Third Party Programs

I've been doing some research online, plus some wondering, but what are all the programs out there to be used or that are in developement to help with th use of the Galaxy Editor.

Right now I know of two:

Moonlite Map Studio open beta

Milkyway Editor(Might be old version, can't get to some sites due to filters)

My question is do any of you guys use these and if so what are the pros, cons, or overall opinion?

O and are there anymore that I'm missing?

EDIT:Sigh I misspelled the title of this thread...Fail me suppose to be party* with a "y"

Moonlite, I can't get to work with Andromeda...

Milkyway Editor doesn't allow you to open SC2 maps right now. And hasn't been updated to do so.

My preference right now? Import Manager + Notepad++ using C Highlighting (until someone (or me) decides to make a Galaxy highlighter...)

wait so is that all required because you use andromeda?

seems like a big hassle

ill just stick with making custom script triggers, thank god they implemented them in the retail release eh, ive been managing without 3rd party stuff, too early to bother with it anyway

I don't use Andromeda. ATM, custom script triggers are a pain... They're laggy. Notepad++? Not at all <3

ah ok, they aren't laggy for me at all, only thing that seems to is commenting long lines, bit isn't really a negative in any way since it doesnt stop me from typing or clicking

It depends on what you want to do. If you're gonna make a map based on data editing, choose the next version of MWE.
If you're gonna do a lot of (advanced) scripting, choose the next version of Moonlite, as it has a lot of tools for that.

Unfortunately my opinion might not be valid because I'm the maker of Moonlite.

Thats okay I figured I would get a post from you at some point :) just out of curiosity you say it has 100% Andromeda language Support, but does it still support the "C" language naitive to the galaxy editor itself? Or maybe I'm just not to sure what I'm talking about.

You mean Galaxy? Yes, it has backwards compatibility.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    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
