	~~====Arrays may contain objects====~~
	Prior to this version of the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>, arrays could not contain objects, and the first reference to an array you declared to contain objects would fail. For example, as of <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var> 7.9, references to the following array declaration are legal (and this is true for all object classes):
	~~<p class="code">%x is object stringlist array(5) </p>~~
