Finding a destructible/doodad

[jonhysone]

Hi , Again!
Well my map has a very big number of doodads and destructibles , But each of them is named gg_dest_YTpc_6859 . There are hundred of doodads and dests in various places . I can't seem to find a doodad form its name (said it before , like this gg_dest_YTpc_6859) . Well How can I find a doodad from its name?

if you look in the destructible list with the view as raw data ticked then you will notice that YTpc is a destructible. That is how you know the type of destructible.
To find the destructible in game you look for those types using the world editor map when you click a destructible the name will appear in the bottom middle of the screen. Just match the number with 6859

I know that

Hmm that's the problem . I couldn't seem to find it .There are thousands of destructibles and doodads . I couldn't find it . It would be very easy if I find it in another way . I mean its place on the terrain .

you can use a trigger to post its X/Y value. Then just match the coordinates on the World Editor map.

aaaaaaa How could I forget that?!
EDIT : Emmmm , But I have one problem , it's that one I make X of 'position of 'Destructible' . The destructible doesn't appear in my listttttttttttt

Ummm that is odd can you post a pic ?

I can tell you that I found names of doodads in my old jass triggers ( because I got it **protected ) . And Now I can't seem to find those doodads in the new map . although I copied all doodads correctly ( there must be same names ) .
This is a part of JASS trigger where there is a name of destructibles :

set udg_TempPoint = GetDestructableLoc(gg_dest_YTpc_6859)

But look :

Maybe if I make X/Y detector in jass instead of GUI . Because I can include the dest's name in JASS . Is this a good solution?!

 

[deathismyfriend]

that might work.

 

[jonhysone]

Well now I know that destructible doesn't even exist . Because When I save the map and run it in Warcraft it crashes ^__^

 

[deathismyfriend]

only way is to delete the destructibles in batches and see if that helps.

 

[jonhysone]

what are batches?

 

[deathismyfriend]

A small group of something. That's the easiest way to explain it i believe.

How would batches do the work?

 

[deathismyfriend]

If you delete the destructibles in batches then try the map to see if it works. If it then works when it didn't before then the last batch of destructibles you have destroyed is the culprit. You then narrow it down farther to get that exact destructible.

It is impossible to handle doodads because this type does not exist.

Also for you problem, Have you put it in the Map Terrain?
