safeDest()

Overview

Determine if, based on the script player's current knowledge of the map, whether a specific map location is safe or not.

Because this function is based on knowledge of the map, any enemy droids/structures that are in the fog of war (or otherwise not visible to your sensors - eg. ECM in effect) will not be checked, so use this with care. In other words, what looks like a safe place to your sensors might be a very dangerous place.

Syntax

var returnValue = safeDest(x,y);

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Mandatory	Description
x	Number		The x co-ordinate of the position on the map to check
y	Number		The y co-ordinate of the position on the map to check

Return value

Value	Type	Description
true	Boolean	The position appears safe, according to your sensors.
false	Boolean	The position is not safe.

Example

// assuming "oil" is a feature object representing an oil resource...
if (safeDest(oil.x,oil.y)) {
  // build oil derrick
}
