+    //      to the nearest FPS of the parent Group, for use in setting
+    //      up the big switch.
+    // GetSubObject - get the sub-object which is associated with this

+    // GetGenID - every created object has a unique number to it. Used
+    //      by the render engine.
+    // Get/SetUserName - a storable name, for users of the API
