JASS is what triggers really are. The editor auto-maticaly converts all your triggers into JASS, which is a scripting language. Ive been told its similar to C++, another programming language. For now just stick with normal triggers. If you rally wanna get good at mapping dont get too advanced too quikcly, open up a simple map like Cube Td or a maul and see how they're made.

I've done that many times. I know how it works, and i can work with the trigger editor. I'm not a 'rookie' prusay, but I'm not an expert. And I may be still a Novice to triggering. But i know the basic triggers, mostly.

Learn More

then learn more triggers! Jass isn't what you think! you shouldn't use jass if u want to make a cinematic! from what i see u want to use jass EVERYWHERE,my suggestion,if you want to learn jass EASILY then:
1)You must have programming knowledge!
2)You should know very well triggers!

i have more than a year with World Editor using GUI(triggers) and now i use JASS!

JASS is used for spells. And try learning it, JASS for me is easier than GUI triggers :O
