A command that can quickly filter a list of objects based on selected parameters would be nice, similar to the `countSide` command except returning a new array. There are many cases where people want to filter an array of objects with constant parameters, so using the `select {}` command is a huge waste of performance when the array is large. Some examples: ``` _arrayOfObjs selectObjectClasses [ ["class1", "class2", ...], (exactMatch = false)]; ``` with `exactMatch`, class inheritance is ignored and only exact `typeOf` matches are returned. ``` _arrayOfObjs selectObjectSides [east, west]; ``` I'll try to update this list if I come up with more common "static" filters. These commands can be used together with such commands as `allObjects`, `units`, `allUnits`, `vehicles`, etc.
