IsChild - Location

Member of: Location Script

Returns if the other location is a child of this one. If they are the same location, the function returns false.

Syntax

bool Function IsChild(Location akOther) native

Parameters

• akOther: The other location to look at.

Return Value

Returns if the other location is a child of this one.

Examples

; Is my house a child of the Batooine location?
if (BatooineProperty.IsChild(MyHouseProperty))
  Debug.Trace("My house is a child of the Batooine location")
endIf

Notes

• This function will return true if the TamrielLocation is the calling location, even though the Parent location set on the passed-in (akOther) location's form is not set to TamrielLocation. This is because this function checks whatever is the parent location of the parent location of the passed-in location. To better explain this: RiverwoodLocation's parent location is WhiterunHoldLocation, while WhiterunHoldLocation's parent is TamrielLocation. This function will return true for either of them for RiverwoodLocation. So, if you want to know if a particular is a parent, do not use Tamriel unless you really want to know if Tamriel is the parent.
