Collision Problem

I have a problem in which the creeps spawn by a loop and i need the collision of the units off. I have set their collision to 0 but they still run into one another. If I add a trigger to the second one with the collision off command it lags the game horribly. Thats why its at the end after all the spawning. I have the trigger to turn off the collision when the loop is done, but it needs to be before so they don't collide while the loop is still running. I tried to use the following trigger to turn off collision on the units before they are spawned but there was no success.

I think i need to be able to specify a range for the array for this to work,but i'm not sure how or even if it will work.
Trigger:
  • Collision
    • Events
      • Map initialization
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set TempGroup = (Units of type creepArray[(LVL)])
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do (Unit - Turn collision for (Triggering unit) Off)


I cannot add the collision off command inside the loop here or it lags the game bad until all the creeps are spawned.
Trigger:
  • Spawn Creeps
    • Events
      • Time - Counter expires
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Countdown Timer - Destroy (Last created timer window)
      • For each (Integer A) from 1 to creepSpawnCount[LVL], do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Wait 0.00 seconds
          • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            • If - Conditions
              • (Player 6 (Orange) slot status) Equal to Is playing
            • Then - Actions
              • Set OrangeSpawn = (Center of Orange Spawn <gen>)
              • Unit - Create 1 creepArray[LVL] for Player 12 (Brown) at OrangeSpawn facing 0.00 degrees
              • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_OrangeSpawn)
            • Else - Actions

Well my question basically is is there a way to turn off collision for units at map initialization without the units being spawned? That would solve this problem.

theres a way without triggers:
Ghost(visible) for visible units or Ghost for invisibility
they are abilities, just add ghost(visible) to the unit and they wont have collision size

in ur first trigger u should use Picked Unit not Triggering unit, cos u dont have anything that triggers the unit
And where is that Count timer. Why r u using wait action with 0.00 seconds, u dont need that.

    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
