                If ((Terrain type at UP[(Player number of (Picked player))]) Equal to Northrend - Ice) then do (Set SLIDE[(Player number of (Picked player))] = (UP[(Player number of (Picked player))] offset by speed towards (Facing of (Picked unit)) degrees)) else do (Set SLIDE[(Player number of (Picked player))] = (Position of (Picked unit)))

i hope some of this helps.:)


P.s this is not for rep and the reason for this is so people like 'xxseerxx' also known as 'Warravan' which i know in warcraft can post there troubles.
if you have a comment which is not productive Don't post it.
If you find a leak ect post corrections.:)

i will not answer straight away at friends place.

Most inefficent triggers. :( Ok they work. But, these are worse than the examples ALREADY given on this site in the tutorials sections and in the free trigger code section.

Your unit group trigger leaks. As does your sliding trigger. And some of the others.

        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_UP[5])
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_UP[6])

That's some redundant code... and you are the first person I know that calls delete on a global variable without doing anything to it after.

Yep, globals are impossible to leak unless you move the pointer elsewhere (Don't tell me Blizzard did that... I'll be very sad)

call RemoveLocation(udg_SLIDE[1])
Click to expand...

put the remove thing in a for loop.

There is none, they just use separate indexes (A, B) so you can have a loop within a loop (you could use two A loops, but that would throw the whole thing out of whack. Then again, there are a few rare cases in which that method is useful).

What is it with these threads? What do you think the WE Help Zone is for? So people can post their problems and get help. Why do you need a thread on it? So you can score some +rep?
