removing events from triggers

[maskedpoptart]

world editor supports adding events to triggers, but is there any way to remove events from triggers (or at least replace them)?

for example, i want to be able to change how often a periodic trigger runs. the trigger starts off with no events. i do

call TriggerRegisterTimerEventPeriodic( gg_trg_periodic_unit_spawn, udg_unitSpawnDelay )

to make it start spawning units every unitSpawnDelay seconds. I want to remove this event later, change the value of unitSpawnDelay, and add the event again. i'm not sure if adding another periodic event would just overwrite the old one, but i would assume not.

Maybe you could disable your trigger and enable another one with a different value?

Or have an integer variable for the spawn delay, and just set it to a different value?

I really don't know JASS that much and I may of misunderstood your question.

no, theres no way to remove events.

Suggestion: Use Timers.

The only way to remove events is to destroy the trigger which the events are bound to and make a new one and reattach any events that you wanted to stay.
This however is not the safest thing to do as destroying triggers can cause handle value bugs resulting in WC3 crashing.

Wait he wasn't using timers before?
