The First Trigger won't put Letterbox Mode on, and it won't turn Cinematic mode off.
The Second Trigger works just fine, but it doesn't turn Cinematic Mode Off...

The problem is... I can't find what I do wrong :s :banghead:

Solutions I have already tried:
  • I tried putting an game message in between every action
  • I Copied the Trigger into another map
  • I changed most of the actions in teh Trigger
None of this worked, and I am quite desperate...

Anyone knows how to fix this?

Thanks in advance,

Battle[StFh]

1) There's no real point in destroying a trigger. You might aswell use the GUI function to turn it off.
2)
Code: 
        Cinematic - Turn off letterbox mode (show interface) for (All players): fade in over 0.00 seconds
        Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode Off for (All players)

You should use either Cinnematic Mode, or Letterbox Mode. I think that might be the problem.

ur first trigger leaks heaps!

you repeatedly set temppoint without removing it after each use

which would be

call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

Wait, no my error, didnt see the "2" in your next point, no leaks:p

leme try and solve this though

First, coordinates DO NOT leak as they are integers...

(Point(-5310.30, -2394.20))

so using -5310.30, -2394.20 as X,Y coordinates, will work fine

(Convert point to integer I think it is, the same place where you find the "center of rect" or position of unit")

1: letter box mode

Code: 
Cinematic - Turn on letterbox mode [COLOR="Red"](hide interface)[/COLOR] for (All players): fade out over 0.00 seconds

Then you (Btw to see the letter box mode, try using Show Interface, and visa versa)

2: turning it off
Code: 
Cinematic - Turn off letterbox mode [COLOR="Red"](show interface)[/COLOR] for (All players): fade in over 0.00 seconds

I may be wrong, I dont know that much about cinematic, but aren't you "turning on" letterbox mode Hide Interface, then turning off letterbox mode Show Interface? or shouldn't it matter?

try anyway,

You have done the same for the second trigger

You turn on Hide Interface, and you turn off Show Interface, understand?

    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
