[vJass] Variable incorrectly read or initialized?

The variable in question is PROSP_MULT[5][12] initialized in the library. The value I've been testing is PROSP_MULT[0], where i is an index for each player in a loop. Clearly initialized in the library to be 1/8 (.125), the debug message begs to differ, reading out 0.000 The part of the scope with this variable is the very last part with all those comments around it :banghead:

I made a library to setup the globals for my trigger because for some reason doing it within the scope derailed all of my other initialization functions. This is the library:

JASS:
//DISTRIBUTES GOLD FOR GOLD MINES, WELLS, FOUNTAINS
library GoldMWF initializer init uses GameModes
globals
    constant integer MINE_ID = 'hgtw'
    constant integer WELL_ID = 'h00P'
    constant integer SLAYER_ID = 'Hblm'
    constant integer PROSPER_CVAL = 103
    constant integer PROSPER_HAMMER_ID = 'I027'
    integer TIME = 0
    integer array PROSPER_TECH
    integer array PROSPER_MULT[5][12]
    integer array PROSP_LEVEL[12]
    real array PROSP_MULT[5][12]
    unit array PROSPER_SLAYER
    playerstate gold = PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD
    playerstate lumber = PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_LUMBER
    integer array MINE_COUNT[12]
    integer array WELL_COUNT[12]
endglobals

private function init takes nothing returns nothing
local integer i
    
    set PROSPER_TECH[0] = 0
    set PROSPER_TECH[1] = 'R00G'
    set PROSPER_TECH[2] = 'R00I'
    set PROSPER_TECH[3] = 'R00J'
    set PROSPER_TECH[4] = 'R00K'
    
    loop
        set PROSP_MULT[0]<i> = .125
        set PROSP_MULT[1]<i> = .167
        set PROSP_MULT[2]<i> = .25
        set PROSP_MULT[3]<i> = .34
        set PROSP_MULT[4]<i> = .67
        set PROSP_LEVEL<i> = 0
        set MINE_COUNT<i> = 0
        set WELL_COUNT<i> = 0
        exitwhen i &gt;= 11
        set i = i+1
    endloop
    call BJDebugMsg(&quot;ArrayInit end!&quot;) //this never pops up in game, but should it?
endfunction
endlibrary</i></i></i></i></i></i></i></i>


This is the part of the scope that matters:
JASS:
scope GoldMineWell initializer InitTrig
private function PERIODIC takes nothing returns nothing
local integer i = 0
local integer j = 0
local integer k = 0
local real DEBUG1 = 0
local real DEBUG2 = 0
local integer PROSP_TOTAL

    set TIME = TIME + 5
    if TIME == 60 then
        set TIME = 0
        loop
            if udg_CCYES<i> == 1 then
                call SetPlayerState(Player(i), PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD, GetPlayerState(Player(i), PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD) + 30)
            endif
            if PROSPER_SLAYER<i> != null then
                set PROSP_TOTAL = (MINE_COUNT<i> + 2 * WELL_COUNT<i>) * GOLD_MULT
                call BJDebugMsg(I2S(PROSP_TOTAL) + &quot; = PROSP TOTAL&quot;)
               
               
               //real array PROSP_MULT[5][12]
               //PROSP_LEVEL = 0 at this point, which should return 1/8 for PROSP_MULT for all Player(i)
               //However the BJDebugMsg shows 0.000
               //wtf??? it is clearly initialized in my library -_-
               
                set DEBUG1 = PROSP_MULT[PROSP_LEVEL<i>]<i> //&lt;=====THIS ONE WONT F*ING WORK
                call BJDebugMsg(R2S(DEBUG1) + &quot; = DEBUG1&quot;) //&lt;=== IT READS ZERO BUT IT SHOULD BE 1/8 or .125 ARRRG</i></i></i></i></i></i>

I did initialize it. right after the private function init takes nothing returns nothing. I think I'm the only one that does this, but I prefer not to indent anything that deals with the declaration or leak-proofing of local variables. It just helps me organize.
JASS:
private function init takes nothing returns nothing
local integer i
    
    set PROSPER_TECH[0] = 0

> I did initialize it.
No, you just declared it. It needs a value: local integer i = 0
If you use an undeclared variable, thread crashes and the function stops executing. Therefore, your Init stops as soon as it reaches set PROSP_MULT[0][i] = .125.

Oh, my bad. Thanks for pointing that out. Stupid me, now I probably don't even need to have it separated in a library...

    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
