Removing leaks of special effects

[Exum]

Hi, i'm removing all leaks of special effects in my map but i have a problem with the Flamme Strike one, i'm doing like this :

• Special effect - Create a special effect at PointSpecialEffect using Abilities\Spells\Human\FlameStrike\FlameStrike1.mdl
• Special effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)

The problem is that, while adding "Destroy last special effect", it don't show this one anymore. Can anyone tells me which special effects i can't destroy in order to see these ?
And must i creat a variable for each flamme strike effects to remove these after the animation ?

Thanks,

Exum

yes you must create a variable but How many flame strikes do you intend to create at once? Because if it's just one youwill need just one variable.
But why you don't use the Flamme strike spell to avoid these problems?

17 for one spell, making 1 variable for each of each player will be boring... But np, i must persevering

Thanks for answer

you may create a array it will reduce your work or you may create a dummy unit with flame strike, create 17 dummys, add an expiration timer for then, and order then to cast flame strike. Doing this way you won't need any variables

Good idea, thank you, hmm by the way could i use dummy unit based on flame strike model ? As units don't leak...

When you click "choose model" and the list of effects pops up, view the editor's main window. There's a preview window for the effect. Check the death animation. When a effect is destroyed, the death animation is played.

But you can do it with dummies, although creating many dummies may cause lag on some compruters.

Thank you Maker, this will be helpful

If it has no death animation it will be visible for 5 seconds and then destroyed
