Hot wheels

 

[Warseeker]

So the question is...

 

[Acutesharpness]

LOL man

 

[Dr Super Good]

unction H2I takes handle h returns integer
    return h
    return 0
endfunction
function I2U takes integer i returns unit
    return i
    return null
endfunction

Um what?! That has not been supported by Warcraft III for many, many years now. Ever since they patched the typecasting exploit out of the game and added GetHandleId with hashtable natives.

Are you asking for someone to maintain that resource and port it to modern Warcraft III?

 

[fireblasts]

whats wrong?

 

[edo494]

your map wont compile

 

[Legal_Ease]

Best title for a help zone thread ever - sweet looking spell - totally wrong place for it.

!????????????????????????????????

 

[qq694284743]

sorry

 

[Dr Super Good]

sorry

We do not need an apology, we just want to know why you made this thread. From our perspective we just have an animated GIF and a map with the text "Hot wheels", which is not really saying much.

Are you trying to get help updating the spell to work with the current version of Warcraft III? Fixing the JASS syntax errors when saving?

 

[WhiteFang]

Interesting spell,and name.Though this isn't the right place to post spells,unless you want help.

 

[kingkwong]

I think his/her English must be limited. I assume that the spell doesn't work but he doesn't know why. I think the Doctor has the right idea.

 

[WhiteFang]

Well,the doctor ALWAYS has the right idea.I don't think he has ever been wrong in his life

 

[bear_369]

Atleast his spell ability was totally badass.
He just misplaced this thread into a wrong section.

 

[IcemanBo]

What is this thread now about? Could you please explain?

 

[Rheiko]

But man, what ever this is about. That Hot Wheels spell looks awesome!

 

[Dr Super Good]

That Hot Wheels spell looks awesome!

Or at least used to look awesome. It is no longer compatible with Warcraft III due to using the typecasting exploit.

 

[Rheiko]

Yeah, it would be great if we could bring it back without using the typecasting exploit.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Yeah, it would be great if we could bring it back without using the typecasting exploit.

Here it is. Coding is actually kind of meh. It also is not newbie friendly to use.

I gave the thread an appropriate title and moved it into Requests. Thanks DSG for solving the issue(?) he was having.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Thanks DSG for solving the issue(?)

Honestly I am not sure. It would be really nice if he could give us more information what he wanted.

The fix uses 2 hashtables, one of which can only be used by this sytem. This means it is not really a good solution.

One of the hashtables (PHAN_CKEY) should be made a global used by many systems. The other could be replaced by an array linked list system or by adding a group member. Performance could be increased by making the ability state struct based rather than stored on the timers with separate keys. Complexity could be greatly reduced by synchronizing instance ticks, since then a list structs could be iterated every tick removing the need for the hashtables entirely (and probably boosting performance).
