so i got this trigger:
Trigger:
  • Red Colonies
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Finishes research
    • Conditions
      • (Researched tech-type) Equal to Advanced Militari Tech
      • (Owner of (Researching unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)
    • Actions
      • Dialog - Clear Colonies
      • Dialog - Change the title of Colonies to Select youre starti...
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Quebec
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Florida
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Cuba
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Honduras
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled South America
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled New Orleans
      • Set SouthAmerica = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Set Florida = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Set Cuba = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Set Honduras = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Set NewOrleans = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Set Quebec = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Show Colonies for Player 1 (Red)

this contienue for like 6 players, now what i want to do is that if one of the posibilities already have been choicen like if Honduras have been choiced, than it will be removed so that the next player cant choice it

Why don't you make it triggering player instead of making one for each player? :O

You do realise your trigger will bug? You have to name the dialog button IMMEDIATELY after creating it if you're using "Last Created Dialog Button". It should be like this:
Trigger:
  • * Red Colonies
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Finishes research
    • Conditions
      • (Researched tech-type) Equal to Advanced Militari Tech
      • (Owner of (Researching unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)
    • Actions
      • Dialog - Clear Colonies
      • Dialog - Change the title of Colonies to Select youre starti...
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Quebec
      • Set Quebec = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Florida
      • Set Florida = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Cuba
      • Set Cuba = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Honduras
      • Set Honduras = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled South America
      • Set SouthAmerica = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled New Orleans
      • Set NewOrleans = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Show Colonies for Player 1 (Red)

Now, it is simple if they aren't showing at the same time for every player, simply change the main trigger to:
Trigger:
  • * Red Colonies
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Finishes research
    • Conditions

    • Actions

      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • QuebecBool Equal to True

          • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Honduras
          • Set Honduras = (Last created dialog Button)
        • Else - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)

          • Set NewOrleans = (Last created dialog Button)
        • Else - Actions
        • Dialog - Show Colonies for Player 1 (Red)

Trigger:
  • ColoniesClick
    • Events
      • Dialog - A dialog button is clicked for Colonies
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • If - Conditions
        • (Clicked dialog button) Equal to Quebec

        • Set QuebecBool = True

no no... he is suggesting you to keep on creating the If/Then/Else's for each of the buttons... at the same trigger.

And :)

And as far as i can see, hes dividing the buttoms up so they arent showing on same time? what i want is a big screen with all 6 colonies, for the first player than the buttom he takes cant be taken by the otherone(it needs to get removed) and so on, until the last player teching can only choice the last buttom.

QuebecBool is a variable of the "Boolean" type which you will have to create yourself, just like all the other variables (CubaBool, FloridaBool, HondurasBool, SouthAmericaBool, NewOrleansBool). What my trigger does is it checks if the Boolean value of these variables are "Equal To" "False", which is the default value of these variables. For each variable that is equal to false, it will add the state to the Dialog menu. So, if "CubaBool" is equal to "False", it will add "Cuba" as an option to the dialog. Now, when Player 1 picks, for example, "Cuba", it sets "CubaBool" to "True". Then Player 2 finishes the research, and the trigger checks the same Booleans. But now, it checks and "CubaBool" has been set to "True" (because Player 1 has picked "Cuba") and it will not add "Cuba" to the dialog

i think the in the first trigger all the condition must be false
like
Trigger:
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • QuebecBool Equal to False
    • Then - Actions
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Colonies labelled Quebec
      • Set Quebec = (Last created dialog Button)
    • Else - Actions



and btw you must do this for all of your players and you must change the
(Owner of (Researching unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)

    @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.

    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do

    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

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
