[Trigger] more question about leaks

[caleman]

do we really need to put angles (math - angle between points) into variables? do they leak?

if yes then do we remove the leak just like we would with a normal point location? example: call RemoveLocation(udg_shithere)

and last, please look at the picture and tell me if everything is ok

thx

1. use trigger tags
2. you got 2 point variables, and point variables leak so you need to remove them simple as that. The math does not leak the point does.

this forum trigger tags? idk how to use them

anyways, what about "group unit - pick every unit in expa2 and do (actions)"

that wont leak since im using a group variable right?

• Grupo de unidad - Pick every unit in expa2 and do (Actions)
  • Bucle: Acciones
    • Set posi03 = (Position of (Picked unit))
    • Set pluto2 = (posi03 offset by 70.00 towards (Angle from CastPoint9003 to posi03) degrees)
    • Unidad - Move (Picked unit) instantly to pluto2
    • Destructible - Pick every destructible within 200.00 of posi03 and do (Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible))
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_pluto2)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_posi03)

cool, thx

Right click on your trigger -> "copy as text", then put [trigger]the text[/trigger] and it will show up just like in world editor.

There is this beautyfull thread. http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/triggers-scripts-269/things-leak-35124/

Unit groups leak too.

 

[caleman]

i destroy my unit group variable in the main trigger after everything in the spell is done (the pic i posted is a loop)

• Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_shithere)

but now i ask if since i use the group more than once (take a look at the pic) and only destroy it once at the end, if that is ok or leaks

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/triggers-scripts-269/things-leak-35124/

(in that guide the group is used once and inmediatly destroyed)

• Set GroupVar = Pick every unit in (Playable Map Area)
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in GroupVar and do (Unit - Hide (Picked unit))
• Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_GroupVar)

im being rlly paranoid but i need my map leakless, thx

For every allocation (creation of a group, NOT usage of a group) comes a deallocation (destroy).

 

[Squiggy]

Nonetheless, setting reals to variables may come in handy if a) you plan on using it in a loop and/or b) if you want to have your code as clean as possible to quickly change values.

thats good news for me

i just read somewhere that destructibles can leak too, true or not?

• Destructible - Pick every destructible within 200.00 of posi03 and do (Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible))

dont tell me i need a variable for them too...

AFAIK, Destructible Group Picking does not leak, but Unit Group does leak.
