DORDER_DESTRUCT

Overview

Instruct a droid to self-destruct!

Availability

 Requires backport.dorder.js and backport.orderDroid.js.

This isn't a standard feature of the JS API, however it's a constant used by the game engine so it's recognised by Warzone from at least 3.1 Beta 1 onwards.

Example

// self-destruct
orderDroid(myDroid,DORDER_DESTRUCT);

Notes

The droid's current order can be determined from it's .order property. For more infomration see Droid object.

This order makes your droid self-destruct after a short delay, similar to if it was destroyed by an enemy droid. If the droid is a DROID_PERSON then the droid will actually burn before being destroyed.

After self-destructing the droid will be removed from the map and I assume that an eventDestroyed() will be triggered when this happens.
