JASS a better option?

[Lightning]

Hey, I'm working with some pretty hacked-together GUI triggers, and I've come up against something that I REALLY don't feel like going through.

I need to alter 150 (not a typo, one hundred and fifty) actions inside a trigger, changing one of the options from "create a visibility modifier 100 wide" to "create a visibility modifier 500 wide". Is there a find-and-replace option available in JASS or something?

JASSNewGenPack has one, but you'd have to turn those GUI triggers to JASS, which is an irreversible move. Right now, it might be the seemingly easiest approach, but if you have to change how that trigger works, then you'll have to redo it completely, since you don't know JASS.

In JNGP editor there is find and replace for JASS triggers.

Could you post a small example trigger of what you're trying to accomplish. Maybe you can utilize a loop and get away with only a few lines of code.

 

[Bribe]

There's a "Find" feature in the trigger editor but it will not be a "find and replace".

If you aren't comfortable using JASS, this may be the best solution.

Edit: I think Maker has the right idea with the loop. You usually shouldn't have so many actions in a trigger if you do it right.

I second the notion of you posting your WIP so we can get an idea if this is possible.

That's why constants were invented

which is an irreversible move

It's VERY reversible 0.0
I always do it
