EMERGENCY! Help needed, +rep!

[BarzahdX]

Umm.. I was editing my AoS like I do every day, was in the midst of creating another hero, wanted to test out one of his new abilities, see if it worked.. So I test map, and nothing happens, the time of day remains the same, I don't gain gold, I can't see certain areas of the map.. Essentially, my triggers stopped functioning.. I don't know if all triggers stopped, or if it was just my initialization trigger.

My assumptions, is there a maximum amount of triggers you can have? Have too many and the oldest ones will begin to stop working? Or is there an option to make just all triggers not work?

Here's the trigger.. Not that'll mean anything.

Map Initialization
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set Combine_Charged_Items = True
        Set Combine_Charges_Max = 15
        Set End_Game_If_All_Gone = False
        Set Hero_Revive_Time_Factor = 3.00
        Set Hostile_Revive_Time = 120.00
        Set Player_Starting_Gold = 900
        Set Repick_Cost_Ammount = -150
        Set Sort_Board_By_Kills = True
        -------- - --------
        -------- Order is important. Leave as is. --------
        -------- - --------
        Game - Set the time of day to 8.00
        Trigger - Run Setup Players <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run The Empire Heroes <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run Outcasts Heroes <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run Heroes General Setup <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run Player Colors <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run Store Creeps <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run Setup Invunerable <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run Super Creeps Setup <gen> (ignoring conditions)
        Trigger - Run Setup Items <gen> (ignoring conditions)

This is the first trigger in the game, it runs everything, without it, there is nothing--it relies on nothing but the event.

PLEASE HELP!!

Maybe some sort of corruption, idk.

 

[Renendaru]

Mind posting any changes to triggers, and the new spells?

 

[BarzahdX]

The map worked perfectly(as it has for past months) before I made these 3 triggers.. After I made these 3, and tested the map, my error occured.

If I need to change the variables that's not a problem, but I made those variables as I made these triggers, so they can't be used in any previous triggers...

> Maybe some sort of corruption, idk. <

Don't say that!

EDIT: Even after I remove said triggers, it didn't fix the problem.

 

[Renendaru]

Try turning those 3 off then testing it. If it loads, there it is. If it doesn't, it's corrupted.

 

[BarzahdX]

It is corrupted :banghead:, so now I must be learned in the field of corruption! Please, tutor me!

What caused it be corrupted? What causes corruptions? If I did the same thing with an earlier version, will it, too, become corrupted? How can I prevent corruptions? Are corruptions just spontaneous and random? How common are they? Should I anticipate them in the future?

Please.. Answer at least some of my questions! /bow

 

[Renendaru]

Corruptions can happen when exiting while game is saving, a bad custom script, and some others...

 

[BarzahdX]

Hmm.. "exiting while game is saving" like exiting the editor? Ok, that's not an issue.. As for custom script--only scripts I use are for cleaning links.. So for the sake of clarification, is it(as an example): call RemoveLocation (udg_TempPoint), or call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)? There's a space between "n" and "(" in the first one, is it supposed to be there? Also, with relevence to variable arrays, is removing the whole variable(array number and all) necessary? Example: call DestroyGroup (udg_TempGroup[1]) is that poorly written? Would exluding the array([1]) fix that? Sorry for the wall of words without spacing them out.. I'd like to find out about these now, considering they're my enemy...

 

[Pharaoh_]

It won't make any difference. It works for both "with" or "without" blank.
Yes, it is necessary, don't let me tell you that arrays may cause even more leak/lag if not removed with custom scripts than normal variables (without arrays)..

 

[BarzahdX]

Perfect, thank you.. I always specified the arrays, and I had the space in between there.. Must have been something in other.

Now, if I did the same thing with an earlier version map, do you think the process would repeat itself? Or would it be too unpredictable? I'll give it a shot.. Thank you two for your help, +rep.

 

[BarzahdX]

I apologize for bumping this when it's unessecary, but I wanted to inform you all that I repeated what I did before, and it didn't get corrupted.. Just for the sake of knowledge.. Peculiar.
