Can You Get Unit Description via Script?

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

This is a very simple question, but how would you get a Unit's Description (You know, the one set in the Editor below the Init field) via a script? I've looked through the commands briefly and searched through Google and the BI Forum's Search Engine and I couldn't find anything related to it... Thanks.

Do you want to change the equipment the unit starts with?

If yes, LEA Loadouts mod will do that for you..

No, I just want to get a unit's description for a script I'm making to create a list of units, sorted by side, then faction, then group, then group ID and display their name along with their description set within the editor.

I've already used a work-around though, instead using a units Name field for the description, and discarding anything after the first underscore so you can have multiple units with the same description.

But BI, come one, first you didn't add a way to delete/change Diary Records, now you didn't add a command to access a unit's description? Small things can take away so much functionality... What a shame. Let's hope for Arma 3! :)
