[Solved] Copy / Paste Trigger from one map to another

[Goblioc]

Hello

I'm trying to copy paste trigger from one map to another.
All of them are based on variables etc. NOTHING on the actual map. It's a kind of melee init but with my spells etc.

However, even if it works for the most part, some triggers are... broken... My dialog boxes are empty, no text, and some spells doesnt work either...
I copy pasted a file with everything in it. And i tried with both maps open in the editor to ctrl C / ctrl V.

Another thing : how can i copy paste the Game Constants too ?


Thanks !

1) For the triggers just make sure all the variables and triggers are in the same category folder, also make sure Trigger Editor -> JASS Helper is enabled, then,

Right click in your folder (the one that contains the triggers), press copy and go to your other map and press paste. You also need to tick the option from File -> Preferences -> Automatically create variables when pasting unknown trigger data.

(How can I copy/paste triggers?)

2) I don't think there is an easy way to copy Gameplay Constants?

Let me know if that works.

What do you mean "in the same category folder" ?
The variables must be "next to" the triggers which use it?
Everything is in the same folder. And i have sub-folders etc.

No that's not required to use the triggers. But it makes it easier to copy/paste from map file to map file. Because if you copy the triggers over before the variables are copied over. Then all the variables will be blank and you would need to set them up again.

Nono, everything is in ONE SINGLE folder. It's easier indeed.
But still doesnt work
And yeah the preference thing is checked, i alrdy read the thread you quote. Its strange

Look :

It makes no sense xD

Go through all of the variables and make sure that they have the correct variable type. It sounds like some are getting unset which is a bug. Then after fixing the variables, proceed to delete all of the triggers but keep the variables. Then save, return to your original map, and copy ONLY the triggers this time and then paste them into the new map. Hopefully this will avoid the variable breaking issue and preserve the triggers.

Okay i'll try to do it your way ! I keep you informed if it still bugs !

I have custom datas for units spells etc aswell as importes models/icon
In which order to you advice me to import it ?
1- models icons
2- custom data
3- variables & triggers
?

The Names disappeared , i don't know why, i imported the custom datas... I don't understand
It seems to be an issue with customized melee maps

Maybe it's something to do with the language loaded? I know sometimes Korean letters don't appear in game when I have the English set loaded. I know the French alphabet is the same so it's unlikely but maybe causing the text to not load?

I removed the imported language data... its works but maybe i removed too many xD
