Why do my triggers look like this?

Just a quick question.

Why do my triggers look like this now? Is this the life i have to lead now or can I change them back to the old GUI?

Looks like some kind of raw data view? Does this just affect 1 specific map or all maps like even a blank map with melee initi trigger?

You probably have a modified old triggerdata.txt and Blizzard changed how triggerdata.txt works ( in the last patch before offical release). In short it fused with TriggersStrings.txt.

Each Action, Event and Condition inside Triggerdata.txt now got:
_Parameters
_DisplayName

DoNothing=0,nothing
_DoNothing_DisplayName="Do Nothing"
_DoNothing_Parameters="Do nothing"
_DoNothing_Defaults=
_DoNothing_Category=TC_NOTHING

CameraSetSmoothingFactorBJ=0,real
_CameraSetSmoothingFactorBJ_DisplayName="Change Camera Smoothing Factor"
_CameraSetSmoothingFactorBJ_Parameters="Change camera smoothing factor to ",~Factor
_CameraSetSmoothingFactorBJ_Defaults=1
_CameraSetSmoothingFactorBJ_Limits=0,_
_CameraSetSmoothingFactorBJ_Category=TC_CAMERA

All maps. Even blank ones.

Don't know how I'd have a modified triggerdata.txt considering I didn't modify it.

So you don't have folder called UI in your warcraft 3 installation which contains that triggerdata.txt file?

I have one from 2018. Is there something you'd like me to do with it?

All gui actions/events/conditions have now displayed names inside triggerdata.txt which is new, hence your old file won't have it. It previously was taken from triggerstrings.txt, but currently not.

If you have custom GUI that you wana keep you have to update your custom triggerdata.txt to the new format including the Displayed Name and Parameters Why do my triggers look like this?.
Depending how big your additionas are, it might be faster to extract the current one from the game and add your custom ones again, so you won't have to update Blizzard's GUI.

In case you don't want that custom GUI you might disable it for now. Maybe rename the files by adding "not" as first word.

But somehow I would wait with updating the file. The Editor uses no translated texts for non english users right now, hence that file might change again in some patches.

Changing the file name to "NotTriggerData" fixed it. Thank you. That's all I wanted.
