Currently selected units?
« on: 17 Sep 2003, 14:31:34 »
I'm not sure if this is advanced or not, but I can't figure this one out. Is there a way so check units that are currently selected by the player? you know, you have a squad and you can select them with F#.. so is there a global array where this can be seen or something else?

Look at this:

Code: [Select]
onMapSingleClick command
Operand types:
    command: String
Compatibility:
    Version 1.85 required.
Type of returned value:
    Nothing
Description:
    Define action performed when user clicks in map. Command receives:
   
    _pos array position
    _units array selected units
    _shift,_alt bool key state
   
    If click is processed, command should return true.

Example:
    onMapSingleClick {"SoldierWB" createUnit [_pos,group player];true}


_units is the one you're asking for

So basically the array you're talking about exists.

But i'm not sure, wether it's possible to access those selected
units without summit special like the onMapSingleClick.
(haven't tried or needed that yet).

yes, I also noticed that _units array in OnMapSingleClick[], that's where I got this idea that there might be an array in somewhere  ::)

if someone knows, then please let me know! I'd really appreciate  that..
