Introlink shows what Im trying to achieve in the NASH Example.
Basically its an Indexer for items and abilities. It creates spells and items as well as tracking them.
Alls the coder has to do is create a gui trigger and adjust some values with a pile of variables. The rest of the code is created for them through the ability and item indexer.
Also there should be a way to add additional ability / item systems to the code without having to know alot of jass. that way a gui/jass user can just create a system (for example a jumping system) using gui/jass and set a few global variables to true in their system and it creates it for them. that way a gui user can still get the effect of using the ability/ item indexer without learning jass.
I've provided AIDS for a prescript if you need something to start from....

// v 1.1.0
// What is AIDS?
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
// AIDS assigns unique integers between 1 and 8191 to units which enter
// the map. These can be used for arrays and data attaching.
//
// AIDS also allows you to define structs which are created automatically
// when units enter the map, and filtering which units should be indexed
// as well as for which units these structs should be created.
//
// How to implement?
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
// Simply create a new trigger object called AIDS, go to 'Edit -> Convert
// to Custom Text', and replace everything that's there with this script.
//
// Save the map, close it, reopen it, and then delete the "!" from the
// FAR left side of the next lines (so "external" will line up with this line):
//! external ObjectMerger w3a Adef AIDS anam "State Detection" ansf "(AIDS)" aart "" arac 0
//
// At the top of the script, there is a 'UnitIndexingFilter' constant
// function. If the function returns true for the unit, then that unit
// will be automatically indexed. Setting this to true will automatically
// index all units. Setting it to false will disable automatic indexing.
//
// Functions:
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
// function GetUnitId takes unit u returns integer
// - This returns the index of an indexed unit. This will return 0
// if the unit has not been indexed.
// - This function inlines. It does not check if the unit needs an
// index. This function is for the speed freaks.
// - Always use this if 'UnitIndexingFilter' simply returns true.
//
// function GetUnitIndex takes unit u returns integer
// - This will return the index of a unit if it has one, or assign
// an index if the unit doesn't have one (and return the new index).
// - Use this if 'UnitIndexingFilter' doesn't return true.
//
// function GetIndexUnit takes integer index returns unit
// - This returns the unit which has been assigned the 'index'.
//
// AIDS Structs:
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
// - Insert: //! runtextmacro AIDS() at the top of a struct to make it
// an AIDS struct.
// - AIDS structs cannot be created or destroyed manually. Instead, they
// are automatically created when an appropriate unit enters the map.
// - You cannot give members default values in their declaration.
// (eg: private integer i=5 is not allowed)
// - You cannot use array members.
// - AIDS structs must "extend array". This will remove some unused
// functions and enforce the above so there will be no mistakes.
// - There are four optional methods you can use in AIDS structs:
// - AIDS_onCreate takes nothing returns nothing
// - This is called when the struct is 'created' for the unit.
// - In here you can assign members their default values, which
// you would usually assign in their declarations.
// (eg: set this.i=5)
// - AIDS_onDestroy takes nothing returns nothing
// - This is called when the struct is 'destroyed' for the unit.
// - This is your substitute to the normal onDestroy method.
// - AIDS_filter takes unit u returns boolean
// - This is similar to the constant filter in the main system.
// - Each unit that enters the map will be tested by each AIDS
// struct filter. If it returns true for that unit, that unit
// will be indexed if it was not already, the AIDS struct will
// have its AIDS_onCreate method called, and later have its
// AIDS_onDestroy method called when the index is recycled.
// - Not declaring this will use the default AIDS filter instead.
// - AIDS_onInit takes nothing returns nothing
// - This is because I stole your onInit function with my textmacro.
// - You can use '.unit' from any AIDS struct to get the unit for which
// the struct is for.
// - The structs id will be the units index, so getting the struct for
// a unit inlines to a single native call, and you can typecast between
// different AIDS structs. This is the premise of AIDS.
// - Never create or destroy AIDS structs directly.
// - You can call .AIDS_addLock() and AIDS_removeLock() to increase or
// decrease the lock level on the struct. If a struct's lock level is
// not 0, it will not be destroyed until it is reduced to 0. Locks just
// put off AIDS struct destruction in case you wish to attach to a timer
// or something which must expire before the struct data disappears.
// Hence, not freeing all locks will leak the struct (and index).
//
// PUI and AutoIndex:
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
// - AIDS includes the PUI textmacros and the AutoIndex module, because
// these systems are not compatible with AIDS but have valid and distinct
// uses.
// - The PUI textmacros are better to use for spells than AIDS structs,
// because they are not created for all units, just those targetted by
// the spell (or whatever else is necessary).
// - The AutoData module is good for very simple array syntax for data
// attachment (although I don't recommend that people actually use it,
// it's here mostly for compatability). Note that unlike the PUI textmacros,
// units must pass the AIDS filter in order for this module to work with
// them. This is exactly as the same as in AutoIndex itself (AutoIndex
// has a filter too).
//
// Thanks:
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
// - Romek, for writing 90% of this user documentation, challenging my
// interface, doing some testing, suggesting improvements and inspiring
// me to re-do my code to include GetUnitIndex as non-inlining.
// - grim001, for writing the AutoData module, and AutoIndex. I used the
// on-enter-map method that he used. Full credits for the AutoData module.
// - Cohadar, for writing his PUI textmacros. Full credits to him for these,
// except for my slight optimisations for this system.
// Also, I have used an optimised version of his PeriodicRecycler from
// PUI in this system to avoid needing a RemoveUnitEx function.
// - Vexorian, for helping Cohadar on the PUI textmacro.
// - Larcenist, for suggesting the AIDS acronym. Originally he suggested
// 'Alternative Index Detection System', but obviously I came up with
// something better. In fact, I'd say it looks like the acronym was
// an accident. Kinda neat, don't you think? :P
//
// Final Notes:
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
// - With most systems, I wouldn't usually add substitutes for alternative
// systems. However, UnitData systems are an exception, because they
// are incompatible with eachother. Since using this system forbids
// people from using the real PUI or AutoIndex, and a lot of resources
// use either of these, it made sense not to break them all.
//
// - If this documentation confused you as to how to use the system, just
// leave everything as default and use GetUnitId everywhere.
//
// - To use this like PUI (if you don't like spamming indices) simply
// make the AIDS filter return false, and use GetUnitIndex.
