How do you create a custom aura?

I was thinking of making an aura called Upgrade Aura and it would increase defense and attack speed. I know Devotion Aura can create the defense part and Endurance Aura can create the attack speed part, but I have no idea how to merge the two.

All I know is that it would require a trigger, but I'm not very good with them and I have no idea where to begin. Some guidance would be quite appreciated.

Help?

Pick every units within 1000 of (unit) and do set armor of picked unit to armor + something? If thats even a trigger :p. Or maybe there is an attack speed part :D.

I was thinking of just giving my Hero the spell based off of Endurance Aura and somehow also adding the effect of Devotion Aura to it; basically merging the two. The problem is I have no idea where to even begin.

Ummm could you create a dummy that was permanent with locust and give it devotion aura and just make it follow the hero around?

have the spell based off of the aura you want and when it is learned create a dummy unit with other aura for that lvl and every .1 sec of time more to position of hero. Then when lvled agian remove that unit and put in the next lvl of the aura.

Alternate - have a unit with the aura always follow the hero and lvl up the aura ability woth a trigger when you level up your ability.

why not just have a "dummy aura" on your hero unit visible like just the icon, (base it off crit stirke, set everything to 0, change icon whatever), then put devotion aura and endurance aura in a spell book, take off the art for one of them and change the art of the other so that it looks like whatever you want it look like with only "one aura", then use this trigger:

Code:
events
 a unit learns a skill

conditions
 learned skill equal to "your custom aura/ability"

events
 if
   integer comparison - level of "your custom aura/ability" equal to 1

 then
   unit - increment level of devotion aura for triggering unit
   unit - increment level of endurance aura for triggering unit

 else
   unit - add "your custom spell book [containing both auras]" to triggering unit
   player - disable "your custom spell book [containing both auras]" for owner of triggering unit

dont have WE open but thats how the trigger should look like wording isnt exact though but im pretty sure its close enough for you to figure it out :)

    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

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
