[JASS] Help with Triggering AI - Guard

DarkArchon · Jan 21, 2008

Hi, ive been making a remake of an old game "Escape from Colditz" and i need to make trigger(s) which makes a guard behave in a certain way if certain conditions are met. These triggers need to be multi-instanciable, meaning that it doesnt just work for one guard, but all of the guards / prisoners.
I have already made "area" buffs which are cast to the prisoners when they step into a new area, and also the prisoners have a passive ability which tells them what nationality they are.
All area buffs are based on the "Endurance" Aura.
All nationality buffs are based on the "Bash" passive ability.

1) Guard - Prisoner in Guard uniform
The guard will run up to the prisoner dressed as a guard and stop him to ask for his pass. If he doesnt have a pass, he is sent to solitary confinement (back in original prisoner uniform) with all inventory lost. The guard cant just stop him immediatly, but needs to be a certain distance away before he can stop the prisoner. Also, if the prisoner/guard runs away he can just shoot them (if in range of a shot). The guard shouldnt just shoot straight away if the prisoner moves alittle bit then stops, he should kind of chase them till a certain distance then get out the rifle.

Ive been having trouble with this one as its abit hit and miss, they will run up to you and ask, but if u run away, they wont shoot / follow (trigger at bottom)

2) Guard - Prisoner in restricted area
The guard will run up to the prisoner, and the prisoner will have a "Caught" buff aquired meaning any guard can now chase this prisoner and capture / shoot him. Similar to the first one, but doesnt require a pass because they will just get sent straight to the solitary confinement.

Pretty much the same situation, submitted trigger at bottom.

3) Guard - Prisoner with Caught Buff
The guard will run up to the prisoner and send to solitary confinement, pretty much identical if the prisoner was in a restricted area.

4) Guard - Prisoner in other nationality quarters
A prisoner is in another nationality quarters other than their own, pretty much acts exactly like if in a restricted area.

Havent had the chance to code this one, because of the unsuccess of the other triggers.

5) Guard - Prisoner in Open Access Area at night time
A prisoner is caught in a open access area at night time, results in the same situation for if they were in a restricted area.

Same problem.

I hope someone out there can help me with these triggers because its really starting to frustrate me. I will +rep and add your name to the credits if you are successful in making these triggers work. If you need more help with me describing the actions/conditions required, just post it up and il try and help. If you need to see my triggers in action I can post up the map with it working. The triggers also dont have to be done in GUI, can be done in JAZZ, im just not that great with JAZZ.

If anyone is also wanting to help with other parts of the map, terraining, triggers, testing, general helping i could post up the map and add to the creator of the map (if enough help was given) with joint credit of the final map release :wthumbsup:

Here is some code that ive tried to make work, but its very complicated and doesnt work 100% of the time. Needs alot of work :wsad:

If you look in that forum, i have already submitted a post there and have had no luck in that department. What im searching for is to convert what I have into jazz format. Please read the post before judging.

wd40bomber7 · Jan 21, 2008

Sorry your reference to JAZZ threw my off. Its jass. Please call it that. If you'd like to convert it to jass the first step would be to Edit -> Convert to custom text. Then you'd move on to removing the bj's and doing all around optimization. Finally you'd begin to address the actual problems. The fact your presenting your triggers in GUI probably means you don't know any jass. If thats the case I suggest looking through the tutorials at THW and wc3campaigns.

In truth your goals aren't that complicated. If I had more time I might begin the optimization of your code. Good night...

Ok, so i did what you said, and converted it all to custom text. This is the trigger layout:

1) Guard - Prisoner in Guard Uniform:

JASS:

function Trig_guard_uniform_pass_1_Func003C takes nothing returns boolean
    if ( ( GetUnitTypeId(GetTriggerUnit()) == 'h001' ) ) then
        return true

Thats all the converted code into jass. Please, if anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. Will +rep and add to the credits of the map. Also if anyone would like any more infomation on the map, I have posted up a Map Development thread on this map found here:

Ok a few things. TriggerSleepAction (also known as WAIT) can't be any faster then .3 If you set it any lower it will still wait about .29 or .3 seconds. I need to leave in about 10 minutes so I can't do anything right now. But perhaps tomorrow I'll have some time before robotics. (Which currently takes precedence over school, homework, life ... anything else in this world)

Alright, thanks for the reply.

Deep Sea Kraken · Jan 27, 2008

He also said to clean up your BJ functions. All BJs do are call a native function which is what actually does the action.

Instead of:

JASS:

[color=navy]call IssuePointOrderLocBJ( udg_Unit_Guard_Prisoner[1],"move", GetUnitLoc(udg_Unit_Guard_Prisoner[2]))

You Want:

JASS:

call IssuePointOrderLoc( udg_Unit_Guard_Prisoner[1], "move", GetUnitLoc(udg_Unit_Guard_Prisoner[2]) )

Just a note: Native function sometimes take the peramitters in a different order.

Trigger Overhaul - missing the point

Im sorry to sound rude at all, but I am new to jass so i dont know a great deal about it. I have looked at the tutorials posted up, but i think they are a load of crap and dont tell me anything new that i havent learnt already in java.

To what I was saying, changing a BJ function to a native function sounds like just word manipulation (i.e. solving a small leak in a trigger). This is all well and good for fixing small problems, but I need a trigger overhaul.

i.e. I need someone to look at what I have written in my first post to code up a fresh new version of the trigger from scrap in jass who know what they are doing. Me attempting to change small variations of my existing trigger (which originally came from GUI) isn't going to solve my problem because the GUI wasn't working in the first place.

I dont want to sound like a whiney ungrateful little bitch, but can someone please look at my trigger expectations laid out in my first post (before the GUI coding) and code up something in jass to help me with this problem? Any help given will result in +rep.

EDIT - I havent seen the tutorials of jass yet i just realized, but the jass classroom. My apologies, and starting to read through it now.

Best JASS tutorial: just try making stuff with JassCraft.
You can download it here.

[Tip] never type your codes in the normal WE ! it crashes a lot of times without any reason and voila... your code just went to hell unless you saved it 1 second before (or unless it was a pure white code which will send it to heaven !

).

Another Tip Instead of all those blizzard conditions, for example

Code:

function Trig_prisoner_loop_checker_1_Func003C takes nothing returns boolean
    if ( not ( udg_GuardDistance <= 500.00 ) ) then
        return false
    endif
    return true
endfunction

You can just type it like this

Code:

function Trig_prisoner_loop_checker_1_Func003C takes nothing returns boolean
    return udg_GuardDistance <= 500.00
endfunction

lol? Ever heard of Jass New Gen Editor? It replaces WE's crappy syntax checker with a much better one. It also adds syntax highlighting and has a function finder. Its almost exactly like Jasscraft except its in WE.

Tried using it, I got really confused. But maybe that's because it was before I even started writing in JASS ? :huh:

Anyway, im really happy with JassCraft at the moment.

So funny (and sad) to get 200+ compile errors because a single not-even-syntax-error ^^
