The World Editor Quiz!

I have noticed the downdrop in activity in the forums, so I figured I would start a little quiz. I'm not handing out any questions, but, I want them from YOU. Then I'll write up a quiz, and you can post your grades here. Sound good?

Post quiz questions here, or PM-AIM-MSN-E-Mail them to me. I'll keep a notepad document. Don't post the answers on the FORUMS, you can however, give them to me over PM-MSN-AIM-E-Mail.

There aren't any rules, just, they have to be about the World Editor. This quiz will be put in my War3C Magazine, which was approved by Draco and Electromancer a few days ago. Thanks!

Note, this quiz is not for me, it's for the community. :P

PM- ER... I think you should know this... >:P

1. How do you make a unit unclickable, but is not a doodad? What is the name of this?

2. How can you remove a player's patrol button? (Can be move, hold pos, or stop, w/e)

3. Does the event "unit enters/leaves region" work for units that are spawned inside the region?

4. Does the event "unit enters/leaves region" work when you move a region onto a unit?

5. Define GUI.

6. Define JASS

7. Define a variable and an array

8. Create an infinite loop in "GUI"

9. Create a trigger that would normally require 12 actions, but are summed into one action.

10. Create a trigger that would normally require 12 triggers, but are summed into one trigger.

11. How can you make heroes go beyond level 10?

12. Name one ability that you would use for a "dummy" ability when making a Unit-Targetted trigger enhanced spell.

13. What is the bloodmage's "sphere" ability?

14. How would you edit a particular part of a map's UI (User Interface) and replace it with your own image? (An easy one would be the map-preview image)

15. Is Endless Master's really going to be the best map War3 will see and will ever see? (<---- That question is worth 90% of your grade!.... J/p, lol.)

Alright! If you care, I could probably (in other words, could) write a program that could test someone and give them their grade. Anyway, let me ask a few questions... (trigger related) I'll sort them in order of difficulty. (hardest last)

1. Why are for loops and arrays intertwined?

2. What does GUI stand for? (not important but interesting)

3. Name a difference between JASS and GUI.

4. What does Abs in math mean? (if you know it, its obvious, otherwise its very difficult)

5. What is a 'bug'? How might you go upon fixing it (besides wc3c ;) )?
interestingly I got the inspiriation for that one by watching a bug craw along on the windowsill :> .

6. How might you go upon making a rectangular grid of raised land (via triggers)?

7. What is a parralel array? (good luck...)

8. How would you go about writing a string parser that would fill string variables with a new string every time it reaches a period?

For ex. If you have the string "jj. jje. jij. jjq" then you would have 4 strings with the values "jj", "jje", "jij" and "jjq" respectively.


Anyway, I'd be glad to write a program (although some of my answers aren't exactly multiple choice) or something. If your just going to put this up in a magazine, then just ignore this.

I want you all to realize that this is supposed to be a quiz and not a do this this and this.

It's a magazine quiz, meaning multiple choice, true/false, and maybe short answer -- not creating triggers.

Just keep that in mind.
