    posted a message on arrays in an event doesn't work

    Damn...

    If you use triggers instead of pure galaxy you can't fix this...

    the array is empty on startup
    initTriggers() is called while the array is still empty
    the event is now registered to null aka any unit
    initialising the array in a map init trigger comes way to late

    edit: I was wrong, you can add the event later after the init in a custom script section with the array and it works

    I just noticed, even using array variables with this event still counts as any unit and triggers every time if the variable is empty on map init. initializing it in a map init trigger doesn't help

    or if I don't use a specific, existing unit from the start in the event, I may also use "any unit".

    If you don't find the map in the Arcard System already you have downloaded, just upload it as private with the editor. And host your published map and invite your friend.

    but if you are getting dots (...) the label width is too small

    The European Southern Observatory released a great shot of a tiny bit of space a month ago:
    1% of the sky, 84 million stars and counting

    Some OT:

    @b0ne123: Go I do not believe that we humans evolved from primates.

    We did not evolve from the currently living apes, we just had a common ancestor. We survived because we got smart enough, current apes are not that smart but pretty strong in addition. The ancestor was most likely less strong and less smart.
    Humans are Apes are Monkeys are Primates clarification

    @Gradius12: Go Herp derp?. Nah that never happened. No proof, no evidence, defies logic and reason too.

    Proof for what? What never happened?
    Something is scientifically "true" if there is so much evidence it would be perverse to deny it.
    I think evolution is pretty logic, genes mutate from generation to generation and some are able to survive, other die. Who can survive, stays.
    Something darkens the sun causing the big naked dinosaurs to die on the colder earth. Small furry mammals survive.

    You can even try evolution yourself and observe it with a microscope. Just get a bacterium (pond, your mouth etc) and put it onto a glass. Add some sugar and let it split/clone itself a few billion times. Cloning adds very little genetic variation, but after enough generations, you could add some antibiotic like Penicillin. 99.99% of the bacteria will die. The other surviving 0.01%, very few, will have some genetic mutation from poison, radiation, unclean splitting rendering them immune although they are clones of the first bacterium like all the dying. Let a survivor clone again a few billion times, add another antibiotic and again 99.99% of them will die. The remaining bacteria are now already evolved to be immune to two known antibacterial substances due to changing environment. The ancestor cell wouldn't have survived neither of the two.
    Mating instead of cloning would have added a much greater genetic variation and clearer result. But I don't know if there are any mating organisms with a very short reproduction cycle like simple bacteria.
    Sadly this is nothing I made up, this is a very serious and often times deadly problem in hospitals. They grow super immune bacteria and viruses there. You can't kill them with any known antibacterial medicine only something like heat or alcohol to destroy the proteins of the cells. But burning ill people doesn't heal them.

    Most likely everything living evolved from some simple cells like this but there is still the question where this first live came from. Didn't find anything convincing about that yet. Might have been Gods infusion and planned evolution, alien (meteorite) contamination or lightning striking the boiling ocean full of atoms. I don't know for sure but I would really like to know. Another unanswered thing is why/who/how the fuck caused the big bang.

    @Hookah604: Go Thats all fake. I also found a bone in my backyard yesterday, Time to find others and combine and create obscure puzzles made to fit.
    My addition to the science videos. Enjoy;p

    But your bone is most likely not very old. You can test it tho, go to a university next to you and get some Carbon/Uranium Dating.
    The video is barley science, it is an advertisement. It is inaccurate and childish simplified. Even considering, you think it is a joke, it shows the core.

    Take 10 minutes of your precious time and watch the video I've linked on the last page, it explains everything way better and more reasonable than I ever could.

    Please don't escalate this into religion, we are not trying to disprove a God here and I just wanted to clarify a few complex things. There are some nice science links here already. I would love to discuss this/answer questions via pm tho.

    posting stuff people claim without any evidence is not bending, it is breaking the rules of a post science thread.

    I have a directed, automatic blink in Incomewars, download it here at sc2m.

    combine it with the random offset and periodic mentioned by Trieva and it should be no problem

    edit: hero - nova has the ability, it is currently caused by a damage response behavior, change that to periodic

    I've just now noticed that float multiplication is really really bad and off and division is rather accurate.
    Curiosly I remember it being the other way around...

    27000.0 * 0.0025 = 65.918
    27000.0 / 400.0 = 67.5
