Is there a way to combine regions?

Title.

you cant, but you can do this...

• Region - MoveRegion

OR MoveRectTo

 

[Nestharus]

• Region - MoveRegion

This doesn't even make sense. You can't move a region >.<.

You can move a rect though
MoveRectTo

; )


You can combine rects by adding them to the same region.

local region r = CreateRegion()
local rect r1 = Rect(xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax)
local rect r2 = Rect(xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax)
call RegionAddRect(r,r1)
call RegionAddRect(r,r2)

In GUI, rects placed on the map are automatically added to a single region so that each rect on the map can also act as a region. This makes many GUI users think that their rects are in fact regions when this is not the case.

Rect variable names are gg_rct_RECT_NAME where all spaces in your name are replaced with underscores. You can access the rects on your map directly doing this and add them to a single region. From here, you can access your GUI trigger and register it with that region : ). This requires a bit of JASS knowledge to pull off : P.

Nes, my GUI maybe rusty but there is "Move - Moves a region to a point" (same as MoveRegion).I already mention also the MoveRectTo above ...

EDIT: and Region in GUI is rect in jass

Will i need to do all the triggers in JASS to reference the region? it seems (and you mightve said this, lol) that there are no regions in GUI, only rects

That's correct

 

[Arhowk]

That's correct

Now would it be possible to operate a region like a recT?

For rects, there would be GetRandomLocInRect(rect)
Is there something like that for regions?

native IsLocationInRegion takes region whichRegion, location whichLocation returns boolean
native IsPointInRegion takes region whichRegion, real x, real y returns boolean
native IsUnitInRegion takes region whichRegion, unit whichUnit returns boolean
native RegionAddCell takes region whichRegion, real x, real y returns nothing
native RegionAddCellAtLoc takes region whichRegion, location whichLocation returns nothing
native RegionAddRect takes region whichRegion, rect r returns nothing
native RegionClearCell takes region whichRegion, real x, real y returns nothing
native RegionClearCellAtLoc takes region whichRegion, location whichLocation returns nothing
native RegionClearRect takes region whichRegion, rect r returns nothing
native TriggerRegisterEnterRegion takes trigger whichTrigger, region whichRegion, boolexpr filter returns event
native TriggerRegisterLeaveRegion takes trigger whichTrigger, region whichRegion, boolexpr filter returns event

I was looking at those, but i didn't know if i missed the function that would do it. My homemade function =

function GetRandomInteger takes integer a returns boolean
    return ( GetRandomInt(1, a) == 1 )
endfunction

function RandomSpawnInRegion takes integer unitid, integer chance, rect randomloc, region r  returns nothing
    set udg_Temp_Integer = 1
    loop
        exitwhen udg_Temp_Integer > 1
        set udg_Temp_Point = GetRandomLocInRect(randomloc)
            if (IsLocationInRegion(r, udg_Temp_Point)) then
            if (GetRandomInteger(chance)) then
                call CreateNUnitsAtLoc( 1, unitid, Player(PLAYER_NEUTRAL_AGGRESSIVE), udg_Temp_Point, bj_UNIT_FACING )
                call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point)
            else
            call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point)
            endif
            set udg_Temp_Integer = 2
        else
        call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point)
        endif
    endloop
endfunction

Hopefully it works, ima test.

^The first two fixes I would do are to use CreateUnit instead of CreateNUnits...and only use the last RemoveLocation.

    endloop
endfunction
endlibrary

This only returns "triggered3"....

call RandomSpawnInRegion('H00J', 1, gg_rct_Kobold_Overlap, KoboldSpawn) is what i used to call it. Whatd i do wrong? :s

lol u guys dont like this trigger

 

[mckill2009]

yes, coz it has many BJ's, destroys location and etc...in Jass we have a native called...
native MoveLocation takes location whichLocation, real newX, real newY returns nothing
so you dont have to destroy locations ...
