Only a simple LEAK question

[Zunariel]

some answers I couldnt find in the leak section

1. Does a loop trigger leak even if it does nothing?
2. Does it leak when for example it goes from 1-100 has a Condition check but the check is false everytime.

3. When I trigger example: Unit cast shockwave at Position of Last created unit

Does the "Position of Last Created unit" leak although I didnt call it as a point. Or does I have to call Destry udg... Position of Last Created Unit ???

Thanks for answers

1-2. AFAIK no, and if it does, it's insignificantly small.

3. The point leaks (position of unit)

• Set TempPoint = Postion of (Last created unit)
• Unit - Order unit to cast shockwave at TempPoint
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

Ah thank you hmmm when I have to correct a lot in my map but who cares ^^

Does a trigger like Move unit to center of Rect1 also leak like this, do I have to remove the point in the center, too?

 

[rulerofiron99]

Yes, that also leaks.

Basically anything in the point "function list" will leak.

The other important leak you need to worry about is the Unit Group leak - that's whenever you use e.g. (last created unit group) or (units in region). To fix this one is simpler - you just need to add a custom script before the unit group action:

• Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true

PS: Don't double-post

Yes if Rect1 is a region, you have to set a point, then remove it, so no leaks will occur. All/most points leak, so use the same method as rulerofiron99 said.

I would suggest reading this

1. Does a loop trigger leak even if it does nothing?
Leaks only occur if you create something and forget to remove it when it is no longer useful. You are not creating anything with flow control.

2. Again, nothing is created so no leak can occur.

3. The function call itself will not leak. However the location you pass it can if you forget to remove it.

Does the "Position of Last Created unit" leak although I didnt call it as a point. Or does I have to call Destry udg... Position of Last Created Unit ???

In GUI this will leak as you create a location and never remove it.

actually, even triggers itself leaks coz of the CreateTrigger(), but it's really not a big deal if you dont destroy a trigger even if you're not using it anymre...
you should worry about position/effect/sound/unit leaks...
