[JASS] Very very simple local point question

[baassee]

hey

just need a quick answer

I got a local point p

I want to set it as another point that I've set into a variable but it wont work when I go

set p=udg_IF_HeroSpawnPoint()

what should I do? hate triggering jass ...

It's location - not point.

If I remembered correctly a location in jass is a point in GUI well what a heck can use GetCenterRect too ... but I feel that that one leaks ...

set p=udg_IF_HeroSpawnPoint()

Why are there parantheses? Is that a function that returns a location? I have never seen a function prefixed with udg_. I'm guessing you put the () in there by mistake, which would make udg_IF_HeroSpawnPoint a global location variable. Are you sure that you initialized udg_IF_HeroSpawnPoint? Otherwise you'd be setting p to nothing. I would also try sticking in some BJDebugMsg calls like

call BJDebugMsg("HeroSpawn X: "+GetLocationX(udg_IF_HeroSpawnPoint()))
call BJDebugMsg("HeroSpawn Y: "+GetLocationY(udg_IF_HeroSpawnPoint()))
call BJDebugMsg("p X: "+GetLocationX(p))
call BJDebugMsg("p Y: "+GetLocationY(p))

it s initilized, but I went around it using Xs Ys
