Target unit (or point) of current order?

[Weep]

Is there any way to get the target of a unit's current order, without saving the target in some horrible array P) every time a unit is issued an order and referencing it later?

Suggestions in GUI/JASS only please, there's no vJASS compiler/NewGen for Mac, nor a version of World Edit that can use the new hash tables.

Bump.

Do you know the Cache System? It will help you lots in doing this.

I think you should create your own little system for that...
You need two unit variables (or 1 unit and 1 point) with array, and save the array index to unit's custom value.
The system should recycle non-taken indexes, so you won't run out of them. ^^ Will take you a few hours but it's not deadly difficult, good luck.

Do you know the Cache System?

I'm not familiar with it. Got a link? Also: is it a GUI or JASS system? vJASS/NewGen is unusable to me due to being on a Mac.

Fun, fun.

Oh wow, I didn't even look... So, the 1.24 patch for Mac doesn't update World Editor, which is all I checked before (it's still 1.20) - but apparently the WC3 files that get patched still affect it! I have hashtables in GUI! Glee!

Making an order caching system will be pretty easy. I'm still hesitant to start coding with hashtables until 1.24 is live, though.

[edit] Just needed to say again that I am happyyyyyyyyyyy Although, hashtables might make triggering TOO easy. Just won't be a fun challenge anymore, you know?
[edit 2] Aw HELL. Even though the GUI commands are there, WE is giving me JASS script errors when I actually try to USE THEM.
[edit 3] Wow, 1.24 COMPLETELY BREAKS the trigger editor on Mac. Even regular old non-hashtable triggers give script errors.
