Location Leaks

[Faith]

I had a question regarding location leaks and when they should be removed.
If, for example, you set a variable 'tempLoc' to the center of a region several times within something like a loop, would you need to remove the leak individually each time you set it, or after the loop?

For example, this is one of the triggers I use for my hero selection system.

• HS Generation
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer tempInt) from 1 to 36, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set tempLoc = (Center of HS_region[tempInt])
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • HS_heroType[tempInt] Not equal to No unit-type
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Create 1 HS_heroType[tempInt] for Neutral Passive at tempLoc facing 0.00 degrees
          • Else - Actions
            • Unit - Create 1 devUnit for Neutral Passive at tempLoc facing 0.00 degrees
            • Set HS_heroTaken[tempInt] = True
        • Set tempLoc = (Center of HS_region[0])
        • Set HS_hero[tempInt] = (Last created unit)
        • Unit - Make HS_hero[tempInt] face tempLoc over 0.00 seconds
        • Unit - Turn collision for HS_hero[tempInt] Off
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_tempLoc)

Here I remove the leak after the loop is finished, but I'm not sure whether or not this is the right spot for it.

You have to ensure the old location is removed, before you re-set the location variable.
So doing it once after the loop is not enough.

Thanks a bunch.
