simple question

How many loops should a map have? Is there a limit? At which count does the map only lag? Is it depended on the time interval (I mean if the loop restart after 0.02 or 2.0 sec)? pls help

The only way to add a time interval to loops is add a "Wait" function in them, and more then 6 loops running in any trigger will <Usually> cause wc3 to lag.

1 Very big loop (30 actions, 100 times) will lag also.

so if I add more than six "every bla bla seconds of the game" the game will lag, ok. But what happens if I turn them off when they aren't used or if the if-clauses in the loop got nothing to do? So you'll have to calculate the probability wether a time interval is running or not, to be sure that the map is free of lags

It also depends on the leaks you don't fix, whether you use Integer A/B, or a custom variable, how much the loop will activate, ...
Ohh, also: don't put waits in a loop.

Though I would personally use every 0.03 seconds (most of the time it has the same result).

Ok, this is just same that i did. Thx +rep

An other question: Is it important to clear Hashtables or not? In order that a map is working proper.
