Assuming that you aren't one of what the player names suggest, look at the triggers and see if you haven't added any triggers when you were drunk or something that could do that.

Try posting your triggers... It would help alot when trying to help you :)

A lot is two words, and that happens because your name being used is WorldEdit. Change it and that won't happen :)

There's nothing that should be able to do that in WC3. The only way for a player's name to change is: Use a namespoofer, or through triggers.

The only way for a game to end is: You get DC'ed by a kicking program, or through triggers. (Or you quit.)

So here's what's going on.

1. Either you have a trigger that ends the game/changes the players names.

2. Everyone you play with has a name spoofer, change their names to mapstealer, and then leaves the game. Then you quit.

I'd have to go with 2. No some people add in a trigger where if someone has the name WorldEdit do all of that. And spoofs can't change their name in game, only in a lobby.

Really? (About the namespoofing thing) I coulda sworn this guy stole one of my save codes by spoofing my name and then loading. (The outcome: 2 heroes exactly the same.....really odd game that was.)


Anyways, my post above was sarcastic. Obviously, a j j bones, you have a trigger that changes player's names/defeats them. I suggest going over every trigger, looking for the one that changes stuff. (Using the object manager is useful here.)

I knew it was sarcastic, when I said I'd go with 2 I was being sarcastic too :p
If you have that anti-map hacker worldedit trigger just remove it anyways, it's useless, because they can just host it online to test anyways..

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    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

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