SFilip, could you please help me understand what really happens to the boolexpr in the following trigger?
I'm assuming local boolexpr f = Condition(function KillSelected) creates a handle and makes f point to it.
I'm also assuming DestroyBoolExpr(f) destroys the handle f is pointing to, and not the actual condition.
Why else, would this trigger work?
I'm pretty sure I'm wrong on something here, I just don't know what.


The trigger kills every selected unit on esc.
JASS:
function KillSelected takes nothing returns boolean
	call KillUnit(GetFilterUnit())
	return false
endfunction

function OnEsc takes nothing returns boolean
	local group g = CreateGroup()
	local boolexpr f = Condition(function KillSelected)
	call GroupEnumUnitsSelected(g, GetTriggerPlayer(), f)
	call DestroyBoolExpr(f)
	call DestroyGroup(g)
	set f = null
	set g = null
	return false
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_SelectedOnEsc takes nothing returns nothing
	local trigger trigEsc = CreateTrigger()
	local integer i = 0
	loop
		call TriggerRegisterPlayerEvent(trigEsc, Player(i), EVENT_PLAYER_END_CINEMATIC)
		set i = i + 1
		exitwhen(i == 12)
	endloop
	call TriggerAddCondition(trigEsc, Condition(function OnEsc))
	set trigEsc = null
endfunction



kallieblakie, I'll look through your code and see what I can find

Edit: I can't compile this for obvious reasons, but I think it is leakfree now.

I took the liberty to remove some locations in favor of coordinates. It's easier to work with as reals and integers can't leak. You can change the rest if you want to. Variables usually only have to be destroyed and nulled at the same indentation level that they are created. This is by no means a rule though.

Anyway, the trigger doesn't work! it doesn't properly destroy the loop when it hits a unit. ARGGHS
Click to expand...

Hmm... that's weird. I must have done a mistake. Can you tell me more about what happens?

Does the arrow move as it should and as far as it should?
Do units get damaged when the arrow goes through them?
Does it hit some times but not always?
etc.

I need more info to correct the mistake without being able to test myself.


Here is how you can pinpoint the bug yourself:
Place small debug messages after every if, elseif and else so you know what code is being run and what's not.

Then find out why the if/elseif argument isn't returning true by checking what the varibales in that argument is all the way from the beginning of the trigger and up to the if/elseif in question. When you find out where the value is wrong, you can usually know why and correct it.


Addition - Skip this if you want:

Put this function in your header. If you don't know what that is, look for mapname.w3x above all your triggers.
JASS:
function DebugUnitTag takes string s, unit u returns nothing
	local texttag tag = CreateTextTag()
	local integer width = StringLength(s)
	call SetTextTagText(tag, s, 0.023)
	call SetTextTagPos(tag, GetUnitX(u) - width * 10, GetUnitY(u), 0.)
	call SetTextTagColor(tag, 255, 50, 50, 255)
	call SetTextTagPermanent(tag, false)
	call SetTextTagLifespan(tag, 3.)
	call SetTextTagFadepoint(tag, 1.5)
	call SetTextTagVelocity(tag, 0., .071)
	set tag = null
endfunction


Now you can write DebugUnitTag("something or whatever", p) and you will get a floating text saying "something or whatever" over the unit p. It's leakless and I find it can help pinpoint bugs much easier.

Good hunting!

I've already corrected the mistake. The script you made allows the arrow to does extra few hits to the enemy before it disappears. say, supposingly it should deal 100 damage, your script allows the arrow to "poke" the enemy 4-5 times, dealing 500 damage instead.


JASS:
			elseif ( (IsUnitEnemy(p, GetOwningPlayer(caster)) == true)) then
				call UnitDamageTarget(caster, p, udg_Damage[PlayerNo], false, false, ATTACK_TYPE_NORMAL, DAMAGE_TYPE_NORMAL, null)

				set dummy = CreateUnitAtLoc(GetOwningPlayer(caster), 'hfoo', Next, 0.00)
				call UnitAddAbility(dummy, 'ANsb')
				call SetUnitAbilityLevel(dummy, 'ANsb', udg_Stun[PlayerNo])
				call IssueTargetOrder(dummy, "thunderbolt", p)
				call UnitApplyTimedLife(dummy, 'BTLF', 2.00)

				set locA = GetUnitLoc(caster)
				set locB = GetUnitLoc(arrow)
				call UnitDamageTarget(caster, p, (( I2R(udg_I_PrecisionLevel[PlayerNo]) * ( 0.06 * DPP(locA,locB)))+( ( 35000.00 * ( 0.40 * I2R(udg_I_bladeLevel[PlayerNo]) ) ) / DPP(locA,locB))),false,true, ATTACK_TYPE_NORMAL, DAMAGE_TYPE_NORMAL, WEAPON_TYPE_METAL_HEAVY_BASH )
				call RemoveLocation (locA)
				call RemoveLocation (locB)
				set locA = null
				set locB = null
				call RemoveUnit(arrow)
				call FlushHandleLocals(Loop)
				call PauseTimer(Loop)
				call DestroyTimer(Loop)


the
JASS:
				call RemoveUnit(arrow)

cannot be placed so low in the trigger. I shifted it up and it works perfectly fine.

Thanks for your help!

Ah, very nice that you fixed it. Does it leak anymore?

I have an ability much like this, and I remove the arrow at the very end of the code. Guess yours does something I don't really understand or something.

By the way... Now that I look over the code I posted for you again, I see some mistakes. I removed the Next location from most of the code and replaced it with x and y, but I didn't remember to remove it where the dummy is created.

In any case, glad to be of some help.
