Hey, a beginner jasser here wondering about something.
So I've started to make really really simple spells just to get the hang of functions and the really basic things.
But one of the reasons i thought I'd learn jass was because I allways seem to get these MASSIVE triggers in GUI.
I mean the kind of trigger where I have regions all over the map and want to spawn creeps all over the place in different locations.
I mean, that's a really simple thing, but takes a DAY of copying and editing the triggers so it works properly for every creeptype and whatnot.
Or another example, restricting items by level and class. I have to make a trigger for EVERY single item (well over 200). or atleast do huge triggers for em.
The question on my mind is that v/Jass allways seemed to make everything super efficient and short, yet does the whole work.
Don't get me wrong, if I need something done, I'll do it no matter how much time it takes.
But I was just wondering if I was really stupid and did vast amounts of unnecessary copying and pasting and things in GUI witch would go in a jiff in Jass?
sorry for the wall of text, I have a hard time getting to the point...
EDIT: And also, I wouldn't mind a few tips and tricks on how to make those easy but massive triggers simpler
Just how the usual way people go about doing that is.
