Notes

Currently, the component type constants aren't exposed to JS API (as of WZ 3.1.0 release). As such, you need to define them manually:

ConstantValueNotes
COMP_UNKNOWN0Not currently used as far as I can tell
COMP_BODY1Bodies
COMP_BRAIN2Command turrets
COMP_PROPULSION3Propulsions
COMP_REPAIRUNIT4Repair turrets
COMP_ECM5ECM turrets
COMP_SENSOR6Sensor / Radar turrets
COMP_CONSTRUCT7Construction turrets
COMP_WEAPON8Weapon turrets

Example

const COMP_PROPULSION = 3; 

if (componentAvailable(COMP_PROPULSION, "hover01")) {
	// we can build hovercraft!
}
