Element

An element is a generic class that can represent almost all in-game items. The element types representing in-game entities are:
- Players
- Vehicles
- Objects
- Pickups
- Markers
- Collision shapes
- Blips
- Radar areas
- Teams
- Spawnpoints
- Server console
- Remote admins
Any other element type can be created as an abstract element, not referring to in-game entities. For example, resource and map elements are created to group entities they create as their children.
Elements share common functions such as type and list retrieval, a destroy operation to remove both the element and the game entity it is linked to (except for client elements, which can't be destroyed)...
All elements are stored internally in a "tree" structure, and as such every element has a parent element, be it the root element, a map or another element. This is purely for declaring the scope of function calls.
