Help me clean this. There is a syntax error.

call SetUnitX(rifleAttacker,(GetLocationX(PolarProjectionBJ(GetUnitLoc(centerUnit)),256,i,270))

I'm new to jass and it will take me ages to debug this.

I'm pretty sure all I need to do is move parentheses around, if anyone could help me out i'd be grateful.

Thank you,

edit - i may have changed it a bit trying to debug myself..

    local integer i = 0
    call SetUnitX(rifleAttacker,(GetLocationX(PolarProjectionBJ(GetUnitLoc(centerUnit),256,i)),270))
//               |     unit    |                                  real                             |
//                                           |                       location                     |
//                                                             |         location     | r |r|
//                                                                        |   unit   |
    //SetUnitX(unit,real)
    //GetLocationX(location)
    //PolarProjectionBJ(location,real,real)
    //GetUnitLoc(unit)

You're missing a ), somewhere... Try putting one after centerUnit.

 

[Expelliarmus]

    local integer i = 0 //??
    local real angle = 20.//angle
    local real dist  = 256. //distance
    local location sourceloc = GetUnitLoc(centerUnit)
     // PolarProjectionBJ(source, dist, angle)
    local location p = PolarProjectionBJ(sourceloc, dist, angle)
    //call SetUnitX (  rifleAttacker ,       GetLocationX(    PolarProjectionBJ(GetUnitLoc(centerUnit) , 256, i), 270     )    ) //?? 
    // 270. is??
    call SetUnitX( rifleAttacker, GetLocationX( p ))

This is an example... just wanting to know your aim. Do not use this code - it's leaking a lot =P

this is only a portion of the code - ill post the entire thing tomorow so you can see what im going for.

are you sure im missing a )?
I counted the ( and ) and they're equal...

You counted incorrectly. Try this:

call SetUnitX(rifleAttacker, GetLocationX(PolarProjectionBJ(GetUnitLoc(centerUnit), 256, i*270)))

You have three real arguments there should only be 2.

Lies. It's i*270, not i, 270.

Edit: I need to see the code at the first post, not the one that's 2 posts above this one :<

I had to find some way to remove the extra argument so I took a guess.

Edit - nevermind this post for now.
