Overview

Instruct a droid to stop what it's doing.

This is particularly useful in the case of VTOLs - usually your VTOLs will keep attacking their last target until it's destroyed, the only way to stop them doing that is with DORDER_STOP.

Availability

Warzone 3.2 and above.

Backport to earlier versions with <link to follow>

Example

Tell a VTOL to stop it's attacks and then rearm itself (Warzone 3.2+)
if (isVTOL(myDroid)) {
  orderDroid(myDroid,DORDER_STOP); // stop attacking your target
  orderDroid(myDoid,DORDER_REARM); // go rearm yourself and then wait for next command
}
Tell a VTOL to stop it's attacks by moving it to your base
// this is a workaround for Warzone 3.1
if (isVTOL(myDroid)) {
  orderDroidLoc(myDroid,DORDER_MOVE,startPositions[me].x,startPositions[me].y);
}
