I2L and L2I will they work? (trying to convert loc to integer, visa versa)

Will this work? im trying to convert a location to an integer (perhaps I should use reals?)

function L2I and function I2L

JASS:

globals
unit array udg_Backpack_Unit
rect gg_rct_Rect_035
trigger gg_trg_Reviving_Heroes
gamecache udg_Game_Cache
unit array udg_Hero
endglobals

function Revive_Func0X20 takes nothing returns boolean
return UnitHasItemOfTypeBJ(udg_Backpack_Unit[GetPlayerId(GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()))+1], 'I00N') == true
endfunction

function H2I takes handle h returns integer
    return h
    return 0
endfunction

function I2U takes integer i returns unit
    return i
    return null
endfunction

function I2Timer takes integer i returns timerdialog
    return i
    return null
endfunction

function L2I takes location l returns integer
    return l
    return 0
endfunction

function I2L takes integer i returns location
    return i
    return null
endfunction 

function Revive_FuncA0G3 takes nothing returns nothing
 local timer t = GetExpiredTimer()
 local string t_s = I2S(H2I(t))
 local location loc = I2L(GetStoredInteger(udg_Game_Cache, "t_s", "loc"))
 local integer x = GetStoredInteger(udg_Game_Cache, "t_s", "x")
 local unit u = I2U(GetStoredInteger(udg_Game_Cache, "t_s", "unit"))
    call ReviveHeroLoc(u, loc, true)
    call ShowUnit(udg_Backpack_Unit[x], true)
    call FlushStoredMission(udg_Game_Cache, t_s)
    call PanCameraToTimedLocForPlayer(GetOwningPlayer(u), loc, 0.00)
    call RemoveLocation(loc)
    set loc = null
    call DestroyTimer(t)
    set t = null
    set u = null

    
endfunction

function Revive takes nothing returns nothing
 local timer t = CreateTimer()
 local unit u = GetTriggerUnit()
 local integer x = GetPlayerId(GetOwningPlayer(u))+1
 local string t_s = I2S(H2I(t))
 local string pn = GetPlayerName(GetOwningPlayer(u))
 local location l = GetUnitLoc(u)
    call StoreInteger(udg_Game_Cache, "t_s", "loc", L2I(l))
    call StoreInteger(udg_Game_Cache, "t_s", "unit", H2I(u))
    call StoreInteger(udg_Game_Cache, "t_s", "pn", x)
    call TimerStart(t, 5, false, function Revive_FuncA0G3)
    call ShowUnit(udg_Backpack_Unit[x], false)
    set u = null
    set t = null
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Reviving_Heroes takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_Reviving_Heroes = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerAddCondition(gg_trg_Reviving_Heroes,Condition(function Revive_Func0X20))
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Reviving_Heroes, function Revive )
    call TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ(gg_trg_Reviving_Heroes, EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_DEATH)
endfunction

Pyrogasm	Couldn't you just use GetLocationX() and GetLocationY() to get values, and then convert them to integers, or something of that sort? I'm sure you could figure out a system for adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing those values to get a new value?

Mythic Fr0st	Yea good idea, thanks Btw will JASS: function I2Item takes integer i returns item return i return null endfunction function blah takes nothing returns nothing call UnitRemoveItem(u, I2Item('I00N')) endfunction I wanna remove any item of type "I00N"

JASS:

function I2Item takes integer i returns item
    return i
    return null
endfunction

function blah takes nothing returns nothing
    call UnitRemoveItem(u, I2Item('I00N'))
endfunction

Do you really need that? It seems quite weird, because 'I00N' is a bit big and I'm almost sure it will return null because that. But I can be wrong.

For a single item type, you can simply go on this :

JASS:

function RemoveItemType takes unit whichUnit,integer itemId returns integer
    local integer index
    local item indexItem
    set index = 0
    loop
        set indexItem = UnitItemInSlot(whichUnit, index)
        if (indexItem != null) and (GetItemTypeId(indexItem) == itemId) then
            call UnitRemoveItem(whichUnit,indexItem)
        endif
        set index = index + 1
        exitwhen index >= 6
    endloop
endfunction

Did you even read what I said about handles and slots?

Please, this is so wrong. Please get some understanding about the differences between item ids and references...

I will say it once: If what you are doing actually uses a return bug exploiter of the form [take integer return some handle type] what you are doing is most likely unsafe and you should avoid to use it.

Mythic Fr0st	I thought of looping through the inventory, then removing it when I found that item type

The handle to integer is only used to reference a single handle. It is not an item or an item-type, but a specific item.

Ex:
Bob has Claws of Attack + 5
Joe has Claws of Attack + 5
They are both the same type of item, but the return bug will return a different integer because they are different items

It is mainly used to store values in a gamecache, using it as a string or integer.

Ex. Some spells manipulate units. Instead of storing all the units in a global variable, you could store the units in a gamecache, under the handle of the casting unit. Then you can use Integer to Unit to get the units back after the desired wait period.
