Arguments:

  • unit - A unit to query (string, unitID)
  • textureIndex - (0-5) 1 for the background texture or 2 for the status bar texture (number)

Returns:

  • texture - file name for the requested texture, pass to SetTexture (string)
  • r - red color component, pass to SetVertexColor (number)
  • g - green color component, pass to SetVertexColor (number)
  • b - blue color component, pass to SetVertexColor (number)
