Targets ?????

[Popoi]

I have been looking and looking, but i can't find anything..

Is there a way to tell (programmatically) what a player or unit has targeted? I mean like with the missile lock for the Hellfire or something.

thanks all

The only way I know is to use an eventhandler.
Take a look here:

But it works only with missiles. I don't think it's possible to do the same with soldier or tanks.

you should be able to do a very time consuming and lagy way in my eyes it wouldnt be worth it but depends why you need it

the idea is to give ever soldier on the map a hit event handler and define the unit you want to find out who its targetting a name or a variable like _unit = this for example
then when a soldier is hit the EH should call a script where you cna check if _unit shot them i think ? but that might only work with a killed EH
but then if the unit did shoot the soldier then you can goto a parrt in the script if not you could exit the script

thats the only way i can think of but it will create a tremendous amount of lag in the game depends what else may be going on
