Automatically importing triggers?

[sethmachine]

Hi,

Is there a script/command I can put in a map which takes a(n) (absolute) path as an argument to search for a Trigger file (.wtg), which it then imports directly into the map?

It would run this command every time I load the map.

I dont think this is supported by this way(when map is loading), but you can do

//! import "filepath", which will import the script when you save the map

This will import a trigger file? Will it not overwrite the entire triggers already in the map?

Edit: Also, where does the script go afterward?

it will place the contents of .j I believe where the import line is, but they are imported before pretty much anything else happens. It imports .j, so is only useful for jass/vJass stuff.

What you want to do is otherwise impossible to do

What about Lua scripts? Does it delete these after they run?

they get changed to comments afaik after vJass parsed them
