I have heard alot of good stuff about Jass, but I don't really understand. Could someone please explain to me exactly what the advantage to using Jass is? If it's worth it, I just might take the time to learn about it.
Really???PVT_Morgan said:i've looked through the Basic Jass tutorials, but I really don't see any big advantages to it, other than making it hard for other people to understand your triggers. I was just wondering if there was anyone who could explain in a solid, easy to understand way, what the benifits of Jass are. I've seen Jass triggers, and they make no sense at all.

exacty what did you replace? the only thing i actually do is use a couple of locals, simplify conditions a bit and sometimes replace some bj...anything else i should have in mind?Rinpun said:I learned by converting all of my GUI trigs to JASS and then reading tutorials and replacing all the messed up code with good JASS.

ok for example...without jass you couldn't fix memory leaks (using the custom script is still considered as jass).PVT_Morgan said:that's the kind of answer i was looking for, but i was hoping i could get an example...what kind of things can it do that GUI can't? so far in my limited mapmaking experience, ive been able to do EVERYTHING i've needed to in GUI...granted, i've not yet made ungodly complex triggers or anything, but still...
and btw, i appreciate you guys's help
