    [Trigger] Request - Check triggers for leaks?

    Hey ya'll. I've recently been updating a semi-popular version of Warchasers called WarchasersNightmarev27. This particular version is notorious for crashing 1-3 hours into the game (sometimes individual player crashes, sometimes game wide) and I'm assuming it's caused by memory leaks in the...

    Fixing and understanding leaks

    Hello Hive! My map starts getting really nasty lag spikes after about 10-30 seconds, so I'm pretty sure it's because of leaks. I'm sure I have several leaky triggers, but I have found one trigger in particular, and when I disable it I get no lag issues, so this is where I want to start...
