Trigger Lags (Random Hero)

[Yngwie]

When a user selects a random hero this trigger runs and all players in the game experience a minor 2 second game freeze. Any thoughts on what could cause this delay?

• random hero
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters safezone <gen>
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Random Hero
  • Actions
    • Set RandomInteger = (Random integer number between 1 and herocount)
    • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)
            • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 3 (Teal)
            • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 5 (Yellow)
            • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 7 (Green)
            • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 9 (Gray)
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Location = (Center of northherospawn <gen>)
        • Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) to Location over 0.00 seconds
        • Unit - Create 1 randomhero[RandomInteger] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Location facing Default building facing degrees
        • Unit Group - Add (Last created unit) to heros
        • Game - Display to (All players) for 8.00 seconds the text: ((playercolour[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + ((Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) + |r)) + has chosen a Random Hero and recieved an extra 200 gold!)
        • Player - Add 200 to (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Location)
      • Else - Actions
        • Set Location = (Center of southherospawn <gen>)
        • Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) to Location over 0.00 seconds
        • Unit - Create 1 randomhero[RandomInteger] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Location facing Default building facing degrees
        • Unit Group - Add (Last created unit) to heros
        • Game - Display to (All players) for 8.00 seconds the text: ((playercolour[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + ((Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) + |r)) + has chosen a Random Hero and recieved an extra 200 gold!)
        • Player - Add 200 to (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Location)
    • Set RandomInteger = 0

My guess is that the unit is loaded for the first time, which usually lags the game a bit.
Try placing all the heroes you choose beforehand into the map and test it again. It doesn't matter who the owner of this pre-placed heroes is, just that the unit is loaded upon map initialization.
