Leaking Sounds

[Jorko]

I need to clear some sound leaks via a trigger.
I tried to copy this trigger witch works fine for special effects:

• Actions
  • Custom script: local effect udg_L_EFFECT
  • Set L_EFFECT = (Last created special effect)
  • Wait 2.50 game-time seconds
  • Special Effect - Destroy L_EFFECT

Mine looks like this, but something is wrong with it as i get a error.

• Actions
  • Custom script: local effect udg_Sound
  • Set Sound = (Last played sound)
  • Wait 2.50 seconds
  • Sound - Destroy Sound

Can anyone correct my mistake or point out a better way to do it ?

• Custom script: local effect udg_Sound

Obviously, Sound is a sound variable, when "effect" is a Special Effect variable ;p
So, it should be

• Custom script: local sound s

If you are about to localize stuff, don't use global variables. E.G.:

• Custom script: local real x

vs.

• Custom script: local real udg_X

I understood about the replacing effect with sound part but that is just about it
So now it looks like this and i will see if it works.

• Actions
  • Custom script: local sound udg_Sound
  • Set Sound = (Last played sound)
  • Wait 2.50 seconds
  • Sound - Destroy Sound

Well i didn't get any errors so that must mean its working. Thanks.

In other words, what Pharaoh says about that only udg_ prefix is only used in globals but not in locals.

 

[Cokemonkey11]

he put the udg_ prefix in the local so that it could be used in GUI as a global.

Blizzard allows you to use one per trigger IIRC.
