Conditions
Conditions are written as simple expressions. Example:
objectBrain * (1 - objectDestructable)
Object must be indestructible AI character (theoretical example, no such object exists in unmodded game).
Supported conditions:
Condition | For Type | Description |
---|---|---|
objectBrain | Object | Object with simulation "soldier" or "UAVpilot" |
objectControllable | Object | Object with simulation "soldier" |
objectAgent | Object | Object with non-empty agentTasks[], i.e., animals |
objectVehicle | Object | Vehicle which can be boarded |
objectSimulated | Object | Object which is simulated (e.g., falls down when in the air) |
objectDestructable | Object | Indestructible object, i.e., when destrType config property set not DestructNo |
logicModule | Logic | Logic which is a module (vehicleClass config property is "Modules") |
