TempPoint Overuse?

[Radicool]

I have a variable in my map named "TempPoint" which is a point type variable. For nearly all my triggers, I use TempPoint. Since my map has been receiving random fatal errors, I wondered if its because a variable shouldn't be used so frequently, or even if a rare event happened that 2 triggers utilized the "TempPoint" at the same time by sheer chance?

Note: I never put a wait in between setting the variable and nulling the variable.

no, it shouldnt.

just remember dont null it, remove it

set udg_TempPoint = null != call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

Ok thanks for that. Yeah I do remove it, I just thought nulling and removing were the same thing, lol. Thanks for your help.

As WarCraft III's Jass interpreter is single threaded this is physically not possible. Even if it was the case you could solve it by locking the WarCraft III process to a single thread using task manager.

If anything it is better to use a variable as much as possible as it will make more efficient use of the processor cache but the speed gains are minimal compared with the slow speed of JASS.

Interesting. Thanks for your answer too Dr.
