MOOSE/Moose Development/Moose/Core/Database.lua

--- **Core** - Manages several databases containing templates, mission objects, and mission information.
--
-- ===
--
-- ## Features:
--
--   * During mission startup, scan the mission environment, and create / instantiate intelligently the different objects as defined within the mission.
--   * Manage database of DCS Group templates (as modelled using the mission editor).
--     - Group templates.
--     - Unit templates.
--     - Statics templates.
--   * Manage database of @{Wrapper.Group#GROUP} objects alive in the mission.
--   * Manage database of @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT} objects alive in the mission.
--   * Manage database of @{Wrapper.Static#STATIC} objects alive in the mission.
--   * Manage database of players.
--   * Manage database of client slots defined using the mission editor.
--   * Manage database of airbases on the map, and from FARPs and ships as defined using the mission editor.
--   * Manage database of countries.
--   * Manage database of zone names.
--   * Manage database of hits to units and statics.
--   * Manage database of destroys of units and statics.
--   * Manage database of @{Core.Zone#ZONE_BASE} objects.

--- Contains collections of wrapper objects defined within MOOSE that reflect objects within the simulator.
--
-- Mission designers can use the DATABASE class to refer to:
--
--  * STATICS
--  * UNITS
--  * GROUPS
--  * CLIENTS
--  * AIRBASES
--  * PLAYERSJOINED
--  * PLAYERS
--  * CARGOS
--  * STORAGES (DCS warehouses)
--
-- On top, for internal MOOSE administration purposes, the DATABASE administers the Unit and Group TEMPLATES as defined within the Mission Editor.
--
-- The singleton object **_DATABASE** is automatically created by MOOSE, that administers all objects within the mission.
-- Moose refers to **_DATABASE** within the framework extensively, but you can also refer to the _DATABASE object within your missions if required.
