[JASS] ?UnitHasAbility?

[Diehard@Azeroth]

SOMEONE PLEASE DELETE THIS THREAD, I ALREADY FOUND A TECHNIQUE VIA JASS.
edit: Earth-Fury already gave me it in native format. <faster process )

 

[AmadiTheGreat]

Level of [AbilityYouWantToCheckHere] for [UnitYouWantToCheckHere] greater than 0

If the unit doesn't have the ability, the level is 0

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

eh thanks for help though it wont work since the ability is not accessable. Il just make up my own way. Btw i already knew that technique and it wont work. Il make up a function in jass or try to find it in common.j etc in wc3jass scripts.

 

[Earth-Fury]

native GetUnitAbilityLevel takes unit whichUnit, integer abilcode returns integer

If the unit has the ability, added by triggers or in the object editor, visible on the command card or not, this will return the level of that ability which the unit has. Otherwise, it will return 0.

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

hmm i guess a native is better than bj's thanks ^^
btw since im really experienced in gui i really want to learn some jass, i mean functions make life easier, any REAL tutorial you guys reccommend about functions? >>
il give you +rep since your native is better than my use of bj's.

Also, you could have just converted a GUI trigger to find the function.

Also, you could have just converted a GUI trigger to find the function.

Which only would have helped if he knew how to do it in GUI, which he didn't seem to.

Check my sig for the tutorial section here at THW, and also go download JASS NewGen. The latest version includes Trigger Editor Syntax Highlighting, which includes a function finder directly in the trigger editors window.

you jass ? xD
well Im glad you find the "true path"
btw you can report your post with

with a deleting request

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

Purple poot, i know how to do easy level comparisons in gui...
besides converting it would mostly result in bjs which i dont want..
please dont judge me the wrong way since im not new to mapmaking in gui..
And you cant compare spell levels when in gui unless ur using ability id's.. for ex, locust or replica of locust..

im saying this because i starting mapmaking with gui some time ago so dont get the wrong idea..

Need_O2:
well jass is still a long path for me since im really used to gui but its much more easier to use when you get used to it i guess ^^

 

[PurplePoot]

Ah, k, nevermind then. Anyhow, it's fine if you get BJs: just use JASSCraft's Native Searcher to identify the natives that those BJs call, and use those instead. (Plus, the BJs generally have similar names)

 

[Earth-Fury]

why use JASSCraft when we have TESH in the newest NewGen? ;P (NewGen link in my sig)

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

kk man, il use NewGen though one problem, doesnt it require third party tools?

 

[Earth-Fury]

it IS a third party tool... it uses DLL injection to modify the world editors code at run time....

If you don't know too much about JASS, NewGen is probably going to be extremely confusing unless you know C++ because they have similar content.

But yea, TESH and NewGen is good. If you want to do some quick JASS, it isn't really fun to open up your folders, hook-up TESH and wait for NewGen to open. ;P

 

[PurplePoot]

Haven't tested it myself, but also apparently the searcher for NewGen isn't complete (aka it's missing some stuff). Also, as far as I know (I never saw differently), it doesn't show you the contents of the functions.

But yeah, if you're scripting sans WE (or if you don't have wc3 on that computer) JC is nice to have around.

To check if a unit had an ability you can simply

Just check the level of the ability if it is greater than 0 then that means the unit has an ability.

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

i know... lol i already knew the technique though but i wanted it in native format and i already got it from earth-fury...

ty anyways..

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

meh il just keep away from NewGen atm, id rather do some systems for the public and work on a project with v3bu since i have some heavy triggering to do.
