JASS:
call CAS_SA('h00J',u,cx,cy,tx,ty,0.03,33,MaxDist(i),Damage(i),false,0,null,0,0,null)
    call CAS_SA('h00K',u,cx,cy,tx,ty,0.03,33,MaxDist(i),Damage(i),true,'A00A',"flamestrike",i,250.00,"Abilities\\Spells\\Human\\MarkOfChaos\\MarkOfChaosTarget.mdl")


CAS_SA creates an arrow that goes straight, but i want the 2nd function to happen about .03 seconds after the first one, right now, they're instant so they overlap each other, whats the best way to do this

With so low periods, you have to use a timer.

If you're using vJass, you can do it easily by using a struct:
JASS:
struct Data
    timer t = CreateTimer()

    //add your stuff here
endstruct

globals
    Data array Data_ar
    integer counter = 0
endglobals

function SomeFunction_handler takes nothing returns nothing
    local timer t = GetExpiredTimer()
    local integer loopA = 0
    
    loop
        exitwhen loopA >= counter
        if Data_ar[loopA].t = t then
        
            //launch the second arrow
            
            call PauseTimer(t)
            call DestroyTimer(t)
            call Data_ar[counter].destroy()
            set counter = counter - 1
        endif
        set loopA = loopA + 1
    endloop
endfunction

function SomeFunction takes nothing returns boolean
    local Data dat = Data.create()

    //set some data for the struct
    
    //launch first arrow
    
    call TimerStart(dat.t, 0.03, false, function SomeFunction_handler)
    
    set Data_ar[counter] = dat
    set counter = counter + 1
endfunction

If you don't know vJass, you're not getting anywhere with that code.

With TT:
JASS:
struct Data
    //add your stuff here
endstruct

function SomeFunction_handler takes nothing returns nothing
    local Data dat = TT_GetData()
    
    //launch second arrow
    
    call dat.destroy()

    return true
endfunction

function SomeFunction takes nothing returns nothing
    local Data dat = Data.create()

    //set some data for the struct
    
    //launch first arrow
    
    call TT_Start(function SomeFunction_handler, dat)
endfunction


Correct me if I am wrong. I don't have wc3/newgen or anything.

Create a Timer that runs just once.
Simple, efficient and proberbly acurate =)
Problem is, you will proberbly need a Attachment System.
Also, if you are doing stuff like this, I recomend you use something like TT by Cohadar, since you will have to create + destroy the Timer >.<

The Data_ar is array of Data structs, and counter is counting how many "things" (can't figure out a word for it now) there are in the Data_ar. In the handler function we are looping each through the Data_ar.

hmm

JASS:
function SomeFunction_handler takes nothing returns nothing
    local timer t = GetExpiredTimer()
    local integer loopA = 0
    
    loop
        exitwhen loopA &gt;= counter
        if Data_ar[loopA].t = t then
        
            //launch the second arrow
            
            call PauseTimer(t)
            call DestroyTimer(t)
            call Data_ar[counter].destroy()
            set counter = counter - 1
        endif
        set loopA = loopA + 1
    endloop
endfunction


but i cant launch the arrow in a separate function unless i load the struct right?

I used the struct array and counter method in that. Oh, you should also store the i variable it seems.

Syntax error is caused by single =. It should be ==. Sorry, I've been working with other languages.

Also, I have to say I am sorry for giving you the wrong solution, this should fix it:

JASS:
private function Shockwave takes nothing returns nothing
    local timer t = GetExpiredTimer()
    local integer l = 0
    
    loop
        exitwhen l &gt;= c
        if Array[l].t == t then
            call CAS_SA(&#039;h00K&#039;,Array[l].u,Array[l].cx,Array[l].cy,Array[l].tx,Array[l].ty,0.03,33,MaxDist(Array[l].i),Damage(Array[l].i),true,&#039;A00A&#039;,&quot;flamestrike&quot;,Array[l].i,250.00,&quot;Abilities\\Spells\\Human\\MarkOfChaos\\MarkOfChaosTarget.mdl&quot;)
            set Array[c] = Array[l]
            set c = c - 1
            set l = l - 1
            call d.destroy()
            return
        endif
        set l = l + 1
    endloop

    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
