[Trigger] Destroying Groups Question

[Airandius]

I know about group leaks a bit.
But I was wondering, do you clean destructible groups the same way as for example; player and unit groups?

So like this:

• Destructible - Pick every destructible within 256.00 of RandomPoint and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Destructible - Remove (Picked destructible)

EDIT: Above there should be a custom script saying: Bj want to destroy group, but then spelled the correct way ofc.

That doesn't destroys it and also player and unit groups aren't destroyed like that.
Watch out for the functions DestroyGroup(udg_GroupVar) and DestroyForce(udg_PlayerGroupVar) ... both require custom scripts

I forgot to add custom script: bj want to destroy group, ( I know u type it different but I find it a pain in the ass to remember.

I think I remember Eccho saying that Destructible Groups do not leak. Even if it does, there is no way to remove the leak. There is no custom script for destroying Destructible groups, only Unit and Player Groups.

You there are more than units and player groups leaks. there are locations, windows, unit groups, and special effects

Don't point out the obvious my good friend.
I was only asking if there was a way to clean up destructible groups.

I don't think there are any destructible groups. As you can see, the "Pick destructible"-actions don't take group as parameter, only region on circle. Therefor they shouldn't leak.

Yes, and it most likely returns a "group" of some sort. Unless it has its own group type which is only initialized and removed inside the function (an array / linked list / whatever), it probably leaks. But Blizzard are hopefully not THAT morons. You can of course just test it with picking lots of destructibles and checking if your game lags or not.
