[Trigger] Spell Cooldown bug

[Theguyoverthere]

Well I recently dl'd a spell from here and imported it to my map (spell: 'Blinkstrike' by ElBurrito from 7archers.w3x map). The spell works how I would like it excluding the fact that it does not go into cooldown. I'll try post a screenshot of the trigger later (after some sleep).

Once again, thanks to anyone who helps!

It leaks. Post the trigger, most likely its a location.

I guess the unit is interupted by the set of its location
Try this instead

call SetUnitX(whichunit,new x)
call SetUnitY(whichunit,new y)

but if you do you would have to check if the terrain is pathable with any kind of dummy to avoid that the units "blinks" into sth unpathable or into an unit

I have the same problem. Can some 1 give me advise in GUI or somethin

It leaks somewhere, even if you gave point as a variable and than removed location it still leaks, i know i have this problem too and i think i know whats wrong with my. I used about 6 locations for the spell 4 ares same only that they have fiferent order(something for angles and distances)

Mby you are using same variables for something?

 

[Theguyoverthere]

Heres the trigger as promised. The MP cost doesn't work either.

I check the trigger really fast and i found 4 location leaks.
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/f269/things-leak-35124/ here use variables for positions and than remove it.

I don't quite get what they are trying to say in that tutorial, could someone please explain how to remove leaks for this new trigger:

 

[Eleandor]

Use [trigger][/trigger] tags please. They're easier for me to copy.

The leakless trigger:

• Events
  • Unit - a unit Begins casting an ability
• Conditions
  • Ability being cast equal to Flash Blossom
• Actions
  • Set Blinker = Triggering unit
  • Set BlinkerTarget = Target unit of ability being cast
  • Set BlinkerPoint = Position of BlinkerTarget // this is a point variable
  • Special effect: blabla
  • Unit - move Blinker instantly to BlinkerPoint facing BlinkerPoint
  • Animation - blabla
  • Unit - cause blabla
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_BlinkerPoint)

 

[Theguyoverthere]

Its still leaking even with the point removal and all.

 

[Eleandor]

It's no longer leaking. Unless ofcourse you (think you) know it's leaking in which case you should be able to fix it yourself.

 

[Theguyoverthere]

WEll it is OK. However, the cooldown for the spell still does not trigger (got the mana cost working however).

 

[Seth21]

How do you expect the cooldown to work? The spell starts casting and then the caster is paused/moved thus stopping the casting of the spell. You must use "Starts the effect of an ability".

 

[Theguyoverthere]

Aha! Much obliged seth21, actually solved my problem! Thanks to all who tried as well.
