Notes
- When applied to a unit, this returns the variable name that was assigned to the unit in the editor. For example, if you have created a playable unit with the name 'thePlayer' then you can use 'str player' to return "thePlayer" ; Sbsmac
- When applied to a string, places quotes around it. If it also contains quotes, be careful in how you use it; e.g. including it as part of a string and then compiling it as code won't work. MaHuJa 06:58, 26 April 2012 (CEST)
