The Settlers of Catan​

Hi, this is my first project and i would realy want to see it in game. I have been inspiered by all the Risk games that i have played, i that is why i see potensial in this particular project :)


The Map
I want to make it as much like the board game as possible, and if you haven played it, here is the start setup :) (working on this trigger, but need help)
u place the pieces (the larger six edge pieces in the pic below) upside down and place alphabetic carboard pieces on top (not in the pic, but theese have the alphabet on one side and numbers representing dice numbers on the other) and when you have place all (wich will then be allmost randomly placed because of the alphabetic numbers and the upside down recource pieces) you turn everything around and you have the game board for this round

Here is a view of the board game. currently i need help from some guy that is pretty good on textures, so that i can get the random in my setup trigger to spawn this types of recource textures in stead of the original wc3 ones. The textures would be:
Wood
Stone
Sheep
Clay
Wheath (or some sort of farmland thing :p)
Desert (unbuildable, the one with the black piece in the pic)

here is a pic of my map :) (not sure if i am going to use two islands)

thx for viewing, now i would really like input on how to do the game system (income, fighting, area takeover and such :))

If annyone whats to help me with the project, you are welcome to ask, i probably need help :)
+rep on productive comment :)

I haven't really played risk before but I'm guessing those cards are some kind of events?
If so, maybe you could make some random stuff occur periodically or when you go somewhere.
Maybe you could make the weather change, like snow, rain, sunshine, thunderstorm etc.
As to events that trigger by some other thingy, maybe when you step in a desert tile, you have a chance to sink into the sand and get immobilised temporarily etc.

Finally, I was wonder what the "pieces" were, are they villagers or something? And also, are there many pieces or just one?

The cards are resources, you roll a die and if you have a village adjacent to a resource field that matches the value you role, you get that resource.

Normaly i would puke at those ugly Blizzard Cliffs, but seeing as raise wouldnt work in this situation, i dont see any other way. Now i think that you should add some varity to you areas, it seems to me that it very dull... Or if you want it make even more random you could make it so that at the start of the game the areas get choosen randomly, and the terrain changes acordingly. And also you should explain more about this game, ive never seen this game before nor played it, so please explain a bit more.

Id be interested in helping. Either with the code it self, or concepts of how to code some of it. I am a GUI Person though.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    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
