im making a dungeon system for my map so when a player enters a cave he is sent to the dungeon and when he gets to a certain point in the dungeon waves of creeps will spawn. the difficulty depends on how many players are in the cave.

Code:
cave 1 enter
    Events
        Unit - A unit enters cave 1 enter <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions
        Set Cave2_enter = cave 2 enter <gen>
        Unit - Move (Entering unit) instantly to (Center of Cave2_enter)
        Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Entering unit)) to (Center of Cave1Exit) over 0.00 seconds
        Set Players_Entering_Dungeon = (Players_Entering_Dungeon + 1)
        Player Group - Add (Owner of (Entering unit)) to Dungeon_1_player_group
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation (udg_Cave2_enter)

Code:
dungeon 1 start
    Events
        Unit - A unit enters Dungeon 1 Start <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions

Looks like it works.
It also looks a bit messy, though.
The spawning in the second trigger. You should break it up into 2 triggers. One to start and one to spawn.
You could also use a spawn index.

Code:
spawn index
    Events
    Conditions
    Actions
        If (Level Equal to 1) then do (Set spawn_unit = Footman) else do (Do nothing)
        If (Level Equal to 2) then do (Set spawn_unit = Knight) else do (Do nothing)
        If (Level Equal to 3) then do (Set spawn_unit = Gryphon Rider) else do (Do nothing)

So that every time the players beats a wave, the level increases by 1 and the spawn index is run. Then you spawn 'x amount spawn_unit' with your spawn trigger. Ought to make it less messy. :p

Nope, it removes the point in the variable.

Well, no, it doesn't.

Cave2_enter should be a variable of type "point", not "region".
Set it to "center of <region>".
Once done, it works as it should, including the custom script line.

    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
