Usage

This function is primarily designed for Per frame handler style triggers, checking if players are within a marker radius. It can be used to check for individual AI units in an array, but not via groups.

Example:

[{
    params ["_args", "_handle"];
    _args params [["_A", false]];

    private _players = [true] call MFUNC(players);

    if (!_A) then {
        if ([_players, "MyMarker"] call MFUNC(inArea)) then {
            _args set [0, true];
        };
    };
}, 3] call CBA_fnc_addPerFrameHandler;

Alternate Example:

private _groupUnits = units MyGroup;
private _inArea = [_groupUnits, "MyMarker"] call MFUNC(inArea);

if (_inArea) then {};
