Only thing I can think of is maybe adding a short wait-time before turning off the trigger..
Maybe turn down the magnitude of the camera shakes...

No, the wait is not a need, but it just looks better if the effect appears a bit after the key is picked up.

EDIT:

Actually, i think the problem might be that the trigger turns off before it gets to create all the items.

if you turn a trigger off it wont just stop, it will run to its end but not run again. what you mean is probably "skip remaining actions".
furthermore why not "create item for hero" instead of creating items+giving last created items to your unit. will save space AND remove most of the leaks in your trigger.

and at least is your unit a hero? if not are you sure you can give him tomes? when they are used immatelately this might malfunction with units which aint got stats.

It's a unit with an inventory that doesn't allow using items. So I guess the Tomes just gets picked up and placed in the inventory.

no it wont. tomes are either used or placed back on the ground, you have got to change the tome item to put it into the inventory.

why wont it work? this trigger is running each time a unit of the type of your boss is dying. means if your boss dies it will drop the items.
if you just want a single boss-type unit to drop them save that unit in a variable and change the condition

Either that or I could just turn of the trigger.

I'm not thinking clear right now. I should go to bed.

    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
