[Trigger] the leaking group and locations

[stan0033]

"things that leak" says that a leak can be prevented from group by declaring in with variable and then destroy it with

• Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_units_around_caster)

Will it leak if I call this function 2.30 seconds later?

same for locations, I have point array with 4 locations

• Custom script: Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_loc(1,2,3,4))

I jsut wonder about this leaking concept. So to not leak I must destroy these, does it matter when?

It will if the variable is set to another value within that 2.3 seconds.

No, it doesn't matter when but be careful to not lose the reference.

Also arrays are defined like this

Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_loc[0])

Generally it does not matter when you free your memory again.

But you must ensure that you clean it before you overwrite the variable again.

So if you can 100% ensure you dont use this variable during your wait time you can clean it after, but if not you must clean if before the wait.

But anyway waiting like this is no good habit and you should avoid working like this, and also avoiding working with waits.

Thank, you.

The variable is not set to another value withing this time, so guess there's no problem.

edit: IcemanBo, this is not wait, but timer, is only for the spell, you know. Yes, imma try to avoid waits.
