Comments:
- Since this function will not delete a player unit, a useful multiplayer application is the removal of AI created by players leaving the game.
If you run deleteVehicle for every playable soldier, the AI units will be removed.
- If unit1 is a living unit that is currently located inside a vehicle then:
deleteVehicle unit1 will result in some very strange, and unwelcome, things happening.
A safer way to delete unit1 if it is, or might be, inside a vehicle is:
unassignVehicle unit1
unit1 setPos [0,0,0]
deleteVehicle unit1
- You need have no concern over attempting to access deleted units in subsequent scripts.
The line below works just fine for units that have been deleted.
if (alive unit1) then {hint"He is alive"} else {hint"Oh no he's not"}
