unit leaks

[MateoSoetsu]

Do units leak?
(casting unit), (last replaced unit), (target unit of ability being cast), etc
Do I have to save these as a temp unit variable and delete them after use, like points/groups. And are they MUI, I've only done testing by myself so far.

I can post a trigger if you need an example of how I use them.

No.

Some are.
The three you mentioned not really though.
"Last <whatever>" is only valid until some other action creates the same thing.

Casting event responses, like Casting unit, Target point and Target unit are rather famous for being unstable.
They get lost after waits more often than not, and they tend to "disappear" in triggers that do their own casting.

"Triggering unit" is very stable.
So are most others, like "Dying unit".

If there are no waits is there a problem with "last ___ unit" from trigger to trigger.

Just wondering real quick...

What does MUI stand for?

Multi unit instanceable
