GetObjectName

Parameters

objectId

integer

comment

Returns localized value for field "name" for the given object type ID (unit, item, ability). In WorldEdit this is "Text - Name".

If the object ID is invalid, returns literal Default string in any locale.

Example (Lua): GetObjectName( FourCC("hfoo") ) --> "Footman"

note

See: UnitId2String.

pure

This function is pure. For the same values passed to it, it will always return the same value.

async

This function is asynchronous. The values it returns are not guaranteed to be the same for each player. If you attempt to use it in an synchronous manner it may cause a desync.

bug

Do not use this in a global initialisation (on map init) as it crashes the game there.
