If you run deleteVehicle for every playable soldier, the AI units will be removed. 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 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"}
