what critical error? when you save the map you get the error or is it the one were wc3 just closes and say its encountered a critical error

its probably either an incorrect reference in some of his more recent triggers or a negative value that is specified in the object data

and depending on how much terrraining you did, you could select them all then cut them, and paste them in a new map :)

Backup your map, select a tree, go to Edit -> Select All Special, and press Delete.
Then test the map, and see if it crashes. That way, we'll be able to determine whether or not it's the trees.

lol! how could trees cause a error? it has to be a trigger or maybe a import. what do you have on the map?
click scenario
map description

copy the text on the bottom and past it
it should says things like
- Map size is greater than 192 x 192 (or equivalent)
- Variable array sizes have been specified (Trigger Editor)

and so on.

ill doudble check later cant right now on a dif comp but i used the standard map sizes they listed (biggest one for my rpg using the 256 by 256) only triggers i started are some camera ones i was exploring around with but those were saved the exact same on the working version...

no imports or objects either

other than that its just "expansion only doodads are being used"

If you have no triggers anyway, copy paste everything to a new map and start over. (Both terrain and doodads, and units.)

Test the map after you copy each thing over to see what is crashing it.

If it never crashes, save over the original and off you go.

And in case you're that 0.1% that hasn't been told... Back up your work.

figured it out error caused by my only trigger lol..

***
* cam command
o Events
+ Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
+ Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
o Conditions
+ (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 5)) Equal to (Matched chat string)
o Action
+ Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Distance to target to (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 6, 10)))) over 0.00 seconds
***
anyone know what is wrong with it i want it to be so u type -cam (number) and it sets the cam distance that far away

Isnt Matched for conditions?

Or is it only Matching...

But either way, I don't think Matched chat string has anything to do in there.

    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
