JASS player start location

[unska]

Hey, I'm using the following code to auto-revive my heroes:

How can I modify the 13th line to spawn the hero in the triggering player's start location?

Add

• Custom script: local location loc = GetStartLocationLoc(GetPlayerId(GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit())))

at the top and replace line 13 with:

• Custom script: call ReviveHeroLoc(OURHERO,loc,true)

and add the line:

• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(loc)

at the end

Also add

• Custom Script: set loc = null

at the end, after the RemoveLocation.

btw, what things do you have to null, and why? (if i remember correctly from computer science class, null means that it is not pointing to any spot in the memory. Shouldn't that be achieved by removing/destroying it?)

This is JASS and it's failing garbage collection.
You have to null all handles which can be destroyed.

Thanks, it worked beautifully.

I'm really good at programming so it was pretty straightforward but it's hard when you don't know the function names. :/

I suggest you to download the Jass NewGen Pack. It features TESH (Trigger Editor Syntax Highlighter) which has a built in function list
