TriggerHappy:
Nothing looked significantly wrong with all the code.
I'm sure they're all okay too considering this was approved pre-1.24.
Good job, nice addition to the spells database.
Ok finally the spellpack is back online. I hope everything is working correctly since I hadn't enough time to test all 20 spells in every situation. But I think those spells will do their job fine. The new version will also a good version for newbies who have no clue of memory leaks etc. Well enjoy.
Everyone uses them. And using your system doesn't make it better. You're not even giving me a reason. It would just make everything easier. Having 10000 systems in one map which do the same and are only different in their name is good, heh?
Also, your reaction kinda tells me that you're acting like a little child which thinks that his system are better. mimimi, use other systems then.. I'm going to do that. Enjoy your faggotry. /rage
Well I see your point and I did also saw your point before. And sure using those standart system would good for the spellpack etc. and btw I never said in any comment before that my system AREZ tehz shit... Im just saying that I'll just use my own systems. Also I don't need you to give any reasons why I do that just respect my choice, be polite and don't try to flame me... and btw to the point:

Sure using one single system could spare some space
but imo its not bad to use your own
especially due Hankys systems are definitely not bad and may have some other advantages (he has a reason to do so)

I think hanky is not doing anything wrong by using his own systems. only because most people use timerutils it is not a responsability that everybody has to use timerutils.
take dat!
*sigh* I just wanted to hear a reason why he's using his systems instead of the standard ones. Sorry if I might've been a bit pissed off. I also didn't say his systems are bad, they're good indeed.
Well there are some point just some examples:
- if there appear a bug it will be much easier for me to fix it since I know how I coded my systems
- I can make the systems like I want them to be
etc.
Which is not always good for portability. Why have 20 Knockback systems, each coded by a different coder who thought he can do a better job at reinventing the wheel than all those before him in one map, where you could have only one if everyone just used that one?
If you think you need a feature another system doesnt offer you, why dont you take your time to either request that feature or extend that system?
Would you jump off a cliff if everyone else does? Got it?
Would you not eat an apple, even if everyone told you its good for you and to you they taste delicious (provided you have one at hand and are moderately hungry)? That might be a more accurate simile.
Youre submitting this. I see room for improvement, and he did as well. I wont respect your choice unless you can prove me wrong in that using your own libraries is the inferior approach to the problem.
Edit2:
I'm still for high rec, preferingly for directors cut x)
Well the fix for 1.24 was a pretty much quick and dirty solution and well I don't care what you are saying I'll keep my systems. And once again If you don't like the systems then just use an other spellpack...
Edit: And btw the code hasn't be updated since 7 months or something so of course some parts are old now... But I don't care the systems and spells are working ok with a good speed... so meh
Deaod said:
Edit: And while im at it...The timer system you use is inferior to TimerUtils on many levels (API, safety, efficiency, portability, ...).
Yes I know that the Timer Recycler look right now pretty much messed up... but how I said the TimerRecycler was affected by the 1.24 patch and I just made for now a quick and dirty solution maybe I'll update the pack soon... dunno how soon because of real life...
When a person uses his own systems, first of all he creates them for his own needs and thus comply efficiently with his coding style. Second of all, he knows all that is going around. Third of all, that makes him a more acquainted coder through practice.
If you think that using common systems is better for maps, then hey, learn Jass and update the spells you import...
It's of no ones business if the creator uses his own systems or not... as Hanky already said, don't use this spellpack if you don't like it. He was already nice enough to create this for the public, so in-case it doesn't have any major flaws and it's a matter of a pikosecond due to no using a system, don't nag.
And about TimerUtils, well imo it's a flawed system due to seeking for extra speed, i'd prefer taking care of the leaks it might leave behind instead for the cost of a pikosecond, if not a fraction of that.
Yeah! It up again!
Its probably the most used spellpack ever. You could see Mystic Net almost everywhere (I'm saying Mystic Net 'cos its the one I see the most )
BTW, I don't see anything wrong with him using whatever system he likes, so let's stop this argument over nothing. There is no standard BTW, unless Blizzard sets one.
PS: Nice comeback -JonNny, although I shouldn't be encouraging these kinds of stuff.
PPS: I ruined your 300 rep with 2 more xD
PPPS: Great to see Vast Planes too. It was totally ownage when I saw it, was my first time participating in a contest, that time...

Where to start?
Okay, first of all the argument that using own systems because they fit more into his coding style is bullshit. I see no reason why TimerUtils or xefx shouldnt fit. Second, yeah, he knows whats happening. But he could also spend the time trying to understand what others did to achieve the effect. And third, i agree that practice is good. But dont practice when others may want to use it.
Oh, i can update his spells, but it would be easier for me to just rewrite them.
Yes, its OUR business if Hanky uses external systems or not. He submitted these spells to THW. He obviously wants these approved again. Using external systems improves the code. Tell me one reason why he should be allowed to use an inferior approach to his problems in his submission.
TimerUtils doesnt leak. And taking care of YOUR leaks is out of its scope. It also doesnt focus purely on speed (if it did, why would it have non-debug-mode safety checks?).
BTW, I don't see anything wrong with him using whatever system he likes, so let's stop this argument over nothing. There is no standard BTW, unless Blizzard sets one.
I do. Its the NIH syndrome at work (see the link in my previous post). And using arbitrary systems oftentimes comes with less efficiency, and unsafe/untested/inflexible code. This "argument over nothing" is very important because its an argument for or against a certain attitude (which makes this argument not restricted to just this specific incident).
And yes, there is a standard. No, it was not set by Blizzard. It was set by the community because having standards simplifies code production and sharing of code.
Well true most of the script have to be totally recoded. But right now there's no time to do that. And well I also need to recode most of my systems since they are pretty outdated. The only thing I need to do that is time which I don't got currently. But still I like to you use my own systems, maybe I should just make 2 versions of the spellpack. One using those standart systems and one just using my system. Would that be alright for you Deaod?

Well, as it keeps on stashing timers to be reused later, you might at an instance reach a max number of timers which would never be used again in the game.
And Deaod, I understand your point, and all you say make sense and is sort of right. But I mean, when I code, I code cause I enjoy coding and it's a good manner of filling up my free time. Using other people's systems, in my opinion, makes it less enjoyable.
Well, also, in my opinion is out of place, and it's similar to the GUI vs. Jass argument which won't be getting to any agreements so let's just stop it.
And well Deaod, since we're in the topic... you can do some thread demanding that a new rule is added which requires the usage of common systems whenever needed. Then, you've got what you want and ended this argument
Oh sure I forgot to mention that I added a RakEnRoL filter, as soon as you use my spells your pc will start lagging... /irony
Well I won't update this spellpack anyway. And as I already mentioned the code is crap since H2I got fixed. And really who have the time to rebuild something like 16 spells + systems...
Awesome spells, its really a pain for me getting them to work when copying them in my map. Good thing there's a tutorial tnx for that, now how can I edit the damage of the boomerang?
I am not good for JAss, I have tried it with the program (NewGen) and it still does not work, import both the dummy.mdx, the dummy missile, the ability and also what is the JASS of the spell in this case JadeShield and the folder main and correctly put the dummymissile and spell numbers and nothing, could someone help me?
I was able to import this just fine, so the issue is not with the resource itself. NewGen doesn't exist any more because most of its functionality was rolled into the actual editor, and using such an extremely outdated, deprecated, and specifically unsupported editor hack is not recommended. There is actually zero reason to ever use NewGen ever again. Second, give an actual description of the issue you are having instead of saying something completely uninformative like:
You described the steps. You know them. Clearly you did something wrong. Nobody can magically guess which step you messed up so go through it again from scratch. (I will not check your map for you if you post it here because you need to learn to do this for yourself.)
Copy all relevant imports over first, changing their file paths to match if necessary.
Save. Close and reopen your map because imports are weird.
Copy all OE data first. Then go back through and check that all the relevant OE lines that refer to other things (like buffs or ability lists or upgrades used, etc.) properly point to the new stuff you just imported.
Save.
In the trigger editor of your map, navigate to the top menu and select JassHelper > Enable vJASS. This is a setting that's off by default because Blizzard are absolute fucking troglodytes and don't understand that there is almost no possible situation would you want to turn that off.
Copy all of the relevant triggers into your map. (This includes generic categories and other systems upon which these skills may depend.)
Save.
Go through the triggers and change all the rawcodes to match the new rawcodes given to the abilities when you pasted them (if they did not retain the same rawcodes).
The reason I'm telling you to save is to be able to go back to that point and try to reimport the rest if something goes wrong.
