[Trigger] Does Last Created Unit leaks?

[Wizardum]

Hey! I released a system recently, and somebody told me that using Last Created Unit instead of a variable with the last created unit stored, would leak. but I'm not so sure about this, I didn't even heard anything about this before.

So if anyone knows anything about this, please tell!

Thanks in advance

it doesnt leak.
wat leaks is dummies sitting around without expiration timers and are never removed.

OKay Thanks PoZor +rep

and btw there are ways of making dummies die after a period of time without using actions.

Set dummy to have low health and have negative regeneration.
ex: set life to 3 and regeneration to -3

 

[Wizardum]

yes that's how I do it

 

[Meticulous]

I tend to avoid that because I like to use a single dummy unit for most of my spells, and that often requires different durations.

 

[Wizardum]

yeah, in that case, timers are just necessary, and you might also get less space used.

Just use expiration timer, works well, and you can use different durations for different spells.

Like 1.5 normal expiration timer for "normal" dummy that only cacts a spell.

Or more like 15 seconds if you order the dummy to cast channeling ability for 10 seconds.

You get the point right?

I did already, I usually use only one dummy so the life regeneration method is better, though are both useful
