| Returns the diameter of bounding sphere of the object of given type in meters. Size returned is usually bigger than the biggest size of the object along any of the axes. For example if object is 10 x 4 x 5 the [[sizeOf]] value returned expected to be around 10. If you need to estimate the size of the object more precisely, use [[boundingBox]] or [[boundingBoxReal]].

Description

Description:
Returns the diameter of bounding sphere of the object of given classname in meters. Size returned is usually bigger than the biggest size of the object along any of the axes. For example if object is 10 x 4 x 5 the sizeOf value returned expected to be around 10. If you need to estimate the size of the object more precisely, use boundingBox or boundingBoxReal.

At least one object of the given classname has to be present in the current mission otherwise zero will be returned
