Is there someone who would be willing to teach (or lets say help me) learn jass/vjass? I was thinking about starting with Jass first, then gradually go over to vjass and learn how to do things with structs and in the end perhaps even use Lua/Typescript. I'm at a point, where I know basic jass...

Hey guys, I've recently been interested in learning Python, and even got a paid course for it from Udemy, and it's been great so far, I noticed there are so many similarities between JASS Syntax and Python, and I'd not be surprised if that were the case for any other programming language out...

So, I'm new to Jass, read quite a few tutorials and feel pretty sure about the basics so far. With my current knowledge, I'm trying to create a camera trigger. That trigger is supposed to zoom out the camera of the player (should work for every player) if they type in "-+500" (without the "")...

Hello there, I hope you are all fine. So I decided to do the jump and start converting my map to Lua, trigger by trigger. But before I even go further, I cannot even manage to get my triggers to run. I have made a GUI trigger : Lua Init Events Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00...

When you save your map and it compiles your script if it gives a syntax error it tells you what it is but what line it's on and the text box of that line is never actually where the syntax error is. Is there a way to find where it is cause VS isn't catching any errors edit: For some reason if I...

A few years back I remember having an option in trigger editor(probably not original) to convert the GUI to Jass or vJass(not sure). I can no longer find such convertor... Does anyone know of any way to do such a thing?

1. For bribes damage engine, it's faster if you combine all your triggers into one with the GDD_Damage_event. Does the same concept apply to other triggers? Say combining all your, "a unit is sold" or "periodic Event .03 sec" along with the many other events to reduce lag? 2...

Warcraft III Reforged brought us lua scripting, but still a lot of map makers for WC3 are using cJass. Just because C-style syntax rules. Unfortunately cJass extension is unsupported for Reforged and who knows how it will be. Lua is more efficient, useful and simple for game development. But a...

Hello, This function was not working properly and I didn't know why: After doing some tests I have found that it needs a space (or you need to have that terrain type in your tileset already) in your Terrain Tileset in order to work and because I have 16 terrain types in my tileset right now...
