Lua UnitDefs

2009-08-25T19:23:53Z

Very bad soldier:

The UnitDefs[] table holds all information about the units used in the mod.
Note: Its entries are metatables, so you can't use the pairs() iterator on them, use this instead:

for id,unitDef in pairs(UnitDefs) do
for name,param in unitDef:pairs() do
Spring.Echo(name,param)
end
end

Very usefull is UnitDefs[i]["customParams"], since you can access any custom fbi param with it and use it in your lua scripts.

So because the UnitDefs tables are very large, I simple print here an example of it (BA5.8 core commander):
