Attaching Structs/Integers to Triggers

[Cohadar]

Lets cut the long story short:

This system is useless because:
* it is too hard to use
* it lags if you have more than 50 attachments

Any of those two would be enough for system to fail,
so this one fails two times.

Your main and only argument is that this sys has a fast retrieve time
"once you set it to work"
And I say it does not matter.

Replace your system with CSData or ABC and it will still work the same.
(there is no way you would be able to see the speed difference)
Hell if you replace it with gamecache there would still be no difference.

I suggest you give up on this sys - completely.
That means stop using it even in your map.
You would be better learning one of more generally accepted ones
because you would be able to share your spells with the public (in both directions)

I am sorry but nice ideas are simply not good enough sometimes.
I hope you take my advice.

Actually, it lags if you have more than 500, or try to do 50 at once.

> it is too hard to use
I suppose here it fails being used by the general public. Is it worth releasing as a system anyway, or would it be graveyarded?

> I suggest you give up on this sys - completely.

Here I have to disagree. I'm not using it to create spells as I explained, and the code is unlikely to be released to the community.

Personally I'm going to decide whether or not to use this on a case-by-case basis. And for this case at least, I can't realistically decide against it.

I still don’t get what the big deal is, friggin use CSData ppl, its all of 20 lines, and you only need to know 2 function calls

And if you really care to code like a moron, use ABC so it tells you what you do idiotically

All this talk of alternate methods always ends in the same way

Slower then the fastest method, faster then the slowest method, you suck, I suck, can't we all just get along.....

 

[Cohadar]

And if you like to show off because you are a "pro" use CSData so you can enjoy 5 hours of pro debugging of your own pro errors.

If only we had a system to tell us when we behave idiotically in real life...

 

[Jesus4Lyf]

Hahaha...

Nah, if you wanna show how pro you are, use the execcount method this thread is about.

Anyway Cohadar, I think I've designed that system...

constant function AmIBehavingLikeAnIdiot takes nothing returns true

Oh shame... Syntax error... I guess it prooves itself.

But seriously there is a reason for using this system. It's the fastest thing possible, if used appropriately. But I don't think theres much more to discuss.

OK, I posted this attachment method as a system, titled Key Triggers.

And if you pissed off Vex (witch I quite hard to do seriously) than you deserve your faith.
