Floating Text System

[Aeroblyctos]

Hey.

I made a pretty simple system about when clicking units they give some floating texts. The system however bugs:

• Doesn't show floating texts
• Starts to lag after 10 seconds

Also I think the system isn't that effective and it might give lag if a map have like hundreds of units(some chapters of the campaign I'm making have).

So I would like you to take a look, make it better, effective, less lag, anything.

Rep + credits will be given as a reward.

To me it seems you're adding the events to a wrong trigger.

There's also a leak, do like this:

• FloatingText CLICK
  • Set TempLoc = (Position of (Triggering unit))
  • Set TempLoc2 = (TempLoc offset by 150.00 towards 160.00 degrees)
  • ----
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc)
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc2)
  • Else - Actions

Oh, yea. Superb, the system seems to work just like I wanted. Thanks!

And no one is allowed to steal my awesome system without my permission(otherise these guys from my avatar will slaughter you).

Nothing that uses GUI can be awesome...

It wastes just too much time and prevents you from accessing even the more rudimentary features.

The above leak could be avoided completly in JASS by using X and Y cordinates directly. Instead GUI makes a location, turns it to X and Y then makes a new location from it resulting in both having to be removed.

Hey, I'm not here to debate can GUI made awesome systems or not. It was actually just a joke that this system is awesome, it's a very simple made system I created in 15 minutes. I agree that JASS is better when it comes to coding, but GUI is enough for me.
