Look at my tutorial the chapter on how to index.

Deathinsmyfriend, I tried applying your indexing method to my triggers. For some reason it isn't working.

Are Hashtables an easier route?

????????????????????????????

Need help.

What's wrong with it, Deathismyfriend? I followed your tutorial exactly.

deathismyfriend · Aug 13, 2013

if you followed my tutorial and its not working then you did something wrong.

Also please dont double post.

This is your problem

Set Jump_Caster[tempInteger] = Jump_Caster[MaxIndex]
Set Jump_Caster[MaxIndex] = No unit
Set Jump_LandPoint[tempInteger] = Jump_LandPoint[MaxIndex]
Set Jump_Time[tempInteger] = Jump_Time[MaxIndex]
Set Jump_Time[MaxIndex] = 0
Set Jump_FadeTime[tempInteger] = Jump_FadeTime[MaxIndex]
Set Jump_FadeTime[tempInteger] = 0.00
Set MaxIndex = (MaxIndex - 1)
Set tempInteger = (tempInteger - 1)
Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

you aren't supposed to have the turn off trigger in there.
It should be in the ITE to check if maxIndex equals 0
Which you have that is correct.

Lulz. Remember, sometimes you need to treat triggers with loving kindness and.. logic. (No offense, but it's true; try to analyze some things)
