[functions] Preloader
on: April 11, 2022, 09:08:53 PM
Runs the filename as a preload script, only if the filename has an extension. For Jass, the capabilities are very restricted.

There're no restrictions for Lua code if you add it to Preload files (which are supposed to be in Jass), that's only possible with dirty hacks or manual editing. If the map runs in Lua mode, the Jass code is transpiled using Jass2Lua before execution.

Look up order when "Allow Local Files" is enabled:
0. Map resources
1. %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Warcraft III\CustomMapData\
2. Game data folder: Warcraft III\_retail_\
3. (presumably) game MPQs/CASC

Example from blizzard.j:
Code: jass
  1. if (doPreload) then
  2.         call Preloader( "scripts\\HumanMelee.pld" )
  3. endif
