I'm making a new program called LordOglog's JASS Death Region Creator which makes JASS code for killing units when they enter a region, basicly this pogram saves you having to create lots of different events if you have lots of different regions. There are a few other programs like this one allready so I would like to know what people would like to make this one different, I am going to put in exempt players e.g. the staff/wandering things in a maze map, along with special and lightning efects.
The BETA version of the program is attached (advanced mode doesn't really work yet but normal does.
Thanks to SFilip for his help finding the format function for me.

It would be cool if you could also have it generate code for telling people to move from region to region, like for a TD

Doing it this way can be rather unstable...
You see the editor is limited with a thing called op limit. If you call too many functions the thread crashes and the execution stops. This means that out of 1000 regions for example the editor might read only 546 (random number in this case, you can't really know when the thread might crash) depending on the number of events and Init parts of other triggers. The worst part is that thread crashing doesn't produce errors or anything so...

A solution can be call ExecuteFunc
Code: 
function Trig_Death_Regions_Conditions takes nothing returns boolean
return true
end function

function Trig_Death_Regions_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
call KillUnit( GetTriggerUnit() )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Death_Regions takes nothing returns nothing
set gg_trg_Death_Regions = CreateTrigger(  )

call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_001)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_002)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_003)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_004)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_005)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_006)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_007)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_008)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_009)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_Death_Regions, gg_rct_Region_010)

call TriggerAddCondition( gg_trg_Death_Regions, Condition( function Trig_Death_Regions_Conditions ) )
call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Death_Regions, function Trig_Death_Regions_Actions )
endfunction
That's the code you currently generate...should be like this to avoid the thread crash:
Code: 
function Trig_Death_Regions_Conditions takes nothing returns boolean
return true
endfunction

function Trig_Death_Regions_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
call KillUnit( GetTriggerUnit() )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function Events_Death_Regions takes nothing returns nothing
local region r = CreateRegion()
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_001)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_002)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_003)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_004)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_005)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_006)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_007)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_008)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_009)
call RegionAddRect(r, gg_rct_Region_010)
call TriggerRegisterEnterRegion(gg_trg_Death_Regions, r, null)
set r = null
endfunction

function InitTrig_Death_Regions takes nothing returns nothing
set gg_trg_Death_Regions = CreateTrigger(  )

call TriggerAddCondition( gg_trg_Death_Regions, Condition( function Trig_Death_Regions_Conditions ) )
call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Death_Regions, function Trig_Death_Regions_Actions )

call ExecuteFunc("Events_Death_Regions")

endfunction

Also notice that you have a space between "end" and "function" in the conditions part which will cause a syntax error.

Oh and you might consider making this program OpenSource as some people might learn some VB from it. Your choice though.

Ok thanks for your tips I don't know why the space is there? But I can't change that ATM because my PC has locked me out of my prog lol, it should be fine if I reboot. I'll change it to how you said. I didn't think about making it open source but i'll wait unil i've finished all of it before doing 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
