Desync Problem

Hi folks,

I am creating an Aeon of Strife-like map at the moment, and every time when one of the Barracks gets destroyed, there is a chance that several people will drop. I think my "<specific unit> dies" trigger is desyncing the map, has anyone ever had a similar problem with that kind of trigger?

Other than the event, the triggers looks like the following:

se b5 dies
Events
Unit - Barracks 0002 <gen> Dies
Conditions
Actions
Trigger - Turn on nw rd ne <gen>
Set sp_realtarget[1] = sp_regions[12]
Set sp_toggle[15] = False
Game - Display to (All players) the text: <...>

"turn on nw rd ne" is a trigger that redirects unit movement, however it will not be executed with the death of all barracks, so I figured has to be some other part of the trigger.

If anyone has experience with this, please give me a hint. I tried to fix this several times now (There were initially more actions in the trigger, which I already removed) and my ideas are running out.

If noone knows an answer to this, I will have to do a manual check if the unit exists every 1.00 seconds or something like that, does anyone know if this takes more cpu time than a "Unit dies" event trigger?

errh, It would be better if you posted the trigger with the weird name, I am almost sure that the problem is inside it, cause the other stuff doesn't look suspicious.

Try disabling the call to that trigger and see if your map desyncs.

Hi Vaxorian, thanks for your post.

As you request:

nw rd ne
Events
Unit - A unit enters ne base <gen>
Conditions
((Triggering unit) is in (Units owned by Player 10 (Light Blue))) Equal to True
Actions
Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Attack-Move To (Center of se castle <gen>)

Now, I am pretty sure that the map desyncs with or without the trigger, because the map sometimes also desynchs on e.g. this trigger:

se b4 dies
Events
Unit - Barracks 0005 <gen> Dies
Conditions
Actions
Set sp_realtarget[6] = sp_regions[11]
Set sp_realtarget[4] = sp_regions[11]
Set sp_toggle[14] = False
Game - Display to (All players) the text: A Strygian Barracks...

Which is as you can see nearly the exact same trigger as the above, but without the trigger call.

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce the desync easily because it does not occur every time, it occurs seemingly at random - the only thing I am sure of is that it occurs in the exact moment one of my barracks is destroyed, and at no other time, and each of these barracks has a similar trigger running on their death. Sometimes it works perfectly - the next game everyone gets dropped, and the next game then only one person gets dropped. It's really weird :(
