joltan 0 Posted February 28, 2003 What if I want to look for certain types of units - like all ground vehicles, all tanks, all choppers or all winged aircraft? I know there are some classes I can use instead of checking every available type, but I can't find any references on them... Any ideas where I might get lucky (didn't see anything in the references/tutorial sections at ofpec either)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whisperFFW06 0 Posted February 28, 2003 In the last official comref, you have a list of unit types at the end. I've read that you can test to which "meta-class" a unit/vehicle is (ie, Apache does inherit from class "air", class air is meta class for all flying vehicles). I don't know the way to test this, ....herrmmm... * Whisper goes hunting for answers * Whis' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mhhh... so what's the class for choppers, 'plane'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
