That's if you don't want a memory leak. If you want a way to remove memory leaks in GUI, get WEU. Otherwise, just use the Custom Script function and copy that whole line in there. You need a variable named temppoint, by the way.

Set temppoint before Wait 40 Seconds...
and everything else should be ok
but the creep will respawn where it dies, i can give you the system i use that respawns creeps where they are placed in the game before. XD

I have a system, but its in Jass, you just have to change one thing to make them respawn faster or slower, do you want it?

The whole code: (How I would have done it)
Code:
Creep Respawn
    Events
        Unit - A unit owned by Neutral Hostile Dies
    Conditions
    Actions
        Custom script:   local unit temp_unit = GetTriggerUnit()
        Custom script:   local location temp_point = GetUnitLoc(GetTriggerUnit())
        Custom script:   call PolledWait (40.00)
        Custom script:   call CreateNUnitsAtLoc( 1, GetUnitTypeId(temp_unit), Player(PLAYER_NEUTRAL_AGGRESSIVE), temp_point, bj_UNIT_FACING )
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation (temp_point)
        Custom script:   set temp_unit = null
Waits 40 seconds :)

Isn't this your THIRD post on the respawn trigger? I'm not replying to another one of your posts that involves respawning...

here's a simple way to do it instead of using a variable that will make u face problems with MUI....
Code:
Respawn
   Event
       Unit- Unit Dies
   Condition
       Owner of (Triggering unit) equal to Netural Hostile
   Action
       Wait 40 seconds
       Create 1 (Type of(Triggering unit)) at Position of (Triggering unit) Facing Deaful face building

a, You cannot use the "Triggering Unit" function after a wait.
b, That has a memory leak, which is what the variables fix.
c, There is no "Triggering unit," the correct function would be "Dying Unit."

People answered you already, if you want though that a certain location would not spawn creeps go to boolean and find

<<region>> contains (Dying unit) equal to false.

Dying unit and triggering unit are the same in that trigger, and also you can use triggering unit after waits. I do it all the time.

yes ^^

most event units can jsut be used by using triggering unit. the only reason were you would use others is when:
For example:
A unit dies - then you can get the killing unit or the dying unit (which can be the triggering unit)

    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
