I have a simple item system which follows:
Code:
Medallion of Courage
    Events
        Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    Conditions
        And - All (Conditions) are true
            Conditions
                ((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type Gauntlets of Ogre Strength) Equal to True
                ((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type Slippers of Agility) Equal to True
                ((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type Mantle of Intelligence) Equal to True
    Actions
        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Gauntlets of Ogre Strength)
        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Slippers of Agility)
        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Mantle of Intelligence)
        Hero - Create Medallion of Courage and give it to (Hero manipulating item)
        Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Hero manipulating item) using Abilities\Spells\Items\AIlm\AIlmTarget.mdl
        Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)

This trigger works perfectly, except that I have about 40 other triggers like this one. So when a Hero buys and item, it lags for a short while, which I think is because of the triggers. Is there anyway to make it not lag with GUI, or a system in JASS that would make it not laggy at all? If there is, can someone post the trigger for me?

Thanks in advance

You can add waits in 30 of them, so all 40 is spread out over 0.3 seconds or so. Make 10 of them without any waits, first 10 with 0.05 sec wait..etc...blablabla

Yes, which mean you have to use "if then else" and put the conditions inside the "if" and wait before the "if then else"...But, only 40 should not lag, I mean..hmm depends on computer maybe :)

ED! Lol, as ace said, do that also, and no, I didnt even see that you actually had "and"-function in the condition the first time :)

A tiny improvement could come from removing the "And", and just put the conditions directly.
They are "and" by nature already.
(Eliminates some 100+ function calls...)

Doesn't really remove the lag. Tried. Plus, by default, sometimes i get bugs like, having only 2 items and the recipe occurs. So i put a "and". Any Jass scripting that I can use? What bout the one dota uses?

That would (greatly) improve the condition handling by removing the "and"s that aren't helping anything anyway...


Well, take one of your triggers, use "Edit / Convert to custom script", and post it here.
With any luck, someone might reply with an improved version.

Something you might try:

Instead of making a trigger for each and every item, you can try making one BIG trigger which sorts all of them:

E.g.
Code:
Combine
E: Unit - A unit Acquires an item
C:
A:
If / Then / Else
.. Conditions
.. .. <Your Conditions for first recipe>
.. Then
.. .. Item - Remove Item 
.. .. Special Effect - 
.. .. Skip Remaining Codes

If / Then / Else
.. Conditions
.. .. <Your Conditions for other recipe>
.. Then
.. .. Item - Remove Item 
.. .. Special Effect - 
.. .. Skip Remaining Codes

So instead of running 30 events concurrently, you run one with more lines of codes, That would remove the need for waits

Use Triggering unit instead of Hero manipulating item, I think thats a bit faster.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
