I'll update the page to indicate it is 'Pro Only' at the moment.

One thing I am doing is expanding the function details; they will be more consistent in what they show.
Also I am putting in the actual parameters that are valid for the function rather than relying on the 'selector'. I have found that the 'Selector' is often too broad and doesn't indicated additional (or not valid) items.
This also helps in that you don't need to jump back and forth between the command and the selector pages.lua doc
Example below

ReferencePointSelector
Reference point selector.

To select reference point(s), specify either

name and side, to select a reference pointname belonging toside [name AND side if possible] or
guid, if the unique ID of the reference point is known [preferred] or
area, table of reference points (name or guid)

GUID method takes precedence over name/side if both present.

ReferencePointSelector
Reference point selector.

To select reference point(s), specify either
name and side, to select a reference point name belonging to side or
guid, if the unique ID of the reference point is known [preferred] or
area, table of reference points (name or guid) - valid for certain functions, such as GetReferencePoints().

GUID method takes precedence over name/side if both present.
In cases where side is not know by context, then both guid and side may be required, such as DeleteReferencePoint().

The documentation leads one to believe TankerMissionList accepts names or guids, such as
TankerMissionList= {'support mission1','support mission2'}; is valid when it is not. At present it must be the mission guid.
ie
TankerMissionList= {'ABCDEF-0000000000123','ABCDEF-0000000000124'};

The code that looks up and the array entry text is fine (it checks both name or guid successfully) and returns the mission, however the outer call also does a check upon return and it only validates/compares checks on the guid property vs the entry text. The later seems to not know the former already did the validation for it, so other then the null check the rest of the extra checks causes the issue (and probably no longer needs to be there).

So either the docs need clarity, or the code eyeballed and tweaked to work as expected and believe already desired.
