I dont understand you people...

why does almost all of you say JASS is better than GUI if you will just convert it into custom ones, like, what if you make a GUI trigger then after that convert it into custom script? Its like making Jass script,..I still have reason why i stick with GUI -_-..please help me remove these reasons...i want to JASS!!

The "convert to Custom Script" still leaves you with all the limitations in GUI (since you did your actual coding in GUI) such as lack of locals, poorly processed code, and so on. If you fixed all these after converting, you might as well start in JASS.

 

[machris13]

so you mean if i converted everything to custom script there are still lacking or whatever mistakes i get?

If you convert something from gui to jass its exactly the same, but its not GUI. Every gui function exists also in jass or is made out of some jass functions.

 

[machris13]

but does it still make sense? converting a GUI(already made) into jass?
if that so, i guess converting that does not change anything...correct me if im wrong..please!

It only changes the way YOU edit it, the game works with these two exactly the same. Actually, every GUI is converted to JASS anyway when you save the map, and the game runs these converted versions. GUI is only for more convenient editing.

Big lines of jass within custom scripts can also cause WE to crash.

Why scripting in direct JASS is better?
Because typing is faster than clicking.
More flexible loops.
Usage of BJ functions can be avoided.

You better experience doing it to see more than what I said.

The only problem by converting GUI to Jass is the BJ's, alot more functions (THeres like 5 functions for one condition), I say learn to make something and then do a simple action with it.

like set a unit (create it too), make it loose hp every 10 second. Converting events arent so wrong.
