Engineering Upgrade cause lagging

[thanh121]

I got a problem when i use the base skill Engineering Upgrade and other copies, it cause seriously frame rate reduction (60 -> 40 fps) when an unit learn it. I can see that DotA have many spell with that base skill (Synergy, Witchcraft) and no lagging. So is this my problem only? Is there any way to fixx it?

Which kind of abilities does it upgrade? Might be that one of the upgraded abilities can't handle the upgrade. Try to remove one and one ability and find out which one, if that is the case.

for now they're 3 Channel-base spells, i wonder if that's the problem, i'll test it when i get home

How many levels are there in each spell?

Usually if there are >10 levels it can cause spikes due to the spell not being preloaded.

Each spell have 3 levels, so...?

Use the PRESET trigger, shown bellow.
(Personal Recovery - Evade Spikes Engine Trigger)

Show Trigger

• Preset (Preload) Trigger
  • Events
    • Map Initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set tempPoint = (Center of (Playable map area))
    • Unit - Create 1 Casual Dummy for Neutral Passive at tempPoint facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Blazeshock [Improved +1] to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Blazeshock [Improved +2] to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Blazeshock [Improved +3] to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Shadow Burst [Improved +1] to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Shadow Burst [Improved +2] to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Shadow Burst [Improved +3] to (Last created unit)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_tempPoint)

tempPoint stands for Temporal Point, and it's a Point variable.
Casual Dummy should be a critter, or a dummy.
Generic expiration makes sure that the unit dies after a second (more than enough time to preload all skills).
Custom script removes leaks, and makes your map laggless and leakless.
Just add up all the abilities you improve with Engineering ability.
Hope this helps (=
