  • Hey Kenny, i noticed you used vector in your projectile system so I tried looking through your code and the example given in the vector system map but I can't seem to figure out how you use it to move a unit. Can you please help me out?
    Can you make Projectile's ignore cliff's and height differences and act as a normal 2D projectile that was triggered badly. Basically remove vertical collision from them?

    And is it possible to remove the automatic Z facing from an arcing missile?
    It's sort of moot point because if I was to do it properly, it would be a hashtable wrapper..
    It was when I set attack cooldown to 0.00 and backswings to 0.00, and projectile speed to like 500. I ordered an attack. The missiles would arc, but as soon as I moved the target, they would go back lower. Strange.

    And I mean't like.... rather tahn an arrow for example face the same flat facing on the entire parabola, will it face the direction of the parabola so eventually it will face down or something.
    I think Warcraft when it has an arc, it just goes back to default Z if the target moves a bit. I played around with missiles in Wc3 and that's how they work. Also, if you were to put homing missiles on, you'd have to figure out stuff like if they should be able to be dodged like normal (well, I would, eg Storm Bolt and Blink).

    Hmm.... SetUnitLookAt()? What for? And do missile on parabola straight or face curved? (Dunno how explain?)

    By the way, 2:55 PM and you are on. GAH. HATE SCHOOL. SO HOT.
    >>Making a map is too much work..
    So no mini arena?

    I also hope for Projectile System you handle Zfacing =) So missiles don't look weird when its travelling to something like 900 height.
    JASS:
    call kb.registerOnFinish(trigger)

    The actual was I'd do it now though is like this. Because you end the knockback manually, you don't need the Event... :p
    Mmm I think it'd be the same.
    Problem is array members of a struct require an extra multiplication and stuff, otherwise a struct member + unit index is always faster than a hashtable read (~45% diff between just hashtable read for [handle id, 0] and getunituserdata fyi).

    Hashtables are pretty fast. Lol. I imagine the non-hashtable may be faster here though. Hard to say. ;) (Don't quote me. XD)

General chit-chat
Help Users
  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
