[JASS] Simple Question

[CrueIIntentions]

I did a brief one through a couple beginner Jass tutorials, And i was wondering do all of the BJ Functions have a native that they use? Like:

call IssueImmediateOrderBJ( GetAttacker(), "stop" )

Can i call this function without having to use (forgive me im a beginner) BJ?

I can read a Jass trigger, I cannot recreate one - yet, but im trying to stomp my way through this. I came across a trigger that had this, and wanted to see if there was a more convenient way of doing this.

If you mean use this in GUI, then you can use Custom Script, rewrite the BJ functions, or just create a JASS trigger, but using the Native in GUI is impossible, unless you edit GUI, which i dont know how to.

 

[EpixBelongToMe]

every BJ function calls another function and yes you can call these functions direct you just need the right name. in your example the name is just without the BJ.

with the newjassgen editor you have a function list where you can look them up. because some functions have completly other names and take the arguments in an other order.

And where can i find this newjassgen? If I could find it. My learning of Jass will become a whole lot easier im guessing

This is the native:

IssueImmediateOrder

Also, if you need a little native search tool, I suggest JassCraft, but you gotta mod it slightly first.

Modding it makes it use the newest natives and stuff, and its really easy. Just copy the blizzard.j and common.j files from your Warcraft folder to the Jasscraft folder. It also acts a syntax checker.

If a syntax checker/native checker is all you need, Jasscraft (with a little change), is good enough, although the new natives may not be displayed properly in the native list, but its checked correctly

NewGen gives you a searchable function list as well as syntax highlighting.
