So I've been working on this damage per second meter (like the ones found on wow).. and well, i've gotten it to pretty much completely work, bar one major factor. For some reason my maths sucks, and is returning a number that doesn't sound right (It does the opposite of what i want :nuts:) I've done the entire thing in vanilla world editor GUI and in desperate need of help. I've attached the entire map to it and u can find all the meter junk under "DPS Counter" folder.

Um, there are some heroes on there too if u want em =3

P.S: If possible try to keep it in GUI (if not, then I'm not all that picky)
P.P.S: I just got WEU, so you can use that too.

Don't get WEU.. It does a lot more harm than good at times.

Try jass newgen even if you don't know how to use jass

it's a whole lot better than WEU

Not everyone plays WoW, what is DPS Meter

Damage Per Second meter
Measures your damage and the time you have been in combat, then calculates your average damage per second.

You deal 60000 damage in 60 seconds, your dps is 1000
you deal 30000 damage in 30 seconds, then take a 30 second break, then deal another 30000 damage in 30 seconds, your dps is 1000.

You don't register any damage with your triggers. Unit is attacked and Unit starts the effects of an ability are not triggers that register damage. Try using GDD and registering the damage properly, then saving that damage into a real variable. I don't know if you're timer works or not, but this should always show 0 as far as the trigger goes (or perhaps, an inaccurate value).

    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
