- templar 1
- templar 2
- templar 3
- templar 4
- templar 5


(sorry for spamming)

Now all units having the ability to morph to a level up, except the 5th unit ofcourse, that's the max


I created 2 buttons:

1. upgrade unit in special effect
2. upgrade unit in pure damage


question

Is it possible to create the same 2 buttons in all units 1/4?
I don't like to create 50 upgrade buttons

You can link multiple upgrades to a single button but no matter what those upgrades will have the same exact text, so yes and no. If you want individual button text for each upgrade, ie. Marine Level 2 Damage: 5-10 Range: 10 and Marine Level 3 Damage :15-25 Range: 10 Then I don't believe you can use the same button.

It's the point where I doubting about

What if the text of the button ONLY would be:


1. upgrade unit in special effect
2. upgrade unit in pure damage

Would it be possible now?
If yes, then I still getting problems to set the morph-ability to the correct unit I guess?

I would suggest just copy and pasting the buttons for as many as you need as the game uses buttons to determine the actions that take place. So I would still have to say no its not possible the way you want to do it.

Edit: I have used the same button and same ability actually for multiple upgrades before, however in doing so the unit was actually upgraded from a trigger that ran when the unit used its upgrade ability. But using the morph ability and its effects I believe you will need a separate button for each morph ability.

You can have the same buttons but you will need to create separate morph abilities.

I already had that in mind, but how do I prevent from morphing into 24 units while pressing the ability?

(I assume this will happen if I use all morph abilities for the same button)

    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
