[Trigger] Got a problem

adamhun · Jun 15, 2010

Hi all!
I'm a not a pro at triggers but I can make some easy things. Well, this thing got me a headache. So I want to make a switchable uniform. This is the uniform on.

uniform on
- Events
  - Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -uniform on as An exact match
- Conditions
  - (Entered chat string) Equal to -uniform on
- Actions
  - Set playerpos = (Position of Villager (Male) 0209 <gen>)
  - Game Cache - Create a game cache from MahRPG.w3v
  - Game Cache - Store Villager (Male) 0209 <gen> as Player(civilian) of Unit in (Last created game cache)
  - Unit - Remove Villager (Male) 0209 <gen> from the game
  - Unit - Create 1 soldier for Player 1 (Red) at playerpos facing Default building facing degrees
  - Set soldier = (Last created unit)
  - Trigger - Turn on uniform off <gen>
  - Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

Uniform off

uniform off
- Events
  - Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -uniform off as An exact match
- Conditions
  - (Entered chat string) Equal to -uniform off
- Actions
  - Set playerpossoldier = (Position of (Last created unit))
  - Unit - Remove soldier from the game
  - Game Cache - Restore player(civilian) of Unit from (Last created game cache) for Player 1 (Red) at playerpossoldier facing (Position of (Triggering unit))
  - Trigger - Turn on uniform on <gen>
  - Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

It works well until the second change. When I want to get on the uniform second time, it not works. Someone could help me with this?(and before you say, I can't make it in JASS because I'm epic noob with it)

Why do you save it in a Game Cache? Normal variable is not good enough?

First off, make it a substring, not an exact match and also "-uniform", not "-uniform on", so that we don't use seperate triggers.

uniform on
Events
- Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -uniform as A substring

The condition should look like this:

(Substring((Entered chat string), 10, (Length of (Entered chat string))

It's a String Comparison, scroll to Substring.

New trigger shoud look like this:

uniform on
Events
- Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -uniform as A substring
Conditions
Actions
- Set Text = (Substring((Entered chat string), 10, (Length of (Entered chat string))
- If (All conditions are true) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
  - If - Conditions
    - Text Equal to on
  - Then - Actions
    - //Actions
  - Else - Actions
    - If (All conditions are true) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
      - If - Conditions
        
        Text Equal to off
      - Then - Actions
        
        //Actions
      - Else - Actions

Pharaoh_: allright, I'll try it :smile:

Rednek: "Why do you save it in a Game Cache? Normal variable is not good enough?" - A variable can store inventory? If yes, then will make it a variable.

A variable can store inventory? If yes, then will make it a variable.

A variable can store anything that the game-cache can.

JASS:

boolean
integer
real
string
handle

These are the primary data-types provided by Warcraft III, and they can be used to store data of the associated type. For example, set someStringVar = "This is a string". In any situation where you need to use game-cache you can alternatively use a global variable, or a global array variable.
