Terrain Deformation Spells

[coolyoshi1]

I heard that terrain deformations can cause desyncs so I'm trying to remove all of them from my map.

-war stomp
-thunder clap
-shockwave
-volcano
-earthquake

Are there any other spells that cause deformations?

You don't have to panic immidiately just because you have heard that deformations are "dirty" effects. True, it's adviced not to use many spells that trigger deformation, yet some won't hurt.

Please share more of your knowledge. For example which spells, when can terrain deformation desyncs happen, etc..

Which spells? This has nothing to do with spells, but the terrain deformation itself. terraindeformation handle always leak, there is no way of removing them. The desync can mostly only occur when in the same game sesion there are people playing on different OS and with different visual settings. Every time unit is exposed to deformation, desync might occur.

I'm unsure about native spells that cause deformations, yet those are probably troublesome too.

I recently watched a replay where some guy casted a spell that used thunderclap and the game desynced 2 seconds later. Nothing else was happening during the time that happened so I want to fix this asap.

^ read previous post.

I said that I'm "unsure" in regard to native spells because I haven't been dealing with that problem for a long time. However, as stated, they probably undergo the same procedure too.

Hm, thats the only thing everyone seems to know about it. Different OS... terrain deformation... can happen... dont use it...
