[System] Hero Selection System

[Hero]

System: Hero Selection System

Updated Version! Now in JASS and GUI

Description:

This is my Hero Selection System....I was inspired to create this when one day I was making an AOS map...and I wanted to implement Vexorian's Hero Selection System....well I wasn't too good at jass...and I still am a little shaky with the really advanced stuff...so I created my own...it is very similar to Vexorian's Hero Selection System BUT in the exception that it is made in GUI..and to me it is a lot more customizable...yes i know vexorian's hero selection system has lots of features for AI usage and other features normal hero selection systems dont have..well mine is similar...I don't know how to implement this in a AI tutorial...so i just left the AI part alone.(besides the crappy Blood Mage One lol)..now it has a JASS trigger for the whole system

Features:

• Easily Editable Script
• Made in JASS and GUI
• JASS Trigger in 1 Trigger (it takes little space and is easy to work with instead of a huge folder containing many triggers)

Requirements and Implementation:

Put this in your map's custom header

function CS_Error takes player ForPlayer, string msg returns nothing
 local sound error=CreateSoundFromLabel( "InterfaceError",false,false,false,10,10)
    if (GetLocalPlayer() == ForPlayer) then
        if (msg!="") and (msg!=null) then
            call ClearTextMessages()
            call DisplayTimedTextToPlayer( ForPlayer, 0.52, -1.00, 2.00, "|cffffcc00"+msg+"|r" )
        endif
        call StartSound( error )
    endif
 call KillSoundWhenDone( error)
 set error=null
endfunction

Copy the Selection System Trigger and find this code (it's the 3rd line)

constant function RegionX takes nothing returns rect
    return gg_rct_All_Units_InVun
endfunction

change  gg_rct_All_Units_InVun to the region name you created in WE

constant function PickAbility takes nothing returns integer
    return 'A000'
endfunction

change 'A000' to the ability raw code in your map for choosing a hero

Variables:
-Create a visibility modifier variable called V

For Those Interested Here is the Code In JASS: (yes I know it contains a couple bj's)

XD Must of forgot it..updating

 

[Hero]

Bump...if I can...no comments?

 

[Sim]

First of all, no you're not supposed to bump until 24 hours have passed

Comment (//) the lines that don't belong in the map header inside your CODE tag. One might just copy-paste them and forget to delete them.

Didn't test this yet. It's in my to-do list. You should give WE Help Zone a break though You posted at least 4 systems and stuff up to now, and they all need approval 0.o

Lol...I saved them up

You need Approval to post demos since when?

I have post many trigger demos and no one has told me you need approvel

Unlike hero I don't post them all at one time but w/e

Actually, yes, you need approval, I'm pretty sure...

This is helpful Hero, but mainly only the GUI part because IMO many people that know a lot about WE or are experienced, would know this, but for n00bs, when looking at the JASS, they'll think,"WTF? I don't want to listen to Jazz, I like hip hop! Where can I learn Jazz? Plz help!! I want to learn Jazz! " jk...

But this is good.

They don't "need" approval to be posted here, but as everyone, you will want them to be in the section they belong in. That needs approval.

This way, way more people will profit from it. Triggers and scripts belong in the Free Trigger Code section BTW.

BuMp

 

[Garfield]

Um, I have no idea how the "system" works... I wish there was a description...

 

[Uberplayer]

First of all you need to explain few things about it ..

For an example how to use it? What is the region and so on..

 

[Hero]

There is a documentation inside the map(or there should be)...unless you want it in the thread..

 

[J0xs]

a new selection system, so whats more special about this selection of urs than others?

Also I forgot to say easy to implement..lol
