+-- # The PATHLINE Concept
+-- 
+-- List of points defining a path from A to B. The pathline can consist of multiple points. Each point holds the information of its position, the surface type, the land height
+-- and the water depth (if over sea).
+-- 
+-- Line drawings created in the mission editor are automatically registered as pathlines and stored in the MOOSE database.
+-- They can be accessed with the @{#PATHLINE.FindByName) function.
+-- 
+-- # Constructor
+-- 
+-- The @{PATHLINE.New) function creates a new PATHLINE object. This does not hold any points. Points can be added with the @{#PATHLINE.AddPointFromVec2} and @{#PATHLINE.AddPointFromVec3}
+-- 
+-- For a given table of 2D or 3D positions, a new PATHLINE object can be created with the @{#PATHLINE.NewFromVec2Array} or @{#PATHLINE.NewFromVec3Array}, respectively.
+-- 
+-- # Line Drawings
+-- 
+-- The most convenient way to create a pathline is the draw panel feature in the DCS mission editor. You can select "Line" and then "Segments", "Segment" or "Free" to draw your lines.
+-- These line drawings are then automatically added to the MOOSE database as PATHLINE objects and can be retrieved with the @{#PATHLINE.FindByName) function, where the name is the one
+-- you specify in the draw panel.
+-- 
+-- # Mark on F10 map
+-- 
+-- The ponints of the PATHLINE can be marked on the F10 map with the @{#PATHLINE.MarkPoints}(`true`) function. The mark points contain information of the surface type, land height and 
+-- water depth.

+-- To remove the marks, use @{#PATHLINE.MarkPoints}(`false`).

+--
+-- # The WEAPON Concept
+-- 
+-- The WEAPON class offers an easy-to-use wrapper interface to all DCS API functions.
+-- 
+-- Probably, the most striking highlight is that the position of the weapon can be tracked and its impact position can be determined, which is not
+-- possible with the native DCS scripting engine functions.
+--
+-- **Note** that this wrapper class is different from most others as weapon objects cannot be found with a DCS API function like `getByName()`.
+-- They can only be found in DCS events like the "Shot" event, where the weapon object is contained in the event data.
+-- 
+-- # Tracking
+-- 
+-- The status of the weapon can be tracked with the @{#WEAPON.StartTrack} function. This function will try to determin the position of the weapon in (normally) relatively
+-- small time steps. The time step can be set via the @{#WEAPON.SetTimeStepTrack} function and is by default set to 0.01 seconds.
+-- 
+-- Once the position cannot be retrieved any more, the weapon has impacted (or was destroyed otherwise) and the last known position is safed as the impact point.
+-- The impact point can be accessed with the @{#WEAPON.GetImpactVec3} or @{#WEAPON.GetImpactCoordinate} functions.
+-- 
+-- ## Impact Point Marking
+-- 
+-- You can mark the impact point on the F10 map with @{#WEAPON.SetMarkImpact}.
+-- 
+-- You can also trigger coloured smoke at the impact point via @{#WEAPON.SetSmokeImpact}.
+-- 
+-- ## Callback functions
+-- 
+-- It is possible to define functions that are called during the tracking of the weapon and upon impact, which help you to customize further actions.
+-- 
+-- ### Callback on Impact
+-- 
+-- The function called on impact can be set with @{#WEAPON.SetFuncImpact}
+-- 
+-- ### Callback when Tracking
+-- 
+-- The function called each time the weapon status is tracked can be set with @{#WEAPON.SetFuncTrack}
+-- 
+-- # Target
+-- 
+-- If the weapon has a specific target, you can get it with the @{#WEAPON.GetTarget} function. Note that the object, which is returned can vary. Normally, it is a UNIT 
+-- but it could also be a STATIC object.
+-- 
+-- Also note that the weapon does not always have a target, it can loose a target and re-aquire it and the target might change to another unit.
+-- 
+-- You can get the target name with the @{#WEAPON.GetTargetName} function.
+-- 
+-- The distance to the target is returned by the @{#WEAPON.GetTargetDistance} function.
+-- 
+-- # Category
+-- 
+-- The category (bomb, rocket, missile, shell, torpedo) of the weapon can be retrieved with the @{#WEAPON.GetCategory} function.
+-- 
+-- You can check if the weapon is a 
+-- 
+-- * bomb with @{#WEAPON.IsBomb}
+-- * rocket with @{#WEAPON.IsRocket}
+-- * missile with @{#WEAPON.IsMissile}
+-- * shell with @{#WEAPON.IsShell}
+-- * torpedo with @{#WEAPON.IsTorpedo}
+-- 
+-- # Parameters
+-- 
+-- You can get various parameters of the weapon, *e.g.*
+-- 
+-- * position: @{#WEAPON.GetVec3}, @{#WEAPON.GetVec2 }, @{#WEAPON.GetCoordinate}
+-- * speed: @{#WEAPON.GetSpeed}
