is it posible to load/get the value of a unit currents transerpancy?

so if transperancy = 10% i want to do this
change unit vertix colouring ---> [transperancy] = artemic == [get transperancy + 10%

Well, you could simply use the JASS native for it... It doesn't use %, but actuall values so it's easier to maintain ;)

It looks like this:
[ljass]native SetUnitVertexColor takes unit whichUnit, integer red, integer green, integer blue, integer alpha returns nothing[/ljass]

So, you could do this with a custom script:
Trigger:
  • Vertex Coloring
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit enters Region 1 <gen>
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Custom script: call SetUnitVertexColor(GetTriggerUnit(), 255,255,255,0)
      • Wait 5.00 seconds
      • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 10, do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Wait 0.10 seconds
          • Custom script: call SetUnitVertexColor(GetTriggerUnit(), 255, 255, 255, 10 * bj_forLoopAIndex)

i know thats basicly the same like GUI but u use loop
but icanot use loop since that will glitch with other units

its just 1 trigger based that reduces 10% trans and then removes but if u use loop it gets removed to early and it doesnt look realistic
thats why i want to load the value and not use loop

Yes, custom values can be used in other triggers...
They're attached to the units, not the triggers so can be used anywhere ;)

Or, do you mean you have another trigger which sets the custom value again ? :S

no only the trigger that i am showing

They're attached to the units, not the triggers so can be used anywhere
and they are attached to the units but i dont think it works with pick every unit in group because it only takes the info for only for 1 unit at least it reacts like that
i made a game text of the custom value
i see every 0.2 seconds seeing the numbers going -10 and it doesnt stop while it should show the value of each unit i hope u understand me


excample for 2 units
u see now 90 80 70
but if u got for excample 2 units it it is like this, every 0.2 second u will see
90 90 80 80 70 70


each color is for a unit excample what unit gives

Yeah, but you mean that it only shows as if there were only 1 unit ? :S

So you mean that it's like, non-MUI ? :S

Well, my trigger isn't :p (non-MUI , I mean XD)
Why not use it ? :eek:

My trigger works as such that it'll decrease a units custom value (If they're in a specific unit-group) until it comes to a specific value (In my example, it's 50% transparency), then it starts to make it visible again, until it gets to 100%...

But what is it exactly you want to do with your trigger there ? :S

picking every unit in unit group and for every unit u change the custom value at least that whould be the point with ,pick every unit in unit group,

but instead it only does it for one[i think] while u got multiple units sprawning somethimes per half a second


Edit* the fade is just for changing transperancy from 100 to 0 when its 0 it removes the unit just a naturaly fade
[idea] if the trans realy doesnt work i make it windwalk perhaps for fading time
but i whould liek to know if this is posible learning things is often more importand then making a map on the hardest way if u understand what i mean

    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
