[Solved] Syntax error for no reason

[Dr. Boom]

Moin moin =)

I just wanted to create a little map for no reason and already having a little problem, without doing anything. I just created a new map, want to save it and a syntax error shows up:

function GetFadeFromSeconds takes real seconds returns integer
    if (seconds != 0) then
        return 128 / seconds
    else
        return 10000
    endif
endfunction

In the error window the "else" is marked and the error message is "line 7118:Cannot convert returned value from real to integer". I checked the trigger editor; nothing. Also also enabled UMSWE and things like that to test if this would fix the problem, but nothing, it's just a new empty map without adding, editing or deleting something.

I think I stood to long out of this scene, since its nothing I know from the past, so please can someone help me a bit here? =D

Thanks - Greetings - Peace

You are trying to divide an integer by a real. By default, that converts it to a real.

Thus you must change the line to:

return R2I(128 / seconds)

EDIT: I just realized that is a BJ function. You should get the latest patch. This is what it should look like in the latest Blizzard.j:

function GetFadeFromSeconds takes real seconds returns integer
    if (seconds != 0) then
        return 128 / R2I(seconds)
    endif
    return 10000
endfunction

Long ago blizzard wasn't very careful with returns. The return bug allowed such statements, and it would typecast the real 128/seconds to an integer since the "returns" portion expected an integer. Ever since 1.24, they fixed that and fixed the faulty functions that relied on the return bug.
