Can't compile the map anymore

[hemmedo]

hi....I'm having a trouble which i couldn't figure out.
i cannot save my map...jasshelper always finds stuffs like syntax error or variable name redeclaration but i know its impossible since I'd saved the exact same map with exact same codes without any changes...kept it as it was...have no clue what causes this problem.
Tried different patch versions to save but didn't work either. Helps are appreciated.

I moved the thread to World Editor Help Zone since this is more of a general editor issue than you needing help with your triggers/code

You could post the map, that would help.

The syntax checker tends to spit out weird errors that might be unrelated to your issue. Sometimes it'll spit out a slew of random errors across the board, but the real issue may simply be one missing character or a missing "endfunction" (anything along those lines).

The first step to see whether it is an issue with your code or an issue with jasshelper is to open a new map, save it, and see if it spits an error. If it does, then you may have a localization issue (e.g. people have had issues in the past where decimal points were replaced by commas, causing syntax errors even on empty maps).

If it is just your map, then it is most likely a syntax error. Post the map or the triggers and we'll help out.

When he can't save the map, How can he post the map with changes?

Post the Syntax error, and we'll try to Find the problem.

OP can post the map, jasshelper only cannot convert the war3map.j but the vjass code is still there.

private static method onInit takes nothing returns nothing
            call GT_AddStartsEffectAction(function thistype.Action,RAWCODE)
            call GT_AddBeginsCastingAction(function thistype.Action2,RAWCODE)
            
            set thistype.cf = Condition(function thistype.DoDamage)
         endmethod

it says onInit is redeclared...if I comment-out entire block, this time syntax error shows up on:

static if DEBUG_MODE then

like I said, there are no any changes...it used to compile this map.

Maybe you changed settings like enabled/disabled debug mode >JassHelper >Debug Mode.

fixed it by downloading JNGP 2.0 it works stable, now compiles and all....still don't know what was the problem with standard version.
quick question tough is there a difference between Vexorian's and Cohadar's compiler?

 

[Daffa]

Yes, each has compatibility issue with each other.

Cohadar's compiler saves faster and has a proper initialization order, and it adds a "for" loop construct or "while" loop construct. I don't remember the syntax--if you are used to the standard JASS loop, you probably won't need it. The issue with Cohadar's is that the bugs are less known, and I think they are pretty hard to workaround.

I still use Vexorian's jasshelper for most of my stuff.
