JASS loops (not fruity)

When I do a loop in JASS, it only goes through 9 times. Is there a way to set the number of times it irrates before it thinks it is an infinite loop, or do I have to put a loop in a loop in a loop to get the number of irrations I want?

On the subject, is there a way to increace the maximum integer size?

I don't know about JASS, but in regular programming you would use a for loop to get a certain number of iterations.

I know how to get a certain number of irrations, my problem is that Warcraft limits it to 9. I also want to be able to create a integer with a higher number of bits, as my script uses high numbers, that get skrewed up because of they can't go above 11,111,111.

PS: I use Python in my regular programming, i only started in on JASS about two months ago, but i've got it down pretty well.

> Warcraft limits it to 9 iterations.

Even in GUI you can have a "for integer a from 1 to 1000", and it will work fine.
If a bit slowly...


Don't know what the limit would be on integers, but it can for sure not be changed.


What are you trying to do?

The limit is not based on iterations but on execution time, and it is huge, post the code before starting to assume things.

Jass loops are definitely not limited to 9 iterations. Like Vex said, post the code.

The maximum integer is 2,147,483,647. To get any higher you have to use strings.

I dont feel like posting the code, as i am on a different computer, but it converts a large (And quite limited) integer to base 36. As for the integer, i want to increase the bits it uses, but it doesn't seem that is possible.

Wouldn't it only take about six iterations to convert an integer to base 36?

If you have any divide-by-zeroes in your loop, the whole trigger will just stop; that could've given you this impression.

Well, converting to base 36 will take alot more then 6 irrations, and i'm pretty sure that i don't have any Divide-by-zero problems, because I wrote a working example in Python, and in Python, it will crash and shut the whole program down (unless you cath the error in a try/exept statement), so i would probably know.

It totally depends on how long thier name is... For longer codes it can take 20+, but for my current code the max is, like, errrrrrrr 5 :banghead:

Acually the max is 8... wait... 9 :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: Gaaaa my problem is that my integer doesn't have enough bits!!! It is at 16 bit, and i need at least 24, mabee 32. I wish you could delete your posts... This one was unneccery, as i could edit...

    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
