[JASS] bj_mapInitialPlayableArea

[Starquizer]

If I made and imported a custom BJ file, will it affect bj_mapInitialPlayableArea ?

 

[Arhowk]

what do you mean by import a custom bj file?

I mean a custom made blizzard.J file, it will affect the BJ functions or at least that is what I understand.

Depends on how much do you changed, removed and/or edited your custom blizzard.j

In fact, if you change it to your custom blizzard.j file, and you don't add that function, then... you have problems there.

If removed those BJ functions will no longer work but what about bj_mapInitialPlayableArea, bj_MAX_PLAYERS, bj_MAX_INVENTORY ... etc will they still function ?

 

[Arhowk]

if you remove them they will not work.........................

Here's the best thing you can do:
Erase the entire Blizzard.j file except for:
TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ
The config and Init functions, and most of the useful globals.

How do I remove Blizzard.j do I need an MPQ application to remove it ?
Sorry, it may seems a dumb question but really I need to understand how to import custom j files and edit those common and blizzard Js ?

 

[Arhowk]

use mpqeditor.

 

[Magtheridon96]

Here.
Just erase all the shit you don't need.
By the way, careful, because these BJs use other BJs sometimes, so make sure you inline them before you delete them.

And Init stuff at the bottom is pretty important, so make sure you read through it and make sure you don't need it before deleting anything.

 

[Starquizer]

If I imported a blizzard.J via the Import Manager in a certain map (and changed its path to that in the MPQ), does the one in the MPQ is overridden for that map ?

 

[Magtheridon96]

Yes.

I dont get why would anyone edit the bj file anyway when you can create a library or a custom BJ's without editing...

 

[Magtheridon96]

People would usually edit it to remove the shit they don't want because if they were to forget anything, their map wouldn't run

Also, the initialization of Blizzard.j is what makes stock updates and day/night sounds happen, so you need that (or you can extract it and put it in your own map)

 

[mckill2009]

I still believe its useless to edit it...instead of removing some shits and import the custom bj(thus increases the file size of your map), simply dont use them, no harm done...

I am asking only for general information, not that I am going to remove them or anything.

An empty or so blizzard.j would hardly increase the map size in a significant manner ...

Don't take me wrong, i'm not saying that is very useful, even if it will decrease the memory and handles used.

 

[Magtheridon96]

This is my version of Blizzard.j

globals
    group bj_lastCreatedGroup = CreateGroup()
endglobals

I saved countless handles and lots of globals <:
