    Object inside or outside?

    Hopefully I'm posting in the right place, but I'm looking for a way to tell if a game object (ie, a mining/herb node) is counted as being "inside" (ie, in a cave/slightly greyed on minimap).

    Maybe I'm missing something really simple such as a map the node is located on, or if there's some special minimap/tracking field I've missed, but if anyone who's used something along these lines could provide a point in the right direction that'd be great.

    See that is a very interesting question!
    I never really thought about this, but i is certainly something that would be interesting to know.

    That looks like what I'm after, or at least seems to be a good indication where (flag & 0x3) == underground of some description.

    Out of curiosity (and for future reference, too), what offsets are those? I couldn't seem to find anything relevant matching those two hex values.

    Lua - IsOutdoors, IsIndoors.

    Designed for units obviously but the logic it uses probably works on GOs too. Try it.

    Thanks. Tht returns 1 if true and 0 if not. Now I need to find a way to get the return values from lua_dostring()

    Already been covered. Do a search, and don't ask again unless you want to piss off the moderators (and me).

    The question was how Kynox found the flags info. Its not already been covered. Feel free to show a search that proves me wrong.

    Meanwhile, problem handled by blacklisting. There are actually very few underground nodes so generating a permanent blacklist is as reasonable option.

    " Now I need to find a way to get the return values from lua_dostring()"

    Was referring to that.

    Also, just reverse those two functions. Problem solved.
