Multiple Custom Values

[Parrothead]

Is there a way to have multiple custom values for single units?

 

[Da-Andy]

Yes, make global variables with array and the array for each unit is the custom value of the unit:

• Set custom_value2[(Custom value of (Your unit))] = 0
• Set custom_value3[(Custom value of (Your unit))] = 1

Hashtables are also an easy solution. Virtually unlimited amount of custom values.

another idea would be a struct that stores data and indexing it by the unit custom value.

which is actually quite similar to what da-andy said. However it gives you a more easier way to configure if you know how to deal with jass.

struct s_unit
    unit    subject             = null

    integer data1
    integer data2
    integer data3

    static method create takes unit u returns s_unit
        local s_unit su = s_unit.allocate()
            set su.subject = u
            call SetUnitUserData(u, su)
        return su
    endmethod
endstruct

Now, whenever you have the value of "s_unit" you can access the unit by substituting "sUnitVar.subject". If you have the value of the unit you can access the struct (and thus the other data values) by using "GetUnitUserData".

To access the other integers within the structure, you'd use: call s_unit( GetUnitUserData( someUnit ) ).data1. You can replace "data1" with "data2" or any other values that are defined within the s_unit struct.
