two completely different systems really.
handle vars is used to carry over handles from one function to another.
The caster system is big system that allows you to do alot of 'spell making' things alot easer. ie. creating projectiles, damaging units in a line, etc.
The caster system has it's own method of moving handles from one function to another as well (i think.. I dont use it).

Huge, really.
Actually Caster System itself has a completely different purpose.
Kattana's Handle Vars is a system used to "attach" a value to a local handle variable. That's all it does and the method it uses is now obsolete and also not very safe...
The Caster system is a large collection of functions divided into 3 parts - CSCache, CSSafety and the Caster System itself.
CSCache functions are just many (better) ways to do the same thing Kattana's Local Handle Vars do.
CSSafety only contains two functions or so and is used as an extension to CSCache. It's purpose is to avoid the need of nulling timers (which can bug things up) by litteraly recycling them - quite simply all you need to do is use it's two functions (forgot the names) instead of CreateTimer and DestroyTimer.
Caster System's functions are used to enhance spellmaking - they allow you to, for example, do a simple function call and use it to cast a specified spell on a specified unit (it uses dummy units and all...)
Well yeah, CSCache's functions are better to use than Kattana's, but most of them are now obsolete as well...the best thing method is using JassHelper's structs, but that's a completely different story...
Now as for teaching...just read those comments. I found them very informative and helpful. And if there's something specific you're curious about - just ask.

> but why you said it are not safe?
Firstly it is slow (H2I is a very slow function) and secondly it can cause some huge leaks if you forget to replace the gamecache with a global one properly.

And now,
Caster System requires vJass preprocessor (Latest version does)
Handle Variables don't

heres caster system....use jass new gen pack to open caster system and follow the readme
> why you said it are not safe?
According to what I heard any I2H variation can cause problems by corrupting the handle stack. Yeah, that is bad, at the point where that happened everything you have attached would be lost and you most likely attaching will stop working correctly.
But no, I never experienced this myself...

How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net -

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. -

I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff+2

@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.

Varine:
Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though -
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:
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:
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:
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:
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:
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
