Return value

ValueTypeDescriptionGame version
undefinedUndefinedThe function always returns undefined3.1 Beta 1

Notes

This function only affects the user interface for the localhost human player, it does not affect AIs in any way. That being said, AIs should avoid using new droid templates if they don't have a HQ if possible.

Enabling or disabling the design tool automatically shows or hides (as applicable) the DESIGN reticule button:

Example

Enable or disable design tool based on presence of HQ...
function eventStructureBuilt(structure) {
  if (structure.stattype == HQ) setDesign(true);
}
function eventDestroyed(gameObj) {
  if (gameObj.type==STRUCTURE && gameObj.stattype==HQ) setDesign(false);
}
Standard game rules require that the design tool is only enabled while the player has a HQ.
Availability 3.1 B1+

Requires:

  • Warzone 3.1 Beta 1 or above
