About the function.. I think I already self taught my self about it.. It something like:


JASS:
function blahblah takes integer a, unit b returns nothing
local integer c = 0
loop
exitwhen c > a
call CreateUnitsLoc(b,<something>)
set c = c + 1 
endfunction

More or less this is how functions work.

Basically they take somthing and return somthing.

You can think of a function like this:

Code:
[B]function[/B] [I]name[/I] [B]takes[/B] [I]somthing[/I] [B]returns[/B] [I]somthing[/I]

Example:

JASS:

function worms takes integer a returns integer
  return a * 3
endfunction


If you want to take several things you seperate with a comma.

JASS:

function worms_rock takes integer a, unit b, player c returns nothing
  // Do somthing
endfunction


You can also take nothing but still return somthing

JASS:

function pink_worms takes nothing returns player
  return Player(6)
endfunction


Notice: Return will skip remaining actions so use it wisely.

This is functions in short, however they are much more complicated, this is one of the most facinating features in JASS, too bad the class was over before you got learn about it... I'm thinking about writing a tutorial.

Yeah, they are pretty easy to learn if you have JASSCraft. Just look at a BJ, see what it says: takes type Name, type Name, type Name, returns nothing/something

Sorry to see you're closing the class. That sux

So, I guess its time for me to move into the more advance of Jass.. I've learned enough from this class.. Thank you for teaching me the basics... I'll start resuming my first map.. I halt it because of this... Learn Jass first before creating a map would give me a better feature than GUI could although I know much about GUI......

I was just thinking, I looked over the lessons and I know enough JASS to teach the rest of that.
Anyone want me to post the next few lessons???

Oh, I still haven't checked out those systems.
Once I come to a need for one, I will probably.
But I haven't found a need yet.

I would like to sign-up for the class. I know it's a bit late, but I really want to learn JASS. I read Vexorian's guide to the basics and now I just wanna learn anything I can. I find this very interesting and I'm willing to do the assignments. Thanks in advanced.

go Here , i learnt Jass off Here! now i know basic commands like:
JASS:

function Trig_LearnJassThere_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    call CreateNUnitsAtLoc( 4, 'ewsp', Player(0), GetRectCenter(GetPlayableMapRect()), bj_UNIT_FACING )
endfunction

//==============================
function InitTrig_LearnJassThere takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_LearnJassThere = CreateTrigger()
    call TriggerRegisterTimerEventPeriodic( gg_trg_LearnJassThere, 2 )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_LearnJassThere, function Trig_LearnJassThere_Actions)
endfunction


It was very helpful!! (btw i wrote that ^^^ without looking at JC/WE any of that... xD)

You do realize that you have revived a topic which had an ending post dated on July 2, 2007 right?

And I already learned JASS...:p

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    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
