I got custom building with 2 abilities: (road + 2x building abilities)
road_building_problem_screen_1.png

First icon allow me to build next road, second allow me to build settlement (smth like base). ( 2 custom abilities -> second created by duplicate first + rename + change building type.)
My problem starts when I try build first one:
road_building_problem_screen_3.png

then before building graphic look like settlement:
road_building_problem_screen_2.png

After build it look normal (like in first screen)
---
When I try build settlement (by second icon) then building graphic (/before and after) looks normal.

----------------------------------------------

What to do to have that gaphic normal? Without problems

(notes: when I change order of abilities then settlement looks like road(before build) and road look all fine. | adding random ability between that 2 and that don't help)

thx!

ps: and sorry if somewhere on forum was that problem!

you cannot give 2 times the same ability (with same order ID) to one and the same unit.
sorry mate this is impossible.

how can I change ID?
or maybe I create another building but with same graphic model path?


ps: or maybe you have any idea: What to do to have same efect but without that problem?

You can only change the order string, but yeah... try that :D
The field is Text - Order String - Use/Turn On

Change this to some spell that does about the same :D
Like if I would use storm bolt for my spell, and then change the order string, i'd change it to firebolt, as they are almost the same :D

anyways I fixed problem but no fully. I created another ability that create symbol. I setted created symbol into road. Cost manna to 0. All works fine except that now I haven't any graphic when i clicking road but only a changed skin of mouse to circle. It's anyways better but it's not I want. (second bad from it, is that symbol life time is max 1h, it's almost no problem but ... what if map will be play longer :/ )

    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
