[Solved] Hashtable do not save

[Heaven Editor]

I cant find the solution for this problem
I want to save indexA (integer variable) in spell_hashtable (hashtable variable) but it doesn't.
After i load it and display its value. it appear 0.
Is something wrong?

You need a hashtable object. The variable is set to null in beginning.

• Events
  • Map initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Hashtable - Create a hashtable
  • Set Spell_Hashtable = (Last created hashtable)

@WaterKnight; Why to waste a trigger to just initialize a Hashtable, when you could just do
[jass="OnSpellTrigger"]
// Set Hashtable
if (udg_MyHashtable == null ) then
set udg_MyHashtable = InitHashtable()
endif
// Other setups
[/code]

If the jass version is too much to understand... I'm writing a CS version.

• -------- --------
• Custom script: if ( udg_MyHashtable == null ) then
• Custom script: set udg_MyHashtable = InitHashtable()
• Custom script: endif
• -------- --------

Because of what TC shew in map was GUI-only and a jass user would most likely have recognized the problem him/herself while declaring the variable. But you do not want to check if hashtable exists everytime?

@WaterKnight; It does not slow down the game, neither does it leak, it has no negative points whereabout. So why not ? I do prefer it to be that way, when comparing to creating a whole new trigger for just the hashtable creation.

 

[WaterKnight]

Slightly, it does slow down the game but TC named the hashtable as spell_hashtable, so would assume wants to use it in other spell codes, too, therefore, pasting this everywhere, would create more lines/trash/take space. Besides, you normally also do other things on init, you do not have to use a private trigger for it, or you inject it into main function with jass (if InitHashtable works there).

Oh. That solve everything ++Rep
