Instruct a droid to "scout" to a new location. |
Availability
Warzone 3.1 Beta 1 and above.
Example
Code Block | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
// scout to specific location (assuming droid can get there)
orderDroidLoc(myDroid,DORDER_SCOUT,startPositions[me].x,startPositions[me].y);
// scout to specific object (assuming droid can get there)
orderDroidObj(myDroid,DORDER_SCOUT,gameObject); |
Notes
The droid's current order can be determined from it's .order
property. For more infomration see Droid object.
This is very similar to DORDER_MOVE, however with DORDER_SCOUT the droid will also attack nearby enemy targets while its travelling.
If the droid can't reach the location you've specified due to terrain obstacles, it won't move.
