Is there a trigger-able way to match these conditions:

Create 1 (Random level X unit from unit group)

I just can't find a trigger that does this exactly! Maybe I'm looking at the wrong place?

just make another temporary unit group which is the same as the original unit group but then remove all units that's NOT level X! and then use your action for picking a random unit from that variable

eg. you must use variables for the unit groups, if you aren't already

there is no single GUI action that I know of which can do this. actually, what I suggested is a quite short way, will require like three actions for deciding each random unit, and its possible to make it completely leak-free :)

There is no way to use GUI Groups without leaking...

Couldn't you just "Pick every unit in (unit group) matching (conditions)"?

Thanks for the help but,

First, this trigger doesn't exist as I can only add the ''matching condition'' part to ''units in region'' or ''units owned by player''.

Second, I'm using the trigger ''create 1 unit in (random unit of level X from unit group)''. I can't really mix pick every unit with that kind of action.

No, you can't, because enumerating a group leaks, and therefore the entire group will leak. You can part of the leak in GUI, but not the whole thing. The only way to use true leakless groups is by using a custom boolexpr.

Trigger:
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in UnitGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set TempUnitGroup1 = UnitGroup
        • Set TempUnitGroup2 = (Units in (Entire map) matching ((Level of (Matching unit)) Not equal to X))
        • Unit Group - Remove all units of TempUnitGroup2 from TempUnitGroup1


Why are you dissing this idea? Here you got the TempUnitGroup1 with all units in UnitGroup with a specific level (X) exactly as you requested.

I do not really get your point, but if you are talking about getting a unit type out of this, you will still need more actions

Trigger:
  • Set UnitTypeVariable = (Unit-type of (Random unit from TempUnitGroup1))
    • Unit - Create 1 UnitTypeVariable etc

    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
