Learning JASS (Need help)

[operator]

Hey!

I've been learning JASS for, well let me see....1 day Learning it so I can create a system..

Anyhow:

How do I create a variable-Integer every time say a unit enters a region. And this Integer will decrease -1 every second. When the same unit enters the rect a string will show him what the number of that Integer is....

hehe, I suck at explaining things :S Though I hope you understood all of that

Um you are aware that one hour is simply not enough for the people to read/reply?

Well anyway...you don't really need Jass for this. Since you're learning it the best thing to do is make this in GUI and then convert to custom text. This way you will see the real code GUI wraps.

hmm, well I couldn't find a way in GUI.

• Region
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters <your region>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) for 30.00 seconds the text: (String((Custom value of (Entering unit))))
    • Unit - Set the custom value of (Entering unit) to 1000

• Reduce
  • Events
    • Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (<your region> contains (Picked unit)) Equal to False
          • Then - Actions
          • Else - Actions
        • Unit - Set the custom value of (Picked unit) to ((Custom value of (Entering unit)) - 1)

Something like that.
