"Wait for condition" issue

Example trigger:
GUI using a global variable:

Code:
Events: -
Condtions: -
Actions:
For each (Integer B) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
    Loop - Actions
        Set i = (i + 1)
Wait until (i Equal to 5), checking every 0.20 seconds

Now I want to make the same thing in JASS using a local variable to make trigger MUI. So I convert the trigger to custom text and this si what I get:

Code:
function Trig_GUI_Func002001 takes nothing returns boolean
    return ( [B]udg_i[/B] == 5 )
endfunction

function Trig_GUI_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    set bj_forLoopBIndex = 1
    set bj_forLoopBIndexEnd = 5
    loop
        exitwhen bj_forLoopBIndex > bj_forLoopBIndexEnd
        set [B]udg_i [/B] = ( [B]udg_i[/B] + 1 )
        set bj_forLoopBIndex = bj_forLoopBIndex + 1
    endloop
    loop
        exitwhen ( Trig_GUI_Func002001() )
        call TriggerSleepAction(RMaxBJ(bj_WAIT_FOR_COND_MIN_INTERVAL, 0.20))
    endloop
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_GUI takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_GUI = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_GUI, function Trig_GUI_Actions )
endfunction

Now as I've understood local variables can only be used within ONE single function, so how would I make wait for conditon work if I don't want to use a global variable?
Sorry I don't think I can explain any better than this :/

I don't see the point to that. The functions doesn't consider actions outside of the loop while it's running. So your "Wait for" will only even start after the loop is done, when the condition is already met. Useless or not, you don't need game cache for this.

Code:
function Trig_GUI_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
[COLOR=Navy]    local integer index = 1
    local integer i[/COLOR]
    loop
[COLOR=Navy]        exitwhen index > 5
      set i  =  i + 1[/COLOR]
        set index = index + 1
    endloop
    loop
        [COLOR=Navy]exitwhen i==5[/COLOR]
        call TriggerSleepAction(RMaxBJ(bj_WAIT_FOR_COND_MIN_INTERVAL, 0.20))
    endloop
endfunction

//======================================================================  =====
function InitTrig_GUI takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_GUI = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_GUI, function Trig_GUI_Actions )
endfunction

yeaur trigger makes no sense, as corvus said.....

u may be looking for something more like this
PHP:
local integer i=1

loop
    exitwhen i>5
    call TriggerSleepAction(.2)
    set i = i + 1
endloop

Ah yes, for some reason I thought for loops skipped wait actions, lol.

only player/unit loops can get stopped by a wait.

    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
