Sometimes the orbs don't attack and after some time they start again to attack.
I can't figure out why do they do that.

Well, i didn't read through all the trigger, just a quick review and saw your trigger is very inefficiency and leaks. ( sorry about that this didn't related to the question )

In On Cast trigger, LS_Angel1/2/3/4/5 with array is totally pointless since they all using the same data for each unit. Set LS_Angel with array is enough and also declare them inside Init trigger.

Polar Offset leaks one location at (LS_Point[1] offset by...) this should store into variable.

Most of your functions are totally repeat with the same actions, please use integer loop.

Anything use over 2 times should store into a variable like (Owner of LS_TrigUnit[LS_MaxIndex]) to prevent unneeded calls.


I think this post should post in Triggers&Scripts Forum...

Where it leaks? Please point out the line because I can't find it.

Polar Offset has 2 leak, 1 point is center of... another point is center of offset by...

No, it's not because 1st sphere is at 72°, 2nd is at 144 etc..
Without those 5 variables all 5 spheres would move with same angle, but with this all 5 have different angles.

Well you're right :D I really got bit lazy to check the others trigger, sorry about that didn't notice the loop integer got use these angel.


Can't use loop because I have 5 different variables.

Although it has different variables, but all increased by 1, like 1, 2, 3 etc.. this can be easily done by loop and shorten your time to make trigger.

I'm sorry haha, I just don't see it haha
In which trigger it is?

;)

I still use different variables, I can't seem to find a way to do this with loop? :D

Oh yea, how to do this with loop? :p

Since you have 5 LS_Sphere for each unit after casted a spell, with constant. So at start you could Set LS_IndexMax = (LS_IndexMax + 5), so the 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 array size will be reserved for 5 sphere. If a unit done cast and wan replace just set LS_Sphere[LS_Loop] = LS_Sphere[(LS_IndexMax - 5)] , for replacing sphere just do 5-5, 6-5 etc... I gave you the idea and later that use your brain to figure out how to make loop :D i tired now and going to sleep.
