This page is a part of the Lua and UI Reference (Civ5).

Plots apparently have an equality operator handler, i.e. two variables of plot type can be compared directly without having to compare both their X and Y coordinates.

Instance Methods

Methods are functions that belong to an object. Instance methods are invoked through a colon, as in caller:SomeMethod(<args>), where caller is an instance of Plot.
A colon implictly passes the caller object as the first argument. That is, the former call is equivalent to this one: caller.SomeMethod(caller, <args>)
