Tutorial: Creating a Tree Revival System This will show you how to write a Tree Revival System in JASS. Please Give Some Kind of Credit if you use this system. Question: I don't know JASS can you make a GUI one? Answer: If you don't know JASS it's ok..I explained everything...you can't possibly make a mistake..if you do try to copy and paste. Or use the sample map located below all this text. Copy and Paste these functions below into your map's custom header.  JASS:constant function TreeRegrowTime takes nothing returns real return 10.00 //the amount of time you want before the tree respawns endfunction To add more trees press CTRl+D while looking at the Object Editor then follow the same format and add your tree's RAWCODE inside single quotes (Example ' ' ) function IsDesTree takes destructable a returns boolean local integer d=GetDestructableTypeId(a) if d =='ATtr' then return true elseif d=='BTtw' then return true elseif d=='KTtw' then return true elseif d=='YTft' then return true elseif d=='JTct' then return true elseif d=='YTst' then return true elseif d=='YTct' then return true elseif d=='YTwt' then return true elseif d=='JTwt' then return true elseif d=='DTsh' then return true elseif d=='FTtw' then return true elseif d=='CTtr' then return true elseif d=='ITtw' then return true elseif d=='NTtw' then return true elseif d=='OTtw' then return true elseif d=='ZTtw' then return true elseif d=='WTst' then return true elseif d=='LTlt' then return true elseif d=='GTsh' then return true elseif d=='Xtlt' then return true elseif d=='WTtw' then return true elseif d=='Attc' then return true elseif d=='BTtc' then return true elseif d=='CTtc' then return true elseif d=='ITtc' then return true elseif d=='NTtc' then return true elseif d=='ZTtc' then return true else return false endif endfunction function RegrowTrees takes nothing returns nothing local destructable tree=GetDyingDestructable() call TriggerSleepAction(TreeRegrowTime()) call DestructableRestoreLife( tree, GetDestructableMaxLife(tree), true ) set tree=null endfunction function Trig_Int_Tree_Revival takes nothing returns nothing local trigger t if IsDesTree(GetEnumDestructable())==true then set t=CreateTrigger() call TriggerRegisterDeathEvent( t, GetEnumDestructable() ) call TriggerAddAction(t,function RegrowTrees) endif endfunction function Int_Tree_Revive takes nothing returns nothing call EnumDestructablesInRectAll( GetPlayableMapRect(), function Trig_Int_Tree_Revival ) endfunction Ok..may look kinda confusing but I will explain what it does.. JASS:function Int_Tree_Revive takes nothing returns nothing call EnumDestructablesInRectAll( GetPlayableMapRect(), function Trig_Int_Tree_Revival ) endfunction This is VERY vital to the system. It starts it all. How does it do it you ask? Simple it Picks Every Destructible In The Playable Map...and then it calls the function Trig_Int_Tree Revival. JASS:function IsDesTree takes destructable a returns boolean local integer d=GetDestructableTypeId(a) if d =='ATtr' then return true elseif d=='BTtw' then return true elseif d=='KTtw' then return true elseif d=='YTft' then return true elseif d=='JTct' then return true elseif d=='YTst' then return true elseif d=='YTct' then return true elseif d=='YTwt' then return true elseif d=='JTwt' then return true elseif d=='DTsh' then return true elseif d=='FTtw' then return true elseif d=='CTtr' then return true elseif d=='ITtw' then return true elseif d=='NTtw' then return true elseif d=='OTtw' then return true elseif d=='ZTtw' then return true elseif d=='WTst' then return true elseif d=='LTlt' then return true elseif d=='GTsh' then return true elseif d=='Xtlt' then return true elseif d=='WTtw' then return true elseif d=='Attc' then return true elseif d=='BTtc' then return true elseif d=='CTtc' then return true elseif d=='ITtc' then return true elseif d=='NTtc' then return true elseif d=='ZTtc' then return true else return false endif endfunction //then follow the same format and add your tree's RAWCODE inside single quotes (Example ' ' ) JASS:function Trig_Int_Tree_Revival takes nothing returns nothing local trigger t if IsDesTree(GetEnumDestructable())==true then set t=CreateTrigger() call TriggerRegisterDeathEvent( t, GetEnumDestructable() ) call TriggerAddAction(t,function RegrowTrees) endif endfunction This is pretty simple also. It is called at Map Initialization. What it does is create a local trigger IF the destructible is a tree..this is found out by using the function IsDesTree which is found in this tutorial, "t" in this case. It adds the Event a Destructable dies and adds an action. Actually it will call function RegrowTrees everytime the event is activated. JASS:function RegrowTrees takes nothing returns nothing local destructable tree=GetDyingDestructable() call TriggerSleepAction(TreeRegrowTime()) call DestructableRestoreLife( tree, GetDestructableMaxLife(tree), true ) set tree=null endfunction What does this is it gets the dying destructable and sets it to local destructable tree. It then waits TreeRegrowTime seconds..if you don't know what this is yet...it will be explained. After the wait is done it will Revive the Destructable SHOWING birth animations. If you don't want it to show birth animations then set the TRUE to FALSE. JASS:constant function TreeRegrowTime takes nothing returns real return 10.00 //the amount of time you want before the tree respawns endfunction This constant function is the Wait that is used in the RegrowTrees function. It returns 10.00 seconds to wait..This return can never change while the system is running. If you want the trees to revive after a different alloted time then edit the 10.00 to whatever number you please. Example: JASS:constant function TreeRegrowTime takes nothing returns real return 30.00 //the amount of time you want before the tree respawns endfunction I just editted the 10.00 to 30.00 now after 30.00 seconds the trees will respawn instead of after 10.00 seconds. If you followed the tutorial you should have this in your map header by now.   Now comes the easy part... Inside your Map Initialization trigger add the action JASS:Custom script: call Int_Tree_Revive() Ok..so here is a screen shot of the Map Initialization trigger in the sample map.  Thanks for reading this tutorial. I hope it helped you learn how to create a tree revival system in JASS. -Hero Sample Map: Tree Revival System.w3x Any Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

Comments to the code: You don't need to check for the destructable ids. Use the Ahrl (Ghul Harvest) ability to check if a destructable is a tree. (it will automatically work for custom tree ids too). Here's the sample code: JASS:function IsDestructableTree takes destructable d returns boolean local boolean i = IsDestructableInvulnerable(d) local unit u = CreateUnit(Player(PLAYER_NEUTRAL_PASSIVE), <invisible caster>,GetWidgetX(d), GetWidgetY(d), 0) local boolean result = false call UnitAddAbility(u, 'Ahrl') if i then call SetDestructableInvulnerable(d, false) endif set result = IssueTargetOrder(u, "harvest", d) call RemoveUnit(u) if i then call SetDestructableInvulnerable(d, true) endif return result endfunction Other than that: Please use Jass tags for all the scripts and the trigger tag for the one GUI trigger that you're showing instead of images. If you really MUST use images, then they can't be hosted at offsite locations, instead attach them to your post and reference the attachment. This is part of our rules for tutorials. EDIT: looks better now, approved.... |
