Entity with soldier class but no position

[Jonathan Waller]

When Pureon was testing against qBot he hit the error TypeError: ent.position() is undefined in the block of code ​http://pastebin.com/GFzwHLCG

The full contents of interestinglog are attached.

It was about 10 minutes into a game on Oasis IV with qBot as hele. JuBot was also playing.

Since the line with the error is only run when the entity has CitizenSoldier or Super class I think it must be an engine bug for position to not be defined.

The version of qBot at the time was: ​https://github.com/quantumstate/qBot/commit/77a95a4160166cf23962d62001324f5b8c45efd7

Position doesn't have to be defined, in fact sometimes it isn't (if the entity is off-world, such as when garrisoned or not yet spawned). You should always check that an entity's position is defined before using it :)

Ok, thanks I hadn't considered garrisoning, not yet spawned entities seem a little odd but it is no problem, I have put a check into my code.
