To remove the "100%", add '|cff0F1B28' at the end of your message. In my case it would be after 'Map's Coolness" Thanks to Evote for this find :D
So that there is a Line skip between "Made by esb" and "Contact me at" just CTRL + Enter. (¶ = CTRL + Enter)

I have been trying to remove the 100% in my map as well to no avail. You can get it to say 0% by always incurring a 100% tax rate even on no upkeep but there is still something there when you don't want it there. It's too bad you can't dynamically change it because then you could use it for something in gameplay like percentage of quests completed so it didn't look odd floating out in the middle of nowhere.

Yeah, although i think it might be editable in the MPQ. Dunno, didn't really bothered.

BUT: You can change Gold Income Rate to a certain number, and that could be Version Completition
So it could be Version Completition: 50% :p but it's really hard to tell how far away you are from a final version...
thats the only use i see people could use of that %.

I hate messing with MPQ's.. it's almost too much effort, especially with how powerful the basic editor is, heh.

Um... Do you mean the icons? Yeah, in Game Interface > "Icon - Gold/Lumber/Food"

And yeah, "100%" won't hurt anyone, come to think of it, you could add "Coolness: 100%" lol :p

Edit: Fixed

    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
