System Matrix Recipe System

[Matrix]

My first sytem I've created.
**************************************************************************************
*************************Simple Recipe System v1.01***********************************
**********************************************************************************
******************************By: Matrix****************************************
Pros:
1) Allow same item-types [like Stygian Desolator]
2) Consists of 74 lines
3) Can be used not only for Jassers/vJassers but also for GUI users
4) It is the simpliest system I've ever seen
Cons:
The only thing it's bad is if's. Due to them it's not very fast
*******************
**Changelog v1.02**
*******************
1) Added RecipeEx function
2) Now function returns a boolean depending on wether the recipe succeeded or not
3) More Cleaner&Leakless code
*******************
**How to implant:**
*******************
The system is very easy. The only things you'll have to do to implement the system is to
copy the custom script code
*******************
**How to use:******
*******************
To use this system u have to have a trigger with the event unit pick up item and in the actions
just write:
call Recipe(GetTriggerUnit(),'rde3','rde1','rde1',0,0,0,0)
Arguments:
GetTriggerUnit() - Unit that picked up item //I think it is clear
'rde3' - The New Item rawcode (the rawcode of the item that must be created)
'rde1' - The Rawcode of the first ingredient
'rde1' - The Rawcode of the second ingredient
0 - The Recipe hasn't more ingredients so the 3,4,5,6 ingredient are 0

************************
*****Trouble Shooter****
************************
Q: I have some troubles with this system. It doesn't work!!!
A: The reason maybe globals. If u have global integer i, i1,i2,i3,i4,i5,i6,count,j,ni... and all the arguments the system works with.
If u havent JassNewGenPack all must be Ok.

Q: Why did u do this shit?
A: I'm cr8ing an AoS map and I was searching for a simple recipe sytem but I didn't find=(
That's why I decided to cr8 my own =)


Hopefully you like the system!

P.S. I think I found my new home...
It's thehelper.net - really helper
Thx a lot to Earth-Fury for his suggestion

maybe you want to add implementation instructions and a little argumentation why to use this system and not the other systems which are out here? I for myself would prefer a system for which i only set the ingredients of a recipe and which automatically combines them.

 

[Kenny]

Maybe put the script in JASS tags, and also i think i found something wrong with the script.

if i6!=0 then
   set count = count+1
   set ItemIde[count]=i6 // ItemIde ??? 
endif

I just search a simple system withouy cache but i Did'nt find it.
So that's why I've cr8ed this one..

 

[Romek]

Don't Double Post.
Use JASS tags.
Stop saying "cr8ed". I keep thinking its "Cried" and it's easier to read "created"

Saying what it does (Although its obvious) and actually saying what the arguments are would help.

 

[cr4xzZz]

Geez, another one? :/
Lines mean nothing, it's the performance that counts.

Isn't there one already in the Systems section?

 

[Matrix]

updated and fixed bug!

what about mine?
It is currently outdated and will be changed to constant speed in a few weeks though ( using hashtables ). This will also allow for more than just 2 items per recipe : D

Mine just takes the recipes and then combines automatically.
I do however not remember wether 2 of the same items were allowed...

> 2) Allow double item types [as Stygian Desolator in Dota]
You should give a better example. Some people may not know what Stygian Desolator because they haven't played DotA. Maybe you could edit it like:
2) Allow double item types (like combining 2 Gloves of Haste into something new)

Updated!!!

function RecipeEx takes unit hero, integer ni, integer i1, integer i2, integer i3, integer i4, integer i5, integer i6 returns boolean
    return Recipe(hero,ni,i1,i2,i3,i4,i5,i6,null,null)
endfunction

Erm... RecipeEx should have more arguments then Recipe... Ex = Extended, usually. That's how the other JASS functions work, the Ex version has more arguments(Most of them, it's a Z coordinate added - Some of the lightning ones have this).

Really, Recipe should call RecipeEx and give "" as the argument for the strings, not the other way around.

To use this system u have to have a trigger with the event unit pick up item and in the actions
just write:
call Recipe(GetTriggerUnit(),'rde3','rde1','rde1',0,0,0,0)

How about you give a working example? That will give a "not enough arguments" error, as Recipe also takes two strings.

 

[Andrewgosu]

I don't see a difference between this and the multiple other "recipe" systems.

As long as this doesn't offer something unique it's graveyarded.
