Compilingerrors..?

[Shahoo]

Hi community!

I used to make my WC3 maps on my Laptop, since i was a lot on the train.

Today i transfered my data onto my home pc and everytime i save i get this weird error/information window.

And I have no clue where all theses Errors come from.
On my laptop i never had any issues. I can't remember changing any setting inside the editor either.

Also, i always get an error message if I have an error inside a trigger and it auto disables it, which my laptop never did either.

Any clue how to fix all theses Compilation errors or to not show them, because the used map to works fine, but if i save it on my PC it wont even start.

Here just some of the 149 Errors:

    set gg_unit_n00F_0039 = CreateUnit( p, 'n00F', -2880,0, 1600,0, 270,000 )
    set gg_unit_ewsp_0017 = CreateUnit( p, 'ewsp', 2526,3, 2825,3, 19,545 )
    set gg_unit_n00F_0040 = CreateUnit( p, 'n00F', -2624,0, 1600,0, 270,000 )
    set gg_unit_ewsp_0020 = CreateUnit( p, 'ewsp', 2587,1, 2835,0, 339,971 )

    set u = CreateUnit( p, 'n001', 2176,0, 2688,0, 270,000 )
    set u = CreateUnit( p, 'n002', 2944,0, 2688,0, 270,000 )
    set gg_unit_n000_0002 = CreateUnit( p, 'n000', 2560,0, 2688,0, 270,000 )

    set gg_rct_Shop = Rect( -2560,0, 2048,0, -2048,0, 2560,0 )
    set gg_rct_DuelChamp = Rect( -768,0, 2304,0, -640,0, 2432,0 )
    set gg_rct_DuelBoss = Rect( 1152,0, 2304,0, 1280,0, 2432,0 )

    call CameraSetupSetField( gg_cam_Camera_001, CAMERA_FIELD_TARGET_DISTANCE, 1084,0, 0,0 )

Ill gladly attach a .txt file with everything copied in it, if needed.

Did you already try to restart the editor and reload the map? when i sometimes had those weird compiling errors (where no syntax problems are) that helped

 

[Shahoo]

yeah, it happens everytime.

My Laptop is WindowsVista, my home pc Win8, does that maybe have anything todo with it? :8

ah, now i see the problems, your script actually IS broken
in english the decimal point is a point, not a comma like in german
in your map script, all real numbers are with a comma instead of a point, that breaks it
what you can do is remove all the objects you placed in your map that bug and recreate them OR edit the war3map.j file of your map (i believe its called like that) and correct it

I'll try that, good i dont have too many units placed. most of them are spawn via triggers. Or do I have to change those too?

 

[Varimathras.]

As far as i can see from your post only the preplaced units,rects,cameras,... bug
the problem is if you delete them and place them again you have to fix all triggers that use those

 

[Shahoo]

Whelp, i guess ill have a lot of work to do then.

Is there a way i can export everything into an universal file and if i open it up on the german one it corrects/switches . to , ?

Otherwise... well shit ^^

Not this problem again...

For some reason one of the last WC3 patches broke automatic script compiling so that it now depends on system localization. JASS as a language only supports US localization so it breaks badly for many localizations. Germany and France are especially prone to this as their localization has ',' as the fractional delimiter instead of '.' which makes the resulting script pass as if it has too many arguments declared.

The only solution is to change the fractional delimiter for your localization to match that of the US (or UK, as that also works and is similar to US).

Control Panel->Region and Language->Format panel->Additional settings...
Make "Decimal symbol:" be '.'

In France and Germany it would be ',' which is why WC3 is breaking.

You need to then accept the changes, restart the computer (they do not work immediately as far as I know) and then once booting is done it should allow you to save maps as expected (unless some other problem with localization occurs, but I cannot think of one).
