Message:

removed the 'bAddRef' argument from StrongPtr's constructor. it was a bad hack and shouldn't be used. in fact, it was only used to avoid recursive dependencies if one of the four base objects (Namespace, Level, Gametype, Scene) referenced itself with a StrongPtr.
instead of the 'bAddRef'-hack BaseObject now stores the references in a new construct called StrongOrWeakPtr which can either store the reference in a StrongPtr (like it did before) or in a WeakPtr (which is a cleaner alternative to 'bAddRef=true')
