Description

Description:

Return an uniqueID of the given unit as string if it's player and empty value if it's AI. Note: while for ArmA 2 or ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead the result always contains a number, it should be always handled as an opaque string. Converting it to a Number can cause precision problems , as Number cannot accurately represent integers above 16777216 (2^24). Moreover, future game versions may provide a non-numeric value as a result.

Multiplayer:

UID string is returned only in multiplayer.
