I will probably allow posts for about 11 more hours. Don't panic. I plan to announce when there is about 1 hour remaining. Maybe both 2 and 1 hours. I won't just say, "No more!" out of the blue on you. ;)

Grading is shared with these guys :p

Gonna do my tower ready for midnight. So I can fix all triggers, and also check if all comments have correct information.

JASS:
local real minus = GetUnitState(GetKillingUnit(), UNIT_STATE_MAX_LIFE)-GetUnitState(GetKillingUnit(), UNIT_STATE_LIFE)
local integer healed = GetRandomInt(0, R2I(minus)) //heal random integer inside the lost hp of the tower
call SetUnitState(GetKillingUnit(), UNIT_STATE_LIFE, (GetUnitState(GetKillingUnit(), UNIT_STATE_LIFE)+healed))


This is the Healing trigger...As you can see...It is random integer between 0 and the lost hp of the tower....so just dont say it as like i am making it to be unbalance...

Got back home in time to finish this.

Na-Lopper:
It has 2 S shaped sodium blades, directly opposing each other, they spin around the middle of the tower and their direction can be changed at any time, damage, blade length, and degrees per interval are controllable via globals and interval can easily be changed in the triggers. The tower also spawns player controlled water elementals which can react with the sodium blades and explode, AoE, damage, and spawns per minute (1-60 I know works, over 60 may work, I didn't calc that math, just a warning) are in globals.

Also, water elementals that are destroyed by the blades leave behind an NaOH, and other water elementals that come within 200 range of it will become Alkaline elementals, capable of damaging enemies with immolat-alkaline burns. NaOH and both elementals have a set lifetime, in a global, alkaline damage and NaOH range is in the object editor.

And lastly, the tower is powered by a warp core that is automatically spawned in front of the tower when it is completed, the warp core can be ejected over a great range to deal <damage> over an <AoE>, however, this stops the spawning of elementals, and causes the blades to disintegrate. This is the bit I'm most unhappy with, I'm not really good with JASS, so I didn't have time to make this MUI, instead, I stripped out all the waits, it doesn't look quite as good, but the only MUI danger is a temporary point variable nearly unique to that trigger (its also in an example map spawn trigger, but thats not part of the tower), it is used to place 2 special effects, I needed that wait so the other 2 sfxes didn't appear until the infernal sfx had ended.

Import instructions are in the Documentation triggers, they are fairly simple, 7 triggers, 9 custom units (no modified ones), and 4 custom abilities (once again, no modified ones).

Good luck all. If you play the demo map, tell me how far you get, I never made it past wave 3.

Linking parks midnight album, really, really disappointed me, put a ascar on my heart ^.^, By the way, Magentix, your tower looks quite challenging to create, what made you think of it ^.^?

I wanted to make a TD more challenging, where you'd have to put every single bit of fire-power you had into anti-air, anti-siege, etc.

So I came up with an idea which allows for a sort of "mirror image" type of tower, only way more controllable what you want mirrored and for how long.

Ok, everyone. This is the 1 Hour mark. Have your towers in by then, or they will not be graded.

K. So did anyone code theirs in JASS? If not I guess I am not needed to grade... Unless I need to help grade on other concepts. :p

No one has so far that I've seen. If they do, I'll send you a PM.

First Round grades are posted. Magentix and 0zaru are in the lead.

Three more categories have been graded. See the first page for the results.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    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
