Multiple Multiboards ... or something

This is for Go FiSH! 2, so if you've played GF1, it may shed some light on what I'm talking about.

So, what I have here is a need for two multiboards. One, a 2 wide x 1 tall to keep track of my clock and display: [ 4:20 am ][ Tournament ends in one day ] The other is a 4x8 to use as a graphical (using icons) fish finder.

Combining the two into one doesnt work. 2 wide is not long enough for the Finder, and the width of the cells isnt wide enough for the text on the four wide. (Widening them would make the Finder look really crap-tastic.)

Creating one multiboard destroys any already created and shown. Is it supposed to? Then whats the difference between "Show Multiboard" and "Show All Multiboards" if only one displays at a time?

Ideas, suggestions, and solutions welcome.

I've never really used Multiboards, so I have no idea. Maybe you can have a leaderboard up to show the time as well? If not, try using a timer window or something.

Leaderboard only shows whole numbers, and the closest to a whole number I have is "4:20 am", which, obvsiously, isnt a number.

A timer window would show a nice countdown timer with title, but I dont have any timers, and certainly wouldnt want the day-time to be counting down.

I don't use any of them, I just knew they had windows :p

Why don't you just use the actual time of day sun dial thing? Just change the time speed to how you need.

Or you can do something like "hang up" a tournament poster on a fishing supply shack so players have to go and see, or they can buy a copy of the flyer or something :D

The two clocks are already identical, but the fact that its always onscreen makes people pay attention to it. Plus, the text changes and sends little alerts throughout the fishing day.

Clock has that ugly 00:00:00 if there's no timer associated with it.

Whats the difference between "Show Multiboard" and "Show All Multiboards" if only one displays at a time? Is it really impossible to have two multiboards?

Well, you could use multiboard array variables and let the player to navigate between these 2 ...(or more) multiboards.

    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.
