It seems that “World GetLocation()” function returns error for some locations which have convergence zone.

Try each of following code at attached scenario: if works properly, it returns location details for unit's position.
Note that location of Sub #4 and #5 have convergence zone.

Code: Select all

local name = "Sub #1"
local status = ScenEdit_GetUnit({name=name})
print(status.latitude)
print(status.longitude)
print(World_GetLocation({latitude=status.latitude, longitude=status.longitude}))

Code: Select all

local name = "Sub #2"
local status = ScenEdit_GetUnit({name=name})
print(status.latitude)
print(status.longitude)
print(World_GetLocation({latitude=status.latitude, longitude=status.longitude}))

Code: Select all

local name = "Sub #3"
local status = ScenEdit_GetUnit({name=name})
print(status.latitude)
print(status.longitude)
print(World_GetLocation({latitude=status.latitude, longitude=status.longitude}))

Code: Select all

local name = "Sub #4"
local status = ScenEdit_GetUnit({name=name})
print(status.latitude)
print(status.longitude)
print(World_GetLocation({latitude=status.latitude, longitude=status.longitude}))

Code: Select all

local name = "Sub #5"
local status = ScenEdit_GetUnit({name=name})
print(status.latitude)
print(status.longitude)
print(World_GetLocation({latitude=status.latitude, longitude=status.longitude}))

Sub #1 to #3 works fine, but #4 and #5 returns “Object reference not set to an instance of an object” error (Japanese: “ERROR: オブジェクト参照がオブジェクトインスタンスに設定されていません。”).

Thanks.

The CZ function was changed but someone forgot to pass thru a parameter.
Fix for next build.
