<fakeDroid>

Fake Droid object

If the factory is producing a droid, an fake droid object will be returned describing the properties of that droid.

You cannot use this droid object with any other functions, it's for information purposes only. Listen to eventDroidBuilt() to get the real droid object once production is complete.

null

Null

If the factory isn't producing anything, the function returns null.

Note: You can also use structureIdle() to determine if a factory is idle (not producing anything)

Example

Build a list of all current factory production activities....

var production = []; // will contain list of droids being built
 
var factoryTypes = [FACTORY, VTOL_FACTORY, CYBORG_FACTORY];
 
var fakeDroid;
 
factoryTypes.forEach( function getListOf(factories) {
	enumStruct(me, factories).forEach( function inspect(factory) {
		fakeDroid = getDroidProduction(factory);
		if (fakeDroid) production.push[fakeDroid];
	} );
} );
