Hello again, Im back with yet another question.

I made an alliance trigger (like you type -ally red and become red's ally) but it doesn't work. Ill post it here, and if anyone could help me figure out why it's broken, then I will thank you greatly.
Code: 
Set String Variables
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set Teamstring[1] = Red
        Set Teamstring[2] = Blue
        Set Teamstring[3] = Teal
        Set Teamstring[4] = Purple
        Set Teamstring[5] = Yellow
        Set Teamstring[6] = Orange
        Set Teamstring[7] = Green
        Set Teamstring[8] = Pink
        Set Teamstring[9] = Gray
        Set Teamstring[10] = Light Blue
        Set Teamstring[11] = Dark Green

Code: 
Ally
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 8 (Pink) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 9 (Gray) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 10 (Light Blue) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
        Player - Player 11 (Dark Green) types a chat message containing -ally  as A substring
    Conditions
        (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 6)) Equal to -ally 
    Actions
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to 11, do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                If ((Substring(Teamstring[(Integer A)], 1, 5)) Equal to (Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 12))) then do (Player - For (Triggering player), turn Alliance (non-aggression) On toward (Player((Integer A)))) else do (Do nothing)
                If ((Substring(Teamstring[(Integer A)], 1, 5)) Equal to (Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 12))) then do (Player - For (Triggering player), turn Shared vision On toward (Player((Integer A)))) else do (Do nothing)

Code: 
Unally
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 8 (Pink) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 9 (Gray) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 10 (Light Blue) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
        Player - Player 11 (Dark Green) types a chat message containing -unally  as A substring
    Conditions
        (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 8)) Equal to -unally 
    Actions
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to 11, do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                If ((Substring(Teamstring[(Integer A)], 1, 5)) Equal to (Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 12))) then do (Player - For (Triggering player), turn Alliance (non-aggression) Off toward (Player((Integer A)))) else do (Do nothing)
                If ((Substring(Teamstring[(Integer A)], 1, 5)) Equal to (Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 12))) then do (Player - For (Triggering player), turn Shared vision Off toward (Player((Integer A)))) else do (Do nothing)

Tell me if I'm wrong, but WarCraft coding works the same as any other coding?

As in..
ABC
012

Right?
So... Your code would need to do:
Code: 
If ((Substring(Teamstring[(Integer A)], 0, 4)) Equal to (Substring((Entered chat string), 6, 11))) then do (Player - For (Triggering player), turn Alliance (non-aggression) On toward (Player((Integer A)))) else do (Do nothing)

I always get confusing switching back and forth with JASS and VB. >.>

Not to spoil anything, but if this (WarCraft) was like StarCraft, wouldn't you be able to change your Alliance in-game without triggers? The button beside Log on the screen's top left?

Anyway, can you give some info on what works and what doesn't or does it just not work entirely?

Slightly Off Topic.. Well completly off topic?
PS: Going to sleep now, usually only on forum on weekdays, however its the Winter Break!! no school!! So i have plenty of time tommorow:D

Ah, but I put 1,5 because don't I have to skip the dash?
Click to expand...
Code: 
        (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 6)) Equal to -ally
At the end of the string "-ally " there is a space.
Blah, GUI stinks, makes me solution invalid. In JASS, I would be right though. :p

Perhaps you should try to fix your variables. I don't get why you would do substrings on constants.
Code: 
        Set Teamstring[1] = Red
        Set Teamstring[2] = Blue
        Set Teamstring[3] = Teal
        Set Teamstring[4] = Purple
        Set Teamstring[5] = Yellow
        Set Teamstring[6] = Orange
        Set Teamstring[7] = Green
        Set Teamstring[8] = Pink
        Set Teamstring[9] = Gray
        Set Teamstring[10] = Light Blue
        Set Teamstring[11] = Dark Green
Change to:
Code: 
        Set Teamstring[1] = Red
        Set Teamstring[2] = Blu
        Set Teamstring[3] = Tea
        Set Teamstring[4] = Pur
        Set Teamstring[5] = Yel
        Set Teamstring[6] = Ora
        Set Teamstring[7] = Gre
        Set Teamstring[8] = Pin
        Set Teamstring[9] = Gra
        Set Teamstring[10] = Lig
        Set Teamstring[11] = Dar


Another solution would be to use player numbers.
Basic setup:
Code: 
Ally
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -ally as A substring
    Conditions
    Actions
        Player - Make (Triggering player) treat (Player((Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 8)))))) as an Ally with shared vision

It still doesnt seem to be working, but maybe I missed something.

If there is anyone who actually has a working Alliance trigger that they know for sure works, would you mind sharing it?

NOTE: this trigger is for making people neutral; but hopefully you can modify it to do what you want.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
