Not bad at all, there are a few things you can do though, down in the initTrig function you can replace the code down there with
Code:
local trigger trig=CreateTrigger()
call TriggerRegisterPlayerEventEndCinematic(trig, Player(0))
call TriggerAddAction(trig, function Trig_JASS_Test_Actions)
This basically makes it so you dont have to keep the trigger stored in a global variable, it saves a very small amount of memory if you don't need to refer to that specific trigger in another trigger.

Other than that, there are no leaks and I'm pretty impressed Razz

Just a convention thing, I would change the name of the Trig_JASS_Test_Actions function to something a little simpler, like Cinematic_Text or something, then you'll have to change the reference down in the inittrig as well. Also, if you have NewGen editor, there are a few nice things you can do using scopes and private functions that make naming automated

Another note, the InitTrig must be named InitTrig_NameOfTrigger or the map wont initialize the trigger on map load, so you sadly can't change that without changing the name of the trigger.

local trigger trig=CreateTrigger()
call TriggerRegisterPlayerEventEndCinematic(trig, Player(0))
call TriggerAddAction(trig, function Trig_JASS_Test_Actions) = the entire IntTrig part ?



edit : ugh i keep makin a damn mistake...idk how to fix it..

Spoiler:


Ahh i see (a+b was messed up and should have been (a+b)

function Trig_JASS_test_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
set udg_glob = 34
call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), "a= "+I2S(udg_glob) )
endfunction

it gives me the Error here too...

Btw Pythagoras, will you please help us get through 8.0 before you ditch? If you can just help us get 8.0 out and support us until a stable version, that would help alot.

where did i flame? i just dont like you.. i never insulted you tho so i never flamed.. but im about too as there are several reasons why you are the worst possible choice to take the map..

you cuss ALOT.. not saying that i dont.. but im also not a candidate to take the map.. pluss i been working on it.. you dont filter yourself at all and the worsed part about it is people like kuro get on my ass about it all the time.. and no one says jackshit to you about it.. you couldn't even keep a shaman position for a month without having several people acccurately accusing you of flaming, spamming, pointless banning/kicking.. the only reason you kept it for that long and were never really kicked out of it u simply left is because we have a shitty leader.. diaster.. who favored you as a friend and never did shit about it.. and yes maybe zync was just checkin in and wont stay around but even so i really dont think you of all of our members should be map makers.. i personaly think you will just design the game around one element the one YOU like and shit on all the other ones and only make the game to YOUR liking and shit on everyone elses ideas..

Lol, I'm glad your all so dedicated, but it is going to take a VERY long time for any of you to be ready to even understand MM&M. (No offense meant, I am just stating a fact.)

Zync is probably not coming back, Pythagoras seems to have lost interest, no one else has the necessary skill/knowledge/time. Right now I'm just hoping for a stable 8.0 before the game goes on hiatus.

well i have plenty of free time..besides hangin with my Best friend...which is grounded now..learning jass shouldn't take long...considering i could put in 8+ hours a day( for the next 7 days )...but once i learn ill be glad to take over....im just tring to help..im tried of waiting and so are other people...I was just checking it out.( JASS ) and it cought intrest...so i think itll be a small step for MMM and a big step for me...

Meh, more power to you. The only problem is that your a little less mature than our previous mappers. Preferably you would have community votes for things and give someone like Jay final decision. (No offense.)

jeezus pyth is leaving aswell? wtf is this madness. oh well if hes lost intrest thats fine you cant blame him. So kill might be new map maker eh? well atleast hes got balls to step up and take the wheel so give him some encouragement guys and give him a chance to show us if hes got what it takes to be editor of MM&M, time isnt an issue atm hes learning and that takes time, but we are lucky to have someone like killll to do somthing that isnt always fun and may take up alot of his time. So killl i say to you "killll you f***cking legend! and goodluck with your learning XD"

btw Atreyu = MAD ASS BAND (Exs and Ohs mad song)

Yeah, Pythagoras may or may not be leaving, he is simply getting busier and having less interest. He never wanted to be the main mapper, but rather just the back-up coder.

well from what we were told by pyth all that needs to be done is grunt work which should be relatively simple, jass shouldn't be that rough for me seeing I know 3 languages and have 5 years experience w/ gui it just I've little free time, and then there is the issue of me having my other map. But one thing I'd like pyth to be ready to do is send 8.0 with a needed change log so one of us can finish it, if he isn't going to.
