Help: My triggers seem to be conflicting.

Hi everyone, I've created some triggers to spawn zealots: when a probe reaches a location, it should repeatedly spawn zealots nearby. When there's only one trigger, there are no issues. However, when multiple triggers are active, most only spawn units occasionally, with only one trigger working correctly. What should I do?
Edit: I used Hyper Triggers but it didn't help.

It would help if you posted what these triggers do, but my guess is on wait blocks.
tl;dr multiple waits running at the same time means only the first trigger runs normally. Prevent it by using death counters to do your timings.

I think you could use a different location for every single spawn trigger and in order to avoid them showing an error message for not having space to create the units add as a condition that the location in question is empty, in case you want to use the same location multiple times to spawn units.

Thank you. I believe I encountered wait blocks. I'll try using death counters in the future

Zoan -- of course it isn't full understanding. You could ask "is the mechanism by which this counterexample blows up the ONLY mechanism possible for an initial configuration to blow up?"

Zoan -- ppl do it all the time in PDEs

Zoan -- Heinermann
Heinermann shouted: it also didn't solve that problem but hey as long as the investors are pleased
Constructing a counterexample is answering the question: "Is Navier Stokes well posed?" in the negative

NudeRaider -- I only heard about it, didn't any news article, so what did it do then?

Heinermann -- it also didn't solve that problem but hey as long as the investors are pleased

NudeRaider -- I have no idea tbh. All I know no human was ever able to solve it, but there's at least a few that beat portal ;)

Zoan -- Navier Stokes is not that esoteric I thought
