Moving a unit outside the map's bounds using SetUnitX/Y will STILL crash the game. But I did not want to use a wrapper for SetUnitX/Y that does the bounds checking, an extra function call seems like killing the whole purpose of using SetUnitX/Y... Adding this library to your map (just adding it) [...]

Post 5:

Really, been testing: Left/Right/Top edges do not crash. Bottom edge crashes: However it doesn't crash at the instant you call SetUnitY, it crashes when the frame is rendered (apparently, could be another thing besides rendering...) so, yep this library really prevents crashes. There is another thing with edges, regardless of the crash we knew about for so long, if you issue an order to a unit too far from the edges, the game will freeze, yep BoundSentinel prevents that as well.

Pages 2 and 3 were not archived.

Maybe no longer crashes on Reforged.

  1. SetUnitX/Y
  2. Order a unit too far out
  3. Test all directions

This resource is crashing the game during loading time on patch 1.31.1.

The following line is the culprit:call SetUnitY(dummy, GetRectMaxY(world) + 1000). Removing the + 1000 fixed the issue.
