I've just read that the global variables of GUI got their problems with MUI. Therefore I wanted to make my item-spell MUI (in GUI), but something seems to be wrong with my custom scripts..

Code:
Braking Endurance
    Ereignisse
        Einheit - A unit Benutzt einen Gegenstand
    Bedingungen
        (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Gleich Breaking Endurance
    Aktionen
        Custom script:   local real udg_EnduranceUnitHP1
        Set EnduranceUnitHP1 = (Leben of (Hero manipulating item))
        Wait 5.00 seconds
        [U][I][B]Custom script:   local real udg_EnduranceUnitHP2
        Custom script:   local real udg_EnduranceDamage
        Custom script:   local group udg_EnduranceDamaged1
        Custom script:   local group udg_EnduranceDamaged2[/B][/I][/U]
        Set EnduranceUnitHP2 = (Leben of (Hero manipulating item))
        Set EnduranceDamage = (EnduranceUnitHP1 - EnduranceUnitHP2)
        Set EnduranceDamaged = (Units within 400.00 of (Position of (Hero manipulating item)) matching ((((Matching unit) is Ein Gebäude) Gleich True) and (((Owner of (Matching unit)) is an enemy of (Owner of (Hero manipulating item))) Gleich True)))
        Set EnduranceDamaged_2 = (Units within 800.00 of (Position of (Hero manipulating item)) matching ((((Matching unit) is Ein Gebäude) Gleich True) and (((Owner of (Matching unit)) is an enemy of (Owner of (Hero manipulating item))) Gleich True)))
        Einheitengruppe - Pick every unit in (Units within 400.00 of (Position of (Hero manipulating item)) matching ((((Matching unit) is Ein Gebäude) Gleich True) and (((Owner of (Matching unit)) is an enemy of (Owner of (Hero manipulating item))) Gleich True))) and do (Actions)
            Schleifen - Aktionen
                Einheitengruppe - Remove (Picked unit) from EnduranceDamaged_2
        Einheitengruppe - Pick every unit in EnduranceDamaged and do (Einheit - Cause (Hero manipulating item) to damage (Picked unit), dealing EnduranceDamage damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Normal)
        Einheitengruppe - Pick every unit in EnduranceDamaged_2 and do (Einheit - Cause (Hero manipulating item) to damage (Picked unit), dealing (EnduranceDamage / 2.00) damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Normal)
        Spezialeffekt - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Hero manipulating item) using Objects\Spawnmodels\NightElf\NECancelDeath\NECancelDeath.mdl
        Spezialeffekt - Destroy (Last created special effect)
        Einheitengruppe - Pick every unit in EnduranceDamaged and do (Spezialeffekt - Create a special effect attached to the chest of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Weapons\GlaiveMissile\GlaiveMissileTarget.mdl)
        Spezialeffekt - Destroy (Last created special effect)
        Einheitengruppe - Pick every unit in EnduranceDamaged_2 and do (Spezialeffekt - Create a special effect attached to the chest of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Weapons\GlaiveMissile\GlaiveMissileTarget.mdl)
        Spezialeffekt - Destroy (Last created special effect)
        Custom script:   call DestroyGroup (udg_EnduranceDamaged)
        Custom script:   call DestroyGroup (udg_EnduranceDamaged_2)

The marked 4 lines don't work somehow... please tell me what I'm doing wrong there^^

INCORRECT!

Yes you can, they have to be the first things in the actions...

Anyway the Groups are bad idea to use as local in GUI.

Why? Because the Actions inside the Pick Every Unit.... are created in other function and if you are using a local they can't be used in other function (exept with attachment system, but that is jass).

The same with most of if/them/else

Ahh sh#*... I read something like that but forgot it. Hmm that's pretty pretty bad. Now I need to do this spell in JASS I think, which I'm somewhat unable to do. "Hello tutorials" >.<

Edit: Seems like I was able to fix my issue. I only set EnduranceUnitHP1 as a local real with custom script because that's the only spell before the wait time :<

You don't have to use local globals in GUI to make something MUI, just FTR.

As an alternative, you can simply give all global vars an array size of 1, and
use "Player Number of (Triggering unit)" as the index value - that'll upgrade to
MPI, which will allow all players to safely run a full instance of a trigger once
at a time, at the same time.

But only do this if you know you won't have more than 1 unit per player run
the trigger at a time.

So "MPI" will not get you as high as MUI, but it's still a good choice if you know you can do with it.

The solution to all GUI related problems is to learn Jass.

You are correct, but that does not state the GUI can't fix problems itself.

Also, global locals (?) does not work more than once in one trigger. Another things is you should null it at the last part.

The one that can make it possibly GUI is with Arithmetics (with Player Number, Random Number, Number of Units and other things related to this) but of course, some things cannot be done 100%.

    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
