Lua UnitDefs

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):
