[Trigger] how to remove this leak?

[Weng]

There's a Effect Spamming...

• Bloody Wolf skill 1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Wolf Clap
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 360, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Wolf_Clap[(Integer A)] = ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by 150.00 towards (Real((Integer A))) degrees)
    • For each (Integer B) from 1 to 360, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect at Wolf_Clap[(Integer B)] using Objects\Spawnmodels\Human\HumanLargeDeathExplode\HumanLargeDeathExplode.mdl
        • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)

1) You're not fixing all location leaks (you're creating 360 of them each time the ability is cast, as you do not remove "Position of (Triggering Unit)").
2) Do not use an array to fix this, you can all combine it into 1 loop.
3) Do not loop to 360. That's an overabundance of effects.

• Actions
  • Set tempLoc1 = (Position of (Triggering unit))
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set tempLoc2 = (tempLoc1 offset by 150.00 towards (30.00 x (Real((Integer A)))) degrees)
      • Special Effect - Create a special effect at tempLoc2 using Objects\Spawnmodels\Human\HumanLargeDeathExplode\HumanLargeDeathExplode.mdl
      • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_tempLoc2 )
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_tempLoc1 )

This fixes the leaks + shows a reasonable amount of effects (12 instead of 360).

Thanks!

To get the value of "30.00" from apo's trigger, here's the formula;
360 / numberOfSpecialEffect

For example you want 6 SFX to be created circling a location, so each degree will be;
360 / 6 = 60

So, each SFX will be spawned 60 degrees spaced out to each other.
