How to get moveto-coordinates of a unit at the time of exiting first hex
Hello,
Is it possible in WML or rather with Lua, to get the coordinate information of where a unit is going after it's been ordered to move by the player (i.e. the would-be location where the moveto event would fire), at the time when the unit is just exiting its first hex?
The reason for this is that I need to kill the unit in the "exit hex" event, but I need the x,y information of where it was planning to go to.
I tried to check if maybe the unit.goto_x and unit.goto_y variables would be set to the selected value, but I'm afraid not, that won't work. (they stay on -999). However, I'm sure that by the time the unit is exiting the hex, the information of the selected goal must be stored by the game somewhere. So does anyone know if it's possible to get it with lua or something?
Thanks very much!
