Is there a way to detect if player views/mouses over a unit?

[l337acc 15]

Google didn't come up with anything relevant that I can find. What I want to do is create a mission that is similar to the infantry showcase where the player needs to use a drone to spot a unit in order to complete an objective. I'm not sure how to go about this, but I would think that it can be accomplished by using that drone to lock onto a position of a unit for a given amount of time. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks Dread. Would you know how I would use it in context? Say, spotting "enemy1" in a particular location? Is this correct:

 

if (cursortarget == enemy1) then {spotted = true};

 

Edit: That works!
