TriggerClearActions() vs TriggerRemoveAction()

[--Thanatos--]

Which one's better?

 

[Ghan]

It depends. TriggerClearActions removes ALL actions. TriggerRemoveAction removes one action. Depends on if you want one gone, or all.

 

[--Thanatos--]

Well, Ty!

I asked because there's so many persons removing action by TriggerRemoveAction(). >_>

Well, technically, I think they both do the same thing. TriggerClearActions, yes, removes ALL actions. TriggerRemoveAction is the opposite of TriggerAddAction. The "action" portion for it is one trigger's actions. Only one portion that has actions. Only one function. I doubt many triggers have more than one action though.

TriggerAddAction returns triggeraction, and TriggerRemoveAction takes that action and removes it.

2 TriggerAddActions for one trig would have TriggerClearActions so that it removes both triggeractions.

Yes, I'm seriously using circular reasoning.

My point is, TriggerRemoveAction removes one action portion (part), and TriggerClearActions removes all action portions (parts).

You shouldnt use either... because you should never add actions in the first place.

instead, use conditions.

TriggerClearActions removes actions from the trigger, but it doesn't destroy them from what I know so they will still leak.
Either use TriggerRemoveAction or just use conditions.

I remember doing some testing with TriggerClearActions() a long, long, time ago, and if my memory serves me right, SFIlip is completely right.
