[Romek]

You're not allowed code like this. (Who would've thought that, that'd be such a good example for this rule?)

 

[KaerfNomekop]

Can anyone give a specific example of a trigger using false locals? I still don't get it. All I know is that I can hardly use JASS, and therefore would never do something like Romek's example .

lawl if you are going to do something like that, why use the damned GUI interface in the first place?

 

[Laiev]

you're not allowed to use locals in gui to make it mui, exactly what emjlr3 said at some posts ago

 

[Ignitedstar]

Sounds interesting, but it's so open... @_@

Maybe I will make something. It gives me a nice break from making my map.

 

[Cheddar]

Really tempted to do this.

 

[Dinowc]

I think I'll have to pass this one

I'll graduate in 2 weeks and there are a lot of exams -.-'

 

[KaerfNomekop]

Graduate? Wow.

I made 7 different JASS functions for 1 skill. Then I realised using pure GUI in a single trigger was fine enough. But at least I got some JASS

 

[Dinowc]

Graduate? Wow.

actually I'm ending high school xd (dunno how to say it on english and the translator said "graduate")

college still waits

 

[NeuroToxin]

Graduate was the right word.

 

[NoobImbaPro]

at 12 May my national exams start for entering university , but I have time to finish my hero ;P

 

[Ignitedstar]

I know this will sound like a dumb question, but I'm going to ask anyway. A hero meant for an AoS and a hero meant for standard RTS gameplay are entirely different. I'm hoping the grading changes depending on how we aim to design our hero. I don't want to make an RTS hero if they're going to be graded like an AoS hero (where they'll be craptacular) or the other way around (they're way too good).

I am grading on Spells and Synergy, Not the way the hero functions in different gameplay.

 

[KaerfNomekop]

Is it alright to have a subskill based off one of the hero's four skills? My hero has four active skills, but one of those supplements the others and boosts this subskill, a Bash.

 

[NeuroToxin]

Which is fine, as long as the bash is at least triggered. To get a good grade on a bash skill, just code it well, and then just create one effect on them when its created.

 

[tooltiperror]

Why should the bash have to be triggered? A hero is a hero, a hero that is implemented well with triggers is just as good as one implemented well with the Object Editor.

 

[KaerfNomekop]

I don't get it. So the effects of the Bash subskill have to be triggered, and gets graded along with the rest?

 

[NeuroToxin]

Wait. I understand what you meant.

Had to rethink your message. My fault, I apologize.

If theres a subskill added, it does NOT have to be triggered. If you add a non-triggered ability, and its part of the other spell that IS triggered, then you'll be fine. It won't be graded separately.

 

[KaerfNomekop]

Shoot. I spent two hours thinking of a subskill that could be triggered. So should I keep it? The triggered subskill seems a bit inefficient, and the Bash idea was much neater.

 

[NeuroToxin]

Once again I apologize greatly for that, I had school, so I couldn't reply early. If you can make the subskill efficient, and make it look better than a bash, than do that, but if the bash is a better idea, go with that.
