiple client instances without overwriting event handlers between instances
+--   * More reliable aircraft lost events for when DCS thinks the aircraft id dead but a dead event fails to trigger
+--   * Easily manage clients spawned in dynamic slots

+--- CLIENTWATCH class
+-- @type CLIENTWATCH
+-- @field #string ClassName Name of the class.
+-- @field #boolean Debug Write Debug messages to DCS log file and send Debug messages to all players.
+-- @field #string lid String for DCS log file.
+-- @field #number FilterCoalition If not nil, will only activate for aircraft of the given coalition value.

+-- @extends Core.Fsm#FSM_CONTROLLABLE
+
+--- Manage and track client slots easily to add your own client-based menus and modules to.
+-- 
+-- ## Creating a new instance
+-- 
+-- To start, you must first create a new instance of the client manager and provide it with either a Wrapper.Client#CLIENT object, a string prefix of the unit name, or a table of string prefixes for unit names. These are used to capture the client unit when it spawns and apply your scripted functions to it. Only fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft controlled by players can be used by this class.
+-- **This will not work if the client aircraft is alive!**
+-- 
+-- ### Examples
+--
+--          -- Create an instance with a Wrapper.Client#CLIENT object
+--          local heliClient = CLIENT:FindByName('Rotary1-1')
+--          local clientInstance = CLIENTWATCH:New(heliClient)
+--  
+--          -- Create an instance with part of the unit name in the Mission Editor
+--          local clientInstance = CLIENTWATCH:New("Rotary")
+--  
+--          -- Create an instance using prefixes for a few units as well as a FARP name for any dynamic spawns coming out of it
+--          local clientInstance = CLIENTWATCH:New({"Rescue","UH-1H","FARP ALPHA"})
+--
+-- ## Applying functions and methods to client aircraft when they spawn
+-- 
+-- Once the instance is created, it will watch for birth events. If the unit name of the client aircraft matches the one provided in the instance, the callback method @{#CLIENTWATCH:OnAfterSpawn}() can be used to apply functions and methods to the client object.
+--
+-- In the OnAfterSpawn() callback method are four values. From, Event, To, and ClientObject. From,Event,To are standard FSM strings for the state changes. ClientObject is where the magic happens. This is a special object which you can use to access all the data of the client aircraft. The following entries in ClientObject are available for you to use:
+--
+--   * **ClientObject.Unit**: The Moose @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT} of the client aircraft
+--   * **ClientObject.Group**: The Moose @{Wrapper.Group#GRUP} of the client aircraft
+--   * **ClientObject.Client**: The Moose @{Wrapper.Client#CLIENT} of the client aircraft
+--   * **ClientObject.PlayerName**: A #string of the player controlling the aircraft
+--   * **ClientObject.UnitName**: A #string of the client aircraft unit.
+--   * **ClientObject.GroupName**: A #string of the client aircraft group.
+-- 
+-- ### Examples
+--
+--          -- Create an instance with a client unit prefix and send them a message when they spawn
+--          local clientInstance = CLIENTWATCH:New("Rotary")
+--          function clientInstance:OnAfterSpawn(From,Event,To,ClientObject,EventData)
+--              MESSAGE:New("Welcome to your aircraft!",10):ToUnit(ClientObject.Unit)
+--          end
+--
+-- ## Using event callbacks
+-- 
+-- In a normal setting, you can only use a callback function for a specific option in one location. If you have multiple scripts that rely on the same callback from the same object, this can get quite messy. With the ClientWatch module, these callbacks are isolated t the instances and therefore open the possibility to use many instances with the same callback doing different things. ClientWatch instances subscribe to all events that are applicable to player controlled aircraft and provides callbacks for each, forwarding the EventData in the callback function.
+--
+-- The following event callbacks can be used inside the OnAfterSpawn() callback:
+--
+--   * **:OnAfterDespawn(From,Event,To)**: Triggers whenever DCS no longer sees the aircraft as 'alive'. No event data is given in this callback as it is derived from other events
+--   * **:OnAfterHit(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers every time the aircraft takes damage or is struck by a weapon/explosion
+--   * **:OnAfterKill(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers after the aircraft kills something with its weapons
+--   * **:OnAfterScore(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers after accumulating score
+--   * **:OnAfterShot(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers after a single-shot weapon is released
+--   * **:OnAfterShootingStart(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an automatic weapon begins firing
+--   * **:OnAfterShootingEnd(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an automatic weapon stops firing
+--   * **:OnAfterLand(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft transitions from being airborne to on the ground
+--   * **:OnAfterTakeoff(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft transitions from being on the ground to airborne
+--   * **:OnAfterRunwayTakeoff(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers after lifting off from a runway
+--   * **:OnAfterRunwayTouch(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft's gear makes contact with a runway
+--   * **:OnAfterRefueling(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft begins taking on fuel
+--   * **:OnAfterRefuelingStop(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft stops taking on fuel
+--   * **:OnAfterPlayerLeaveUnit(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when a player leaves an operational aircraft
+--   * **:OnAfterCrash(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft is destroyed (may fail to trigger if the aircraft is only partially destroyed)
+--   * **:OnAfterDead(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft is considered dead (may fail to trigger if the aircraft was partially destroyed first)
+--   * **:OnAfterPilotDead(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when the pilot is killed (may fail to trigger if the aircraft was partially destroyed first)
+--   * **:OnAfterUnitLost(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft is lost for any reason (may fail to trigger if the aircraft was partially destroyed first)
+--   * **:OnAfterEjection(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when a pilot ejects from an aircraft
+--   * **:OnAfterHumanFailure(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft or system is damaged from any source or action by the player
+--   * **:OnAfterHumanAircraftRepairStart(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft repair is started
+--   * **:OnAfterHumanAircraftRepairFinish(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an aircraft repair is completed
+--   * **:OnAfterEngineStartup(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when the engine enters what DCS considers to be a started state. Parameters vary by aircraft
+--   * **:OnAfterEngineShutdown(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when the engine enters what DCS considers to be a stopped state. Parameters vary by aircraft
+--   * **:OnAfterWeaponAdd(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an item is added to an aircraft's payload
+--   * **:OnAfterWeaponDrop(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an item is jettisoned or dropped from an aircraft (unconfirmed)
+--   * **:OnAfterWeaponRearm(From,Event,To,EventData)**: Triggers when an item with internal supply is restored (unconfirmed)
+--
