Custom Scripts

[Mapster]

Ok i hear a lot about these "destroy region" or "destroy unitgroup" and so on.

But what exactly do these do and how do you know what ones to use and where?

I've made a lot of triggers but more than likely they all have leaks so if someone could help me out so i could make some of these for myself that would be awesome

A leak is a bit of information that is stored in your computer's RAM that is not eliminated after it is used. This unused piece of info takes up space. Each time you create a new leak, it takes up more and more space. Eventually, your computer can't take it. It freezes up. So, to prevent leaks, we use the destroy scripts.

Points: (Position of (Triggering Unit)) leaks. Unless you set it to a Point variable, use the variable, then use this script:

call RemoveLocation(udg_NameOfPointVariable)

Unit Groups: Pick Every Unit in Unit Group leaks. To remove:

call DestroyGroup(udg_NameOfUnitGroup)

Special Effects leak.

Other things leak. Look up a leak tutorial. There are a few of them.
