Ok, Im caching my heros from map 1 all the way through various maps. Here's the problem, I can cache just fine... but I want to skip map 3 as it is pure cinematics and load on map 4. But the problem is the cache commands are not loading.... any ideas on how to skip a map and cache the next one after?

Caching is independant of maps. It is a property of the profile. So if you store them in map 2 you should be able to load them in map 4.

I think the problem is I dont know what the best Game Cache action is. [Last created] didn't work, not even with a condition pointing at the desired characters (two triggers, one cache trigger for each.)

Last Created only refers to a gamecache you have just (in the same map) created/opened with Create Game Cache. So yes, you open gamecaches that you have saved in another game/map/whatever with Create Game Cache.

Ok, here's what my problem is... its when I go to save the heroes in map 2, I think the Game Cache [Last created unit] dosnt work, because neither hero loaded in map 4. Im asking, what would you use if in map 2 you wanted to save 2 heroes and load them both in map 4? ^_^

Check if you open the gamecache with the same name and use the same name under which you store/load in both maps.
If you are not sure if you are storing the right unit in the cache then check if you have the right unit handle in map 2 through non gamecache means.
