[Trigger] Can you Find the Bug?!

[VergilThazaar]

Hello! I have a problem with my Map (NEX HERO DEFENSE).
There was a Bug report that I myself have met, but could not confirm.

- BUG DETAILS -

When creeps die at the point & time of spawning, there is a chance of
just stopping the Spawn for ever. I tryied to fix that bug by
turning off the trigger "Timer" when the Spawning Starts and
turn it back on when the Spawning Ends.

Bug Report

hi dude 3 days ago i played your map (last version) on garena,some guy host it.... That was 1 time that i play your map ...,i play about 20 min and creeps just stop to spawn,i dont now whay but they stop coming,maybe that hapens 1 time in 1000 games,but.....We wait about 5 min and nothing hapen,so we [...]

Man you have serious leaks in creep spawning,today i test 3-4 times your map alone and i use chit becouse i cant test alone...I use "whosyourdaddy'' cheat, i enter spawning place and start killing creeps while they spawning,in wave with Gargoyle they stop spawning,also when i rmk they stop spawning in other waves,i think that problem can be if players kill creeps while they spawning or maybe if they kill creeps very fast [...]

What do you use StopSpawn for?

 

[VergilThazaar]

StopSpawn Not equal to CreepSpawnCount(LevelCount)

At every level there are -CreepSpawnCount- creeps. When they are all spawned the trigger will stop. e.g. If there should be spawned 20 creeps, at every spawn I add one to -StopSpawn- and when it reaches 20 it stops the trigger.

 

[Mcasdf]

Does it always stop on the same level or just random?

 

[VergilThazaar]

I have a variable for every level that predefines from the start of the game which level is what type and how many creeps.

• Set CreepLevel[1] = Ghoul |cff303030[Level 1]|r
• Set CreepSpawnCount[1] = 999

 

[Mcasdf]

Actually I meant the bug ^^

 

[VergilThazaar]

Oh, random.

 

[Mcasdf]

StopSpawn becomes bigger and bigger? So after level 10 it's 10 and on level 20 it's 20?

 

[VergilThazaar]

No, that's -LevelCount-. -StopSpawn- increases each time a unit is spawned, and when -StopSpawn- = -CreepSpawnCount- then the trigger stops.

 

[reason 3]

I had a quick look in your trigger and i don't see anything wrong...Of course i don't know for what are you using each variable.I can only tell you 1 thing^^
Remove the -Do Nothing action.It just makes your trigger slower.

 

[VergilThazaar]

Ok, but the major problem is Da Bug!

 

[reason 3]

Ok, but the major problem is Da Bug!

Hmm,i might can make a few tests on this later this evening,i will reply if i find something.

 

[PvSvN]

dont you need a to add a set stopspawn to 0 for evey level ?

 

[VergilThazaar]

You're right, I forgot a trigger. Just added!
