Destructible group in Jass

[wellwish3r]

Stupid question, but what is a destructible group in JASS?

EDIT: Okay, i just saw that there isn't even a destructible group variable type in the GUI variable menu. So does a destructible group even exist?

 

[WolfieeifloW]

No, I don't believe so.
What exactly do you need it for?


EDIT: 4,000 posts.
My lord .

It doesn't. We have EnumDestrutablesInRect(...) or something like that, where can filter destructables we don't want enumerated.

 

[wellwish3r]

I was just wondering, cause storing them in a variable would shorten some functions/triggers considerably (Don't have to EnumDestructablesInRect() all the time)

 

[WolfieeifloW]

Hmm..
You (Or someone) I'm sure could make a custom Destructible group.

i doubt its me, i started using JASS 5 days ago

I made TriggerGroups a long, long time ago.
So I could make this without problem.

Though I don't see the use for it...
Why would you need it?

 

[wellwish3r]

Why would you need it?

as mentioned before, it would just look nicer/be shorter

 

[Romek]

Nicer for what?
Be shorter than what?

I've never needed to store desctructables in a group.
And nothing is shorter or faster than EnumDestructablesInRange...

 

[T.s.e]

Any replacement alternatives to EnumDestructablesInRect would be considerably less efficient and be far more complicated to make than to use the native, nevertheless how ugly it might be.

Here for example:

function MakeDestroBossOneVul takes nothing returns nothing
    if GetDestructableTypeId(GetEnumDestructable()) == 'B002' then
        call SetDestructableInvulnerable(GetEnumDestructable(),false)
    endif
endfunction

function MakeDestroBossTwoVul takes nothing returns nothing
    if GetDestructableTypeId(GetEnumDestructable()) == 'B001' then
        call SetDestructableInvulnerable(GetEnumDestructable(),false)
    endif
endfunction

function Trig_MakeDoodVul_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer id = GetUnitTypeId(GetTriggerUnit())
    if id == 'n00N' then
        call EnumDestructablesInRect(GetPlayableMapRect(),null, function MakeDestroBossOneVul)
    endif
    if id == 'n00O' then
        call EnumDestructablesInRect(GetPlayableMapRect(),null, function MakeDestroBossTwoVul)
    endif
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_MakeDoodVul takes nothing returns nothing
    local trigger t = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ( t, EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_DEATH )
    call TriggerAddAction( t, function Trig_MakeDoodVul_Actions )
endfunction

Here for example it would save the if statements (in the action functions), and i just like to store stuff in variable, that's all

 

[Romek]

That's still probably faster than any 'destructablegroup' anybody could create.
Natives are extremely fast.

That's not particularly long either.

 

[WolfieeifloW]

I can see the use in it;
But as mentioned, natives are fast so just go with them .
