you mean how to get a struct from a member?
you could have a forward list of the allocated instances and itterate through them checking if each is it, if it reaches the beginning of the list, thats a nope, if not its not in that struct
but what im having an issue understanding is why you want to get which struct something is in, as any struct can contain the same data as another
Note: be prepared to be jumped by the dirac troll as i posted here and he has my sent...

the idea is a system that create struct by unit, add the unit to a unit group, and in another function, pick every unit in the group and take members of the struct that have the unit as a member

u mean get an instance from a unit or an actual struct
ie:
instance 40 - MyStruct(40).member
Struct - MyStruct

if thats what you want to do use a unit indexing system, i recommend AIDS or UnitIndexer
basically when a unit enters the map it assigns a number to that unit (saved in custom value of the unit)
and saves UnitVar[assigned integer] = entering unit
then you can use that as the instance of struct and both of those systems allow this via an ~onCreate method
ie:
JASS:
private method AIDS_onCreate takes nothing returns nothing
    set this.someMember = someval
    set this.someOtherMember = someotherval
endmethod

//! runtextmacro AIDS()

//OR ---------> (for UnitIndexer)

private method index takes nothing returns nothing
    set this.someMember = someval
    set this.someOtherMember = someotherval
endmethod

implement UnitIndexStruct


These make it so that when a unit is created you can save default info on them, which is nice...
also allows you to save values for each unique unit in a simple struct
the implement and textmacro are to make them an AIDS/UnitIndexer struct (instanced with each unit)

    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.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    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
