Is there any way you can remove the Damage Reduction number that shows when your hover your mouse over a units armor?

It looks really ugly on my map since i use the armor tooltip as a quickguide on how to play may map..

In the armor tooltip it looks like this:

Tiles: 0+(some number) <- this is the armor, but i use it for something else.

Mission:
0% <- this is what i want to remove

This is your Color Converter.
bla bla bla....

i want to remove that number + the %

i tried putting |c00000000 on the Damage Reduction field in the game interface but it didnt work :(

anyone know how to remove it?

Thats hardcoded, cant imagine anything you could do about it. Well maybe hack the game engine iteself.

yea.. i thought that much, but i thought there would be some way to hide it like you can hide the 100% in the upkeep thingy..

hmm, just an idea:

is there any way i can calculate the damage reduction?

the way i want to do this, if i cant remove/hide the damage reduction, is:

in my map there are "tiles", these tiles are destructibles in different colors(one for each player).
at first there are only white tiles, which then will be converted into your color as you "move" your unit(you steer the unit with the arrowkeys)

and i have a multiboard with the players name and how many percent of all the tiles that are his color, and i use the armor to display the current amount of tiles you have.. so i was thinking if you could somehow change the damage reduction to display how many percent of all the tiles are in you color?
though, since its hardcoded the only way to do it is through the gameplay constants.. so i dont expect it to work. but since i use the armor as the number of tiles in your color there maybe could be a way to do that?

tell me if you dont understand and i will try to explain better:)

Let
m = the number in the field [Combat - Armor Damage Reduction Multiplier] (0.06 by default)
a = unit's armor
r = damage reduction in decimals (from 0 to 1)​


Then
r = ma / (1+ma)​

As the equation's not linear, I don't think it's possible to linearly map a to r :(

hmm, well i didnt think it was possible, and the number of tiles is not the same every game, when i only have 1 player in the game its 256 tiles, but it increases for every player..

    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
