Determine if a droid object is a transporter.

 

Notes

The code snippet below adds an isTransporter() function that returns true if the passed in object is a transport.

Code

var transportTypes = [
	DROID_TRANSPORTER,
	DROID_SUPERTRANSPORTER
]
 
// Determine if an object is a transporter
this.isTransport = (typeof enumCargo == "function")
	? function(obj) { // WZ 3.2+
		return obj.hasOwnProperty("cargoCapacity");
	  }
	: function(obj) { // WZ 3.1
		return obj.type == DROID && transportTypes.indexOf(obj.droidType) != -1;
	  }

Example

function eventAttacked(victim, attacker) {
	if ( isTransport(victim) ) {
		// do stuff specific to transport attack
	}
}
Availability 3.1 B5+

Requires:

  • Warzone 3.1 Beta 5 and above.
  • Earlier versions had problems with transporters.
