.give all mobile

[Caydr]

Can we have an extension to the .give all command? What I'd like it to do is give all the units with a movement speed which is greater than 0.

Thanks

You could setup a LuaUI call that generated
a ".give" command for all mobile units. The
problem would be spacing them (although
that is possible too)

Spacing isn't really a problem, they're mobile :)

Here's the code ... just stick it in gui.lua and type
the following into the console: /luaui givemobile

P.S You'll want to start with a gui.lua that is already
known to work. LuaUI requires a valid LayoutButtons()
function to work (it is the only required call-in).

Code: Select all

function ConfigureLayout(command)
  if (command == "givemobile") then
    GiveMobile()
  end
end

Code: Select all

function GiveMobile()
  Spring.SendCommands({"say .cheat 1"}) -- enable cheating
  for udid,ud in pairs(UnitDefs) do
    if (ud and ud.canMove and (ud.speed > 0)) then
      Spring.SendCommands({"say .give " .. ud.name}) 
    end
  end  
end

Note that it's fairly easy to make little adjustments to this code
(especially when you can use /luaui reload to "recompile" it on
the fly, I've got "luaui reload" bound to Meta+r). One thing that
I did notice is that you may want yet another level of control with
respect to water based units. Checking against ud.minWaterDepth
should do the trick.

That's very interesting, I'll give that a shot. It'll save me the time of nagging you about the ".give water" and ".give air" commands too
