GetFirstObjectInArea can only mean whole area?

ForSerious

I thought that you could put a trigger as the object in GetFirstObjectInArea and it would treat the area defined by the trigger as the area… Am I just being too hopeful? I think I told someone else they could do this not long ago, and well, I seem to be wrong. It's treating area as the whole area.

Or does it just not work when I put OBJECT_SELF in, in an OnHearbeat script, that's on a trigger?

Try this one:

object GetFirstInPersistentObject(
    object oPersistentObject = OBJECT_SELF,
    int nResidentObjectType = OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE,
    int nPersistentZone = PERSISTENT_ZONE_ACTIVE
);

That is exactly what I was looking for! I would have never guessed by the name though.
