[Solved] Detect item dying

[-Manuel-]

Hello to everyone.
Is there a way to detect when a item dying from an attack?
I need to remove certain data attached to item custom value but i dont find any method that help me.

Don't attach anything to things that you cannot observe the lifecycle of. This is why unit indexers exist.

Ehmm then, there's no way?
I will try to track all the items Hp in a periodic trigger and remove them if hp is 0. I hope this works.
Thanks for reply.

There is this native TriggerRegisterDeathEvent(trigger, widget (can be item, destructible or unit)), which could help you out.

You declare it as follows:

call TriggerRegisterDeathEvent(trigger, widget) with trigger and widget being arbitrary values.

Solved.

Bear in mind that using that leaks an event. You need to either dynamically destroy triggers for multiple items, or create one trigger per item, then destroy it, either will work. I actually forgot that TriggerRegisterDeathEvent works for widgets.

Yeah, i destroy the trigger, every X items removed, create trigger and add items stored in a list.
Thanks .
