I have a dummy ability based on flamestrike to cast it.
It makes 4 dummy mortars appear at desired location on model and fire to ground target.

After I cast the spell on a unit, tree, or anything other than the ground it lags horribly and continues to lag until the units you targeted are dead.

It still lags. I noticed that the flamestrike buff is attached to all targeted units with the special effect of flames that never goes away. AND I even cleared out the buffs field!

Clearing out the buff fields result in default useage. Mean that removing the Flamestrike buff, it will still be the Flamestrike buff.

Replace it with an other buff that you can accept showing instead, like with a tool tip: "This unit just got smoked!" :p

It's fixed! I made a custom buff based off of flame strike buff and nulled out the art model fields, then assigned it to my dummy flamestrike ability.

I think it was stacking more and more flame models on top of each other forever. Why? I don't know. As long as it works I'm happy.:thup:

    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
