Hey all, i could do with some advise for my map, http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=144100

i wasnt sure which was the correct forum area for asking questions so feel free to move it if i got it wrong :p

Basically the system i want im not sure if its possible, it would be similar to the city of drugs map system.
I want the player to be able to unlock new characters to play with the more games hes played etc.

like if a player has played 5 games he unlocks the "mechanic" who is a harder to play class with its own benefits, not suitable for players who havent played before and so on.
everytime the player plays the map to the end ( the round must last say 15mins) and saves the code he gets given at the end, it saves how many games he has accumilated, and each time he loads his code at the start of the map it tells the player how many games hes played and how many more he needs to unlock the next class.

then the system checks what number of games he has played and shows him the heros he can choose.

any advice on a system like this? is it possible? and if so is there anyone who could help me at all? its important to me because it effectively stops a newb player feeding the other team because they dont know how to play the game.

think about the Satyr in island defense. how many times he would die feeding the titan so much that the game would end alot faster then anyone wanted

ill give it a ago tomorrow and tell you if it works :)
also im having a problem with this code that i got from here
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...a-152465/?prev=search=meat%20hook&d=list&r=20

In the bit

Trigger:

i want it not to be able to target buildings as right now you can pull a building with the chain, aswell as a unit.
i tried adding a if condition of "if unit is a building = false" under it but that made it ignore the building and go through it to capture the human, i want it to bounce off like its hit a wall.
because thats the strategy humans will need to use as defense, walling there open spots etc :p

    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
