hi i need a bit help with some problems i have with trying to trigger smth.
Because i have SOOO much questions i wrote all down to make just one threath. Plz take time and try to help me :p. I prefer GUI.


1. How can i make units belong to an player but be uncontrollable for that player? (player gets bounty and vision but cant give orders)

2. How can i make units unattackable for allies? (Turn off friendly fire that you cant attack an allied hero even if u force the attack with "a")

3. How can i make negative auras?

4. How can i make custom orb effects?

5. How can i make an additional auto attack for an unit that attacks 1 target permanently? (Phoenix Fire changes target after it hit an enemy.)

6. How can i make my dummies not to be seen on the minimap?

7. How can i trigger a "first target it hits" spell? (e.g an arrow that stuns the first enemy it hits)

I really hope you can help me :D

Code: 
A unit Is attacked

Trigering Unit is an ally of Attacking unit == false

Unit - Order Attacking Unit to Stop

3. Preferences - Allow Negative Reals. Then create an aura ( sample: Endurance Aura) with -0.50 Movement speed increase.

4. Explain? Try Orb of Lightning.

5. Phoenix Fire will work. Just set the furation to 0.01

6. Abilities - Locust

7. Try this. Its in GUI

You could make another player own it, but retain it's real color, and have 100% tax rate for that player. (Bounty effect won't show when a unit dies.)

For example: Player 1 (Red) owns five footmen. Player 2 (Blue) is Player 1's "dummy player". -You give ownership of the five footmen to Player 2 (Blue), but retain their color. (They will now look Red, but be owned and controlled by Blue.)
Then set the tax rate for Blue towards Red to 100%. (Then Red will automatically recieve all the gold Blue earns.)
Also set the alliance between Red and Blue to 'Allied with Shared Vision'.

Not perfect, but I think it's the closest you'll come. (You need one player for each "real" player, though..)

Another way of doing it would be to add Locust to the units. = You can't select the unit.


EDIT:
>6. Abilities - Locust
-Then the units won't be selectable, which he might not wont.

6.
Try setting "Hide on Minimap - True", in the Object Editor (F6) for each unit that you want to hide.

thank you for the quick answers :p it really helped me out.

I have 1 problem left with the custom orb effects. When i take the skill of slow orb or lightning orb in the object editor then i can enter 3 different % chances. The weird thing is even when i set all 3 chances to 100% nothing happens.
How does this work with the custom orbs?

In ability got:

Data - Chance To Hit Heroes
Data - Chance To Hit Summons
Data - Chance To Hit Units
Click to expand...

this is chance to ability cast in Heroes, Summons and Units (of course, duh!)

Data - Effect Ability
Click to expand...

Is the ability what will cast if the x% hit right

If you use other orb, maybe it will be replaced and don't will work. Orb Effect Don't Stack

ok i understand now how it should work with the custom orb effect. But i set all 3 x % chances to 100% and it wont work a single time. If i set only the chance for units or heroes to 100% it wont work for units and heroes either. I want to make an orb skill for a tank hero that decreases the attack damage of the attacked unit. I chose "Cripple" for the effect ability. Is there anything i could have forgotten???

Locust ability is one answer. Course, nothing can attack the unit either if its a multiplayer map and they need to be able to defend themselves from the unit.

Another way is to do clear the selection for the owning player any time he picks the unit. Like

Trigger:
  • Events
    • Player Selects a Unit
    • Conditions
    • Selected unit = Unit Type you want uncontrollable
    • Actions
    • Clear selection for Player


If your unit is just supposed to wander around killing things, a final way is to use the stop order trigger someone else posted. This will of course make your unit stop dead in it's tracks. You could use a wait and then order it to attack to a random point in the region, or you could set its acquisition range really high so it locks onto the nearest unit and hunts them down.

    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
