Is there any way to skip remaining actions in a different trigger?

I got a trigger that will repeadetly spawn units and send them to attack another unit, but if the attacked unit dies, I want to stop the trigger from running by skipping remaining actions, but I cant do it from within the trigger. So I need to use another trigger with the correct events and conditions, and skip the remaining actions from in there.
Is this possible, and if it is, then how?

I don't know if there's a nicer way, but in lack of other suggestions you could always have a global boolean variable and an if-check in the spawn trigger that skips remaining actions if the boolean is true.

Then to make that trigger skip remaining actions, set the boolean to true.

hmm, well the problem is that the way it works is that it got a wait action that waits untill the amount of units in a unit group is 0, and then goes on.
And if my unit dies before the wait is over, it should skip the remaining actions.

Dont you know of any custom script that might be able to solve this? :rolleyes:

event: any unit dies
condition: (Triggering unit) == *any method of determining the unit. e.g. unit type
action: Trigger - Stop all instances of (your trigger)
I haven't tried but this will kill the trigger once the unit in question dies. Problem with this is if you have multiple instances of the trigger it might(not sure) stop it all.

I just came up with another method - I'll simply put a boolean varaible that will be set to true if the game is lost, and then have a if then else action that runs a skip remaining actions, if the boolean is set to true.

EDIT: I didnt know of that Stop all instances of TRIGGER. It was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Ghin :)

Ghin? ow haha now I see he said the same (didn't copied!)
well, it's not that I do not appriciate your help, but your post was posted 2.5 hours later than his, and they practically said the same. So to me it counts as if Ghin helped me, but thanks for trying though ;)

    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
