Weapon (Special Effect) on units?!

I will start to tell english is not my native language :\ ...

Anyway... there is something that is really annoying, it is when you create a weapon (Special Effect) on a unit, and you want to change it to another weapon...
Then is the only way (I see), to destroy the Special effect and create an new one... But... It takes some secs before the old special effect is destroyed so in these secs he got two weapons...

So... is there another way to do it...?? :(

it takes timer to remove a special effect?!? what do you mean with weapon, is it like a sword or some glowy ball? If it is a sword it should just remove atm u call to remove it, be sure to remove before you create the second weapon

How to be sure..??? :\

and yes its a Sword, Bow, Axe thing.. you know... downloaded...
and im using special effect - destroy (Variable)

That's not good. It shouldn't take time to remove it. What kind of computer are you running on?

Right click your trigger title and select copy as text and post it here.

Weapon Destroy
Events
Unit - A unit Loses an item
Conditions
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Sturdy War Axe
Then - Actions
Special Effect - Destroy WeaponSE[1]
Else - Actions

Hmmm, that should't lag to bad. You should take a look at your Special Effect line though, will you always be sure that that will be the right special effect to remove? Can you also post the trigger where you display the item?

The problem is that it take few secs before it get destroyed...
is there a way to destroy it in another way...?

That is true, above.

It is because your weapon models were really bad quality and didn't even have a death animation
