Maybe you guys could help me to find a good tooltip for my both spells and btw its my first spells. Give me some feedback please

 

[Pyrogasm]

Neither of your spells are MUI, but the second one could be with periodic triggers and some unit groups.

The first is just screwed mainly because a 0.01 second wait isn't a 0.01 second wait; it's more like a 0.27 second wait. You're going to need timers if you want it to be that precise.

>You're going to need timers if you want it to be that precise.

How can i make a timer?

 

[duyen]

Um they both leak, Lots

 

[Dr.Mercure]

>Um they both leak, Lots

Maybe u could tell me how I can make my spells leakless (or tell me where the leaks are). Thanks

 

[Insane!]

you have to clear all the variables

Set Unit = No unit

(that sets it to null)

Custom Scrpit: call RemoveLocation (udg_point)

that sets the point to null

 

[0zaru]

No. Global units don't need to be setted to null. Also you aren't there setting the point to null, you are just removing the location stored in the variable.

 

[Dr.Mercure]

Thanks for your comments... added Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_SS_Point) at the end of shadowstep trigger and fixed a bug (uploaded the map).

 

[Insane!]

you could make the parisite effect longer

and shadow step is like blink but just has a lot of little sugary bits to it

>You're going to need timers if you want it to be that precise.

How can i make a timer?

open your variable editor, make new variable, give it a name and make its variable type Timer.

in the inoculatedead trigger, ur unit group at the end of the trigger leaks. removing all units from the unit group just leaves you with an empty unit group. it may not have anything in it, but it still exists. set a unit group variable to units within the specified range matching the specified conditions, pick all units within that group variable and do actions, THEN add

call DestroyGroup (udg_<Unit group variable's EXACT name>)

thatll remove all traces of that particular setting of the unit group from existance, so it wont cause a leak

overall, spells look nice. might wanna change the War Stomp SFX to be on the ground, rather than on the unit. looks a bit odd with a war stomp flailing around wildly according to the units death animation.

 

[Tinki3]

You need to add the tooltips to the abilities yourself .

In the "Inoculate" trigger, this line leaks:

> Special Effect - Create a special effect at (Position of Ino_Target) using Objects\Spawnmodels\Human\HumanBlood\HumanBloodFootman.mdl

You need to store what's in bold inside a point variable, reference that content
via that variable, and then simply remove the variable with custom script
when your finished using it, just like the way you did in the other spell's trigger.

I highly advise you to read this tutorial, excellent for memory leak cleaning.

couldn't innoculate have been done with doom or parasite?
Just give the spawned creep 1hp and -1hp regeneration, explosive death, and the model as whatever sfx you want?
just a thought...
