I can set a unit out of comms using :

This works and the unit is out of comms.

Is there a way to use Lua to query if a unit is outofcomms?

I've tried

This returns a bunch of errors including "unable to load one or more of the requested types.".

hmmm. I figured it would be in the unit wrapper some where but I don't see it.

local a = ScenEdit_GetUnit({side="OPFOR", unitname="USS Barry"})
for k,v in pairs(a.fields) do
if string.find(k,'property_') ~= nil then
local t = string.find(v," , ") -- location of first ,
print("\r\n[object] = " .. string.sub(v,2,t-1) ) -- property name
print( a[string.sub(v,2,t-1)] ) -- value of property
end
end

that will return all kinds of stuff, but I don't see anything about comms. Sometimes things are in a table and not directly accessible like you tried to do, but in this case it just looks like it doesn't exist.

Looks like I never added anything to show the state of Comms Network

Cool, thanks for the info guys. I'll bust my through an alternate method.
