stopping them?

[memory leaks]

does any1 here know how to stop memory leaks? i have a baddly lagging map that needs help

[glock]

lol messed up, i mean for the NAME OF THE TOPIC to be memory leaks, this isnt in the same format as almost all the other forums of the enitre world

well.....there are two ways....
the 1st one is to reduce number of triggers
and 2nd is to convert all thigers into jass

for 2nd u must read some tuotorials etc

try using more precision with variables...

using JASS doesn't exactly reduce lag (correct me if i am wrong). but some triggers can be cut down and become more efficient while using JASS.

to reduce lag, you probably need to nullify unused variables and such.

yea especially if you create units via unit-groups-action.

Well, you need to use Custom Script because Blizzard "forgot" to implement the special functions to avoid leaks into GUI. You will need to nullify all variable (set their value to nothing) once you no longer use them, remove all locations (points in GUI) but for that you need a special funtion. Also, groups should be removed once you no longer need them.

Some functions which return a location (such as PolarProjection) or group (Pick Up Every Unit Within Range) may leak if they are not removed properly. I suggest you read this tutorial, it will help you a lot: www.wc3campaigns.com/showthread.php?t=55022&page=1&pp=25
