remove tiny gold dot leaks after tome purchase

[tom_mai78101]

Ever see those tiny gold sparks/dots/(coin models?)/rocks/etc. on the ground when playing a game with a Tomes Shop that you can buy tomes at?



That's just a simple instance of such leaks.

Why I call it leaks?

Spoiler

It made me lag so badly (I had bought more than 1200 tomes per play on that map), the host sometimes kick me out for the lagging.

--------------------

Any ideas?
And what are they called exactly?

From my guess thats a special effect activated when u use a Tome wich hasn't been destroyed. But my guess might be wrong.

dont use the tome model, try the original chest model for the tome-like items

But in this case, it's too popular to avoid such a decision.

In melee maps, normal triggering of the tomes can sometimes bring out this stuff (a very tiny amount of it), so it's not that simple to avoid this. (I can tell from my laptop. Most of the Vista hogs my internal hardware very much.)

Are there any ways we can remove it? Should someone who has time to ask questions in the Blizzard Support chat room help out here?

You buy the tome, you only see the death animation of it.
If you want to see that so badly you can just use a trigger to create the animation/effect.

death animation

Ah...so that's what the gold stuffs are. Thanks for that.

And no other triggers can remove animations?

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Tome of Strength
  • Actions
    • Item - Remove (Item being manipulated)

Prevents the "poof" from the picked up tome to appear though.

You call that gold stuff?
If you zoom in and look at it you can see that it's a tome model in like 0.10 scaling value. Not gold stuff.

Yeah but the twinkle kinda goes over it so it kinda looks gold.

Add a .5 to a 1 secound wait to this and you still get the death animation but you also get the lag sourse (The death Model) removed.

Ps. it will also be better to move all your tomes to the same folder in the OE and use a class comparison instead of a single item comparison.

Is (Item being Manipulated) a local? :x

 

[Dameon]

item being manipulated is specific to the trigger. The waits wont screw any thing up.

 

[Cookiemaster]

Then it should work properly.

Thanks, everyone. Rep to Cookiemaster for the trigger.
