## Exact signature

```text
point Unit::GetUnexploredPoint(int)

## Description

Returns a random unexplored point near the unit, or the point (-1, -1) when it finds none.

## Usage notes

With argument -1 the search window is about four times a unit field (probably its sight), between 512 and 3000 map units square. It can return (-1, -1) while much of the map is still unexplored. The game uses it in the Explore order.

The member is called on an object. Its receiver is not repeated among this signature’s arguments.
