        Set DeathNova_Lvl = (Real((Level of DeathNova  for DeathNova_Caster)))
        Set DeathNova_CasterLoc = (Position of DeathNova_Caster)
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Set DeathNova_MoveLoc[(Integer A)] = (DeathNova_CasterLoc offset by 500.00 towards (45.00 x (Real((Integer A)))) degrees)
                Unit - Create 1 DeathBolt Dummy for (Owner of DeathNova_Caster) at DeathNova_CasterLoc facing Default building facing degrees
                Set DeathNova_Bolt[(Integer A)] = (Last created unit)

                Trigger - Add to FireNova Damage <gen> the event (Unit - A unit comes within 200.00 of (Last created unit))
                Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_DeathNova_MoveLoc[bj_forLoopAIndex])
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_DeathNova_CasterLoc)

you could remove the Remove trigger and instead give the units at creating an expiration timer

yea i tried that but there was some problem:
the dummy unit death location was still counted as a location. So, if you cast a DeathNova somewhere else, units near your previous casted location will also take damage and get that buff.

Press PrintScreen when you cast the spell, and then Ctrl + V in Paint. Resize the image, save it as .PNG [(Pronounced Ping). It's lossless, but takes less size than a .BMP file], then upload it to a site (I suggest photobucket.com).

I see no leaks right now, so it should be okay. Also, a description of the spell here would help know what exactly this spell does.

Incredibly simple spell. You could've added extra special effects when the bolts die, which then would damage nearby enemy units. I also suggest that you change the buff of Shadow Strike to something ''darker''.

However, it is a good spell to a hero, so +rep :thup:

    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
