InitGenericPlayerSlots

comment

This function is called in the scope of config to set up the map based on game type. Specifically, this assigns players into teams, unless the game type is GAME_TYPE_USE_MAP_SETTINGS (then map-specific code does this) or unknown (nothing is done in that case).

bug

Leaks handle gType: In Jass you must set local variables that hold agents (or any child type) to null at the end of functions to avoid reference counter leaks.
