I've seen lots of people asking this so I decided to post it in here :D
Code:
Damage Taken 1
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is attacked
    Conditions
    Actions
        Trigger - Add to Damage Taken 2 <gen> the event (Unit - (Triggering unit) Takes damage)

this means that Damage taken 2 has the event: a unit takes damage
and you can refer to that by using triggering unit (not attacked unit :D just a sec :S attacking unit did seem to work so maybe attacked unit too ^^ try it out if you want to :D)

hmm your right didn't notice because it did work in my case :S maybe I should make some kind of variable that makes sure the triggering unit is added to the event only once :S

Code:
Damage detection init 1
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set TempGroupA = (Units in (Playable map area))
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroupA and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Add Damage detection spellbook  to (Picked unit)
                Trigger - Add to All damage <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)
                Trigger - Add to Physical damage <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)
                Trigger - Add to Spell damage <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)


-----------------------------------------------------

Damage detection init 2
    Events
        Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Add (Triggering unit) to TempGroupB
        Unit Group - Remove all units of TempGroupA from TempGroupB
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroupB and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Add Damage detection spellbook  to (Picked unit)
                Trigger - Add to All damage <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)
                Trigger - Add to Physical damage <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)
                Trigger - Add to Spell damage <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)
                Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to TempGroupA
                Unit Group - Remove (Picked unit) from TempGroupB

That's the code I used for my DD initialization. It'll prevent duplicate events from being registered

In JASS, it is easy to add and remove events and conditions.
And this isn't a snippet, it's a hint.

                Unit Group - Remove (Picked unit) from TempGroupB

thanks a lot for that code! b.t.w. 3 different damage types? wherefor and how? And I don't see what the use is of a damage detection spellbook :S can you explain it to me? :p

Well, this isn't JASS, is it? Anyway, JASS damage detection systems are stupidly difficult to use for GUI users. Most of the ones I've seen use various things that make it almost completely unusuable in GUI (I'm sure that one can be made to cater for GUI, but who's gonna do it?) such as structs, creating new triggers internally, and what-not

And this isn't a snippet, it's a hint.

Dictionary.com says otherwise :rolleyes:
a little piece, especially of information
From the looks of it, this is little, and it's a piece of information, so it would qualify as a snippet ^^

    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
