newb 2 jass question

[Emu.Man00]

yeah just started jass today, and im going on a couple tutorials and the code that you get from using convert to custom script in WE :S
I tried to add a variable for spell being cast, and then order the caster to use the spell on a random; so heres what i did

function Trig_Spell_Transport_Func004C takes nothing returns boolean
    if ( not ( GetSpellAbilityUnit() == udg_Spell_Transport_Target ) ) then
        return false
    endif
    if ( not ( IsUnitEnemy(GetSpellTargetUnit(), GetOwningPlayer(GetSpellAbilityUnit())) == true ) ) then
        return false
    endif
    return true
endfunction

function Trig_Spell_Transport_Conditions takes nothing returns boolean
    if ( not Trig_Spell_Transport_Func004C() ) then
        return false
    endif
    return true
endfunction

function Trig_Spell_Transport_Func002002001003 takes nothing returns boolean
    return ( IsPlayerAlly(GetOwningPlayer(udg_Spell_Transport_Random), GetOwningPlayer(GetSpellAbilityUnit())) == true )
endfunction

function Trig_Spell_Transport_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
(43)    [B]set udg_Spell_Transport_Casted = GetSpellAbility()[/B]
    set udg_Spell_Transport_Target = GroupPickRandomUnit(GetUnitsInRangeOfLocAll(200.00, GetUnitLoc(GetSpellAbilityUnit())))
    set udg_Spell_Transport_Target = GroupPickRandomUnit(GetUnitsInRangeOfLocMatching(200.00, GetUnitLoc(GetSpellAbilityUnit()), Condition(function Trig_Spell_Transport_Func002002001003)))
(46)    call IssueTargetOrderBJ( GetSpellAbilityUnit(), [B]udg_Spell_Transport_Casted[/B] , udg_Spell_Transport_Random )
endfunction

(49)//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Spell_Transport takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_Spell_Transport = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ( gg_trg_Spell_Transport, EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_SPELL_CAST )
    call TriggerAddCondition( gg_trg_Spell_Transport, Condition( function Trig_Spell_Transport_Conditions ) )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Spell_Transport, function Trig_Spell_Transport_Actions )
endfunction

bold parts are what i changed, and i get 3 errors:
line 43: type mismatch in assignment
line 46: invalid arguement type (integer)
line 49: expected a code statement (integer)

GetSpellAbility() returns an ability.. I think you want GetSpellAbilityID() for the integer.
Also, IssueTargetOrderBJ uses a string for the order. You should use IssueTargetOrderById.

And, Use Jass (

) tags for Jass =]

 

[Emu.Man00]

but i want the ability cause i wanna make the unit cast it, no? :S
IssueTargetOrderBJ was what WE made it when i converted from gui :S
and i didnt notice there were jass tags :S
----
i tried using ID and still got 3 errors, first one changed to
expecting name

 

[trb92]

GetSpellAbilityId(), not ID(). JASS is case-sensitive.

 

[Emu.Man00]

i got everything figured out now except

    call IssueTargetOrderBJ( GetSpellAbilityUnit(), udg_Spell_Transport_Cast , udg_Spell_Transport_Random )

It doesnt like udg_spell_transport_cast cause its an integer :S

 

[Emu.Man00]

I was told by a friend in game that this simply isnt possible :S am i wasting my time trying to do this?

 

[AceHart]

You need better friends.


IssueTargetOrderBJ expects the order as string, like "heal".
You may want to try with IssueTargetOrderById instead.

native IssueTargetOrderById takes unit whichUnit, integer order, widget targetWidget returns boolean

> am I wasting my time?

That remains to be seen

 

[Emu.Man00]

sweet ty, it doesnt give any errors now, im gonna test in the morning >.<

 

[Emu.Man00]

well i tested it in game, and it simply doesnt work :S he can cast spells without any problem

edit: sometimes he just stops casting, some times he casts fine :S

 

[Emu.Man00]

no1 got a solution?

for the widget am i just supposed to use the same variable i used before? cause theres no variable called 'widget' :S (this probably sounds rly rly stupid )

 

[Romek]

A widget is anything with health.
Units, Destructibles, Items (I think) etc. (Or is that all of them?)

Can you post your current, updated code?
In Jass

(bump) :S i wish ppl were as active in jass section as the gui one.

You haven't set udg_Spell_Transport_Random to anything.

:S And I wish the one who we are helping is as active as we are.
