Game Freeze problem.

[Cohadar]

I have some serious bug in pyramidal defence.

At some point game simply freezes.
What is most annoying is that I cannot debug it.
It freezes and when I turn on task manager I see wc3 is using 99% CPU and that it allocates memory like crazy.

Any ideas in witch direction to look?

No idea what it could be. I think the best you can do is to test the map by disabling some triggers, and that way you have a chance of finding the trigger that freezes the game (if the reason is a trigger).

What trigger could possibly make game halt like that?
It happens only recently so I assume it has something to do with highborn

If it is recently, try testing it with the old version map. Or even undo some changes that made recently is your best option.

What trigger could possibly make game halt like that?

function Hang takes nothing returns nothing
    call TimerStart(CreateTimer(), 0, true, function Hang)
endfunction

function Hang takes nothing returns nothing
    call TimerStart(CreateTimer(), 0, true, function Hang)
endfunction

i think it's more gonna crush it than freeze it

You better test things, I did

Best.
Function.
Ever.

Back on topic, you would have to do what we would have to do, check all the new additions and figure out exactly which one of them is still enabled when it crashes.

erm, I think I solved the problem.
There is a new version of pyramidal available.

EDIT: in case someone cares:
halt was cause by using slam spell (from new highborne hero) on a flying units
