Spatial->Visual - are objects you can see.

Mesh an object that is a 3D model imported from a Collada (.dae) file
Entity an object that is an animated 3D model imported from a Collada (.dae) file

Other spatial objects

Containers->Composite - for grouping objects. A composite object is used as the parent to a group of objects. The child objects act as a group and move and change together with the composite parent object. You must assign an object as a child of a composite to make it a part of the group. You do that in the PropertyEditor. Select the object you want to add to a composite, group Click the button labeled Change Parent. You will then choose the parent Composite object from a list.
CollisionTrigger - sends a message when an object collides with it - needs to be wired to things to be useful
Gui->GuiKeyboard - displays a keyboard to type on - needs to be wired to things to be useful
