Hi again, for my 0.16 version i was thinking of adding airplanes... but they... kinda work like overpowered choppers atm. so what i want them to be able to do is, that when they attack they continue moving to a random point after they attack.
Heres the trigger im using: i admit it has alot of leaks and is spamming if then else..:rolleyes:
Code:
Aircraft shooting
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is attacked
    Conditions
        (Mana of (Attacking unit)) Not equal to 0.00
        (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Mini airplane
    Actions
        Set attackerloc = (Position of (Attacking unit))
        Set Attaim = (Position of (Attacked unit))
        Set Attdistance = (Distance between attackerloc and Attaim)
        Set randomnumber = (Random real number between 1.00 and 10.00)
        Set move2 = (Attaim offset by ((Random real number between -1000.00 and 1000.00), (Random real number between -1000.00 and 1000.00)))
        Set Attactualhit = (Attaim offset by ((Random real number between (-0.10 x Attdistance) and (0.10 x Attdistance)), (Random real number between (-0.15 x Attdistance) and (0.15 x Attdistance))))
        Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Move To move2
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                ((Attacked unit) has buff Heavy cover ) Equal to True
            Then - Actions
                Unit - Cause (Attacking unit) to damage circular area after 0.01 seconds of radius (0.02 x (Attdistance / 2.00)) at Attactualhit, dealing ((Random real number between 400.00 and 1000.00) / (Square root(Attdistance))) damage of attack type Pierce and damage type Divine
            Else - Actions
                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        ((Attacked unit) has buff Medium cover ) Equal to True
                    Then - Actions
                        Unit - Cause (Attacking unit) to damage circular area after 0.01 seconds of radius (0.04 x (Attdistance / 2.00)) at Attactualhit, dealing ((Random real number between 400.00 and 1000.00) / (Square root(Attdistance))) damage of attack type Pierce and damage type Divine
                    Else - Actions
                        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                            If - Conditions
                                ((Attacked unit) has buff Light cover ) Equal to True
                            Then - Actions
                                Unit - Cause (Attacking unit) to damage circular area after 0.01 seconds of radius (0.06 x (Attdistance / 2.00)) at Attactualhit, dealing ((Random real number between 400.00 and 1000.00) / (Square root(Attdistance))) damage of attack type Pierce and damage type Divine
                            Else - Actions
                                Unit - Cause (Attacking unit) to damage circular area after 0.01 seconds of radius (0.10 x (Attdistance / 2.00)) at Attactualhit, dealing ((Random real number between 400.00 and 1000.00) / (Square root(Attdistance))) damage of attack type Pierce and damage type Divine
        Special Effect - Create a special effect at Attactualhit using Abilities\Weapons\GyroCopter\GyroCopterImpact.mdl
        Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
        Wait 0.10 seconds
        Unit - Set mana of (Attacking unit) to ((Mana of (Attacking unit)) - randomnumber)
        Wait 7.00 seconds
        Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Attack-Move To (Position of (Attacked unit))
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_attackerloc)
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_Attactualhit)
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_Attaim)

Well if you want missile effects, you'll have to make dummy units to fire.

Otherwise you can just do Damage Target to all units in a range.
Code:
Set UnitGroup = Units at the point in a range
Pick all Units
       Damage target.

If I somehow missed what I'm supposed to answer, I'm busy watching something...lol

Well, what I've thought of is:

Unit is Issued order targeting a point
Unit-type or Unit = Plane
Continue the movement from there.

Or a wait trigger after you order the unit to attack, then continue the movement.

Or you could get some real fun with dummy unit missiles that do the damage. ^_^ (most effective) And the plane continues moving.

i already have a wait trigger, and dummy isnt rly what im looking for ^^
i want this to be as realistic as possible :D if i could i would make each shot special... but i cant which is why i use splash and random damage... anyways, in reality planes fly by and blast whats infront of them.. i want something like that :(.... even though i havnt had any luck so far xD

how a trigger that auto moves the plane forward in the direction its facing. (kinda like sliding on ice) and then you can set the plane's turn speed to be slow. (since it is not moving it self, it should be able to attack. also it needs to face an unit to attack)

Do you (or anyone) have a trigger for that?, im not in a position to be triggering right now :D.........

that and yea i have phoenix fire and using it as turret mount on tanks, and on planes.... but tis still in work

well actually it doesnt fit into triggering atm...

    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
