Fade cause sever split?

[Angel_Island]

Does this trigger cause a server split?

• Flash
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Uses an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Flash
  • Actions
    • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()) then
    • Cinematic - Fade out over 0.00 seconds using texture White Mask and color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%) with 0.00% transparency
    • Cinematic - Fade in over 2.00 seconds using texture White Mask and color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%) with 0.00% transparency
    • Custom script: endif
    • Set temp_point = (Random point in (Playable map area))
    • Unit - Move (Triggering unit) instantly to temp_point
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_point)

    // Create a timer to end the cinematic fade.
    set bj_cineFadeFinishTimer = CreateTimer()//<<<<< this
    call TimerStart(bj_cineFadeFinishTimer, duration, false, function FinishCinematicFadeBJ)

        if (duration > 0) then
            call AbortCinematicFadeBJ()
            call CinematicFadeCommonBJ(red, green, blue, duration * 0.5, tex, 100, trans)
            call ContinueCinematicFadeAfterBJ(duration * 0.5, red, green, blue, trans, tex)
            call FinishCinematicFadeAfterBJ(duration)

    else
        // Unrecognized fadetype - ignore the request.
    endif
endfunction

You can't call a function that returns a handle inside a local block. [ljass]CreateTimer()[/ljass] returns a handle. Therefore, you can't use that function inside a local block. The solution would be to use a 100% Jass trigger and create the timer differently.

Any suggestions on how to make it work?

function CustomFinishCinematicFade takes nothing returns nothing
  call PauseTimer(GetExpiredTimer())
  call DisplayCineFilter(false)
  call EnableUserUI(true)
endfunction

function foo takes nothing returns nothing
  local timer t = CreateTimer()
  if GetLocalPlayer==GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()) then
    call CinematicFadeCommonBJ(...)
    call TimerStart(t,.04,false,function CustomFinishCinematicFade)
  endif
endfunction

Untested, may or may not work.

run fade for everyone but invisible (null params) for given player run visible fade.

problem fixed without additional coding

if GetLocalPlayer() = PlayerUneed then
set paramlocal = value
else
set paramlocal = value
endif
call Fade(paramlocal)
