Solved! - http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=121893
Sorry for not searching first...The link above solved my problem (needed a wait)

For some reason when I try to remove a dying destructible, my map crashes.

Here are the two triggers.
Trigger:
  • Destructible - Pick every destructible in (Playable map area) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Trigger - Add to Destructible Dies <gen> the event (Destructible - (Picked destructible) dies)

Trigger:
  • Destructible Dies
    • Events
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Destructible - Remove (Dying destructible)

Is there a correct way to achieve this?

There seems to be some kind of delay (Wait) required between the event of the Destructible Dying and the Remove Destructible action. I'm messing around with this at the moment, and after setting a 2 second wait into the trigger, I no longer crashed. I then tested with a 0.10 second wait time, and again the destructible was successfully removed. This seems to me a bizarre logically error, but I'm still pretty green in the logic of JASS...

For example, this trigger will run with no problems.

Basic Function
Trigger:
  • Remove Destructible
    • Events
      • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -remove destructible as An exact match
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Destructible - Remove SPECIFIC DESTRUCTIBLE 5550


However, when the event references the destructible removed in the action, the trigger will cause WC3:TFT to end process immediately, without error message returning to the desktop/prompt. I.e...

Fatal Event Trigger
Trigger:
  • Remove Destructible
    • Events
      • Destructible - SPECIFIC DESTRUCTIBLE 5550 <gen> dies
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Destructible - Remove (Dying destructible)


Adding a Wait will prevent the crash, however I suspect if the wait is too short an older system might still crash...

Remove Dying Destructible (Working)
Trigger:
  • Remove Destructible
    • Events
      • Destructible - SPECIFIC DESTRUCTIBLE 5550 <gen> dies
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Wait 0.10 seconds
      • Destructible - Remove (Dying destructible)


I used the specific Destructible in the the action command, and the event response of 'dying destructible' and both worked fine. I assume using a destructible set in a variable for the event produce the same results, but have not tested it yet.

Inserting a Wait of between 0.10 and 1 second will probably not be very noticeable and seems a good fix, the only downside being that Waits produce memory leaks, although again, I don't exactly understand the impact of these memory leaks, basically I think the rule is the more the merrier, so a single or few 0.10 second waits will probably be insignificant, but if a whole forest of dying destructibles is being removed, for example, there might be issues.

I'm still searching for more information on this issue and a JASS script to accomplish the above triggers, but hopefully this post is of some help.

    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
