problems with a trigger

02-23-2006, 05:10 AM

I'm trying to make this invite trigger for my party system.
The invite trigger is suppose to invite the player and the person you typed invite. works like one from World of Warcraft or EQ.
It plainly doesn't seem to work right.
I really would like him making the system.
I've been working on it for months with no luck.

custom map script:

JASS:

function GetGroup takes integer i returns integer
local integer a
    set a = 1
    loop
        exitwhen a > 6
        if ( IsPlayerInForce(Player(i), udg_Party[a]) == true ) then
        return a
        endif
        set a = a + 1
    endloop
    set a = 1
    loop
        exitwhen a > 6
        if ( IsPlayerInForce(Player(i), udg_Raid[a]) == true ) then
        return a + 6
        endif
        set a = a + 1
    endloop
set a = 0
return a
endfunction

function GetEmptyParty takes nothing returns integer
local integer a
    set a = 1
    loop
        exitwhen a > 6
        if ( CountPlayersInForceBJ(udg_Party[a]) == 0 ) then
        return a
        endif
        set a = a + 1
    endloop
return 0
endfunction

Here is what I have:

Trigger:

how many characters does "-invite" have?

I counted 7 (unless you put a space there which I can't see)

Linera	8 for the -invite_ _ is space then player's name. please someone help. I'm sick of working on this system yet i need it. So many headaches.

lol I insist there is only 7.

I checked the blank space after your -invite. I can only highlight only 1 blank character. if your

string was "-invite "

then I should have highlighted two blank characters.

As any lines from the code you posted has 1 blank character at the end.

Here is an example

Code:

StackAmmo
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -c as A substring
        Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -c as A substring
        Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -c as A substring
        Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing -c as A substring
        Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing -c as A substring
        Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing -c as A substring
        Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing -c as A substring
    Conditions
        (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 2)) Equal to -c
    Actions
        Set SlotA[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 4, 4))))
        Set SlotB[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 6, 6))))
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                SlotA[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Greater than or equal to 1.00
                SlotB[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Greater than or equal to 1.00
                SlotA[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Less than or equal to 6.00

Linera

found the problem in this small trigger:

Trigger:

Then - Actions

Custom script: set udg_EmptyParty = GetEmptyParty()

Player Group - Add temp_player to Party[EmptyParty]

Player Group - Add (Triggering player) to Party[EmptyParty]

Game - Display to (All players) the text: temp_string

Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Name of temp_player)

it will only add triggering player to empty group
see first post for full trigger
