EDIT: ok i'll explain this more:

or overusing of "SFX" w/o destroying them can cause lag too. .
>so to prevent it from lagging, you will use "turn off trigger" or "destroy SFX".

Disable them in the trigger editor is the best solution to prevent them lagging.



Serious: What triggers?... I don't see any.

Answer: yes

Answer: Sometimes
>so to prevent it from lagging, you will use "turn off trigger" or "destroy SFX".
Answer: Turn off trigger is better
>now i'm asking for other examples on how to prevent lags like these.
Answer: A periodic event of 0.01 seconds can be changed to 0.05 or even 0.1 seconds, the difference is not so big, and when the trigger is no more usefull, make a system that turns it on and off

My version:

> using periodic events like "every 0.01 seconds" can cause lag during the game right?

Not really. In fact, using such events won't lag. It's the action within the trigger which determines whether or not it will lag.


> overusing of "SFX" w/o destroying them can cause lag too. .

Yeah. Of course. Creating 100 sfx without destroying is something like creating 100 units and leave them there doing nothing. The amount build up will cause lag. This also depends on your computer speed.


> so to prevent it from lagging, you will use "turn off trigger" or "destroy SFX".

It depends on situation. But generally yeah.
