Hashtable crashes WE (newgen)

[sentess]

When I try to choose a trigger that uses hashtable.. My WE crashes...
Sorry about all these questions these days...! :<

Anyone got an idea why?

 

[DarkAngelAzazel]

Well only think I could guess is that newgen is so old that it doesn't know hashtables yet.
So it won't be able to handle them.

It's the newest version of newgen

 

[DarkAngelAzazel]

Yeah but as far as I got that even the newest version is only made for Patch 1.21. it might work with 1.24 but my not be fully integrated :/

my JNGP 5d works with 1.24e hashtable functions. In what way your JNGP crash?

Some of the Hashtable GUI functions crash even the regular WE, they are messed up by blizzard, aren't you using those? (the Save functions for absurd variable types that are not in GUI at all)

Indeed, I experienced these crashes as well when browsing Hashtable-labeled GUI actions.

 

[sentess]

Well the WE just crashes don't give any explanation.

Hashtables work perfectly in newgen if you script in jass (what you should be doing).

If you use GUI, some will crash cause of the poor design of GUI in WC3. What happens is they reference types which the maintenence team thought would logically be in GUI but stupidly were not. Blame the maker of GUI and not the maintenece team.

Why does this sound familiar...

That is true with one exception: Save/Load ability. There are (propably) working JASS functions for abilities, while the actual ability type is some relict from development version of JASS (with the addition of hashtables, it has now 3 functions: GetSpellAbility() and save/load)

Back to topic: What exactly are you trying to do with the hashtable, when it crashes?

 

[sentess]

I can't remember... But I think it was saving an ability
