Global variables useable?

[Optimus Prime]

Are there any global variables useable?
For example "globaltime" or so which you can use in any unitscript.
I dont think so, but who knows.

#define ATAN				14	// get ordinary two-parameter atan
#define HYPOT				15	// get ordinary two-parameter hypot
#define GROUND_HEIGHT		16	// get
#define BUILD_PERCENT_LEFT	17	// get 0 = unit is built and ready, 1-100 = How much is left to build
#define YARD_OPEN			18	// set or get (change which plots we occupy when building opens and closes)

what do the weapon stuffs do? (ie can you SET them, what happens if you do, what sort of thing do you receive with a GET command? etc)

EDIT: And how does ON_ROAD work? I'm guessing that's a get only, but how is it detected by the engine?

ON_ROAD isnt

this could be used to make things go faster on a road... of course, what does Spring call a road?

[jcnossen]

nothing, its from TAK I think

[Sheekel]

There's source in there from TAK?

Did you guys get your hands on TA and TAK source?

[Dragon45]

Not source; these are .bos scripts that are easily figured out with Scriptor ( a well known utility for TA made by community...)

Oh, if only
