Thanks dude. :thup:
I am going to write any further questions if I need questions answered in this thread, stay in touch. If I don't have any further questions, you (Exide) won't hear from me. Going to check out what you wrote after I've gotten some sleep.

Exide, I am lost again. 2 issues:
Trigger:
  • Unit - Create 1 Murloc chieftain for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building

1: How do I create my Murloc chieftain? I have to choose a unit, and since my murloc chieftain isn't in my map, how do I select him??
2: I have only looked at your triggers for loading/storing/restoring a hero. Was I supposed to do any other things? For example, do I need to put the maps in the campaign editor?
3: How did you get the "Hero-level to (Load Your_Labe_Here of Your_Category_Here? When I press the action Hero - Set Level, it says: "Set (Triggering unit) Hero-level to 2, Hide level-up graphics.

Trigger:
  • Hero - Set (Last created unit) Hero-level to (Load Your_Label_Here of Your_Category_Here from (Last created game cache)), Hide level-up graphics

1.
Choose Unit -> Create Units Facing Angle
the click on the second underlined text saying 'Footman'.
-Now you get a new window full of icons of units of the Human race.
Click on 'Value: Melee' and change it to 'Custom'.
If you made the hero based of a unit from another race, you need to change race as well.

2.
Yes, your maps must be in the campagin, like this:

3.
Hero - Set Level + Game Cache - Load Integer Value
First choose 'Hero - Set Level', then click on the second underlined text saying '2', and choose 'Function: Game Cache - Load Integer Value'.
-Also make sure that you're doing this for the correct unit. (Not (Triggering Unit), and not (Last created unit) - but (Last Restored Unit).)

Thanks Exide. :thup:
However... Now something else is bothering me. My first map used to be able to set next map to my second map, but for some reason, it doesn't work anymore, if I play map 1, map 2 won't load when I've completed map 1. I haven't changed anything, except for triggers on map 2. The hero won't load on map 2 either. :(

I am uploading my 2 maps so you can see for yourself. Tell me why Set next map doesn't work, and any other things I have done wrong.

I'm starting to think that you didn't read my Campaign Tutorial at all..
You need a campagin file (.w3n).

I took your maps (made a few changes) and put them in a campaign file. (File attached.)

Open it by opening World Editor. Press F7. Load the file. Then right click on the name of the maps and choose 'Edit Map'.
Read my Tutorial for more information:

Yeah, because at first I thought I only had to do the move-hero triggers.
I'll get to work on the campaign once I have some spare time, I have a rough week ahead of me.
But, were the triggers I did correct, at least? :)

Nope. :p
Some were correct. Some had tiny mistakes. Some had lousy names like 'Untitled Trigger 00*'. Some weren't needed.
-I changed some of your triggers in the campaign file I uploaded, you can compare them to your old maps and see the changes for yourself.

    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
