Knockback Help

ShadowDestroyer	I was using the knockback map by vile. When I imported all the needed triggers for just the knockback unit, i had 272 compile errors. I imported all the variables, what am i doing wrong?

Meanie	You need too import some stuff from the Custom Script(CS Cache, an part of Caster System), so try downloading Vexorians Caster System to get the needed system.(Atleast i think it was CS)

vile	Click on the VilesKnockbackFunctions.w3x file in the triggers section, and paste what is in there to your map. Also make a global variable named cscache and define it as Game Cache.

ShadowDestroyer	Ok, now I am only experiencing 15 compile errors. I think they are from variables that I do not have, but I copied all of the variables that you have listed in the variables dialog... Edit, no, thats not it... I just added all those variables Just a note, they are all occuring on the unit knockback trigger, oddly enough, every line doesn't work... 15 lines, 15 mistakes

JASS:

local location casterloc = GetUnitLoc(GetSpellAbilityUnit())
local location targetloc = GetUnitLoc(GetSpellTargetUnit())
local real angle = AngleBetweenPoints(casterloc, targetloc)
local interger lvl = GetUnitAbilityLevel(GetSpellAbilityUnit(),'A05P:AHtb')
local real dist
local real break
call removelocation(casterloc)
call removelocation(targetloc)
set dist = 35
set break = 1.25-(.15*l2R(lvl))

The problem is, all the triggers work fine until I use the custom script in the GUI. Should I just write it in pure jass, without the Custom Script command?

Captain Griffen	Yes. GUI/JASS hybrids should be avoided aside from the odd line.

Capatilisation and spelling is important in jass. Fixed up your minor ones:

JASS:

local location casterloc = GetUnitLoc(GetSpellAbilityUnit())
local location targetloc = GetUnitLoc(GetSpellTargetUnit())
local real angle = AngleBetweenPoints(casterloc, targetloc)
local integer lvl = GetUnitAbilityLevel(GetSpellAbilityUnit(),'AHtb') //rawcodes are just the last four digits
local real dist
local real break
call RemoveLocation(casterloc)
call RemoveLocation(targetloc)
set dist = 35
set break = 1.25-(.15*I2R(lvl))
