kay, the question is simple, how to convert a string into a rect ? i want to simpify this into a loop, thx

JASS:

//On the left is the global variable, and on the right is the rect itself with the name of CreepCamp0X
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[1] = gg_rct_CreepCamp01
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[2] = gg_rct_CreepCamp02
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[3] = gg_rct_CreepCamp03
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[4] = gg_rct_CreepCamp04
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[5] = gg_rct_CreepCamp05
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[6] = gg_rct_CreepCamp06
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[7] = gg_rct_CreepCamp07
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[8] = gg_rct_CreepCamp08
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[9] = gg_rct_CreepCamp09
    set udg_respawnsystem_Area[10] = gg_rct_CreepCamp10

Rising_Dusk	gg_rct_CreepCamp01 That is a global variable, and you can't splice globals' names such that you could loop them. So far as I'm aware, how you have it is the only way to do it.

zen87	hmmph ic... i thought something like string2rect will work out, well guess not =\| thanks !!

Rising_Dusk	Well.. I suppose that depends on what you're trying to do. If you need a rect to be a unique string, you can H2I() the rect and then I2S() the handle. That would give you a unique string for each rect. Notably, nothing in the code you posted suggests you even use strings.

blu_da_noob	Your first post was correct on what he is trying to do. He would be wanting to do something like this: JASS: loop exitwhen i > 10 set udg_rect[i] = gg_Rect_CreepCamp+I2S(i) set i = i + 1 endloop And no, you can't do it :/

zen87	lol thats exactly what im trying to do, but it seems that all i was ended up to an error, so i came to confirm the stuff around here to proof that i'm wrong >_<

PipeDream	You can use variables in strings through the value events.. who knows maybe you could pull something crazy off.
