I need help with some triggers of mine, it's works one time but not the second time. I don't know why this is happening

"The abillity makes the caster to become insanely hungery, increasing his movment speed by 25. All organic units that come in contact with the caster is devoured, kept inside the body of the caster. Decoured units take 40/60/80 damage each second and heals the caster the same amount. For each unit he devours he get +10 movment speed. At the end of the ability the devoured units are released infront of the caster, dealing 6/8/10 x number of units devoured."

Thats how the spell should work, here are the triggers

btw I know that my spell may leak, but i will fix it later on. And I knwo the triggers are abit long too read trough but i gave them here anyway,

Trigger:
  • Devour
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Devour
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • MUI Less than 1000
        • Then - Actions
          • Set MUI = (MUI + 1)
        • Else - Actions
          • Set MUI = 1
      • Set DeV_Caster[MUI] = (Casting unit)
      • Set DeV_Duration[MUI] = 0.00

maybe some of your array variables are size 1, then it works only the first time
try this; change the condition below for set MUI = 1
Trigger:
  • If - Conditions
    • MUI Less than 1000
    • Then - Actions
      • Set MUI = (MUI + 1)
    • Else - Actions
      • Set MUI = 1

i mean, your triggers use the MUI variable plus 1 each time they run. first time MUI= 1, second time MUI=2
so, if your spell works only once, then some of your variables are unable to handle another number other than 1

    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
