Remarks

This function can only get AlignmentEntity objects that are connected to the alignment. Connected AlignmentEntity objects have stations, super elevations, etc. For example, if you create an alignment which has 3 entities, entity1 and entity2 are connected, but entity3 is disconnected, the function result would be:

1ent = entityCollection.GetEntityByOrder(0);  // ent = entity1
2ent = entityCollection.GetEntityByOrder(1);  // ent = entity2
3ent = entityCollection.GetEntityByOrder(2);  // ArgumentException, entity not found
