Map action 507 for printing a message with the remaining map objects

[FS-21]

• A message will be printed with a list of alive map objects.
• If no CSFKey is mentioned (value 0) it will use the default header text Remaining:.
• HouseIndex points to any house index of the map. Multiplayer 4475-4482 & 8997 indexes are valid.
• If HouseIndex is set -1 then [AIHousesListsIndex] will be used as index of a list of countries in the [AIHousesList] section located in rulesmd.ini. If any map object match the ownership with one of the list it will be counted.
• [AITargetTypesIndex] is the index of an entry in the [AITargetTypes] section located in rulesmd.ini. Each alive map object listed here will be counted.
• If [AITargetTypesIndex] is negative this value will be evaluated as a positive index in [AITargetTypesIndex] but instead of printing a list of alive map objects and the respective count it will appear as an unique global count of all the alive map objects listed in [AITargetTypes].
• MesageDelay is the time (in minutes) of the message displayed. If the value is 0 then the duration of the message will be the default MesageDelay value specified in rulesmd.ini.
• Be aware a message can't show more than 6 lines so if [AITargetTypes] contains more than 5 map objects then the first lines won't appear.

In mycampaign.map:

[Actions]
...
ID=ActionCount,[Action1],507,4,[CSFKey],[HouseIndex],[AIHousesListsIndex],[AITargetTypesIndex],[MesageDelay],A,[ActionX]
...

--- Example 1 --- 507,4,0,5,0,-39,30,A

• No CSF entry so it will show as first line "Remaining: ".
• 5 is the index of a specific house in the map we want to count its objects.
• 0 is ignored here because we mentioned previously an unique house.
• -39 in this case is the entry 39 of [AITargetTypes] that only contain a SAM Turret defense. Because the value is negative the message won't appear the name of the structure.
• 30 means the message duration will be half minute.

If tehre are 7 SAM turrets of that house with index "5" then the result would look like "Remaining: 7".

--- Example 2 --- 507,4,0,5,0,39,0,A

• No CSF entry so it will show as first line "Remaining: ".
• 5 is the index of a specific house in the map we want to count its objects.
• 0 is ignored here because we mentioned previously an unique house.
• 39 in this case is the entry 39 of [AITargetTypes] that only contain a SAM Turret defense and a Laser defense. Because the value is positive the message will show the name of the map objects.
• 0 means MesageDelay value will be the default specified in rulesmd.ini.

If there are 7 SAM turrets & 2 Laser defenses of that house with index "5" then the result would look like: "Remaining: SAM Turret: 7 Laser Turret: 2"
