its leak?
__________________________________________________
i still dont understand what dynamic indexing function in my spell, after i add dynamic stuff its like dont have function, no difference
see my trigger become screwed

 

[IcemanBo]

Better don't post triggers somewhere in thread always, but in spell description. It is more clean.

 

[kruzerg]

how to do that

 

[IcemanBo]

Somewhere top right corner of the spell there must be an "Update" button. There you can modify the description, and/or update the testmap.

First off, the counter is what allows you to use "wait" time. You set the max counter to whenever you want the spell to stop or do certain things.

• Events
  • Time - Every 0.10 seconds of game time
• Actions
  • Set ZIGCOUNTER[ZIGINT] = (ZIGCOUNTER[ZIGINT] + 0.10)
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • ZIGCOUNTER[ZIGINT] Greater than or equal to 3.00
    • Then - Actions
      • Your Actions

In this example from your Stop time MUI trigger, you're adding 0.10 to your Counter every 0.10 seconds. Directly after, you have a condition that makes it so that the following actions do not run until your Counter is greater than or equal to 3. Simple math will tell you that it will take 3 seconds for Counter to equal 3. In conclusion, your actions won't run until after 3 seconds have passed. Get it?

Where did you update your triggers? Some people don't feel like downloading to look at it.

 

[IcemanBo]

• Which trigger is up to date? In description or in your first post?
  Anyway, remove the triggers from your first post, and only update the ones in description.
  Also put them please into
  Hidden

  tags, because they stretch the site.
  [*]Don't hardcode when not needed. Create a config trigger and make as much configurable as possible.
  [*]Variable names should look like this: PREFIX_DescriptiveName, for example: SFS_Group, SFS_Caster, ...
  [*]The every x seconds event should start when item picked up, not randomly.
  [*]Periodic triggers should only run when needed, not always.

 

[kruzerg]

this hard than i thought

 

[troylowyee]

hey was wondering, why not just use a timer instead?? isit because timers are not MUI?
