hey
i need help, i wanna do an ability that turns u invisibile but u lose mana each sec. It should be like the nightelf ability from the demonlord "cloak of flames". U can turn it on and off etc.
Make a dummy ability based on cloak of flames or mana shield. Detect when the caster turns it on, and add permanent invisibility to the cast and turn on a periodic trigger that drains X mana each second, checking to make sure the unit has the buff. When the unit does not have the buff, turn off the trigger and remove permanent invisibility.
I believe you would use "Unit - A unit is issued an order with no target"
And then in your conditions, check if the issued order is equal to "manashieldon" or something like that. You should be able to find the code for the Mana Shield ability in the Object Editor.
1. How would you detect when the unit as the buff or not? Use a periodic? In my opinion that is more complicated than simply detecting when the ability is turned on/off using order strings.
2. Buff's have 1-2 second delay before removing from a unit when the ability is turned off. Sometimes those 1-2 seconds are important. For example, the ability she is trying to create would drain more mana than necessary if you used checking for buff.
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.
You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
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
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
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.
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
