Creep agro

Hi I made this trigger to replicate DotA's creep agro system (or they didn't triggered it), here's what the system does, if a unit attacks a hero (or even just issued an order to attack a hero) allied units within 500 range of the attacked hero will be ordered to attack the attacking unit, then a 2 second non periodic timer starts, that when expired, it orders back the picked unit to its last order (I used last order system) so that it will go back to its lane.

I'm not sure if DotA triggered it or not. I already tried changing the value of Stats - Priorities on heroes, and still didn't have the same effect.

My trigger has no compile error, but it does crash warcraft after some hero attacks.
JASS:
scope CreepAgro initializer init

private struct data
    group e
endstruct

private function tick takes nothing returns nothing
    local timer t = GetExpiredTimer()
    local data d = GetTimerData(t)
    local unit u
    loop
        set u = FirstOfGroup(d.e)
        exitwhen u == null
        call IssueSecondLastOrder(u)
        call GroupRemoveUnit(d.e,u)
    endloop
    call ReleaseGroup(d.e)
    call ReleaseTimer(t)
    call d.destroy()
    set t = null
    set u = null
endfunction

private function con takes nothing returns boolean
    return IsUnitType(GetOrderTargetUnit(),UNIT_TYPE_HERO) and not IsUnitIllusion(GetOrderTargetUnit()) and GetIssuedOrderId() == 851983
endfunction

private function filter takes nothing returns boolean
    return IsUnitAlly(GetFilterUnit(),GetOwningPlayer(GetOrderTargetUnit())) and not IsUnitType(GetFilterUnit(),UNIT_TYPE_HERO)
endfunction

private function act takes nothing returns nothing
    local timer t = NewTimer()
    local data d = data.create()
    local unit trg = GetTriggerUnit()
    local group g = NewGroup()
    local unit u
    set d.e = NewGroup()
    call GroupEnumUnitsInRange(g,GetUnitX(trg),GetUnitY(trg),500.0,null)
    loop
        set u = FirstOfGroup(g)
        exitwhen u == null
        call IssueTargetOrder(u,"attack",trg)
        call GroupAddUnit(d.e,u)
        call GroupRemoveUnit(g,u)
    endloop
    call ReleaseGroup(g)
    call TimerStart(t,2.0,false,function tick)
    call SetTimerData(t,d)
    set g = null
    set trg = null
    set t = null
    set u = null
endfunction

really need the trigger in my map, thanks

Infinite loop?

It runs off a issued target order and you give a unit another order, try disabling the trigger and then enabling it back again when it's done.

ok I changed some conditions to avoid infinite loops, but the main problem for now is, I cant reorder the creeps with its second last order, or their last order, they just sit there and stand by after the 2 second timer is out

JASS:
scope CreepAgro initializer init

private struct data
    group e

private function tick takes nothing returns nothing
    local timer t = GetExpiredTimer()
    local data d = GetTimerData(t)
    local unit u
    loop
        set u = FirstOfGroup(d.e)
        exitwhen u == null
        call IssueLastOrder(u)
        call GroupRemoveUnit(d.e,u)
    endloop
    call ReleaseGroup(d.e)
    call ReleaseTimer(t)
    call d.destroy()
    set t = null
    set u = null
endfunction

private function con takes nothing returns boolean
    return IsUnitType(GetOrderTargetUnit(),UNIT_TYPE_HERO) and IsUnitType(GetTriggerUnit(),UNIT_TYPE_HERO) and not IsUnitIllusion(GetOrderTargetUnit()) and GetIssuedOrderId() == 851983

(I used last order system)

Kingking learn to read, he already said he uses it and from his function name it's pretty obvious.
JASS:
call TimerStart(t,2.0,false,function tick)
    call SetTimerData(t,d)

Shouldn't it be the other way round?

    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
