All stuff that is to be deleted is beeing added to the MissionCleanup group when they are created. This group is usually cleared after a game has ended. You could manually clean all items from the MissionCleanupGroup and you're done.

I already checked MissionCleanup but don't contains Explosion Data.
When a projectile explode create a particleeffect (like a smoke) if i delete the particle effect without delete the Explosion Data the game crash.

How i can delete all explosion data actives ?


Thanks you in advance

You add them to the cleanup group and make sure the particle effects are deleted in the correct order in the deconstructor, perhaps.

Mmm how i can add ExplosioData to MissionCleanup list ?

I have found this solution :

- I have added in Explosion class a list contains all Explosions (check this resource
http://www.garagegames.com/mg/forums/result.thread.php?qt=43712)

- Next i have created a script funcion like this :

ConsoleFunction(ClearAllExplosions, void, 1,1, "(void)"
"Reloads this emitter")
{
Explosion::removeAllExplosions();
}


- In the game restart script i call :

ClearAllExplosions();
ClearAllEmitters();


This work but i think is not a good solution i can't create a list for all the objects i should clear :(
Is possible to scan from the script this list : gClientSceneGraph ?
