O.K I have a few problems with my map.

First, I have units spawning from 2 sides of the map. When they spawn I order them to patrol to a line, thus making them attack any enemy they see on the way. But if they kill a unit they stop patrolling.

Second, If the units that are patrolling make it to a certain region they are ordered to attack a gate. I have made sure that only computer owned units will attack the gate, but when a player controlled hero enters the region it attacks the gate anyways
Code: 
attack
    Events
        Unit - A unit enters West side patrol stop <gen>
    Conditions
    Actions
        Player Group - Pick every player in (All players controlled by a Computer player) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Order (Entering unit) to Attack City Gate (Horizontal) 0269 <gen>

Third, Once the units destroy the gate they are ordered to attack another tower. But instead, after they kill the gate they just patrol back and forth and some go run back to the spawn points. I made it so that only units that are controlled by brown (the color of the spawned units) to attack the tower.
Code: 
Attack King
    Events
        Destructible - City Gate (Horizontal) 0269 <gen> dies
    Conditions
    Actions
        Player Group - Pick every player in Player Group - Player 12 (Brown) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Order (Matching) to Attack King Proudmoore 0022 <gen>

Please help if you can, I've been trying to figure out how to fix it for awhile. There are possible more leaks and problems I have, but these are the only ones I can find right now.

In the first and second trigger you Pick A Player, you want to pick a unit. Not a player

One, There is a reason for
Code: 
 tags. Not spoilers.

Second, the patrolling could be the AI, is the Computer Neutral Hostile? And do you still have the AI ran at the start?

And why not do
[code]attack
Events
Unit - A unit enters West side patrol stop <gen>
Conditions-Owner of Triggering Unit is an Ally of Player 12(Brown) equal to true
Actions
Unit - Order (Entering unit) to Attack City Gate (Horizontal) 0269 <gen>

I suppose you could use a periodic trigger that picks every unit with whatever conditions, and if the unit's current order is equal to "none", order it to patrol.

On your first trigger, why do you do a Pick Every Unit, then use Entering Unit? You should probably just use the Order Entering Unit part and leave off the loop.

In your second trigger, Matching Unit should be Picked Unit since you're inside a loop.

Wouldn't it be easier to just make a trigger like this (sorry for freehanding it, don't have WE up):

Code: 
Events - A unit dies
Conditions - Killing unit owned by (whoever owns the units you want to patrol)
Actions - Order Killing Unit to Patrol to (wherever you need them to)

That sounds like it would work to me but I'm a novice at this so I might have left some stuff out.

    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
