Hey,

I got a little problem with initializing the struct I have
Here is the script:

JASS:
library PlayerData
    struct Playor extends array //using Playor as player is a var type and Player is a function
        player ThisPlayer
        
        implement PlayerInfo
        
        static method operator [] takes player p returns thistype
            return GetPlayerId(p)
        endmethod
        
        static method operator []= takes player p, thistype this returns nothing
            set Playor[p] = this
        endmethod
        
        static method get takes player p returns thistype
            return Playor[p]
        endmethod
        
        method onCreate takes nothing returns nothing
            // I think I need to input something here to link an array value to a specific player but don&#039;t know what<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />
        endmethod
     endstruct   
endlibrary

So how can I link each array value to a specific player as I also have a few methods in a module linked to this.
So I want to be able to do something like:

JASS:
function a takes nothing returns nothing
local Playor p = Playor[GetTriggerPlayer()]

call p.giveGold(500) //this would give the triggering player 500 gold
endfunction

this is the giveGold method:
JASS:
    method giveGold takes integer gold returns nothing
       call SetPlayerState(.ThisPlayer, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD, GetPlayerState(.ThisPlayer, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD) + gold)
    endmethod


So how would I do this?

Thanks!

Sometimes ago, i did something simple with Players and it work.

JASS:
library PlayerData

    struct PlayerData extends array
        static method operator[] takes player whichPlayer returns thistype
            return GetPlayerId(whichPlayer)
        endmethod

        method operator player takes nothing returns player
            return Player(this)
        endmethod
        
        method giveGold takes integer gold returns nothing
            call SetPlayerState(.player, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD, GetPlayerState(.player, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD) + gold)
        endmethod
        
        boolean displayExperience
        boolean displaySpellDamage
        real goldPerSecond
        
        private static method onInit takes nothing returns nothing
            local integer i = 0
            
            loop
                exitwhen i &gt; 11
                set thistype[Player(i)].displayExperience = true
                set thistype[Player(i)].displaySpellDamage = true
                set thistype[Player(i)].goldPerSecond = 0.
                set i = i + 1
            endloop
        endmethod
    endstruct

endlibrary

in the method operator player you return Player(this) where does the this stand for in this one the player id?
