Need a JASS expert to fix the map for 1.24b

Could someone fix Peppar's Multiplayer Chess for 1.24b?

I don't want to have 2 w3s installed and losing this imba map would be a tragedy.

Hello, well I saw that map one day aswell, and asked if someone could fix it for 1.24b, but that is not allowed, since you don't have permission from author which hasn't been online for a long time. So we kind of can't do anything, even though the map is awesome :/

JassHelper reports 2 errors. Is fixing this against the author's rights? That's bad then. :/ (btw, I already fixed the map but due to my bad jass knowledge I had to delete a part of the function).

Changes at all are not "allowed" without the authors permission.
Although it's a fix... I wouldn't realy care, it's only a fix... but the rules...^^

EDIT: Forget it, NO ONE will be able to fix this.
The problem has nothing to do with 1.24b, it shouldn't be playable at all.
I took a look, and there are several bugs that require to know each part of code and the exact way his entire chess system works. Find him, or loose the map.

Dunno how you came up with that...
Jasshelper reported 2 errors:
1. there was "return" but no integer value after it, I added null... (just like that)
2. There was something wrong with addtriggeraction line, something with function parameters...I deleted it ^^

I tried to play the game and i worked. The problem is...I don't know if some bugs could appear because of my "fixes". I guess someone with JASS knowledge should be able to fix this easily..

anyway, if rules are strictly to go by I will try to contact him through e-mail..

I saw the two errors. You don't know in which case it will return null and what will happen due that. The parameter thingy shouldn't work at all without the parameters, taking a look at the function. If it works, good luck, but be prepared for bugs^^

I will do few tests... still, if anyone is willing to fix those 2 bugs, he's more than welcome.

Here you go, working as of wc3 1.24c. I did some rough testing and it seemed to function as intended. It however may be bugged in a small way which I did not pick up but normal chess play seems working.

10x doc! I will test it out, but I guess you fixed it better then me.

 

[Dr Super Good]

I did no deleting of code, only ammending or adding to it to fix the problem thus all functionality should still be there.

Any bugs which occur would be due to me incorrectly patching broken logic which the map used (due to having to guess the output as I never tried that code structure before 1.24).
