when did you learn to speak chinese?:p (sarcasm)

P.S.
since i know nothing about jass, i have 1 question, these vars you set in JASS, mainly playeractive, are still useable for other GUI triggers right?

cause i use that one quite often...

Alright, and make sure you use NewGen. I'm using vJass, for the locals.

Player Active only.

JASS:
function Trig_Func_03 takes nothing returns boolean
    if ( not ( GetPlayerSlotState(ConvertedPlayer(GetForLoopIndexA())) == PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING ) ) then
        return false
    endif
    return true
endfunction

function Trig_Actions_04 takes nothing returns nothing
    set bj_forLoopAIndex = 1
    set bj_forLoopAIndexEnd = 8
    loop
        exitwhen bj_forLoopAIndex > bj_forLoopAIndexEnd
        if ( Trig_Func_03() ) then
            set udg_ActivePlayer[GetForLoopIndexA()] = true
        else
            set udg_ActivePlayer[GetForLoopIndexA()] = false
        endif
        set bj_forLoopAIndex = bj_forLoopAIndex + 1
    endloop
    call DisableTrigger( GetTriggeringTrigger() )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_004 takes nothing returns nothing
    local trigger t = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerAddAction( t, function Trig_Actions_04 )
endfunction


Wave Initialization and Player Active.

JASS:
//This is the Map Initialization Trigger, I combined both the initializing Waves, and
//finding active players.


function Trig_Actions_05 takes nothing returns nothing
    set udg_Wave[1] = 'hpea'
    set udg_Wave[2] = 'hfoo'
    set udg_Wave[3] = 'hkni'
    set udg_Wave[4] = 'hrif'
    set udg_Wave[5] = 'hmtm'
endfunction

function Trig_Func_03 takes nothing returns boolean
    if ( not ( GetPlayerSlotState(ConvertedPlayer(GetForLoopIndexA())) == PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING ) ) then
        return false
    endif
    return true
endfunction

function Trig_Actions_04 takes nothing returns nothing
    set bj_forLoopAIndex = 1
    set bj_forLoopAIndexEnd = 8
    loop
        exitwhen bj_forLoopAIndex > bj_forLoopAIndexEnd
        if ( Trig_Func_03() ) then
            set udg_ActivePlayer[GetForLoopIndexA()] = true
        else
            set udg_ActivePlayer[GetForLoopIndexA()] = false
        endif
        set bj_forLoopAIndex = bj_forLoopAIndex + 1
    endloop
    call DisableTrigger( GetTriggeringTrigger() )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_004 takes nothing returns nothing
    local trigger t = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerAddAction( t, function Trig_Actions_04 )
    call TriggerAddAction( t, function Trig_Actions_05 )
endfunction

i'd prefer not boleans... that would kinda mean reworking my entire map... there are trigger where i chek if playerachtive 1+ playeractive 2 = 2... cant do that with like that... and there is a bunch of other math stuff where i use these...

i found it on one of your other pots ;)

I was using it to improve your spawn trigger, I'm putting in a way for someone to disable the extra features using a boolean too.

Ren im not a proper jasser but

Wouldnt using custom loops
Be much easier than bj_forloop Sh1t?

JASS:
local integer i = 1
loop
   exitwhen i = 8
   set udg_PlayerPlaying<i> = true 
   set i = i + i</i>

@Chaosma: If it says undeclared variable, ignore it. It's just the vJass syntax.


@Danny: But you can't really carry a local across, unless you use structs. I think at least.

Well why would you want to carry across a local ?

Just create a new i and use it for the loops ?

Simple enough right ?

You can't really across a local, and set it to i at the same time, otherwise i is overwritten and the syntax doesn't like that.

I'm going to put in globals at the top, so configuration is much easier.

Update: I'm working on the spawn trigger right now but I don't quit get what's going on near the bottom of the trigger.

just stop right there, i just thought of something, the wave trigger is incomplete

this is the one i use:
Code: 
wave
    Events
        Time - Next_wave expires
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set wave = (wave + 1)
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Wave  + (String(wave)))
        Set costum[1] = 1
        Set costum[2] = 1
        Set costum[3] = 2
        Set costum[4] = 2
        Set costum[5] = 3
        Set costum[6] = 3
        Set costum[7] = 4
        Set costum[8] = 4
        Set angle[1] = 0.00
        Set angle[2] = 180.00
        Set angle[3] = 270.00
        Set angle[4] = 90.00
        Set angle[5] = 180.00
        Set angle[6] = 0.00
        Set angle[7] = 90.00
        Set angle[8] = 270.00
        For each (Integer spawn_int[1]) from 1 to 25, do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Wait 0.20 game-time seconds
                For each (Integer spawn_int[2]) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
                    Loop - Actions
                        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                            If - Conditions
                                player_active[spawn_int[2]] Equal to 1
                            Then - Actions
                                Set temp_point[1] = (Center of spawn_region[spawn_int[2]])
                                Unit - Create 1 Wave_type[wave] for Player 9 (Gray) at temp_point[1] facing angle[spawn_int[2]] degrees
                                Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_point[1])
                                Set temp_unitG[1] = (Units in spawn_region[spawn_int[2]] owned by Player 9 (Gray))
                                Unit Group - Pick every unit in temp_unitG[1] and do (Actions)
                                    Loop - Actions
                                        Unit - Set the custom value of (Picked unit) to costum[spawn_int[2]]
                                        Unit - Turn collision for (Picked unit) Off
                                        Unit - Change color of (Picked unit) to (Color of (Player(spawn_int[2])))
                                        Unit - Make (Picked unit) Explode on death
                                        Trigger - Add to ice ability <gen> the event (Unit - (Last created unit) Takes damage)
                                        Trigger - Add to lightning ability <gen> the event (Unit - (Last created unit) Takes damage)
                                        Trigger - Add to fire ability <gen> the event (Unit - (Last created unit) Takes damage)
