texts: How to make a simple portable rapid piston toggler?

texts:
I plan to bury an ocean monument under sand.

To do this, I'll need a simple mechanism of a piston toggling fast, as I drop new sand blocks as it pushes them away, that way I get up to 12 blocks long, full ocean depth strip filled with sand. Then move the piston and its mechanism, and fill another strip, and another...

The part I need is clocking the piston to keep moving. Doesn't need to be elaborate - just the opposite, should be as simple as possible, to reduce the work needed moving the mechanism, and milk consumption (due to "mining fatigue under which I'll likely work.)

So - what simplest redstone circuit will make the piston toggle pretty fast?

(extra requirement, at least early on: circuit doesn't extend downwards below the piston; there will be water beneath the initial surface isle, the "block under lillypad" trick used to create the first "stepping stone", and a bucket of lava to expand it rapidly into a small floating isle. So the circuit may be flat or go up or sideways, but not down).

texts: What is the most efficient way to level up my blacksmithing while conserving as much of my resources as possible?

texts: Can I safely mine and sell all the Beacon blocks after the first quest to find 2 of them?

texts: In the game Super Motherload there is a quest to find two Beacon blocks, after that they become mineable normal blocks, should I keep some for later quests, or can I mine and sell them all ?


texts: My paladin deck is having a bit of trouble against Hunter Zoo as they almost always run  Unleash the Hounds, which limits my hero ability's usefulness since I like to spam 1/1 minions on my side.  They are also quite adept at stripping divine shields with explosive traps and tiny minions.  What are some strategies I can use to counter hunter decks.  The only reliable board clear I have is consecrate and its not guarenteed I'll have one on hand when I need it.


texts: How do I seal off a cavern in Dwarf Fortress?

texts: Is there a way to prevent Nook from auto selling a spot?

texts:
My SO has that problem, but I never encountered it myself.

It seems that Nook, when someone moves out, will auto fill the spot left with a random villager, and that in usually 2-3 days, sometimes even the day straight after the villager has left.

That makes her mad because she wants to find the perfect villager, but gets stuck with a random villager before she could do a good amount of mystery islands to find it.

So is there a way to tell Nook to not auto sell the spot? (Or is there something that she does that it 'auto sells' the spot or at least looks like that)

texts: Good class and profession combinations for leveling with a friend in WoW?

texts:
this is kind of a follow up to my recent question regarding WoW and leveling (here). My friend decided to try WoW and i would like to play with him from level 1 to 85 with a brand new character. I would like to know what are some good choices of class and professions in a 2-man party, so that there is perfect synergy between us? We are on a PvE server and are mainly focused on PvE, so you can disregard anything thats related to PvP (Arenas etc.).

One thing to consider is that my friend strongly favors playing as a hunter (he looked through the classes available in WoW and immediatelly fell in love with this one). However I can probably persuade him to play something else.

As a side note, i was thinking of a Druid+Hunter combo, where Hunter would go for Skin/LW and Druid for Herb/Alch. Both can benefit from Alch (elixirs etc.) and both wear leather (+mail for the hunter). Any other ideas, suggestions?

texts: When do Pokemon outbreaks change routes?

texts:
I was trying to find out when the swarming on a Pokemon outbreak change to another route, but I could only find this information about "soft-reset". But nothing about the time to reset while playing.

Bulbapedia:

"The gates in Unova have a monitor inside that will alert the player where an outbreak is taking place. During winter, the monitor may occasionally not report on outbreaks, which is due to parts of Route 8, where Croagunk can be found, becoming frozen during Winter and not allowing the Pokémon to be caught there. All have the level range of 15-55.
Unlike previous games, the Pokémon outbreaks can be manipulated by soft resetting the game: turning the console off without saving the game beforehand. When the game is restarted, there will be a different Pokémon swarming."

In Black-White (gen V) works like Gen II ?

"Pokémon outbreaks originated in Generation II. In that generation, if the player registered a certain Trainer in the Pokégear, that Trainer would occassionally call to tell the player that he saw or heard about a large number of Pokémon in a certain area; for the next 30 minutes after such a call (in real time, not play time), the swarming Pokémon would appear in the given area with much greater frequency than the usual 1%."


texts: I just started playing Fruit Ninja: Puss in Boots on Android and so far it seems that there is a billion achievements, since I've been unlocking them constantly.  However, there's no link to Feint on the home screen (like in the original Fruit Ninja) and I don't see any other way to view (a) what achievements I've gotten or (b) what achievements I have yet to get.  How can I track my achievements?


texts: What unusual effects work with the slider?

texts:
It seems that only a select set of effects work with the slider, because whenever I try to adjust my Time Warp Unusual hat, it won't budge one bit.  Yet, when I try to adjust a Nuts n Bolts Unusual hat, it seems to move fine.

Is this a bug on my part? Or is there a predetermined list of effects that work with the slider?


texts: Why is Conflux often banned in tournaments?

texts:
I've heard many times that Conflux is an overpowered town. Some of its strengths are indeed a thing to consider:

Phoenixes are good 7th level creatures (when upgraded), creatures of levels 1-3 are also good. However, many other towns also have strong creatures, for example, Castle with its also overall strong creature line.
A lot of units are immune to Armageddon, making the Drageddon tactic strong as Conflux and weak against Conflux. However, I didn't see Armageddon as a popular spell. Finding the Grail, which is the only way to get Armageddon in Conflux, is also rare, and probably indeed deserves a decent reward.
Elementals are immune to Mind spells and to Bad Morale.
Conflux caster heroes are strong, especially some of them, like Luna. Still, other towns also have heroes that are too good and hence banned.
Magic University allows getting the desired magic schools quicker if gold is available.

However, just as many other cities, it has its downsides:

While Elementals are unaffected by negative morale, they are also unaffected when it is positive (like the Undead).
There are no ranged units without upgrades, which can take time.
Elementals cannot be resurrected and have vulnerabilities to certain spells.
Level 4-6 units are not so good.
Conflux is generally rather expensive. Most of its strengths don't pop up unless a lot of resources are available.
While it is easy to clear the map with some of the Conflux tactics, this city is vulnerable to an early rush, especially when resources are scarce.

A similar list of pros and cons could be written for any town in the game. This town has never appeared really overpowered to me, yet it is banned in tournaments when possible. But I am not a professional player, so I am asking:

What makes this town overpowered rather than just an interesting addition to the game?


texts:
In my world im trying to make Zombified Piglin gold farm. That requires turning a 23 x 23 nether portal with a flint and steel dispenser and a water dispenser for completing this mechanic. I got the fire part down but there is an issue with the water dispenser. It wont remove the water when the redstone signal turn off. To conserve flint and steel durability, I'm making the entire portal manual by flicking a lever on to activate and deactivate the portal once.
What answer I'm looking for
I want to figure out how turn the water on and off with just one redstone signal just after the F&S dispenser activates the portal (activate and deactivate the portal when a redstone signal is recieved).


texts: Do party members gain bonuses from using their "story" weapon?

texts:

Is there any reason to arm him with that instead of using the best rifle in the game (found midway through the game)? It's a pretty lame rifle all things considered.

Does it even make any difference on squad effectiveness?


texts: Is it possible to fail Cold Call Killer?

texts:
I'm getting pretty close to being able to trace the call for the sidequest Cold Call Killer. However, I was wondering if it was possible to fail the trace? It seems like there is ample opportunity to miss tracing the call, especially if you don't move your cursor. I found out that you get a game over and have to retry if you miss getting to one of the ringing phones.

What happens when you fail to trace the call? Will the entire sidequest fail, or will you get another chance to trace it?

But whenever I try to purchase a car of the car pack it tells me to buy it.

Can anyone help me out here?


texts: How do the codes for the final Club Nintendo Platinum/Gold reward work?

texts:
I am a platinum member on Club Nintendo, and recently Nintendo released their Elite member rewards for the year: downloadable 3DS/Wii U games.

My question is: If I choose AC:NL as my reward, can I download that digital copy of the game onto another, completely separate 3DS? Is the download linked to my Club Nintendo/NNID, or is it a download code that I can use on another unlinked device?

texts:
I've only been playing for a couple weeks, but I feel like I have a good grasp on the basic mechanics of the game, as well on the gameplay in general. However, one concept continually dumbfounds me: spotting. All of my attempts to play a scout/spotter, or even just a lookout, end in disaster, often with me being destroyed by enemies I can't even see. Other times, when playing non-scout tanks, I believe myself to be well-concealed only to suddenly encounter a hailstorm of enemy fire coming from seemingly nowhere.

I'm sure I'm missing something. I have thoroughly read this page on the subject and have tried to adjust my playstyle accordingly, but still find myself out-spotted in nearly every circumstance, excepting only when I use solid cover and do not move - effectively, when I hide like a little girl - and even that seems to be hit-and-miss.

Are the high-credit-priced additional equipment items required for effective scouting/spotting purposes? Does everyone run camo nets and binocs, even at tier II? Or is there a mechanic I am missing? My ideal answer would include someone breaking it down bit by bit, complete with example if possible.

EDIT: Players in-game have told me that a player parked in bushes does NOT receive the same penalty to sight range as a player who is in the open would to see him. I.e. two identical tanks, one in bushes and one not, would not have the same effective view range. Is this true? The Wiki makes no mention of it, but it would explain many of my problems.

texts: Do villagers get bored of exchanging carrots with each other?

texts:
I set up an auto villager breeder, and put some carrots on ice with water that makes it move around in a circle. Villagers pick them up, give them to other villagers, and I get a bunch of baby villagers.

But just recently, after about 30-45 minutes of villagers swapping around carrots, the hearts stopped appearing. I think they were still exchanging carrots, but I wasn't seeing any baby villagers (the farm is set up in a way where baby villagers immediately drop down onto a platform, so I'd know if there were any new ones). I took out all carrots and replaced them with wheat, and the hearts started appearing again.

So do I need to change the crops every so often? Was it just coincidence that they started breeding again right after I swapped to different crops? Or do villagers get tired of giving the same thing to other villages over and over?

I am in 1.11.2, the nearest the village is over 100 blocks away, and there's about 6 villagers in the 2x2 chunk square.

If villagers do get bored of crops and want a new crop every so often, will I eventually run out of crops or can I cycle through them?

texts: In werewolv.es, can a Graverobber be recruited into the Inquisition and, if so, can the Graverobber become a Witchcraft user?

texts:
According to the H2P for the Inquisition Leader:

The Inquisition Leader is not able to recruit any player who already has a night-faction (Familiar, Coven member, Undead member, Mason, Illuminati Member) or any user of Witchcraft but will not be killed if they try. This failed recruit does not count towards the ability use limit.
The recruited villager retains their original ability.

And for the Graverobber:

The Graverobber is not seen as a user of witchcraft.

Therefore, it makes sense that the Inquisition Leader can recruit a Graverobber, who can then go on to steal the role of a village witchcraft user.
If the Graverobber successfully steals the role of a village witchcraft user (e.g. seer) will they remain part of the Inquisition? If so, do the Inquisition need to kill the ex-Graverobber in order to fulfil their win condition?


texts:
I love how you can have a multitude of companions in this game that all give you perks and things.

I've also heard that bringing certain companions with you can trigger small scenes here and there.

However, I love to take my time, be very carefully around each corner, and companions just ruin all my sneaking attempts, so I don't use them :(...

I have the lone wanderer perk, so IMO it makes up for the carry weight that a companion can bring, and let's suppose that I have maxed all my character perks so I don't need things like lock picking and hacking, in that case, what are all the disadvantages (which cannot be made up for) does never brining any companions with me give my character?

Do I need to backup any sort of save game information or is it all online with battle.net?

texts: What stats should I be prioritizing/near-endgame questions in general

texts:
I'm a level 900 wizard in Gemcraft: Labyrinth, with around 8500 skill points. My general goal is to create a Y/O/L supergem that goes in a trap, with a B/C/P before it that slows/stuns/armor-shreds things to soften them up for the killing gem.

I used to play this game religiously, but fell out of it after not being sure how to proceed with high-level Endurance runs.

I have max stats in everything that has a cap except for Banisher (decreased banishment cost, but who needs that? If you're letting things leak, you're playing the game wrong), and Poison/Bloodbound masteries.
Focus gives me 800% extra min/max mana, Replenish gives me 275% mana gain over time and kill, and Resonance gives me 225% extra damage. At this point, I'm not sure which stat I should be prioritizing. With a higher starting mana, it will cost much less to get more mana in the long run. Mana over time and per kill makes it easier to get better gems faster, and damage is...damage.

I'm also wondering how much summoning I should be doing during certain parts of the game; how many gems on which waves, and what grades should they be? When should I stop summoning? Also the ratio of orange to lime to yellow in the killgem, as well as when to squish out the orange. Other tips in general would be appreciated.

EDIT: I play with setting at max aside from Waves Get Tougher Faster.


texts: Half-Life 2 Eye Targets/Eye movements broken

texts:
Okay I have a very big problem with my Half-Life 2 that appeared last year and I haven't been able to fix it since.

Since recently replaying, the eyes do not move on ANY NPC whatsoever. They simply stay in one position as if they're frozen in place. They don't look in different directions and they won't look at me. It shouldn't be bothering me this much but it just feels awkward and it's making it harder to concentrate on what they're saying.

So does anyone know why this is? I can't tell if I some how deleted a code when cleaning out my computer or my own version of steam is messing it up. I know it's only me as well cause my friend is playing it and the eyes work fine for him.

I don't want to lose 500k (was on sale) if it forces me to get rid of the West Bank and I wouldn't mind trying out being an associate / trying the bodyguard role.

If I resign my title as CEO, do I lose the West Bank and then have to buy it again ?


texts:
I've recently started farming horses, and according to all the guides I've read, feeding a golden carrot to a horse causes it to enter "love mode" (hearts appear around it) which will then cause it to mate with other nearby horses in "love mode".

I currently have about 10 horses, however when I feed golden carrots to them the majority of the time the carrots just disappear and there is no noticeable change in the horses. Out of the 10 horses, usually only two of them enter "love mode".

Is there a way to increase my success when breeding horses?

texts: Ice wizard attacking defending clan castle troops

texts:
I'm preparing for war (TH 9) and I've found great success with GoWiPe (2x Golem, 3 Pekka, 6 skeletons and rest wizards). So I figured I'd try replacing wizards with ice wizards (as they cost so much less). However, when I was doing some challenges it didn't appear the ice wizards were shooting at the defending dragon. However according to their information, they do attack air units to.

Is there anything that's different about the ice wizards preferred target, compared to the wizards? Is there anything special about them shooting flying troops? Are regular wizards better in anyway?

texts: XBox 360 no longer displaying video - However, no RROD

texts:
So I went to turn on the 360 yesterday to play some NCAA as I like to do from time to time and noticed that nothing came up on the screen.

I found this odd and then looked to see if there was any red-ring of death notification; however, there wasn't.  So I'm not quite sure if there is a repair I can do myself.

Leading up to this the video was starting to act goofy....almost like the videocard wasn't able to render everything and keep up.  It was like layers were missing from the video and the quality had gone to crap.  I assume this is a video card issue....

Any ideas on how to fix this?

I'm guessing I'm SOL but am hoping someone can help me out.

texts: How to allow previously unblocked minecraft server through firewall?

texts:
I've been playing minecraft for about a week now, frequently hopping onto a specific server. This worked just fine, until yesterday when minecraft kept showing me the connection refused error.
I've tried to look up solutions and done the thing where you allow port 25565 through the windows defender firewall manually, but this didnt work as I still couldn't connect and when I tested through canyouseeme it kept showing the port was closed. Other solutions I've found seemed geared towards helping other people set up their own minecraft server, when I'm not interested in this, I simply want to connect to someone elses server. I've tried several times now to unblock the port or through "allow an app through windows defender" to allow java connections, but none of these help and I'm starting to lose hope a bit. Does anyone know how to solve this?


texts: Does the position of module upgrades affect their effect in No Man's Sky

texts:
All upgrades in NMS say that they get activated as soon as they are available inside the inventory/suit/cartridge. Though, I have noticed that, suppose, if I put all mining tool upgrades close to each other, they all get a green coloured aura around them.

texts: Audio Issues with Steam Version of Bully

texts:
I've recently gifted my friend a copy of the game Bully when I picked it up cheap during the Steam Summer Sale 2015, as I played the game on Wii way back when that came out, and absolutely loved it.

He has an unexpected problem though. All of the NPCs in the area are constantly saying their lines, instead of once in a while, and only the ones near him. It is significantly worse than it was in the console version, which could get a little annoying at times, but easily manageable. With the amount of chaos happening, I would not expect him to be able to play anymore.

Does anybody know of a way to fix this? Changing audio settings seems to do absolutely nothing, and the only thing I really saw online is to set the sound to surround sound, which hasn't done anything.

He's not sure of what audio drivers he is using, and he only has a Logitech G930 available right now for audio output.

I just started a new Minecraft world with the MineColonies mod and I stumbled across something I've never seen before.

Why are these buildings here?

*Minecolony is the abandoned predecessor of the recently undertaken MineColonies incarnation.  MineColonies does not appear to have a separate wiki, so I used Minecolony's.


texts: How can I reliably catch fish without drowning?

texts:
Fish are tasty and delicious and profitable and make for all kinds of very powerful food. The trouble is, they like to hang out in lakes and rivers and stuff, and are much faster swimmers than poor old Link. While I can usually catch a fish by hitting the 'Dash' button to swim quickly at them, this burns a lot of stamina, and I often don't have enough left in the tank to make it to shore. especially if I need to scale a cliff before I can stand on dry land again. That leaves me stuck choosing between eating food to get more stamina to go fishing... or just drowning and eating the health loss (often literally, as I eat food to recover it...)

Both of these options really put a damper on the usefulness of acquiring fish. Is there a better way to catch fish that won't get me killed? Perhaps a pole? Maybe some scuba gear?

texts:
I'm playing as a Demon Hunter and recently I was looking at the passive skills when I saw Cull the Weak skill that increases damage against slow enemies by 15%.

The question is: does this skill only work with the effects of the other skills(Caltrops, Rapid Fire with Web Shot rune, Entangling Shot, etc)?

Or does cold damage on the weapon also count as slow effect for this skill?

If so, then a 2-hand Bow with some cold damage, Archery, Cull the Weak and Steady Aim would give a nice +50% damage bonus.


texts: I've been playing the 2002 game, Divine Divinity, on Steam (Amazing game btw).

  20 most recent games).

When looking through my career profile, i can only find a number on my games played, but not a number stating how many i've completed.

Is there a way to look into this kind of info (official databse)? Maybe even a "game history" where i can look at specifically those 20 most recent games mentioned?

texts:
I know from reading this question how to finish up the follower conversations, however to get "The Art of Conversation" I need to complete almost all conversations in the game (I believe there are a handful that don't count).  I've beat the game at this point, so I believe all conversations should be unlocked, but I see that I can't simply proceed to the last mission in each Act to get all conversations from the other NPCs.  I am genuinely interested in hearing all of the conversation, but I'd like to perform a "speed run" in which I make the minimum number of stops to get them all.  Actual speed is not an issue, I just want to maximize efficiency.

The ideal answer will specify the minimum stops in terms of events/quests/acts to gather all conversations.

I found a solution, but it seems it was made before the 1.13 update.

Obviously a nation that has good relations with me now is more likely to vote for me in the short term, but are there any long-term effects I should watch out for (nations with the potential for expansion, weak nations, strong nations, nations that border me, etc.)?

I haven't been able to find a way to push the rock to the left site of the dart demon, so I get hit when I try to get the potion.

texts: Can I farm iron in Minecraft Bedrock edition?

texts:
Is there any decent1 way to farm iron in Minecraft Bedrock edition (survival mode)?

The best I've found so far is this silentwisperer's tutorial based on Pekoneko's iron golem farm. But despite it being designed specifically for Bedrock edition, it seems to have some reliability issues, according to people's comments. I'm willing to spend the week it would take me to build it, but not if it's going to need repairing every time I log in the game.

Laking of another solution, I'm just mining the iron, which is painfully slow. I'm aware of these tips and of this, both helpful when you need a lot of iron... but not so much when you need an insane amount of it2.

(1): by decent, I mean automatic (or at least semiautomatic) and reliable. It doesn't need to yield a trillion ingots per hour, as long as it isn't slower than actually mining the iron, it's fine.

(2): I'm building a rather large auto-organizer storage system, and it will require 10.505 iron ingots for the hoppers alone. I'm already halfway there, but it's taking forever.


texts: How to play the demo stage in the original Prince of Persia (1989) for DOS?

texts:
In the intro to the original 1989 Prince of Persia for DOS, there is a demo stage of the game, which is played in a loop together with the intro itself.

I believe this is a screenshot from that level.

]

This level is not included as part of the normal levels of the game. My question is, how can I play it?

I'm aware there are by now level editors as well as many level packs, some extremely tough ones. I'm not that interested in those. I remember watching that demo and wondering if it is possible to somehow play that particular level -- hence my interest in it.

Is it possible to play within the original game? Some cheat code? Some argument you can give to the game when starting it that enables this demo level to be played?

If not, maybe someone remade that particular level? If I have to install some new level it isn't as interesting, but I'd still be curious.

texts: Where can I see the bonus of Warhelm of Kassar?

texts:
I found a helmet the other day called Warhelm of Kassar, which has a great bonus to Phalanx.

I've since 'cubed' this item to get it's power, and have the bonus of "Reduce the cooldown and increase the damage of Phalanx by 60%."

However, when I open the details on my character, I can only see, 'Phalanx damage bonus 20%' which is from the Lord Commander passive.

Is this correct? Is this an invisible bonus? The recharge is definitely having an effect, but why don't I see 80% dmg bonus to Phalanx in my details?


texts: Borderlands Lilith's talents Radiance and Phoenix explanation?

texts:
So I'm looking through Lilith's Talent Tree Elemental and I see two skills that interested me the most. One is Radiance and the other is Phoenix. Both skills have a maximum of +12 (at level 60-69) to their respective elemental damages, fire and shock. The part that puzzles me is how much damage is this actually doing considering even at level 5, 12 damage is nothing to brag about even per second.

If this is true then together I would be able to do an amazing (sarcastic) 24 damage per second to any enemy I come near after killing someone in phasewalk. With this in mind, I would find these talents to be completely useless besides Phoenix having the chance to not use ammo. So what is the actual damage I can do with these talents, because I'm hoping they do more.


texts: Disabling Fallout 4 "Creation Club" item/mod

texts:
I've started playing Fallout 4 on PC again after a few months away. As I've been fighting, I've noticed that the dead NPCs I kill will despawn/disappear immediately when the battle ends, with the exception of whoever I kill last.

For example, I just picked up a radiant quest to defend Nordhagen beach. Three raiders wearing power armor spawned and I killed all three. (They were just normal raiders, no Legendaries.) After the fight, the quest marked itself complete successfully. I was standing over the body of the last raider, and could loot him. The other two were gone.

This has caused me to have to change my usual strategy to loot bodies as I kill them, which I find very annoying. (Additionally it sometimes causes me to lose out on possibly good loot when fighting high level enemies since I can't just stop and loot while taking fire.)

While I don't play with external mods, I do have a bunch of the "Creation Club" extras which I added between my last time playing and now. These are:

Gunners v Minutemen
Modular Military Backpack
Virtual Workshop: Grid World

Of these, the most likely culprit is Gunners v Minutemen since it's a gameplay extra. The Backpack is just an extra item, and the Virtual World extra is just a settlement enhancement. I've looked around, but I can't figure out how to disable the GvM extra to see if it's what's causing the problem. The page in Creation Club just shows "Installed", and the available options are just "Download" (does nothing/disabled) and "Purchase Credits".

Is it possible to disable this Creation Club item somehow so that I can figure out if it's the cause of the buggy disappearing bodies? I found some Reddit threads which talked about uninstalling the game, verifying the cache, and then reinstalling it and making sure not to download the particular CC items in question. (I'd like to avoid going this route because my internet connection is pretty flaky so downloading massive files is problematic.)

I did take a peek at LOOT but I wasn't able to identify any of the *.esl as being this particular mod. LOOT didn't show any problems, however.

Basically my goal is just to disable this CC item to see if that fixes the issue. If not, I'll re-enable it and try troubleshooting something else.

texts:
I would like to set up a big computercraft network with one main computer using wireless modems and rednet api. Though I was not able to find any tutorials - all of the tutorials I found were using Craft os 1.6 or lower (I am using 1.7). The wiki was not much help either.

Thank you in advance.

texts:
I don't have Xbox live or even internet, but I would still like to create my own class (as far as I know you have to be on level 4 for that and you have to be online to level up) on COD 4. I also have modern warfare 3 and in there you can level up in the local multiplayer. I was wondering if you can do the same in the first game.

Can you level up without going online?

I don't know if its important but I am playing on an Xbox 360.

But if I don't have a second admin in my tribe, what can I do? I have a second account, but I seem to be unable to invite an unconscious person (which is what I am when I get on my second account).

How can I get myself back into a tribe on hardcore mode without having another player need to be an admin and re-invite me?


texts: How do I glide in "Batman: Arkham City" during the "Demon Trials"?

texts:
I am playing Batman: Arkham City on the PC (Windows). I am stuck on the Demon Trials level where one has to follow a blue path through the air by alternating between gliding and dive bombing.

I have looked online, and everywhere says the same thing. One simply holds down W+Space to glide, and W+Space+Left CTRL to dive bomb. So, essentially, one should just hold down W+Space the whole time, and switch between holding down the Left CTRL and not holding it down, in order to dive bomb or not, respectively.

However, every single time, I start in glide mode, then I do a dive bomb, and as soon as I let go of the Left CTRL button, Batman stops gliding and plummets to the ground like a bag of wet cement.

I have read some things that seem to indicate pulling back (or forward) on the mouse makes a difference, but not as far as I've experienced. I've also tried every variation I can think of for how I switch between keys and which ones I hold down in what order, but nothing makes a difference.

How can I get Batman to glide and dive bomb using a PC keyboard and mouse as is necessary to pass this level?

texts:
I'm playin Infiltrator with Assault Rifle unlocked on Veteran difficulty. I'm currently 26 and having real trouble with pretty much any fight that contains more than three mobs. No matter what I do or what team I bring or what upgrades i have, we seem to be overwhelmed in seconds. I try to be tactical and move Ashley to the front and let Liara or Wrex use biotics but that takes down perhaps one or two mobs and then the rest simply swarm us. I don't even have time to use my sniper rifle. I actually timed one fight with geth from encounter to death and it was over in four seconds. Ashley got two-shotted and then I was swamped.

When reloading the outcome of the same battle is completely random. I had trouble with Benezia but at the fifth or sixth reload, I breezed through the battle and ended with near full health. Overall combat mechanics seem extremely arbitrary.

I'm thinking if lowering the difficulty because it's not really fun anymore. Especially when I don't even get a chance to be tactical. Not even Ashley or Wrex can survive that kind of onslaught, Liara even less. Is it supposed to be this way?


texts: Cheapest way to get Xbox 360 online wirelessly

texts:
I have an Xbox 360 and am looking to move it far enough away from my router that plugging it in with a LAN cable isn't really feasible anymore.

What's the cheapest way for me to get it online wirelessly? The wireless adaptors for Xbox strike me as being ridiculously expensive for what they are. (Upwards of $60 in most cases.)

I have a media center PC that is running on wireless right next to the Xbox, that I could chain off of, but I saw in a few searches that people were saying that messed up their Xboxes.

My other option is probably some kind of wireless bridge.

What's my best bet for this?

texts: In Overwatch, is ultimate charge rate affected by damage boosts?

texts:
Many characters in the game charge up their ultimate abilities by dealing damage to enemies. Abilities such as Mercy's Caduceus Staff, Orisa's Supercharger and Ana's Nano Boost grant a % increase to the damage output of characters.

Does this amplified damage affect the ultimate-charging speed of the target heroes in any way? i.e. will Symmetra get more charge if her orb hits an enemy while damage-amped, rather than not?

I tried pressing the SELECT button in the bag, but this just gives you the ability sort the items, it doesn't bind them...


texts: How do I catch the fish that swallowed the key?

texts:
In Marvelous for the Super Famicom, I'm stuck at the spot where you're supposed to free a kid from his chains using a key that fell in a river.

According to the guides I've found, the key has been swallowed by one of the fish in the pond further down the river, and you have to catch the right one to get it. However, I've been at it for some time and no luck; some fish bite, but none of them had the key, and some fish won't - maybe one of them has it?

How do I get the key for the chains to continue the game?

Update: the person playing this video walkthrough (around 00:42:20) gets the key with the first attempt, although I can't see the reason

texts:
I'm covering everywhere near my house with my torches and building walls (using fences or blocks) around them, to make sure no creepers blow me up as I come out, or trample my sugar cane and wood. (I have now completed about 80% — without using any mods, tools, or other cheats.)

However, as you can see, the tops of some trees are too dark. So I'm worried about monsters spawning on the top of trees. There's some mention about leaves and mobs in Minecraft Wiki:

  ...and they never spawn on Glass, Ice, Stone Slabs, or other see-through or non-cube blocks.

(I'm playing Minecraft in fancy mode.) Even if monsters can't spawn on the leaves, maybe some monster can spawn on the wood that's not covered by leaves.

(Don't mention about spiders -- since they can climb fences as you know and I don't care about them)

Can monsters exist near my house?

The distance between my torches is 5 metres.

texts: What features to look for a gaming mouse that works as a full-time mouse?

texts:
What should we look for in a gaming mouse that would also be used for other stuff?

Obviously any gaming mouse will work fine for anything else, but, for instance, I wish to have 2 axis wheel for horizontal scrolling (use it a lot on internet browsing and image manipulation and yes, I'm on a mac). So, which other feature a gaming mice usually lacks that we should look for?

Here are few more instances of features I could think of:

Are there particular advantages to laser, optical or infrared tracking options? I've read somewhere laser mice are bad options for irregular surfaces.
Does DPI matter? Is this a feature I should consider? If so, are there any relevant thresholds?
What ergonomic features matter? Handedness, shape?
Obviously the best choice is wired mouse, but just wondering about technical aspects: battery and responsiveness wise should I look for bluetooth or other wireless technology?
As for wheels, is there any kind of 2 axis wheel that will not be bad for gaming?

texts: Minecraft command block teleport with Target selector arguments

texts:
I have a 1 tick clock, which leads to a command block with the command:

testfor @p[-262,3,113,1] {SelectedItem:{id:minecraft:stick}}

That works. It finds me under the right conditions.

Then I have a redstone comparator, leading to a redstone repeater (seemed to be needed), then another command block for the actual command to do.

If the (second) command is

tp @p -268 3 113

then it works.

If it is any of the following then it won't teleport (though the first command block is finding me)

tp @p[-262,3,113,1] -268 3 113
tp @p[x=-262,y=3,z=113,r=1] -268 3 113
tp @p[-262,3,113,1] {SelectedItem:{id:minecraft:stick}} -268 3 113
tp @p[x=-262,y=3,z=113,r=1] {SelectedItem:{id:minecraft:stick}} -268 3 113

Can anyone suggest an answer?

Edit:

I'm on Minecraft 1.8.8.

Here's the clock (off to the right is a switch to turn it on and off, off to the left is the command block circuit).

Here's the main circuit. The right hand command block is the first (the testfor). Behind it is a redstone repeater.

The left hand command block is the second (the tp).

Hope that helps.

texts: When does the difficulty increase in Tallowmere?

texts: Sometimes when I enter a room I get the message "Your enemies grow stronger...". How does the game decide when to do that? I haven't found any pattern to it, and it's putting a damper on my enjoyment of the game, because it seems to happen more often the more powerful I am. This means that finding an epic weapon isn't really that great, because it seems like the game immediately adjusts the difficulty so that I'm no more powerful than before.

texts: Why isn't my doctor finishing this dwarfs treatment?

texts:
I was digging a vertical shaft and had a little ... incident ... that resulted in what I think was four dwarfs falling various distances and/or being crushed from above. Three of them didn't make it to the hospital in time, but the forth is there now resting.

I'm a newbie to the game and am playing in "safe" surrounding, so this if my first injury to deal with.

My (single) doctor diagnosed, cleaned and sutered, then seemed to stop. But the health status screen shows the dwarf needs bones setting, dressing and immobilization. The doctor's labours were set to be only the medical ones as soon as the incident happened, but the doc is walking around with "no job" at the moment.

On closer inspection it seems my hospital zone has no plaster powder (it has all the other things listed, including a traction bench), but I have plaster powder (after a hunt I found several bags in a stockpile near my kiln).

Is the fact the plaster isn't in the hospital preventing my doctor from using it?
If so, how do I get it transported to the hospital? I made the plaster (game) months ago so they've had plenty of time to move it already, why hasn't it been moved?

Is there a way to bind your normal attacks to something like League of Legends Attack Move?

This means that I target the closest visible target near my cursor that is in range. Which means if an enemy is behind me but in range and I click in front of me that I will attack that enemy.

In League I can easily kite because of this attack move but in Diablo I cannot. Mostly because most models are smaller which make me miss click more often then I'd like. So I was hoping that I could bind a key to do this. If there is some setting file I can try to fiddle with that.

I understand that there is no real structure to creating recipes (the only difference is status effects; or creating elixirs) but I was just wondering if there was any record that I can refer to in-game, because I would prefer it to just random concoctions each time.


texts: How does Master Yi's ultimate interact with Viktor's Gravity Field?

texts:
Master Yi cannot be slowed while his Ultimate is active.

Viktor's Gravity Field spell causes all units in its AOE to receive a stacking slow debuff and will stun any hero that receives 3 stacks of this debuff.

If Master Yi is within the Gravity Field long enough that he would have been stunned if his ultimate wasn't preventing him from being slowed, will he still be stunned?

texts: How can you distinguish Berserkers from other Uruks?

texts:
I have just begun encountering Berserkers. They are enemies who can counter normal attacks, so you have to stun them before attacking them. If someone counters my attack, I can tell he's a Berserker that way, but that involves me taking damage from his counter.

Is there a way to tell an enemy is a Berserker before I attack him, so I can avoid this trial and error method of combat?


texts: Will solo matchmaking match you solo players from the main queue?

texts:
In Dota 2, solo matchmaking will look up only players who aren't in a party. Will it match this condition only with other players in the solo matchmaking queue, or will it get people from the common queue too?

I'm just afraid that this queue mode is not using the common queue. If not, I'll send a suggestion to the dev team.

texts: What does "tracks targets" mean in the description of recon scopes?

texts: I noticed the option to craft Recon Scopes for certain weapons which requires a higher level of Gun Nut than I currently have. The description mentiones "tracks targets" as one benefit of the mod, what exactly does this do?

I really want to marry Carlotta Valentia.
