Okay thanks TDW, time for me to get my hands on your little gem

So far I've carried out two tests:

in one of them I assigned an ObjectRemains controller to the searchlight, placing it onto guns_radars_01.zon. I made the controller to point to another object within guns_radars_01.GR2.

For the second test I tried to point to an external object, contained in a dat file I had put into the Library folder.

In both cases I used the name of the object (well, the name of its main node) as reference, and in both cases I failed miserably: after ripping off the searchlight nothing showed up in its place
