But the question is whether this tower is usuable in a "normal" TD or not ;).
I mean 2 many effects can make the game become confusing :rolleyes:

Please, people. "TowerContestTestMap" isn't really helping me when you submit stuff. :p
Try putting your username in there somewhere, if possible. (See Smith_S9 for an example.)

My tower is complete.
I just need to make a tooltip.

I'll probably do that over the weekend.

Nice eye candy!

Smiths tower looks f*cking awesome. :p

Thanks guys :D.

Fps drops drastically. :D

Yeah, I know :(. The normal state (unlinked) is very processing-intensive. I tried my best to optimize that part of code and make it use less processes, alas it's still laggy. You should've seen it at first :D.

The linked part is graphic-wise laggy. However, that can be easily countered by replacing the ball models with models with less particles, as well as the bottom models.

However, due to the use of the tower, in a real TD, there would never be too many towers of this kind and never in the same spot, so I guess that the tower idea solves by itself the lagginess of it.

Still, if you are doing intensive tests, yeah, it becomes laggy :p.

It hasn't been mentioned, I don't think, but I'm assuming I can update my tower?

Here's my new tower:

Changed:
Allows for easily adding multiple upgrades
Fixed a glitch (or six)

About the tower linking problem afore mentioned, that is actually how it is designed to work. A tower can link to other towers only X times but others can link to it an unlimited amount of times.

My old post still links to my old tower, btw.

Import: Copy the folder "Libraries" and paste it in your map. Then Copy the folder "Lightning Tower" and paste it in your map. Copy the Lightning Tower, Advanced Lightning Tower and Dummy in the Object Editor.

EDIT: Fixed a huge leak and a small bug

Curse Tower
by UndeadDragon​

A pretty simple tower. Deals damage equal to 1/5 of the enemies HP every 3 seconds, for 9 seconds. I could not get a decent screenshot.

Rune Tower

This should be my final entry unless any issues arise. The entire tower has been packed into a single trigger and another trigger has been provided to automatically generate the objects.

EDIT: Fixed one bug (wrong effect on corpse explode)

Takes several triggers, but all work effectively and efficiently.
Each spell is to bounce up to 5 units, each jump dealing full damage.
Towers can change to a target not immune to magic if previously targeted unit is immune to magic.
Allows a choice between 3 spells to be automatically cast, all of which are of equal effect except for the stated difference.
Not entirely flashy as these prove to be fairly cheap towers, therefore giving excess effects would cause visual lag with the possibility of multiple towers.

Yessir, it is.
Curious, because now it works. Perhaps I downloaded it before your edit.

Interesting tower, I must say. :) A couple problems: the tower simply disappears if you build it on the low ground, and does not seem to face the correct direction if built at the exact corners of the outer ring of high ground.

    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
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
