Something is really Bothering me... Why the hell is the GUI version taking less space than the JASS one ?? O,o Anyways, very decent Spell. ( This looks even smoother than the one in DotA )

You can cast it only once, the second time will remove the first cast (tryed with 25 bounces and no cooldown)

Which variable does need to be changed to allow a 2nd cast ? (or is it possible)

Pretty insane spell I <3 it

JASS version's map has more pre-placed units I suppose.

>You can cast it only once, the second time will remove the first cast
>Which variable does need to be changed to allow a 2nd cast ?

All of them.
Though, the GUI version's not MUI or MPI, for the record.

You'd need to convert all variables to have an array size of 1, and use "Player No. of Trig. Unit" as the index value.
That would make the spell MPI.

Or, you could always use Uareanoob's GUI-MUI system.

Thanks for the comments guys :)

>when units are to close together it looks ugly

I agree; it all happens too fast when the targets are "close" together.
Though that can be modified through the detection range.

However I don't know if changing it from 100 to some # around 5-10 would do much..

>Maybe better that the one in DotA

In my opinion, it is.
It looks better anyway.

Though DotA's version goes for a much more gamplay-related style.
For example the frost ball damages the current target as soon as it reaches
the first point in which it was picked at, so regardless of how far it had travelled
since then wouldn't matter, which makes things easier for players, but makes the spell look weird.

Are we waiting for something?

I can't understand the JASS code.
That means it must be good.

And the GUI code is perfectly fine.

Not to mention that the demo map could be submitted without any spell and it would get approved. :p

Approved by me.

Good Job tinki3

I made also some chain spells like chain slow, chain cyclone, chain transmute (my favorite :D) and chain bloodlust
But I can't make them in jass that uses local variables because I can't write in jass...

can some1 help me to make the variables into local?

    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
