[JASS] GetUnitLife without %

[temperature]

hi,

i need to get the number of life's unit, but there is just GetUnitLifePercentBJ.

how i can do it ?
thanks in advance.

 

[Dr Super Good]

native GetWidgetLife takes widget whichWidget returns real
constant native GetUnitState takes unit whichUnit,unitstate whichUnitState returns real

constant unitstate UNIT_STATE_LIFE=ConvertUnitState(0)
constant unitstate UNIT_STATE_MAX_LIFE=ConvertUnitState(1)

The function you mention does not even exist as far as I can tell...

GetUnitLifePercent, not GetUnitLifePercentBJ.

You can use GetWidgetLife(unit).
It's much faster than GetUnitState.

But GetUnitState is useful when you want to get the Max life/mana or current mana pool of a certain unit.

GetWidgetLife also works for destructables and items.

 

[Mr_Bean]

If you want to get the unit's current life, use GetWidgetLife(whichUnit).
However, if you want to get the unit's current mana, maximum mana or maximum life, you must use GetUnitState(whichUnit, whichUnitState).
The available unit states are:

UNIT_STATE_LIFE
UNIT_STATE_MAX_LIFE
UNIT_STATE_MANA
UNIT_STATE_MAX_MANA

ok ty all. (and yes, i confused with SetUnitLifePercentBJ )

but GetWiigdetLife takes a widget, and magtheridon say "you can use GetWidgetLife(unit)" and after "GetWidgetLife also works for destructables and items."

i don't understand :/

 

[Mr_Bean]

Eg: GetWidgetLife(GetTriggerUnit())

but it's the function takes a widget, how i can use it with a unit ? (i don't say that doesn't work but it's strange oO)

 

[Mr_Bean]

Widget = object

A unit is an object. Therefore a unit is a widget.

ah ok ^^
ty for your answers

 

[Magtheridon96]

Just to clarify:

// From common.j
type agent extends handle
type widget extends agent
type unit extends widget
type item extends widget
type destructable extends widget

Meaning that units, destructables and items are all widgets

You don't need to know what an agent is, you'll never use it
