Floating text leaks

[Wesulmoon]

I have a floating text on unit death... but as I read in emjlr3's "memory leak" tutorial, i saw there is written if a floating text's lifespan it set, than u can remove floating text right away as next trigger (and there says it won't destroy it until lifespan seconds).
I tried so to minimise my memory leaks, but now there all txt is gone..

any other sugestions how to see floating text and to reduce leaks at the same time

also a my trigger:

• Then - Actions
  • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads ((String((Level of (Dying unit)))) + +) above (Dying unit) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 15.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
  • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
  • Floating Text - Hide (Last created floating text) for (All players)
  • Floating Text - Show (Last created floating text) for (Player group((Owner of (Killing unit))))
  • Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 50.00 towards 90.00 degrees
  • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 1.00 seconds
  • Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 3.00 seconds
  • Floating Text - Destroy (Last created floating text)
  • Player - Set (Owner of (Killing unit)) Current lumber to (((Owner of (Killing unit)) Current lumber) + (Level of (Dying unit)))

pls help

It looks like you've got it all pretty good.

Why, are you experience lag problems? It could be from something else.

Good Question...
answer: I don't
---
no i don't experience any lagg, but i whanna make a game as much leakless as my knowledge gives me ... u know, it is like i don't know why... just hate lag maybe if it my happen in later editions from triggered spells...

Always good to be safe, than sorry.

But on topic, yup, you've got a clean trigger!

 

[Wesulmoon]

hey, but it doesn't work... floating text does not appear...
---
so if i delete that last thing... (destroy last created floating text) than it works... (but that makes a leak )

and no sorry needed u did no harm...

No it won't leak without it, the lifespan will remove that leak

 

[Beetlebomb]

You have to give it a lifespan or it will die immediately.

• Floating Text - Destroy (Last created floating text)

I dont think you need this, they dont leak even without this.

Yes, floating texts will leak, but not if you somehow save it, and then wait the time you want and delete it...

Or (This is what I suggest) add a lifespan to the floating text, which will do all that automatically (No leaks ! )

A slightly fixed trigger above.
