Alright, I made this spell, and it actually froze wc3, idk why, but it did,
Can someone look this over and tell me why?
Trigger:
  • Siphon Life
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to (==) Siphon Life
    • Actions
      • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • CustomValue Greater than or equal to (>=) 1000
        • Then - Actions
          • Set CustomValue = 1
        • Else - Actions
          • Set CustomValue = (CustomValue + 1)
      • Set caster[CustomValue] = (Triggering unit)
      • Set targetunit[CustomValue] = (Target unit of ability being cast)
      • Set damage[CustomValue] = (Level of Siphon Life for caster[CustomValue])
      • Set manastolen[CustomValue] = (manastolen[CustomValue] x (Level of Siphon Life for caster[CustomValue]))
      • Unit - Cause caster[CustomValue] to damage targetunit[CustomValue], dealing (Real(damage[CustomValue])) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
      • Unit - Set mana of targetunit[CustomValue] to ((Mana of targetunit[CustomValue]) - (Real(manastolen[CustomValue])))
      • Unit - Set life of caster[CustomValue] to ((Life of caster[CustomValue]) + (Real(damage[CustomValue])))
      • Unit - Set mana of caster[CustomValue] to ((Mana of caster[CustomValue]) + (Real(manastolen[CustomValue])))
      • Set caster[CustomValue] = No unit
      • Set targetunit[CustomValue] = No unit
      • Set targetunit[CustomValue] = No unit

shouldnt freeze because of this trigger. (though the trigger looks kinda funky)
most probably some other trigger which is running an infinite loop. thats the most frequent reason for a crash.

No, It is just this spell, the whole thing froze and then I had to force close wc3, and im storing everything in an array, because that makes it MUI, or so ive read

the value of CustomValue might be the reason, because its varying (or doing loops). try assigning a different integer variable. .. actually, its much ok if your variables are not array. just try changing it first no non-array.

instant spells are always MUI, to make them not MUI nor MPI you would have to try very hard.
and nothing in this trigger could make the game crash. there just aint anything which could do this. you are just setting values here, no loops, no iterations.

the only thing i could imagine is that your spell you are casting might have gotten so badly set values that the game crashes when you use it.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
