Hey guys, I'm currently working on a spawn system that suits my map, and it creates random units at random regions in the game. Now the problem here is I want to use locations over and over again, and I'm worried that it will leak.
Now I know leaks occur (hopefully), when you use a variable to store it, then you don't remove/destroy it, and set the same variable to another location/unit group/player group. But in my spawn system I will not be setting another location only the five I have.
Here is a little code to help understand;
Now will this leak, even though I'm not going to be setting my variable (SpawnLoc[]), to another location?
