'Lghtning Attack' causes the game to crash!

[RobertMKD]

When two units with the ability 'Lightning Attack' attack one same unit at the same time the game crashes.. Can somebody explain me why and how do I fix this?

There's also lags even when only one unit is attacking with this ability..

I'm not aware of any intrinsic problem with Lightning Attack, multiple Chimaeras attack all the time without lag so there must be something else causing the problem.
Do you have any triggers that deal with the same units whose attacks are causing problems?

 

[RobertMKD]

No, I don't have any triggers for those units, it's pretty weird to me too, but I'm sure that 'Lightning Attack' is causing the crash..

Does removing LA fix the problem?

I can only assume some trigger is potentially infinitely looping in the background and it just so happens to occur when these particular units attack.

However, without more to go on this is only speculation. You could try posting the map/triggers maybe someone will have an idea or think of something to help.

A hero is using the Lightning Attack ability, but I still have no triggers that fire on attack for that hero..

Post the map( so the helpers can easily identify the issue ) you can remove the lightning ability and see if the problem still occurs, if the problem is solved by removing it then the Lightning attack causes it to crash, did you configure that Lightning attack? If yes then reset it to default values and test it again, Maybe the lightning model is broken or corrupted? Try different lightning model. Did the problem appears at any map? You can test the ability in a new testmap with no triggers ( as you said that it generates lag first before it crashed right? ) it is weird that you have no any trigger files that causes the problem.

Are you using a damage detection system or a system which uses on damage events? If both units damage the same unit at the same times some badly written on damage trigger responses could be causing the crash.

Okay, I don't know how and why, but the problem disappeared on it's own...
The Lightning Attack was not configured, and there was no on-damage triggers for the Lightning Attack...

But if the problem occurs again, I'll reply on this thread..
