    Name = "#1_Brandhaus_01_SB1"

    hResult, hData = EEPStructureGetFire(Name)
                

• Argument is the Lua name of the structure as string. The significant differences are the preceding hash sign and ID. These are sufficient as a Lua name and everything that follows may be omitted.

    EEPStructureAnimateAxis("#1_Windmill","Rotor", 1000)
                

• First argument is the Lua name of the structure as string. The significant differences are the preceding hash sign and ID. These are sufficient as a Lua name and everything that follows may be omitted.
• Second argument is the entire name of the axis as a string.
• The third argument is the (positive or negative) number of steps the axis shall move. A value of 1000 bzw. -1000 starts an endless motion if the model was built for it (e.g. sails of a windmill). A value of 0 stops any motion.
• Return value is true if the targeted structure and the targeted axis exist, else false.

    hResult, Status = EEPStructureIsAxisAnimate("#1","Bridge") 
    if Status > 0 then 
        print( "The turntable is moving." )
    end
                

• First argument is the Lua name of the structure as string. The significant differences are the preceding hash sign and ID. These are sufficient as a Lua name and everything that follows may be omitted.
• Second argument is the entire name of the axis as a string.
• First return value is true if the targeted structure and the targeted axis exist, else false.
• Second return value is:
  • 0 = the axis is not moving.
  • 1 = the axis is moving in an infinite loop.
  • 2 = the axis is moving but will come to rest in finite time.

    EEPStructureSetAxis("#1_Turntable", "Bridge", 50)
                

• First argument is the Lua name of the structure as string. The significant differences are the preceding hash sign and ID. These are sufficient as a Lua name and everything that follows may be omitted.
• Second argument is the entire name of the axis as a string.
• Third argument is the new position of the specified axis.
• Return value is true if the targeted structure and the targeted axis exist, else false.

    hResult, hData = EEPStructureGetAxis("#1_Turntable","Bridge")
                

• First argument is the Lua name of the structure as string. The significant differences are the preceding hash sign and ID. These are sufficient as a Lua name and everything that follows may be omitted.
• Second argument is the entire name of the axis as a string.
• First return value is true if the targeted structure and the targeted axis exist, else false.
• Second return value is the current position of the specified axis.

    EEPStructureSetPosition("#1_Strawball", 1, 2, 3)
                

• First argument is the Lua name of the structure as string. The significant differences are the preceding hash sign and ID. These are sufficient as a Lua name and everything that follows may be omitted.
• Second argument is the new x position of the structure.
• Third argument is the new y position of the structure.
• Fourth argument is the new z position of the structure.
• Structures cannot be placed outside a layout’s boundaries.
• Return value is true if the targeted structure exists and the new position is within the layout’s boundaries, else false.
• Function can also be used for landscape elements because both, structures and landscape elements, share a common set of IDs.

• Third return value is the y position of the structure.
• Fourth return value is the z position of the structure.

    EEPStructureSetRotation("#1_Strawball", 0, 0, 25)
                

• First argument is the Lua name of the structure as string. The significant differences are the preceding hash sign and ID. These are sufficient as a Lua name and everything that follows may be omitted.
• Second argument is the new x rotation of the structure.
• Third argument is the new y rotation of the structure.
