Need a variable?

[The Undaddy]

Just wondering,if I had a bunch of "GetTriggerUnit()" calls withing a function,would it be better to add a variable for it?

I suppose it's not necessary if you don't have waits.

no it wouldnt be neccessary since Unit-events arent called so fast, thus its not so bad if there are a few function calls. but it can make the coding better to overlook

More than 2? Variable. YMMV

Your mileage may vary i.e. what someone else says may not be what you think.

In this case, one person may thinks its easier to use a variable for 2+ instance of GetTriggerUnit, another may think it's easier to use GetTriggerUnit throughout the function regardless of how many times it must be called

The less calls you have, the faster it'll be.

You don't need it. Even without waits you don't need it.

However, single local is faster than three GetTriggerUnit() calls, not to mention the code is shorter.
