How to make "Boosters"/"Jumpers"?

[manstie]

Fly height is available in GUI.
I'm glad you decided to do it.

Echem:

EDIT: Jumpers are easy, set the DH's fly height to however high you want them to jump, then set it back to 0.

And this will cancel out the snow killing then while they are flying? (and is it possible in gui?)

GUI? Don't make me laugh.

You liar!
--- Um okay a little bug up there. The post seems to be fine tho ---

Edited by 3ICE: You had your quote tags all fucked up. I fixed them for you.
Edited by manstie: What the hell? I saw nothing wrong with those quote tags, I swear!..
Edited by 3ICE: Well, now they are all good. You had their order wrong and a missing "]" I also removed a lot of enters.
Hey! You removed the main quote that actually made my post make sense for saying "You liar"!!!
I didn't remove anything. And you could add it back anyway. I allow unlimited editing.
Okay this is getting confusing. There was a mix up in what I meant as well. When I said "Is it possible in GUI?" I mean is it possible to change the height in GUI.

[3ICE]

I don't see any problems there (apart from your fucked up quote tags).

EDIT: Setting fly height is available in GUI. Checking fly height requires an edit to my Sliding System though.

[manstie]

Well, there is only one thing I'm stuck at.

You need to rewrite my sliding system to use a loop instead of forgroup.

[3ICE]

Yes, that's a tough one :) Good luck.

[manstie]

Good Luck!?


EDIT: vvv --- Then isn't that what MSN is for? --- vvv

[3ICE]

Yeah. Let's not spam one liners.

[manstie]

Yeah, okay, just one question.
By loop do you mean:

Loop


(Hey, you know on The Hive Workshop, there is a really cool thing about it. You can copy to text, your triggers and paste it in a [ trigger ] bla [ /trigger ] and it automatically makes the pictures and gaps etc...
I'm sure you could make such a thing, with your smart mind )

[3ICE]

Yes, but my sliding system is not in GUI, so I actually meant JASS code:

loop
    exitwhen (condition)
    (sliding code comes here)
endloop

I'm sure you could make such a thing, with your smart mind

I already have. We don't use it much though.

EDIT: You can try it out here: 3ICE's Trigger Parser. (It is not finished, but very close to perfect.) There is a News post about it too, here.

[manstie]

loop
    exitwhen (condition)
    (sliding code comes here)
endloop

So, where is the forgroup part? I feel so stupid

Code: Select all

    if(t==udg_Slide)or(t==udg_Slide2)or(t==udg_Slide4)then
      call SetUnitX(u,x+udg_Speed*Cos(0.017453278*GetUnitFacing(u)))
      call SetUnitY(u,y+udg_Speed*Sin(0.017453278*GetUnitFacing(u)))

//Delete this line for the cool Realistic Sliding Mode (Between START1 and END1)
//START1
      call IssueImmediateOrder(u,"stop")
//END1

//Delete these two lines to remove terrainkill (Between START2 and END2)
//START2
   elseif(t==udg_TerrainKill)and(GetUnitState(u,UNIT_STATE_LIFE)>0)then
      call KillUnit(u)
//END2

   endif
    if(t==udg_Slide3)then
      call SetUnitX(u,x+udg_Speed2*Cos(0.017453278*GetUnitFacing(u)))
      call SetUnitY(u,y+udg_Speed2*Sin(0.017453278*GetUnitFacing(u)))

//Delete this line for the cool Realistic Sliding Mode (Between START1 and END1)
//START1
      call IssueImmediateOrder(u,"stop")
//END1

//Delete these two lines to remove terrainkill (Between START2 and END2)
//START2
   elseif(t==udg_TerrainKill)and(GetUnitState(u,UNIT_STATE_LIFE)>0)then
      call KillUnit(u)
//END2

   endif

Do I put that into the loop?

And is this the condition for if the units flying height is lower than 0? (GetUnitFlyHeight<0)

AND WHY IS THE EVENT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE JASS?

So, where is the forgroup part? I feel so stupid

Instead of ForGroup, you use loop.

Do I put that into the loop?

No. Rewrite is not like copy&paste.

And is this the condition for if the units flying height is lower than 0? (GetUnitFlyHeight<0)

Yes. Syntax error.

AND WHY IS THE EVENT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE JASS?

Convert any GUI trigger to JASS and you will see they all have their events at the bottom. This is how JASS was designed. I find it logical. First we provide the (function) that is to be executed upon (event), then we tell war3 that upon (event), execute (function). We can't link an (event) to a not-yet-existing (function).
