How to spawn creeps?

In the start of the game there are no creeps but after 1 minute the first set of creeps spawn on random points in the map. Only 10 creeps maximum. Different creeps too like a few murlocs and a few jungle stalkers etc. When one of these creeps die, another one will spawn in a random spot 30 secs later. There will never be more than 10 creeps. Can anyone help me make this Trigger.

I would say that you have to set all your creeps to a variable like
Set your variable array.

Set tempUnit[1] = Forest troll
Set tempUnit[2] = Caverns troll
etc with all your unit.

Code:
Time - Every 30 seconds of gametime

Conditions
None

Actions
For loop Integer A 1 to 10 do (Actions)
Create 1 tempUnit[Random number between 1 and (the number of creep you have set if you've set 18 creep then put 18 etc.] at random point in playble map area...

Well, you'll need two triggers, as far as I can tell:

Event: 1 minute of map time has passed
Conditions:
Actions:
Loop for every integer between 1 - 10
Set Point = Random Point in Playable Map Area
Set Integer = Random number between 1 - 5 (May vary depending on how many creeps)
Do if then else that checks if the number is 1, do this creep, if it's 2 do that creep, etc.
Spawn the creep at point.
Custom Script: call RemoveLocation (Point)

Trigger 2:
Event: A Unit Dies
Conditions: Unit is creep = true
Actions:
Set Point2 = Random point in Playable Map Area
Set Integer2 = Random Number between 1 - 5 (Like above)
(Do everything else like above)

Well, after you choose a random number, you correspond that number with a creep. To do that, you check what number the random number it is, using if then else, and you spawn the creep corresponding to the number.

Example:

Random Number = 1
If
Random Number = 1
Then
Spawn SomeRandomCreep at Point
Else

Random Number = 2
If
Random Number = 2
Then
Spawn SomeRandomCreep2 at Point

Etc.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    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
