A location is like an extender type of marker.

  • Locations have a name, a 3D position, an 2D area, and an orientation.
  • They have a non-scaling map representation (icon &/or text, depending on class).
  • They can be attached to objects, with all of the location's relevant properties automatically updating if the object moves (frequency unknown).
  • They can use setVariable and getVariable.
  • Existing locations on a wrp can not be changed using the location script commands, but they can be found and read.
