[Trigger] How to Count Hashtables.

[FUJI]

I have a question. How to count hashtables if we can have only 141 hashtables, how to count it by saving and loading it or by creating it. I'll explain it coz I've been planning to create a Slash Pack and they are created in Hashtables.

How to count it, by creating it????????

Creating Hash??

• Creating Hashtable
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- We created hashtable so now the Hashtable is 1 out of 141 hashtables.?? --------
    • Hashtable - Create a hashtable
    • -------- 1 hashtable --------
    • Set S_Hashtable = (Last created hashtable)
    • -------- ------------------------- --------
    • -------- ------------------------- --------
    • -------- Is this the right of counting hashtable? --------

OR,

by saving and loading it????????

Saving and Loading Hash??

• Saving Loading Hashtable
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- OR, Saving and Loading hashtable????? Example below... --------
    • -------- Now we save it in hashtable so now the hashtable is 1 out of 141??? --------
    • Hashtable - Save 10.00 as 0 of (Key (Triggering unit)) in S_Hashtable
    • -------- Now we save it in hashtable so now the hashtable is 2 out of 141??? --------
    • Hashtable - Save 1 as (Key tempint) of (Key (Triggering unit)) in S_Hashtable
    • -------- ------------------------- --------
    • -------- ------------------------- --------
    • -------- ------------------------- --------
    • -------- Now we load it in hashtable so now the hashtable is 3 out of 141??? --------
    • Set TempInt = (Load (Key tempint) of (Key (Picked unit)) from S_Hashtable)
    • -------- ------------------------- --------
    • -------- ------------------------- --------
    • -------- Is this the right of counting hashtable? --------

Can someone help me with this?.

The Hashtable limit is 255 or 256 not 141.

Hashtables should be avoided for spells unless absolutely necessary. They are slower than indexed arrays. You can use one Hashtable for all of your spells.

That doesn't really answer his question. He's asking whether Hashtable counts increase only when you you create one (like at map initialisation) or whenever you store a value in a hashtable or how many hashtables are currently bound to, eg, a unit.

Uhhmm... My bad xD. But I'm asking how to count. I really don't care if hashtables are slower than arrays .

I've make an example of hashtable spell. Here is the link http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/samurai-slash-gui-mui-v1-1-a-239845/

That's a bad way to think.

For your questions tho Hashtables are only counted when they are created. If they aren't created they are null.

Don't Worry about it I will read your tutorial about indexing and learning it because I want to master hashtable first before going to indexed arrays.

My tutorial has info on hashatables also that may be useful to you.

Btw, I'll read that. Can you check my spell code in this link about hashtable if there is anything wrong in my code? http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/samurai-slash-gui-mui-v1-1-a-239845/ If you don't have time is ok .

Ill look at it later. I'm on my phone ATM.

You can hook InitHashtable and increment an integer.
