I have this map where I'm making all of the diablo sorceress spells, and they've all worked perfect until I added the fireball spell (very simple spell compared to the other ones). Then my computer randomly freezes while I'm testing it.
Does this ever happen? With the computer freezing, not just closing warcraft and saying fatal error.
I don't know what to do =(

EDIT: put in my trigger. It appears later as well.

Trigger 1 (unit casts ability)
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Fire Ball
Then - Actions
Set L = (Position of (Triggering unit))
Unit - Create 1 Peasant for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at L facing (Facing of (Triggering unit)) degrees
Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
Unit - Add Fire Ball to (Last created unit)
Unit - Set the custom value of (Last created unit) to (700 / 25)
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_L)
Else - Actions


Trigger 2

Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to L
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_L)

If - Conditions
(Level of Fire Ball for (Picked unit)) Equal to 1
Then - Actions
Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the chest of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Weapons\RedDragonBreath\RedDragonMissile.mdl

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Level of Fire Ball for (Damage source)) Equal to 1
Then - Actions

Loop - Actions
Unit - Cause Caster[(Player number of (Owner of (Damage source)))] to damage (Picked unit), dealing (Random real number between (150.00 + (2.00 x (Real(FireBall[(Player number of (Owner of (Damage source)))])))) and (350.00 + (6.00 x (Real(FireBall[(Player number of (Owner of (Damage source)))]))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Fire

Just right click the trigger symbol in the big window with the events and stuff icons and select Copy As Text.
EDIT: It'll only take 20 seconds...

Sry took a lot longer, I cut out all of the other spells that didn't matter.

Also, I forgot to copy in the destruction of unit group G in the second trigger. It's there, I just didn't put it in.

Ok, I added the trigger to the beginning of my first post, with the correct leak prevention.
Hah triple post ftl :(

Please wait while I look over these.

Two notes:

1. They're easier to read when in
Code: 
 tags.

2. ZOMG [I]TRIPLE[/I] POST!?!?!?!

EDIT: 
[CODE]
Unit - Cause Caster[(Player number of (Owner of (Damage source)))] to damage (Picked unit), dealing (Random real number between (150.00 + (2.00 x (Real(FireBall[(Player number of (Owner of (Damage source)))])))) and (350.00 + (6.00 x (Real(FireBall[(Player number of (Owner of (Damage source)))]))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Fire

Infinite loop there, it triggers when a unit is damaged, which will then damage a unit, causing the trigger to run again and again.

I doubt it, caster is the caster of the skill, not the dummy. The dummy does the initial damage, and instantly is destroyed.

Also, it doesn't freeze my computer instantly, it is randomly in some time while I'm playing, about 100 seconds after I cast the skill.
Then I can't even move my mouse >.<


EDIT: Just tested it, and yeah it still freezes computer. Just restarted this thing.

Doesn't seem to be any cure...
Also, an infinite damage loop would create a fatal error. My computer's just blatantly freezing.

The damaging unit was restricted to peasants, but the damager was the hero casting the ability.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
