    DestroyEffect() doesn't work as expected

    When I use DestroyEffect() to remove a special effect, it sometimes doesn't play the model's death animation. I'd say it is played correctly about 75% of the time. The other 25% of the time, the model just disappears. Any idea what's wrong here, or should I just try attaching every effect to a...

    Custom Game Screen Crash

    I can test my map just fine, but whenever I do F10+E+Q (Exit Game -> Quit Game) and go back to the Custom Game screen, my WC3 crashes. So I basically can't play the map a second time without it crashing. I like to think that it's just my WC3, but it doesn't do that for other maps... I am using...

    ObjectMerger won't work.

    Attaching an image to a unit

    *hits head on the wall twice to calm down* Allright, so what I'm trying to do here is to show an image over a unit's head. So far, so good, I made an image with a trigger allright... the thing is, when we're seeing it from an angle, we don't see it the same way as when we look at it from the...

    Cancelling bounty

    Like, if you ever play HLW RoC, you'll know what I'm talking about. If not, then whenever you kill a unit with a shrine, a texttag appears at the unit's position, showing, say, "-45" in red, if the killed unit gave you 45 bounty. That way it cancels the bounty. Well, my question is, basically ...
