Is there a function in scripts.dll that finds the nearest building to a gameobject?

If not, would the function in OnOeS work with 4.0 without too much editing?

EDIT: ignore this, I've just found it

Commands->Find_Nearest_Building(GameObject*) should work.

Does that get it by the controller or by the mesh? I assume it gets it by the controller, which could be incorrect if someone didn't put the controllers on the buildings themselves, or if you're standing on the far end of the airstrip runway.
