Hey,

I got a little problem with initializing the struct I have
Here is the script:

JASS:
library PlayerData
    struct Playor extends array //using Playor as player is a var type and Player is a function
        player ThisPlayer
        
        implement PlayerInfo
        
        static method operator [] takes player p returns thistype
            return GetPlayerId(p)
        endmethod
        
        static method operator []= takes player p, thistype this returns nothing
            set Playor[p] = this
        endmethod
        
        static method get takes player p returns thistype
            return Playor[p]
        endmethod
        
        method onCreate takes nothing returns nothing
            // I think I need to input something here to link an array value to a specific player but don&#039;t know what<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />
        endmethod
     endstruct   
endlibrary

So how can I link each array value to a specific player as I also have a few methods in a module linked to this.
So I want to be able to do something like:

JASS:
function a takes nothing returns nothing
local Playor p = Playor[GetTriggerPlayer()]

call p.giveGold(500) //this would give the triggering player 500 gold
endfunction

this is the giveGold method:
JASS:
    method giveGold takes integer gold returns nothing
       call SetPlayerState(.ThisPlayer, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD, GetPlayerState(.ThisPlayer, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD) + gold)
    endmethod


So how would I do this?

Thanks!

Sometimes ago, i did something simple with Players and it work.

JASS:
library PlayerData

    struct PlayerData extends array
        static method operator[] takes player whichPlayer returns thistype
            return GetPlayerId(whichPlayer)
        endmethod

        method operator player takes nothing returns player
            return Player(this)
        endmethod
        
        method giveGold takes integer gold returns nothing
            call SetPlayerState(.player, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD, GetPlayerState(.player, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD) + gold)
        endmethod
        
        boolean displayExperience
        boolean displaySpellDamage
        real goldPerSecond
        
        private static method onInit takes nothing returns nothing
            local integer i = 0
            
            loop
                exitwhen i &gt; 11
                set thistype[Player(i)].displayExperience = true
                set thistype[Player(i)].displaySpellDamage = true
                set thistype[Player(i)].goldPerSecond = 0.
                set i = i + 1
            endloop
        endmethod
    endstruct

endlibrary

in the method operator player you return Player(this) where does the this stand for in this one the player id?

    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
