Counter-intuitive FAsserts?

[Tholal]

When debugging, I've run into a number of seemingly counter-intuitive FAsserts. For example, in the function AI_anyAttack, there is the following code right after variable declaration.


FAssert(canMove());


Why would you want to throw an assert error if the unit can move? Wouldn't it have to move in order to make an attack? Am I completely misunderstanding what this code is trying to do?

An assert displays an error if the expression is false, in this case - if the unit cannot move.

Oh. Well that changes things a bit. Thanks!
