The system seems to work fine and in fact it does except for one crucial bug that gets my but soar! When playing multiplayer, SOMETIMES, the creep spawn overspawns... which means that the system keeps spawning one type of unit in a current level continiously, mostly around the levels from 8-22... Ok now this bug isn't good because seriously it will hang your computer and crash it. I've asked a couple of people back at www.wc3sear.ch and they say it is memory leak. Well I think i've preety much fixed the memory leak but still the creep overspawn keeps happening. I am desperate for help! I need someone to help me solve this issue.

Thanks

Hmmm, I don't see anything popping out at me, what precisely happens when the creeps over spawn?

MY only guess would be to put an If(unit_type[lvl]>0) Then "For each variable A to Unit_Type[lvl]"

because doing a switch from 1 to 0 might cause problems. See if that fixes it, but most likely it won't.

Oooh cleaver, thanks dude, that idea did not pop out... many thanks, it just fixed the whole thing

 

[DoOs_101]

Hey sorry for double posting, but when I implement your method, somehow the spawning system is messed up, instead of spawning 5 creeps at every 8 locations, it only spawns 4, sometimes 3.... can you help me with this?

thanks
