Yes.
You have currently selected unit on menu click.
Clicking "attack" let's you select a target.
Save / store these now.
DoAttack( unitCur, unitSelected )
might be easier to send an event.
Pseudo: # event type as string
# then keyword list, args can be different between types.
send_event( type="attack",
attacker=curSelectedUnit() , target=clickedUnit(), weapon="primary" )
Another option is define menu , set function reference:
# func Menu.additem=
Class Menu()
AddItem( desc, func )
# didn't use target as args, keeping logic outside menu
M.addItem( "attack" , game.handleAttack() )
# game class containing units. Def func=
Game.handleAttack( self )
Attacker= self.curUnit()
Defender=self.selectedUnit()
self.damage(defender)
