How to get the Location of my Client!!!!

[Targanon]

Ok so I'm try to do this is LUA.

 

I have tried a few things ..

 

and All have failed .

I'm trying to get the location of a client unit. 
I have tried MyUnit is supposed to be the client unit I'm in.. but I keep getting an error trying to (a nil Value)
so maybe I'm a dumb person but I just don't get that 

How to return the X,Y location of a player unit.

I'm probably doing it all wrong.. 

I'm trying to learn to do this lua .. 

I've tried the Hogit wiki found a couple of things that looked promising but I get a similar error

MyLocY = MyUnit:GetCoordinate():GetVec2():GetY()                  --Get the Y Coordinate of my Unit 

MyLocX = MyUnit:GetCoordinate():GetVec2():GetX()                  --Get the X Coordinate of my Unit

Hi, here an exemple (F18 client on caucasus, at 5 seconds in mission a trigger check position and display it).

Caucasus-F18client-CheckPosTest.miz

This is from a few years ago.  This script is called when a helicopter lands for 2 seconds, and then a MANPADS team is spawned at the location.  It uses MIST to get the position and heading info -
