Pass 'Unit under cursor' and location to 'Execute Script' modules. #191

... So that people can easily run one-off custom code using a location on map or a unit on the map by dropping one of these modules on it. Right now it's executed without passing those parameters along.

I am trying to use it, but for example "this allowDamage false;" placed with execute code placed on vehicle is not working, how should I use it ?

It's passed the same way it's passed to the custom modules. Use '_this select 0' to access the position of the dropped module, or '_this select 1' to access the unit under the cursor. You should always check that the unit under the cursor isn't null before using it (since the module might not be dropped on a unit).
