Minigame Phage Wars

Imagine a war between different kinds of bacteria (that's plural).

Imagine that each of these kinds of bacteria has a few characteristics.

Imagine that these bacteria wants to rule the whole map.

Imagine the whole map contains about 18 bacteria.

Imagine containing Phage, which defines the type and owner of the bacteria, and the more Phage, the more strength and resistance.

Imagine using Phage, some crap that contains the characteristics of that bacteria, and use it to invade other bacteria and replace that bacterium's Phages with the attacker's Phages, doing some kind of mind control.

Imagine that a bacterium can contain about 150 Phages. It will take 151 enemy Phages to take over the bacterium. It can attack a bacterium with 75, half of the bacterium's Phages, on an enemy bacterium. It wins and takes control of the enemy bacterium, if it lessens enemy bacterium's number of Phages to 0 and have at least an extra friendly Phage to the enemy bacterium.

So think of it like this:

Number of Enemy Phages = 60
Number of Your Phages = 80

Attacker = You

Your Maximum Amount of Phages You Can Send = 40 (That's half)

60 - 40 = 20 Enemy Phages left.

Although all your attacking Phages have died, you've battered the bacterium. And it can only send 10 Phages on you. And remember that you still have half of the Phages (40), so you're on the winning side.

Remember that you can take over more than one bacterium, like 4 bacteria or the whole map's bacteria. Imagine that any of your bacteria doesn't have the capability to take over an enemy bacterium.

Like this.

Your 1st Bacterium = 10
Your 2nd Bacterium = 30
Your 3rd Bacterium = 20
Your 4th Bacterium = 30

Enemy's Bacterium = 40

None of them are a match to the enemy. If you don't move fast it will just regenerate more Phages (Faster rate than yours because it has that amount of Phages). You can always select all four to attack it at the same time.

Do your math by halfing all of those bacteria and adding them up and compare with the enemy bacterium and see if you can win.

You can also order the 3 other Phages and send them to your other Phage to increase its strength and regeneration.

So that's about it... For now...

Some characteristics I've been considering...

Capacity = How many Phages can fit one bacterium
Regeneration = How much Phages are made in one bacterium
Length = How far you can send your Phages to a bacterium
Strength = How easy one Phage can kill another Phage (Still thinking how to do this)

Any suggestions?

Screenies soon.

Also, if you are a modeler, please help

    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
