How to -hhn? Hide Hero Name

[NightFelix]

-hhn stand for -hideheroname which the DotA game use for hiding their hero name behind of their players name.

What I'm going to do here is -repick to remove the hero name. When player type repick will remove his/her current hero and then remove the hero name behind his player name as well.

I already done the show hero name part but now I need hide hero name part.
My Show Hero Name:

• Player Hero Name System
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
  • Conditions
    • ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Player - Set name of (Owner of (Entering unit)) to ((Name of (Owner of (Entering unit))) + ( ( + ((Name of (Entering unit)) + ))))

Play with substring.
The hero has a constant name, so you can set an 'I' integer to the number of letters of the hero's name, then set the player's name to substring: player's name 1, number of letters in player name MINUS 'I'

 

[NightFelix]

I have no idea how to works it out. Can show me the trigger?

 

[Faust]

• hhn
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Player - Set name of (Owner of (Triggering unit)) to (Substring((Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit))), 1, ((Length of (Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))) - (Length of (Name of (Triggering unit))))))
    • Player - Set name of (Owner of (Entering unit)) to ((Name of (Owner of (Entering unit))) + ( ( + ((Name of (Entering unit)) + ))))

It's two actions, because stings are always quite complicated and long, good luck not losing yourself in this one lol

 

[NightFelix]

• hhn
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player - Set name of (Owner of (Triggering unit)) to (Substring((Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit))), 1, ((Length of (Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))) - (Length of (Name of (Triggering unit))))))

This part seems to be not working. =.=

 

[Faust]

Did you try it with entering unit instead of triggering unit?

 

[Igor_Z]

I like to post some triggers. I think that it is something like this. I need JASS users to fix my actions or do it better somehow... Here it is, i'll give it a try

P.S: The third trigger needs fixing... It doesn't work. Who can fix it, fix it for the requester of this thread. Or create him a new one. I think that it is something like the triggers shown up

 

[Komaqtion]

In JASS, player 1 (red) is "Player (0)", and that means player 2 (blue) is "Player (1)".

 

[Igor_Z]

This isn't JASS... Its GUI. Hmm don't know. But is there anyway i can shorten this trigger for the requester?

 

[Komaqtion]

• Custom script: if GetTriggeringPlayer() == Player(12) then

JASS !

It seems your actions are the same, so why are you even using all those "if"s ??

 

[Igor_Z]

Well i don't want the player names to be changed for all players. Only the player who writes -hhn doesn't want to see hero names near the player names. Get it?

 

[Komaqtion]

But still:

• Custom script: if GetTriggeringPlayer() == Player(12) then
  • Player - Set name of Player 2 (Blue) to Player_Names[1]
  • Player - Set name of Player 3 (Teal) to Player_Names[2]
  • Player - Set name of Player 4 (Purple) to Player_Names[3]
  • Player - Set name of Player 5 (Yellow) to Player_Names[4]
  • Player - Set name of Player 6 (Orange) to Player_Names[5]
  • Player - Set name of Player 8 (Pink) to Player_Names[6]
  • Player - Set name of Player 9 (Gray) to Player_Names[7]
  • Player - Set name of Player 10 (Light Blue) to Player_Names[8]
  • Player - Set name of Player 11 (Dark Green) to Player_Names[9]
  • Player - Set name of Player 12 (Brown) to Player_Names[10]
  • Custom script: endif

These action are still the same as these:

• Custom script: if GetTriggeringPlayer() == Player(11) then
  • Player - Set name of Player 2 (Blue) to Player_Names[1]
  • Player - Set name of Player 3 (Teal) to Player_Names[2]
  • Player - Set name of Player 4 (Purple) to Player_Names[3]
  • Player - Set name of Player 5 (Yellow) to Player_Names[4]
  • Player - Set name of Player 6 (Orange) to Player_Names[5]
  • Player - Set name of Player 8 (Pink) to Player_Names[6]
  • Player - Set name of Player 9 (Gray) to Player_Names[7]
  • Player - Set name of Player 10 (Light Blue) to Player_Names[8]
  • Player - Set name of Player 11 (Dark Green) to Player_Names[9]
  • Player - Set name of Player 12 (Brown) to Player_Names[10]
  • Custom script: endif

And both times you've skipped player 1 and 7

 

[Igor_Z]

Player 1 and Player 7 are Scourge and Sentinel in dotA... He said that he wanted to be like dotA. Player 1 and Player 7 don't control heroes... So their names aren't set to something else. They r just Sentinel and Scourge. Although he can modify those triggers how he wants, its his idea

 

[Azylaminaz]

You have a global constant on all names, it appears, and that is "<player name> ((<unit name>))".
So you can just search for that and remove it...

• Activate
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -hhn as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 27, do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Substring((Name of (Picked player)), (Integer A), ((Integer A) + 1))) Equal to ((
              • Then - Actions
                • Player - Set name of (Picked player) to (Substring((Name of (Picked player)), 1, ((Integer A) - 2)))
              • Else - Actions

I assume you can just disable the trigger that sets the player's names..

Hard to tell exactly, might be "( (" and not "((". If so, just change it to that..
