Selection Bug, I need Help

[Reflexar]

Hello. My map Rise of Empires got a weird selection bug.
I don't know when it happens, but what happens is that you can't order your units to do stuffs after it had happen. Then it takes a while, like a minute or two and then u can order them again.:banghead:

I suspect these triggers:

scope HouseEvolve initializer Init

globals
    private integer array HOUSES
endglobals

private function Callback takes nothing returns nothing
    local unit u = GetEnumUnit()
    local integer id = GetUnitTypeId(u)
    local integer i = 0

    loop
        exitwhen HOUSES<i> == 0
        if id == HOUSES<i>then
            if GetUnitState(u,UNIT_STATE_MANA) == GetUnitState(u, UNIT_STATE_MAX_MANA) and GetUnitTypeId(u) != HOUSES[2] then // h00G = Max upgrade
                call ReplaceUnitBJ(u,HOUSES[i+1], bj_UNIT_STATE_METHOD_DEFAULTS)
            elseif GetUnitState(u,UNIT_STATE_MANA) &lt; 1 and GetUnitTypeId(u) != HOUSES[0] then // The poorest upgrade
                call ReplaceUnitBJ(u,HOUSES[i-1], bj_UNIT_STATE_METHOD_DEFAULTS)
            endif
            exitwhen true
        endif
        set i = i+1
    endloop
endfunction

private function GroupFilter takes nothing returns boolean
    local integer i = 0
    local integer id = GetUnitTypeId(GetFilterUnit())
    
    loop
        exitwhen HOUSES<i> == 0 or id == HOUSES<i>
        set i = i+1
    endloop
    return id == HOUSES<i>
endfunction

private function Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local group houses = CreateGroup()

    call GroupEnumUnitsInRect(houses,GetWorldBounds(),Condition(function GroupFilter))
    call ForGroup(houses,function Callback)
    call DestroyGroup(houses)
endfunction

private function Init takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_House_Evolving = CreateTrigger(  )
    set HOUSES[0] = &#039;h00B&#039;
    set HOUSES[1] = &#039;h00Y&#039;
    set HOUSES[2] = &#039;h00L&#039;
    set HOUSES[3] = 3 //This tells loops when to end.
    call TriggerRegisterTimerEvent(gg_trg_House_Evolving, 3, true)
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_House_Evolving, function Actions )
endfunction


endscope</i></i></i></i></i>

It might have something to do with if u have a building selected when it's replaced

• Gate Animation For Open Gate
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Casting unit)) Equal to Gate (Horizontal) closed
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Open/Close
  • Actions
    • Wait 0.10 seconds
    • Animation - Play (Casting unit)'s death alternate animation
    • Set Temp_Group = (Units currently selected by (Owner of (Casting unit)))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Temp_Group and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Picked unit)) Equal to Gate (Horizontal) open
          • Then - Actions
            • Animation - Play (Picked unit)'s death alternate animation
          • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Temp_Group)

Please Help me, I will give u reputation if you do.!

I have never experienced this bug, though it may be from destroying the group of units being selected.

Try right before you call DestroyGroup(udg_Temp_Group), to clear the players selection.

 

[Reflexar]

Ehm what if they have other units selected???

Ehm what if they have other units selected???

Why would that matter?

The spell would be over.

 

[Reflexar]

Oh

You mean the second trigger

Well that might be the problem But isn't it more likely it's the first trigger that bugs?

I just took a quick glance at the second.

Never really looked that long enough at your first, the only thing i noticed is you leak a group.

You don't null it.

• Set Temp_Group = (Units currently selected by (Owner of (Casting unit)))

Units currently Selected says something about this should not be used in Trigger conditions. Can that be something?

 

[TriggerHappy]

Have you tried

Selection - Clear selection...

before you destroy the group??

Search for Pan Camera (As Necessary) action in your triggers and change it to Pan Camera action. It is the reason. (imo)
