[JASS] GetConvertedPlayerId()

[ZiggyMcjoney]

I have some GUI triggers and some JASS triggers. Global variables have been set which use arrays 1, 2, 3 and 4 for players 1, 2, 3, 4.

I understand that when doing something like the following action:

Set MyVar[Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit))] = 1

in GUI, the 'player number of owner of triggering unit' if the player was player 1 would be 0, and so it uses "GetConvertedPlayerId" to change it to 1.

My question is, if I am setting the SAME global variable in a JASS trigger, do I have to add that 1 to the array value, or do I just use "GetPlayerId" and it will work?

Hope that makes sense. Thanks in advance.

-_- yes you need? It's actually kinda obvious..
The variable you set with GetConvertedPlayerId has +1 in the index, you have to do it the same in Jass if you first set it with GUI...

Fair enough.

I know it's obvious but I wanted to make sure, cause what I've thought was obvious sometimes has turned out completely incorrect.
