The power of award..
Why GetIssuedOrderByIdBJ()?

 

[Chaosy]

Beats me, I forgot to change it in the map, I edited the code snippet though.
Not touched wc3 in over half a year so I am a bit rusty xD

The power of award..

Shh.

 

[Flux]

Sorry for the thread derail, I just think it's pointless to do this stuffs (you already know) just for the award. Participating in contest is better if you ask me. The award there is a better ego booster. But for other people familiarizing with JASS, it's the complete opposite. These missions will help them a lot.

But how will the award work? What if a new mission is added?

 

[Chaosy]

Considering me low score at the last spell contest I hope to pick up a thing or two, and as I said I have not worked with wc3 for a while so it is good practice to refresh memory.
Though I do agree that it is pointless to some extent if you already know stuff.

But how will the award work? What if a new mission is added?

Thought of this myself, no clue.
Maybe it will be like complete 10 missions, does not matter which ones.

Participating in contest is better if you ask me

But then you actually have to be good

 

[IcemanBo]

Please use one thread for one submission, that discussions don't get complex.

 

[Flux]

Oh I see, so you're trying to improve yourself. In that case, I take back what I said about being pointless but I suggest do not go for the 'easy' missions.

 

[Chaosy]

I do it for both.
Which is why I take them one at a time hoping it gradually becomes harder, like a warmup.
I am honestly stuck at the third one due me being forced to apply hashtables somehow xD

I'll post number 3 and upwards in new threads then.

 

[IcemanBo]

Chaosy, try to add a building, and then train a unit. You will probably get no proper name. ( I can't test atm)

Flux convined me, too: Changelog

 

[Chaosy]

I tested it and it works.

 

[IcemanBo]

Are you sure? As said, preplace builders, and try especialy this
"and 'hbar' should also print "Barracks", so the user can easily see which order is behind the id."

 

[Chaosy]

original

I placed a barracks and trained a few footmen, it worked.

Apparently it cannot convert to string but the id and name gets displayed

edit: oh wait you want me to build it literary

edit2: this is what happens

Repair is when the pesant is actually building and the other one is while walking there

            integer order = GetIssuedOrderId();
            string x = GetObjectName(order);
           
            if(x=="Default string") {
                x = GetUnitName(GetTriggerUnit()) + "'s current order id is: " + I2S(order) + " " + OrderId2String(order);
            } else {
                x = GetUnitName(GetTriggerUnit()) + "'s current order id is: " + I2S(order) + " " + x;
            }
           
            BJDebugMsg(x);
        }

            trigger t = CreateTrigger();
            TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ(t, EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_ISSUED_POINT_ORDER);
            TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ(t, EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_ISSUED_TARGET_ORDER);

            t = null;
        }
    }
//! endzinc

 

[IcemanBo]

Yes. And it should print "Barracks", too, next to the id.

 

[Chaosy]

Yeah it does that now

 

[IcemanBo]

Indeed.
Btw, some testing conditions would be good, so I don't have to do it on my own always; you might also use the template map.
