[emjlr3]

Whoa. Awesome stuff. I especially liked the thread title lol. But seriously, great job! :thup:

You don't need to clear the group, as you're never adding units to it.

I only read about 3/8 into it and then stopped,
But from what I read it's a very well written tutorial [besides a few spelling/grammar errors ].
I might actually read the rest later today and get into JASS because of it .
Very good job AceHart,
+rep.

Nice writing

Understandable, funny, and clear.

How to make it, that it heal every user player ?
I think i need to change this:

call GroupEnumUnitsOfPlayer(g, GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()), b)

But dont know how.
Thanks.

Why is everybody saying that all guiers should be turned to jassers?
there always going to be around no-mater how many you convert.

I'm now a mostly converted GUI user. The only reason I use it now is that I'm familiar with it.
Excellent job aceheart I bow my head down to you and your teachings.

Aside from that GroupClear which isn't needed, this is very well made. It's interesting, detailed and funny.

Approved

I'll also change the prefix to [Tutorial], seeing as this is actually explaining how to convert an old GUI spell to Jass.

What's a boolexpr, I don't seem to understand that in the tutorial, I understand the rest pretty well.

A boolexpr is a handle type returned by the Condition() or Filter() natives, which each take a code variable. The function refered to must return a boolean.

Still, it seems like an awfully long length to go to just to fix a small spell

I am an intermediate JASSer who does much more complicated things than this, and I can say I learned a few things. I'm pretty sure a lot of people wouldn't go through all the steps if they had other things to do on the map rather than optimization, but the spells simplicity shows a lot of things can be optimized even in such a small spell. These optimizations probably don't really change the in game lag on its one, but it is still optimization =D
