I've been continuously working on Helper Bound and..... for some reason, my triggers keep bugging :( It seems turning off a trigger that registers unit death and then killing a unit while that trigger is off then turning that trigger back on after killing said unit does not work. It still fires that trigger...
Maybe the event is to much slow, like here.
If that's true then it's incredibly lame.

So... Got a baneling to not show its hp bar, be invisble, have no sound on death, and hit one unit... Then, got it to spawn when a unit was within melee range of my dark templar, after the attack went down, with its own attack speed internally.

Alert system is still in progress... But my custom attack system is down, finally.

Not much yet. I've only been playing aorund with it for about 4 hours. So far, I've managed to get a unit to attack (in direction you're aiming with trigger controlled projectiles) when left clicking, allowed the user to aim up, down, left and right via Arrow Keys (would like to make this based on mouse movement..how do I go about that?).

The best part of it though is that I set the whole thing up for an endless supply of weapons. I have bullet speed variables, damage, ammo type, weapon type, weapon damage, explosive vs non-explosive (in progress), and semi vs bolt vs auto fire. When I'm done this will be one hell of an efficient third person shooter baseline. I've also made it MUI and it enables each player to control a squad instead of one unit. I actually have a goal in mind...I started the concept on a project not long ago that this will fit into

But I have a question: anything we make with the beta editor can still be worked on once the official release gets installed, right?

My latest Efforts involved Creating an SCV that could jump cliffs,Attack air and ground targets with different weapons. It's melee weapon deals 100 bonus dmg to Biological,Light,Ground units.It also has life and shield steel and a Seeker missile clone.The SCV has Shields.

Also i modified a Hellion to have a similar weapon to the auto turret and gave it the ability to move while shooting.

For the Move While Shooting, is that a simple check box in the unit editor?

not really it's slightly complicated than that.

Also Some abilities are simple to copy onto other units. While Other abilities will give you hell.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    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
