I need to know how many milliseconds it takes the Devouring One zergling to pass an entire tile in milliseconds, both straight across, and from around a corner. Of course.. this is in milliseconds on a map with hyper triggers. I also need to know how long it takes a trigger to loop when preserved with hyper triggers on. Here's the trig just to show you.

Trigger

Conditions:

¤ Always();

Actions:

¤ (Whatever happens here is irrelevant)

¤ Preserve Trigger

Examples: (X=Ling, O=Tile, S=Destination, K=Impassable Terrain)

Straight
XOS

Corner
XK
OS




Any help is accepted

Why not test it yourself?

Because I've heard rumors that trig loops takes a certain amount of milliseconds and that would ruin the variable I am trying to find. Also, I don't know of any way to measure this through StarEdit nor through a stopwatch (because I don't have one).

EDIT: I'll give you all of my minerals if you're the first to answer this question.

1000 milliseconds

It doesn't take Devouring One an entire second to run across a 1x1 tile. -.-

500-625 i think, cant remember where i picked that up from.somehwere in between those i think 500 though. there isnt really a way to test it exactly but just estimate it. it wont take 1 sec (1000 ml) to run 1 tile, that im sure of
o yea hyper triggers dont toggle the triggers speed if it has a wait in it, only if theres no wait the hyp trig will work, so if u gonna use hyper in the trigger w.e it is, make a wait in it, and if thers a wait in it there no 2 second for the preserve trigger

it takes around 800, keep in mind, that SC time is accelerated in Fastest, wait is only accurate in Normal speed.

With hyper triggers, on Fastest, the trigger cycles repeats ~12 times a second. (84ms between each cycle) Is that what you mean?
Also, why do you need to know how long it takes for a Devouring One to run somewhere?

Is that English?

84ms is one of the numbers I was lookin for, thanks Kenoli
Also, I need to know how long it takes a Devouring One to run somehwere so I can calculate how to set up a trigger for some really weird bound concept I've come up with.

why not have the trigger execute when the zergling reah the location instead of using waits?

^ very true ^

Because they would die the moment they hit the location, rather than being a pixel before the location when it explodes.

Hyper triggers are not precise enough for it to matter, a devouring one can travel more than 1 pixel in between trigger cycles.

How about instead of trying to figure out how fast it takes for a devouring one to travel accross 1 square, try 10 squares and then divide by 10. Or you could do it for 1 tile too and see if the answers compare.

I think I might try that >>
