[JASS] Quick question

[Flame_Phoenix]

Guys, I have one question .... How do I display a String message for only one player, without using GroupForces ???

 

[GhostWolf]

Use the GetLocalPlayer action.
If for example you want to show it for a owner of a unit, make a line like this:

if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(yourUnit) then
      // show message
endif

.

hã !?

local player p = GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit())
local player t = GetLocalPlayer()

set t = p !??

How do I do that !? =S

 

[busterkomo]

no, just if

if GetLocalPlayer() == Your Player then
             // put all actions here

 

[GhostWolf]

I was a bit unclear, look now (edited).

[Edit] or look at hvo's code

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

Crap ... that will not help me that way hvo. What I need is a "call" to display the text to a player. If i use an "if" I will go back to the same problem .... =s

Any other solution !?

Is it like this:

if GetLocalPlayer() == p then 
"hello friends !!"
endif

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

Whats the problem with an if ?

You can always create a function that will show a text message to the player you give it, if a if is so bad.

[edit] yes what you typed there is right, beside the fact that you need to call a text function lol (example: BJDebugMsg("hello friends !!")).

... But BJDebugMsg will show up to all player rit ?
Besides how can I write a function to only 1 player ??
Anyway, I may use a groupforce, it seems the best way to do it ...

call DisplayTextToPlayer(Player(p), 0, 0, "I just display to 1 player!")

Just replace p with which player you want.

... But BJDebugMsg will show up to all player rit ?

Not in this case because you selected only the certain player you put in the condition.

Besides how can I write a function to only 1 player ??
Anyway, I may use a groupforce, it seems the best way to do it ...

You mean something like this ?

function func takes player p returns nothing
    call DisplayTextToPlayer(p, 0, 0, "I just display to player p!")
endfunction

Then you call it with "call func(somePlayer)".

And yes, I know this function is useless as it doubles the original DisplayTextToPlayer function. It was just an example.

By the way, what those x,y values mean ? never got that part lol

 

[Blue_Jeans]

Noticed that

function func takes player p returns nothing

should be

function func takes integer p returns nothing

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

Mmmmmm Well, I will text it and see what results ...

Use the GetLocalPlayer action.
