How to make shuffle players?

[nardretor]

I want my map to have a shuffle players feature. Any ideas?

Just move their units to the other side of the map, and change their alliances - so that their former friends become their foes, and the other way around.
Can't give you a trigger, since I don't know what your map looks like.

Wait do you mean in the lobby or
when ingame (either at map init or some other time straight after map loaded)?

Well it depends on what a "shuffle players feature" is.

It could be that you add random players to two player groups, until there are none left to be shuffled, or it could be that your players all start off in random locations. You may want to explain a bit more here..

Just like in DotA...

If Player 1 types (string), players of both teams will be shuffled...

My map has no big difference with dota... Taverns sell heroes... Circle of Power buys heroes... Both teams are the same... When you buy a hero, it will move instantly to the shops. If I used the shuffle players, will the triggers that moves heroes instantly from one region to another be randomed too? Because my triggers are..
-Hero owned by player 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 move instantly to <region>

Best way to do this would be to create to forces, force 1 and 2 then make a loop that based on a random number between 1 and 2 moves them to force 1 or 2. Then take all the members of force move them to base 1 and change them to treat each other as allies and force 2 as enemies. Do the same with force 2.

This trigger shuffles players in 2 equal teams (or as equal as possible, in case of uneven teams)

Alternatively, if you don't feel like/don't know how to do this trigger, you can just copy this into your map:
(I know its converted GUI, didn't feel like making it complicated.....)

What are the variables?

 

[bOb666777]

NumberOfPlayersPerTeam - Integer
ShuffleTeam - Integer
ShuffleTeam1 - Player Group
ShuffleTeam2 - Player Group (you can use an array too )
ToShuffle - Player Group

---
Also I forgot, that trigger i posted only splits the players into 2 group
Add alliance actions after to make it work ^^

Amazingly long...

Here's a shorter version:

Set Players = All players matching (((Matching player) slot status) equal to Is playing) and (((Matching player) controller) equal to User) (or whatever players you need here)
Player group - Clear Teams[1]
Player group - Clear Teams[2]
Set CurrentTeam = 1
For each Integer A from 1 to (Number of players in Players) and do
    Set Player = Random player from Players
    Player group - Add Player to Teams[CurrentTeam]
    Player group - Remove Player from Players
    Set CurrentTeam = 3 - CurrentTeam

Players: variable of type player group
Teams: variable of type player group, with a check in array,
CurrentTeam: of type integer
Player: of type player

 

[nardretor]

I'll try those.... Thanks...

Wait! Bob's trigger doesn't work... But i still not trying the jass yet...
Help!

Try AceHart's trigger. It will do exactly what you want.

But i still not trying the jass yet...

Are you talking about AceHart's? His isn't JASS.
