- To return the name of the unit that was given in the editor's "name" field, call up the unit's object with a format statement:
Example:
In the editor, create the following:- an empty vehicle named "car1"
- a unit named "jack", with this init line: "this moveInDriver car1"
- a radio trigger with this activation line: "hint format["%1",driver car1]"
