[Spell Bug] Huge lag spell loop

Hi , I've decided to make a spellpack and I am still in the first spell . Well it is 99% but it seems that my spell's loop lags horribly . I tried custom scripts , but don't work . Can you figure out what the problem is? +rep

The loop

• Super Nova Loop
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer LoopInteger) from 1 to 3, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set SN_NextPReal[LoopInteger] = (SN_NextPReal[LoopInteger] + 1.00)
        • Set SN_NextP[LoopInteger] = (Super_Nova_Point[Opt_Integer1] offset by 300.00 towards SN_NextPReal[LoopInteger] degrees)
        • Set Super_Nova_Point2[LoopInteger] = (SN_NextP[LoopInteger] offset by 30.00 towards (Facing of Super_Nova_Dummy[LoopInteger]) degrees)
        • Unit - Move Super_Nova_Dummy[LoopInteger] instantly to SN_NextP[LoopInteger], facing SN_NextPReal[LoopInteger] degrees
        • Unit - Move Super_Nova_Wave[LoopInteger] instantly to Super_Nova_Point2[LoopInteger]
        • Unit - Make Super_Nova_Wave[LoopInteger] face SN_NextPReal[LoopInteger] over 0.00 seconds
        • Unit - Move Super_Nova_Wave2[LoopInteger] instantly to Super_Nova_Point2[LoopInteger]
        • Unit - Make Super_Nova_Wave2[LoopInteger] face SN_NextPReal[LoopInteger] over 0.00 seconds
        • Unit - Move Super_Nova_Wave3[LoopInteger] instantly to Super_Nova_Point2[LoopInteger]
        • Unit - Make Super_Nova_Wave3[LoopInteger] face SN_NextPReal[LoopInteger] over 0.00 seconds
        • Unit - Create 1 Fire for (Player(Opt_Integer1)) at Super_Nova_Point2[LoopInteger] facing (Facing of Super_Nova_Dummy[LoopInteger]) degrees
        • Set Super_Nova_FireGroup = (Units owned by (Player(Opt_Integer1)) of type Fire)
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Super_Nova_FireGroup and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Set Super_Nova_Fire_NP = (Position of (Picked unit))
            • Set Super_Nova_Point3 = (Super_Nova_Fire_NP offset by 30.00 towards (Facing of (Picked unit)) degrees)
            • Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to Super_Nova_Point3
            • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Super_Nova_Fire_NP)
            • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Super_Nova_Point3)
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Super_Nova_Point2[udg_LoopInteger])
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_SN_NextP[udg_LoopInteger])
        • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Super_Nova_FireGroup)

why just not create unit facing that point in action: Unit - create unit facing point?

 

[jonhysone]

I don't get you

 

[BloodDrunk]

oh, I didn't saw good (it's 3am here lol...)

Try removing the Unit group part and see if it lags (how many units are in unit group?)

 

[deathismyfriend]

creating a loop every iteration isnt a good idea. it may be the cause of ur lag.

 

[jonhysone]

I need to loop the trigger with the iteration . The lag started when creating the unit group . How can i change the unit group idea into another triggers that work the same ?

 

[deathismyfriend]

try adding the units to the group that are owned by the player. then in ur unit group actions use an ITE and make the condition equal to typ fire. See if that helps any.

 

[BloodDrunk]

I knew it was unit group...
Well, try wht DeathIsMyFriend suggested and see how does that works

 

[Maker]

Move unit instantly is a costly operation. Disable those lines to test if the lag is caused by them. SetUnitX/Y would be better.

 

[jonhysone]

Unit Groups ,I removed 'em . They are the cause of the big lags .
@deathismyfriend :
I still don't get you . I think I am doing what you say exactly

 

[jonhysone]

Bump ! The spell still lags with bad computers
