I 126 in the version I was using these functions and can help me to use them with the version 153

Group and unit names are now saved in the mission file as "dict keys" for localization purposes. You can use env.getValueDictByKey() to return the actual value. Basically anything that can be used for localization in multiple languages is given a unique value. Within the mission is a lookup table in different languages that defines what the players sees. As a result you don't need to have 6 different versions of the mission created for the different languages.

 

if group.name and env.getValueDictByKey(group.name) == groupName then

you can have full script?
