Snippet String2PlayerColoredString

He means;

JASS:

    private player array PLAYER

function S2PCS takes string s, integer playerId returns string

endfunction

function GetPlayerColorStringById takes integer playerId returns string    
    return PlayerColor[GetHandleId( GetPlayerColor(PLAYER[playerId]))]
endfunction

private function Init takes nothing returns nothing

Ok, changed that now

Thanks !

Though, I've now discovered that the GetPlayerColorString doesn't really work :S

Here's how I test it, and nothing shows...

Trigger:

For each (Integer A) from 0 to 11, do (Actions)
- Loop - Actions
  - Custom script: call BJDebugMsg(GetPlayerColorString(Player(bj_forLoopAIndex)))
  - Wait 0.10 seconds

Oh, btw... Here's how the code looks like now:

EDIT: Nvw... Artificial "helped" me XD

EDIT2: Btw, what takes for this to get approved (If it's even approvable XD :S) ?

Jesus4Lyf · Sep 6, 2009

"S2PCS" is a terrible function name.

How about PlayerColorString?

Komaqtion · Sep 7, 2009

Yeah, sure

Will use then

Is it ok if I use "PlayerColoredString" ?

Komaqtion · Sep 8, 2009

Bump ?

GetTriggerUnit- · Sep 8, 2009

JASS:

function GetPlayerColorString takes player p returns string   
    return StartString + PlayerColor[GetHandleId( GetPlayerColor(p))]
endfunction

Should be

JASS:

function GetPlayerColorString takes player p returns string   
    return StartString + PlayerColor[GetHandleId( GetPlayerColor(p))] + EndString
endfunction

¸
Thats why it does not show anything, Imo...

uberfoop · Sep 8, 2009

Adding an Endstring there would just negate the color code, making the call pointless.

GetTriggerUnit- · Sep 8, 2009

Yez but isn't it explaining why nothing shows up?

If all you display is the returned string, nothing should show up. The function is used to color any text following it in a string.

GetTriggerUnit- · Sep 8, 2009

This

Trigger:

For each (Integer A) from 0 to 11, do (Actions)
- Loop - Actions
  - Custom script: call BJDebugMsg(GetPlayerColorString(Player(bj_forLoopAIndex)))
  - Wait 0.10 seconds

does not work because of missing Endstring?

Jesus4Lyf · Sep 8, 2009

Why? What should it display?

uberfoop · Sep 8, 2009

Read what I posted, lol. The entire point of that call is to cause text following it to be colored in the color of the entered player.
GetPlayerColorString(Player(bj_forLoopAIndex)) just causes any text following it in that string to be colored in whatever color the current player is.

Try GetPlayerColorString(Player(bj_forLoopAIndex)) + "HELLO WORLD".

Should display a bunch of coloured 'HELLO WORLD's.

GetTriggerUnit- · Sep 8, 2009

:banghead:

Is that a good answer?

Komaqtion · Sep 9, 2009

Ok... But any thoughts about the actuall code ?

Any chance of approving it ?

Azlier · Sep 9, 2009

Instead of calling GetHandleId(GetPlayerColor()), you could hook SetPlayerColor() (or whatever the native is) and save the proper things in an array. You get a nice efficiency gain there.

Clever Azlier is clever.

I like.
:thup:

Komaqtion · Sep 10, 2009

Actuallt, I've never used the "Hook" functionality :S

But I'll try

Thanks :thup:

Komaqtion · Sep 17, 2009

Ok, got the "Hook" stuff working now, I believe :S

Please take a look

JASS:

function GetPlayerColorStringById takes integer playerId returns string    
    return StartString + PlayerColor[GetPlayerId(Players[playerId])]
endfunction

I should hit you!

JASS:

function GetPlayerColorStringById takes integer playerId returns string    
    return StartString + PlayerColor[playerId]
endfunction
