Description

Description:
Define action performed when user clicks in map by executing code. the code receives 3 (localised in scope) variables: When click is processed, code should ultimately return true back to the engine. If false is returned, default processing by the game engine is done. Return value of any other type (including Nothing) is an error. In such case default processing by the game engine is done, and error message may be displayed. The code is executed on every click, until the Command is
  • removed via onMapSingleClick "", or
  • replaced by onMapSingleClick "SomeOtherCommand(s)"
