;) I am a Helper from TH, so I will answer anything that I can.
If you run into me a lot, that's just a coincidence because I'm online currently and bored so I looked for questions.

EDIT: If you've finished the Escape and submitted it, I'd like to play it and see what my 'student' :)P) has made.

Anyway, back to topic.
Click on the name of the trigger (not Events, Conditions, nor Actions) But the name of the trigger above the Events, then Copy As Text, and Paste it here. Don't forget
Code:
 tags.

In short, sliding will move an unit to degree of (current unit facing degree) by 5 pixel or so every 0.05 or so second. this will make the unit slide (like fly, move forward) in a set speed (edit the duration and pixel to fastened or slow the speed)

and what's the bug? Maybe the bug is the units moved are not only the ones on ice right or wrong?

OMG I did tell you to use
Code:
 tags.
Edit your post and use [Code] tags.
For now, I think your trigger is OK, however I must be missing something.
Anyway, fix your codes first.

EDIT:
R@i_no_Wyrm maybe right. Try using AND in the IF conditions.

Is this right?

yes but if he edits his post and does so, than the if statements will be alligned correctly and it would be easyer to read.

The correct codes should have indents, that's why Bloodreaver should do it because when he copied the trigger, they should all have indents, to help see better.

OFF-TOPIC:
Let Wyrm finish this, I haven't finished my homerwork so gotta go offline.

easier to read...?

For your q :
... maybe the bug has something to do with grouping the units. Maybe the WE hasn't finished checking the units yet and the next periodic event must be ran. Why don't try to get it for 1 seconds just in case of chacking bugs?

To create a special effect if I want it when the unit slides

Hmm anyone have a different slide thingy I can use?

Code:
Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to (temp_point offset by 7.70 towards (Facing of (Picked unit)) degrees), facing (Facing of (Picked unit)) degree
This leaks replace with:
Code:
Set temp_point2 = (temp_point offset by 7.70 towards (Facing of (Picked unit)) degrees)
Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to (temp_point2), facing (Facing of (Picked unit)) degree
Custom Script: call RemoveLocation (udg_temp_point2)

This trigger can also be cleared up alot, if it's an escape then you normally have 1 unit per player, the escaper, so just add them to a unit group and use this instead of the playergroup - unit group stuff.

To add to N2o), you can add all units to a Unit Group, so you don't have to pick and pick again all the time. If the unit is there from the beginning, you can set them 0.02 sec after the Initialization (it doesn't have to be 0.02, but I use 'Elapsed Time is 0.02')

But if the unit can be changed (sold and buy another one) Then re-set the sold unit to the Group.

So far, I think your trigger is okay. Have you used the correct terrain tiles?

       Pick every unit in UG and do (Actions)
        Loop - Actions

           If (All Conditions are True) then (Actions) else (Actions)
             If - Conditions

             Else - Actions
               Do nothing
           Custom Script: RemoveLocation(udg_L)

Phew.... hope this time it works.
If you can understand this, then you should be able to make the death trigger.

  • Varine Varine:
    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
