ScenEdit_GetContact (table)

This function retrieves a contact details

This function is mostly similar toScenEdit_GetUnit except that it references contacts rather than units on a side.
Using a contact name can cause confusion in what contact details would be returned as the name can change over time.
Use ScenEdit_GetContacts() to get the side's contacts and use the GUID of the desired contact from there.

Parameters

• table {} The contact must be defined by a side (that knows the contact) and contact GUID/name for that side.
  • side = string The side to find the the contact on; the contact owner
  • unitname = string The name of the contact
  • guid = string The GUID of the contact

Returns

Contact A contact wrapper if found or nil otherwise.
