Question About MissionCleanup.add(%obj)

What does MissionCleanup.add(%obj) do for an object?
If I destroy a turret, how do I properly dispose of it if I added it to the group without a delete?
I am trying to "properly" create/destroy turrets in the game. Right now I have a function that will create turrets at every spawn point within a SimGroup. I have another function that will delete every turret. These functions allow me to test script creation of turrets. However, how do I properly use MissionCleanup.add. If I use this function during the creation it will crash the engine when I do a delete.
Thanks,
Frank

If you manually delete an object afaik it will get removed from any SimGroup/SimSet that it is a member of automatically.

MissionCleanup is a SimGroup that pretty much any object you create during a mission should be added to. When the mission ends every object in this group will be deleted automatically so you don't end up with objects hanging around from mission to mission.If you manually delete an object afaik it will get removed from any SimGroup/SimSet that it is a member of automatically.
