[JASS] Attaching something to a timer

[Need_O2]

I need this with vJass "NOT caster system"

Well they made some explainations to me about how-to but since Im sucker I didnt get any of them
A quick example would be good
Give me a trigger that attachs unit to timer and kills it after 5 seconds

And we can use timers as handles this is okay
can we use units as handles too for making "custom values" ?

that thread contains both DataSystem, a generic method of attatching one type to a handle, and TimedEvent, a simplistic method of passing an integer value to a time-delayed callback function.

DataSystem frickin' pawns! Me R teh use it now.

@Need_O2, you can also use TimerUserData by DiscipleOfLife (which is faster than DataSystem, but only works for timers with a certain refresh rate). It's in his signature:

or I can use cscache
xD

 

[HINDYhat]

Of course... but that sucks bawls.

 

[Need_O2]

anyway fixed with CSSafety xP

CSSafety is just for bug prevents, what did you fix with that?

Btw, CSCache has SetCSData/GetCSData which is probably identical to grim's DataSystem and can go over the array limit (with the use of game cache). Also there's Vexorians TimeLib which I can't figure out since there are no instructions or anything.

He also got "MagicTimer" which looks really nice.

I mean I attached now go away and leave me with practices ^^
Do I need to report for closing ?

 

[HINDYhat]

MagicTimer can attach things to timers...

 

[Need_O2]

hey I made a spell that uses 3 timers (wth) already and Ive something like MagicTimer already with a function called TimedEvent
well doing it with data system is better for me

I don't think threads here "close" that often.....
