Type "House" is used for arbitrary objects on the map
Reviewed, NormalPublic

Description

In ArmA2/OA only houses were of config type "House", but on Stratis, it appears almost every statically placed object such as barriers or even coral reefs is of type "House" which makes object collections using e.g. nearestObjects pretty much unusuable.
