| Syntax: | multiple Controller.isTargetDetected(Class self , Object Target , enum detectionType1, enum detectionType2, enum detectionType3 ...) | ||
| Description: | Returns multiple entries that define a number of values if the target is detected by the Unit or group associated with the controller.
Values returned are: boolean detected, -- boolean value if the target is detected boolean visible, -- boolean value if target is visible by line of sight ModelTime lastTime, -- the last model time that the target was detected boolean type, -- if the type of target is known boolean distance, -- if distance to the target is known Vec3 lastPos, -- last known position of the target Vec3 lastVel -- last know velocity vector of the target Function is available at the unit level for all unit types. When used with a Group Controller the function will return expected values only with Ground and Ship groups.

| Return Value: | multiple | ||
| Return Example: | |||
| Examples: | The following returns al of the entries:
local detected , visible , lastTime , type , distance , lastPos , lastVel = uCon:isTargetDetected(target) To output a list of how the aircraft is detecting the target as a message: local con = Unit.getController(Unit.getByName('whatever'))
local target = Unit.getByName('target')
local m = {}
for det, enum in pairs(Controller.Detection) do
m[#m+1] = det .. " : "
m[#m+1] = tostring(con:isTargetDetected(target, enum))
m[#m+1] = "\n"
end
trigger.action.outText(table.concat(m), 20, true)
