-Vectors is a new data type that simplifies passing values between commands.
-Many commands require a "set" of data. For example, to pass the location of an object on a map, the x, y, and z-coordinates are required.
-Consider the `GetObjPosition` command.  assume you want to obtain the position of a specific unit and pass it to a different unit for targeting purposes. Without vectors, the command pair would be
-<code PRPL>
-   GetObjPosition("Enemy1" true) ->ePosZ ->ePosy ->ePosZ
-   # intermediate operations that may adjust or necessitate the values of x, y, or x
-   SetUnitSpecifiedTarget(self <-ePosZ <-ePosy <-ePosZ)
-</code>
-With vectors, the command is somewhat simplified.
-<code PRPL>
-   GetObjPosition("Enemy1" true) ->ePos
-   # intermediate operations that may adjust or necessitate the values of x, y, or x
-   SetUnitSpecifiedTarget(self <-ePos)
-</code>
-This becomes more meaningful for complex commands that may necessitate multiple sets of paired elements, such as:
-<code PRPL>
-	BallisticArcLateral(<-armPos <-projSpeed <-target <-projMaxHeight) ->travelTime ->gravity ->fireVel
-</code>
