===== Drone Training Script =====

Here's an example of a chunky script that uses entities to provide a basic single player game with multiple levels.

First off we've got a basic building script file that's used to provide an access point for the player where they can start the minigame:
<code>
$kPlayGamePlinthBuildingType = 5

Event( "OSDSelect", "GameOSD:PlaySingle" )
{
	$gPlayerKey[DroneGameMode] = 1
	// Play game music
	*playmusic %PLAYER% http://yyy.com/musicfile.mp3
	*crowspawn %PLAYER% 128 128
	Sleep( 5 )
	
	*gocrow %PLAYER%
	*texteffect %PLAYER%,1,First wave incoming! Ready Up!
	Sleep( 20 )
	CustomEvent( "StartGame" )		// Defined in LevelSpawner.mit
}



Event( "AccessBuilding", "$kPlayGamePlinthBuildingType" )
{
	osdcreate(OSDBUILDING,"GameOSD", "" ) 
	osdadd(EXITBUTTON, 100, 80, 400, 35, "PlaySingle", "Example Single Player Game" )	
	osdactivate() 

}
</code>

All pretty standard so far. Now we get on to the good stuff.. \\

//   Here we're definining a 'kindof' struct thats used to specify the details of each level
//   Each row in our table has 7 values, and we store that in a constant $kSizeOfWavesStruct
//   Each row corresponds to a 'level' in the game, so if we want to access the values for level 3
