Go ahead. Then I'll move it back to the T&R Forum. (And possibly approve it)

Floating text...feature

That would be cool... maybe you could intergrate floating text that appears over selected units when the messege is typed? (and follows the unit)
If you are willing to add that to your system (it would be PERFECT for my map then (instead of having 2 systems!)) I have the GUI mixed with jass setup that makes the floating text follow a specific unit...I plan on updating it to make it modular so I dont have to hardcode the units into it and just make it so what ever unit I have selected at the time will have the text apear above it...what if you dont have any unit selected? or a building? hmmm... don't show anything or just pick the highest unit belonging to that player?

Just food for though if you want to add it... I'll try to set it all up in GUI/jass and then you can make it all jass and efficient.l

Actually that feature is already in that code. If you see one of the first lines of code involves a player unit or whatever. You need to set that variable to the player's unit, then use "!u lolchat" to display "lolchat" over your unit (requires a minimal amount of JASS knowledge).

I should get around to updating this when I reinstall WC3, today or tomorrow maybe.

jass equivalent

what is the jass equivalent of something to the effect of 'get_units_selected_by_player_x ? thay way I can use that instead of hard coding units. Wont work if units are spawned....

K. I have found a Very featured use for your code.

Setup:
Map with built in name spoofer (yes it works)
Save code system that uses playernames for verification.

Problem:
Anyone can use your code if they spoof your name.

Fix
Modify save code to use a password provided by user instead of player name

Problem:
Anyone can see what you return the the savecode function as your password

Fix:
Disable builtin in-game chat and:
Use your Talkative system to replace in-game chat and enable hiding of said password with ... lets say "-pass " prefix.

let me know what you think?

    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
