unit.flying does not appear.

Units that fly, according to [movetype] flying = yes [/movetype], should have a unit.flying variable.
For me, in this circumstance, it does not appear. The code below triggers with gryphons, bats, gliders.
And "unit.flying" never appears.

Code: Select all

local function add_object(unit)
    if not unit.flying then
        wesnoth.interface.add_chat_message("not flying "..wesnoth.as_text(unit.flying))
    end
end

on_event("recruit, recall", function (ctx)
	local unit = wesnoth.get_unit(ctx.x1, ctx.y1)
	if unit then
		add_object(unit)
	end
end)

I figured it. OUT.

YOU MUST ACCESS unit.__cfg.flying INSTEAD OF unit.flying
CHECK WITH unit.__cfg.flying == true. BECAUSE unit.flying WON'T BE REAL

Are you using version 1.18.x? If I recall correctly, unit.flying was added in 1.19.x.

I think you're right. I though for sure OP would need to use unit.__cfg, but I tested it (on 1.19) and it worked for me.
