Out of sync in lan

[TheLordOfChaos201]

Hows it everyone BOOOOM!

I've been having trouble with this set of code for a while now. It makes the heroes dance and get powered up, which works fine on single player, but on lan it causes an out of sync error in which every player is now playing an entirely different game.

I've slept of this code and I've meditated over it but I've not been able to figure out what's causing the out of sync. Currently it's deactivated in my map because of this error which makes it unplayable

I've added comments to the for/if loops that are too big and frankly unlikely to be causing problems.

Thanks for the help in advance

Ok, I can't be sure this is it but its a start.
1. Waits = bad. Use set timer instead.
2. You destroy a special effect twice ... not sure that does anything, but just don't. do it.
3. You should not create a region larger than the map. Just use (playable map) instead of (999999.0, 999999.0).

What is the event? Are there other triggers that might be effected by this trigger that cause the desync? This doesn't look like it should do that on its own.

Terrain Deformations are prone to desyncs.


Also, check for double frees, like that lightning. This will not desync, but it will crash the trigger.

It used to desync even before the defomation was added

You destroy... last created lightning...
There was some lightning problems when they are destroyed and you try to do something on them again.

But in any case, can you upload the trigger in trigger tags?
You can copy the trigger as text ([ctrl] + [shift] + [c]) and then place them between TRIGGER tags in here.

Waits in multiplayer are impractical due to their exaggerated inaccuracy and can cause desyncs because waits aren't synced between computers. You also can't expect that TempPoint will be the same handle after a 4 second wait, so you need to move that before the wait. As Wietlol said, (Last created lightning) could being you much grievance. You'll want to use indexing or hashtables.

are hash tables better or worse. I've been Told they slow down your game

 

[Bribe]

Don't worry about the speed; in this case it won't matter.

Geez, terrain deformations are known to cause desyncs and yet you just shrug off the possibility of them being the cause?

Eh, whatever then. Go on a witch hunt and ignore the obvious.
