Quick Leak Question

FatalError	Just a quick question about leaks: Do they apply to local variables as well? I'm pretty sure they do, but someone told me they don't... :/

mmx2000	Not sure about JASS but I also thought that the benefit of most local var's besides being MUI, are destroyed at the end of the function they are scoped to.

Yeah you're right...I just saw a script that cleared out all locals in the function at the end of the function...I guess he just wasted his time. XD

PipeDream	Locals are really !#%^^%# broke. You have to deallocate everything of handle type that isn't visible in the game, mostly locations, groups and finished SFX. Also, for every handle that points to a temporary object, you have to fix this.
