[JASS] Importing jass question.

[Rugarus]

I've recently been given jass scripts from an old map, that I'm trying to use in a new map of the same type of game. They are all .j files. I've tried to create separate triggers for each spell, ability, unit etc. But it is erroring. Am I supposed to import these jass files via the import manager? Or do I just have some error in the code itself?



I have all the files in triggers already.

When I compile the first issue I get is this.

Unable to find Hidden Natives, I've got another trigger that I entitled "Hidden Natives"

Which contains

// hidden natives from common.ai
native GetUnitGoldCost takes integer unitid returns integer
native GetUnitWoodCost takes integer unitid returns integer
native GetUnitBuildTime takes integer unitid returns integer
//constant native GetFoodMade takes integer unitId returns integer
//constant native GetFoodUsed takes integer unitId returns integer
//constant native GetUnitFoodMade takes unit whichUnit returns integer
//constant native GetUnitFoodUsed takes unit whichUnit returns integer

If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great, I'd love to make use of all these spells and everything else would save me a ton of time than redoing everything manually.

The whole folder I've been given looks like this.

I don't have jasscraft though, I have Sharp Craft world editor. Would that matter, would it not recognize certain syntax used in these files?

Try to out the map in Same Folder as the .J

What do you mean "out" the map?

 

[IcemanBo]

Sorry, mobile.Try the map to be in the same folder as the .j /move it there, so the //!import command has a valid source.

You can use an absolute path.

C:\Users\<You>\jass\script.j

JassHelper 0.A.0.0

Thanks, I've now got this issue happening.

In my import script, It's importing a script entitled utilsTriggers.j

When I run the map, it error's on this bit of code.

function DisableListedTriggers takes nothing returns nothing
  local integer i
  for i = 0 to NumTriggers
    call DisableTrigger (Triggers[i])
  endfor
endfunction

It says it doesn't recognize the 'i' variable, yet it's declared above the for loop. Any idea what the issue is?

 

[TriggerHappy]

JASS doesn't have a for loop.

function DisableListedTriggers takes nothing returns nothing
  local integer i
  loop
    exitwhen i >= NumTriggers
    call DisableTrigger (Triggers[i])
    set i = i + 1
  endloop
endfunction

JASS doesn't have a for loop.

function DisableListedTriggers takes nothing returns nothing
  local integer i
  loop
    exitwhen i >= NumTriggers
    call DisableTrigger (Triggers[i])
    set i = i + 1
  endloop
endfunction

This script was used in WE for a warcraft 3 game. Any idea how it was used if it doesn't recognize for loops?
Thanks btw.

Anyone?

Anyone?

The developer probably had a preprocessing tool which simulated for loops by ultimately converting them to while loops.

aka cohadars version of jasshelper

By chance do you have a download link to this jasshelper program?

JNGP 2.07 should have Cohader's included. Though, I would not recommend to rely on Cohader's JassHelper, as it happens from time to time that weird bugs occur. (Cohader's JassHelper Report) I would recommand to use Vexorian's JassHelper compatible scripts, or to rewrite (request it maybe) cohader-specific code.
