Notes

Returns 'BOOL' if the object does'nt exists. For example in multiplayer when a object is removed alive will return 'BOOL' if a new player join after the object were destroyed. -- If you're determining whether a unit is still viable, you might also want to look at canMove, canFire and canStand. nomdeplume 12:45, 16 November 2009 (CET)
