T32, how to use the ".startperiodic" method ? :S

Komaqtion · Oct 10, 2009

BumP ?!
What did you come up with J4L and Viikuna ? :S

JASS:

            set this.alpha = 255
            set this.red = 255
            set this.green = 255
            set this.blue = 255

Actually not all units' colors are 255, users may change the value in Object editor.

Komaqtion · Oct 10, 2009

How can this be "retrieved" then ?

Viikuna · Oct 10, 2009

Write some lua script which can read that shit from MPQ and use JassHelpers SLK - struct - thingy to copy paste all unit related data such as:

JASS:



module unitdata
    real Red
    real Green
    real Blue
    real Scale

    //Someday...
    //real BaseLife
    //real BaseMana
    
    real LaunchX
    real LaunchY
    real LaunchZ
    real ImpactZ

    integer ArmorBase
    integer ArmorType

    attacktype AttackType
    integer    WeaponType

    string  PrimaryAttribute
    
    boolean MissileHoming
    string  MissileArt
    real    MissileArc
    real    MissileSpeed
    
    real DamagePoint
    real DamageMin
    real DamageMax
    real DamageAreaFull
    real DamageAreaMedium
    real DamageAreaSmall
    real DamageFactorMedium
    real DamageFactorSmall

    // etc.

This is from UnitProperties ObjectData module, which is used by all the cool systems in Tides of Blood.

( Theres no alpha in this module, because its already in main UnitProperties code. This module only has stuff that is different for all unit types depending on object editor stuff. )

edit. Current public version of UnitProperties only has damage point of all this stuff, because its used by evasion module. Read more here, UnitProperties thread.

edit2. About [lJASS]//!loaddata[/lJASS] command, you can read from JassHelper manual.

I myself know nothing about any other coding that Jass, so I cant advice you how to make tools that automaticly get you stuff from MPQ and create those .slk files for you. I guess you gotta ask about that from some real programming forums.

edit3. Damn, this thread is long. I guess it should at least attract peoples attention if anything.

edit3. Damn, this thread is long. I guess it should at least attract peoples attention if anything.

Hehe, yeah... hopefully :thup:

And, I'm afraid I know nothing about any programming language except JASS either

So, hopefully someone here at the forums knows it, and might be able to help

But, basically what you're saying is that I need an extern application, which will create an .lsk file from an MPQ ?

This is getting a little silly, what you have is fine. Good luck getting units' default RGB.

Komaqtion · Oct 11, 2009

Ok, then...
Well, could I just simply skip that part then, and maybe submit this resource ?

Viikuna · Oct 11, 2009

Well, its not really a problem to initialize all that stuff manually by typing it, but then it has some problems.

-You must remember to change your code every time you do some changes in object editor.

-If you have many different unit types, you have to type a lot to initliaze all that data.

I mean, just try to do something like this without any tools:

I tell you, it will be a pain in the ass.

But yea, in reality people should not use that many unit types, that they cant initialize starting RGB for all of them. ( So we poor guys who cant write MPQ reading tools, just have to use less unit types )

I say you go and release.

edit. And most of units probably use 255,255,255 colours anyways, dont you think? It should make it easier anyways.

Komaqtion · Oct 11, 2009

Yeah, and I can add that in the doc, and this system doesn't support pre-changed RGB colors from the Object Editor, and I'd suggest them manually change the color of the units in-game instead ?

Question: Did you just type all that text out, now ?!!!!! XD

And also, as this system uses two libraries, should I post them separatelly, or as one ? :S

Viikuna · Oct 11, 2009

That code is from UnitProperties evasion module library. It just has the damage points of all stock units.

Whether you should release both of those together, Im not sure.

Id probably release them together, so I wouldnt have to make any links from periodic fade library thread to that appereance thread maybe.

edit. Remember that when submitting stuff like this, the test map is what counts. Remember to make some really cool vertex color and scale changing thingies that perfectly demostrate why your system is so cool.

Komaqtion · Oct 11, 2009

Hmm... Well, atm I have test triggers like these:

Trigger:

Test Scale Dec
- Events
  - Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing scale de as An exact match
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Set TempGroup = (Units owned by (Triggering player))
  - Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do (Actions)
    - Loop - Actions
      - Custom script: call SmoothScaleChange.create( GetEnumUnit(), 2.5, -.5, null )
  - Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup)

Trigger:

Test Scale Inc
- Events
  - Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing scale in as An exact match
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Set TempGroup = (Units owned by (Triggering player))
  - Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do (Actions)
    - Loop - Actions
      - Custom script: call SmoothScaleChange.create( GetEnumUnit(), 2.5, .5, null )
  - Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup)

Which all are very dull imho

But, you mean like a spell or something ?

Any suggestions ? :S

EDIT: Wait a minute... I have this spell (Which I believe is the reason why I made this system, can't remember XD) which uses both vertex-color change, and scale change, but it's not nearly finished

But, maybe something like it ?

Is the doc ok ? :S

And, I just remembered that I never got an answer to how to add a callback to it

Is it possible, and/or is it a useless feature ? :S

Komaqtion · Oct 12, 2009

Bump !!!

Sorry for that very long last post, but that's basically what I need to submit this, so please try to answer it

kingkingyyk3 · Oct 12, 2009

Use TriggerExecute or TriggerEvaluate.

But adding this will slow down the library. Don't add it IMO.

How about adding stop function?

Komaqtion · Oct 12, 2009

Ok, then... Won't add it

And, yeah sure I can add a stop function, but I don't really understand why :S If you want to add 0.5 to a unit's scale, why stop it ? :S

EDIT: Btw, how would I go about doing the "stop" stuff ? :S

Jesus4Lyf · Oct 12, 2009

I would submit it. I think I would use this! :thup:

>real Time, real scaleMod
I'd find real scaleMod, real Time more intuitive, but that's just me.

We can keep giving you feedback once it is submitted... you'll get more like that. You're intending to submit this, right? Lol.

Komaqtion · Oct 13, 2009

Hehe, well I just started writing it my way, and now all the three has it like that, so probably won't change it

You're intending to submit this, right? Lol.

Of course XD

Ok, then... I'll submit it now then

EDIT: Oh, wait... What about the test map stuff ? :S
As I said, I only have some lame +0.5 scale and such

But, anyways... I'll submit it with those for now, and I/you can come up with something later

T32, how to use the ".startperiodic" method ? :S
