texts: Is there a way to avoid hostile encounters in space?

texts:
Every now and then, I will receive the "Hostiles Detected" notification when I am nearby a planet and I will turn around, land, and wait for the hostiles to pass by. This situation is no big trouble at all when attempting to avoid a battle, but there are also times I will receive the notification when I have been warping into space and I am nowhere near a space station or planet.

When I am in the middle of nowhere - aside from reloading the last save or destroying the enemy ships - there is not much I can do to avoid the fight as I am unable to active my pulse engines when hostiles are near by.

When engage in a space battle, are there any tactics to avoid the battle all together?

texts: How to get to attack and defeat Alani (for the Mount)

texts:
There is a beautiful serpent flying around the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, teasing all the Mount Collectors in the game. She is called Alani.

I heard that you need some shard(s) to get to remove her shield thing, but I am not sure how to get these shards or how to use them.

So basically, my question is:

How can I get the shard(s) that I need.
How do I use the item(s) required to be able to attack Alani.
Is the Mount a 100% from Alani, or does it get mailed or instantly added?


texts: Seeing this question reminded me of the only time it wasn't obvious to me which upgrade a certain unit used - the baneling.  Since it is an area attack that is acid, it could have go either way in my head.

texts: How do I keep skeletons from jumping in my xp farm?

texts:
I have a simple xp farm using a skeleton spawner. My main problem with it is that the skeletons won't stop moving.

Here's the basic setup as I have it right now:

b=block
w=water flow
#=air

w # b
b # b
b # b (etc for the appropriate height)
. . .
b # b
b # #
b b b

The skeletons fall down into the tube, and I can stand and punch them through the gap without allowing them to hit me. The problem is, they like to jump up and down, as if trying to escape, so it's hard to hit them. How can I keep them from jumping while still letting them come down for me to hit?

texts: Is there a flying-rats / hidden packages equivalent in GTA V?

texts:
Former GTA titles always featured some kind of collectable placed at various often hard to reach or somewhat special places throughout the map.

It was flying rats (= pigeons) in GTA 4, horseshoes/oysters in San Andreas, hidden packages in Vice City and GTA 3.

I haven't found or heard of any of those things in GTA V.
So is there some kind of collectable, or have they broken with tradition?


texts: Minecraft Server Wasn't Auto-Saving, Save Data Gone. Any Hope to Get it Back?

texts:
Recently, I closed my Minecraft server the same way I always have--clicking the red x to close the window. For whatever reason, it's stopped saving over the last ten days. When I reopened the server, none of the data from the last ten days was there. None of the new buildings, none of the items, etc etc.

When looking at the files, the latest backup for anything--world, player, etc data--is also ten days ago. I'm aware that, unless somehow the data has been saving to the wrong folder, it's never been saved to at all.

My question is if there's anything to be done. Is all of the memory simply held in RAM while the console is running the server? We've had players log in and log out plenty of times, but all of their information was fine. It's hard to believe that that console running was managing everything.

I've recovered """permanently deleted""" Data before from some hardware. I'm willing to pull my computer apart for that too.

texts: Portal will not start new game when I click on "Start New Game"

texts:
I just got Portal and I can't seem to start a new game. Initially, clicking on "New Game" on the main menu showed a dialog box with no content.

I've tried to find the answer online and saw to copy the files from the portal folder to the hl2 folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal has both of these folders within it). This now shows a list of "chapters" when I click on "New Game", but nothing happens when I click on "Start new game". I've tried clicking on Chapter 1 and then starting, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Portal, I've also uninstalled and reinstalled Steam but to no avail.

The dialog box closes when I click "Start new game" and then nothing else happens; I'm still on the main menu. Everyone else who I've found online who has this problem solved it by copying the files to the hl2 folder or reinstalling the game, but neither of these solutions have completely solved the issue for me. I have Portal 2 installed as well, and it works perfectly fine.

Does anyone know how to fix this or a situation like mine that has been solved?


texts: What items give the holder "killer" status in online werewolv.es?

texts:
When checking a player for their ability to be able to kill, the Adjudicator role also takes into consideration any items they may be holding that night. Which items give the 'killer' status in this situation?

Will holding a Veil of Shadows, which makes the player appear innocent to all checks, override both role and item 'killer' checks?

texts: Does accuracy affect in-hand weapon sway or just how accurate bullets are?

texts:
I've noticed there's two major factors that affect my accuracy; random spread of bullets after the leave the barrel, and the character physically swaying their weapon. Some weapons (notably SMGs) sway so much it's painful to operate them zoomed. Is this a function of accuracy or is weapon sway one of the hidden weapon stats? I can deal with inaccurate bullets (I use SMGs) but inaccurate aiming drives me insane.

I'm not talking about recoil (unless the stats are related), guns do this when aiming before firing as well.

If a gun has low accuracy, will it sway? If a gun sways, will it always have low "post barrel" accuracy as well?


texts:
I made a sonic map in 1.12 commands, and I'm now trying to transfer it to 1.13 commands instead.

I'm trying to detect how many blocks were affected by the command that was run (previously "/stats") by using the new /execute store result. As you can see, it didn't work cause the "test" scoreboard shows 84 instead of 18.

What I'm thinking is that it's adding the time to the scoreboard as well. I've tried looking up solutions on the wiki, youtube, etc.

But can't wrap my head around how it works!

I would appreciate it if someone talented at commands could help me.

there is a system that collects gold with execute as @a [x=666704,dx=138,y=44,dy=23,z=981,dz=12] at @s run fill ~1 ~1 ~1 ~-1 ~-1 ~-1 air replace gold_block problem is, it can remove 2 gold blocks though getting only 1 gold ingot. That's why I want to get the input from the command and store the result on a scoreboard. Referring to what MegaCrafter10 said, I tested his command(execute store result score <player> <objective> run fill <x> <y> <z> <x2> <y2> <z2> <block>
) and I found another problem, It sets back to 0 every time there is no output(it's in a repeating command block). Would it be able to store how many blocks of gold it has filled away without it being reset? Instead, rising higher by 1 for each gold?


texts:
I think I understand what aggro means in the context of an MMO and explicitly in World of Warcraft. Arqade even has a good answer to What does "Aggro" mean?

What I am not understanding from the aforementioned links is how the term applies to an aggro deck in Hearthstone. Is an aggro deck:

a deck which is aggressive towards attacking the opposing hero?
a deck that aggravates the opposing hero by forcing them to attack minions instead of your hero?

I am probably reading too much into the use of the term, but each time I see aggro deck I am not sure what is being described.


texts: Setting choices without playing the previous games

texts:
I've played the first The Witcher some time ago now and I remember it already felt dated when I played it.
I never finished it but I did make almost to the end and I eventualoly watched a long play to know how the story ended.

I'm interested in experiencing the whole trilogy and carrying the choices from game to game but since the first game will feel extremely dated to me and will probably be just an annoying grind at this point (since I've played most of it once) I'm wondering if there's a way to simply set the key choices from the first game to the second.

Is there an official way to set these choices or will I have to somehow create a save file to import to The Witcher 2?
How about setting choices from the first 2 games in The Witcher 3?

texts: Minecraft Command Blocks, using /data string values within other commands

texts:
In Minecraft I'm able to determine the id of the first item in a chest with the following command:

/data get block <chest coordinates> Items[0].id

which returns the id as string value. For example if the chest contained stone, the value returned would be "minecraft:stone". I'd like to used this returned value in other commands

For instance you can set an area to be stone with the command:

/fill <start coordinates> <end coorinates> minecraft:stone

What I'd like to do is something to the effect of:

/fill <start coordinates> <end coorinates> run data get block <chest coordinates> Items[0].id

but this doesn't work. I assume I just have the syntax wrong, but I can't find anything online to give me any guidance.

TLDR: Is there a way to use string values derived from a /data command, in other commands?

texts: Moving player before actually loading the map? (not being admin of the server)

texts:
By accident, I destroyed several full double-chests at once on a multiplayer Minecraft server.

The server immediately crashed due to (probably) the large amount of items. It restarts automatically, but on my next attempt to connect, it immediately crashes again.  I can see other players (out of sight, i.e. they don't load the chunk where it happened) logging in and playing without problem.

The problem is: I can't contact the owner of the server, as he seems to be on vacation, and I have no way to connect the others. He would be able to solve my mess by mcedit or similar tools.

Is there any way to solve this problem from my side? I think of moving my player somewhere else on the map, or even moving it into the Nether before actually logging in (and loading the chunks)?

May be any other solution?

Is there any way to skip the cutscenes in XCOM:EU? If it matters, I'm on the PC; I imagine the consoles cutscenes double as load screens, but my PC is fast enough it shouldn't be that big an issue.

texts: Does having more players on run your computer harder?

texts:
So I've had this Minecraft server for a long time that I just play on with friends using Hamachi. I've always used the free version of Hamachi, which only allows up to 5 players to be in the group, but I am considering buying the large version of it which can have up to 30 people. This would allow me to have more people on the server at once.

So my question is, does having more people on my Minecraft server use more of my computer power? Whenever I have my server up, my computer fan is running like crazy and it makes other games lag and stuff run slow because of all the energy it is using, so if I have more people actually on the server will it run my computer any harder?

Note: This is just a simple vanilla Minecraft server that you can download from Minecraft.net No Bukkit or anything.

How much Ore do I need to obtain 525 Jewel Crafting?

Unlike obtaining 525 Mining or Blacksmithing, this isn't a straight forward question. Not every 5 ore prospected yield the correct gems, not every gem cut gives you a skill up.  So a proper answer to this question requires more than a single list, it requires... Maths.

Minimum amount of ore required (easy)
Statistically Average amount of ore required (more difficult)
90% percentile amount of ore required (FUN!)

I consider an answer which provide numbers for all 3: correct.


texts: Dropping money as a soft-core character in Terraria on PvP death

texts:
I made a PvP map for Terraria. The rules for the match use money for scoring, so I was hoping that players could have softcore characters and drop half their money whenever they die. Unfortunately, it turns out that whenever players die from PvP, they don't drop any money, making the rules not work.

Is there a mod or some kind of setting anywhere that changes this? If not, how can I make a mod to do this? I'm a competent programmer, so I'm willing to get my hands dirty. I know I could look up a tutorial pretty easily, but I suspect most of them deal with how to make new types of enemies and items. Is there a good tutorial on changing the rules for multiplayer matches?

texts: Can a PUBG match end in a draw or 2 chicken dinners?

texts:
I was playing Player Unknown Battlegrounds a few nights ago and I made it to the top 2 when the circle completely closed.  I couldn't find the remaining player as half the circle landed on a 3 story building. Once the circle completely closed, I immediately started using bandages to try to survive longer than the last person, but I ended up taking 2nd (out of playzone).  This then sparked the question - Can a match end in a tie ?

If we both didn't use bandages and we were both killed at the same time by being out of the playzone, what determines the winner?

I added the xbox-one tag as I know the PC PUBG is on a different version, but unsure of the differences.

texts: Origin not opening, and crashing after games close

texts:
Recently I was playing Titan Fall 2 and saw it was late and closed it to go to bed. As I was shutting off my computer I saw an error message from Origin asking to restart or quit it. As it was late I quit it thinking nothing of it.

In the morning I went to re-open Origin and the same error message popped up. Hitting restart brought up the same error message. Thankfully I had the game's shortcut on my desktop and it opened just fine, with the Origin browser use button prompt popping up (I have not tried using it).

But when I close the game it still pops up the Origin error message. I have some games I don't have a shortcut for, and since I can't get into Origin, is there any way to play them? Also: is there a fix for this?

texts:
Here's the situation:

I finished Cass's quest (Heartache by the Numbers) peacefully, with stealth. I was not caught by the Crimson Caravan nor the Van Graffs with my sneaking around for their secrets, and Cass and I reported them both to NCR.
I am idolized by both NCR and (I'm not sure how this happened) Crimson Caravan.

I popped into Freeside to go looking for Rex, because I thought I needed him for Jimmy's Well (oops, didn't), and the Silver Rush Crier started shooting at me. I took him down, and as I approached the Atomic Wrangler, a bunch of Van Graff thugs appeared outside the Silver Rush. I dispatched them, went inside, and Gloria, Jean-Baptiste and their thugs were all trying to kill me. Well, being an NCR guy (erm, this run) through and through, I wiped them all out.

But my question is why. They didn't catch me when I was stealthy (I was using a stealth boy and showed [HIDDEN] the entire time), they didn't catch me stealing (why not, I was using a stealth boy already), and I got away clean with Cass. So why were they hostile the next time I entered Freeside?

texts: Why do I keep losing weapons in GTA V online when I save?

texts:
So a regular session will go like this:
- log in to the multiplayer world and examine my weak arsenal of 3 different pistols + 2 shotties + a baseball bat.
- start a gang war or survival mission and pick up some decent guns. Usually end up with Carbine Rifle + SMG + Micro SMG.
- enjoy playing GTAV online for a while.
- quit back to story mode to save, either by selecting Michael, Trevor or Francis - or by selecting the option in the Online menu.
- start another online session the next day - aaaand back to step 1. Where is my Carbine/SMG/etc??????

I initially supposed this was due to me not saving correctly, and then I thought maybe it was some undocumented "feature" where you can't keep weapons until you get to a certain level. I can't find any mention of such a thing in the Rockstar Social Club GTA online guide. I found this link which supposedly lists when weapons get unlocked, but I'm level 43 and I'm still stuck with a Combat Pistol as my best default weapon.

How do I keep my weapons?


texts: Is the new Feast mastery more impactful than Double Edged Sword?

texts:
I was fixing up my mastery pages, and I stumbled upon the Feast mastery. At first, I ignored this mastery, as I felt that it was essentially useless.

Whereas Double Edged Sword, seems infinitely more useful and can have a large impact on the game, despite the increased damage taken.

In summary, is 20 health every 25 seconds actually useful on specific champions, or does dealing extra damage, but taking additional damage pose more of an impact on the the game?

texts:
Lately I've been noticing that my ps3 has been acting weird. At times, when I turn it on from an off position, I hear the beep that it normally gives you when turning it on....but then after a brief pause I hear a "beep beep beep", then it shuts off and the red light keeps blinking.

I have to then manually, turn it off, restart it and the it goes through like normal.

My First question is, What's happening?

Second, I'm almost positive I'm gonna get rid of this and probably get another one.
The Second question is, well, I have a 320GB hard drive in there with a lot of stuff on it, when i get a new ps3, can I just swap it out and put it in the new ps3 and it be working or


texts:
In this answer I read the following:

  As a side note, if you stay in the same area for a while, the ground appears to slowly turn grey and patchy. From my observations, these are 'dry areas'. They show up if you are in the area for a long time, and Pokemon generally do not spawn when you are standing on them.

Is there any more information about these 'dry areas'? I've been using the occasional incense at home when I want to catch Pokemon at night, and now that I've read about this I can say that area is beginning to look browner than the surrounding area. Is this making it harder for me to catch Pokemon around my apartment building? And if so, how pronounced is this effect and how long does it last?

texts:
In my survival world in Minecraft, I built a compass. It was working fine, but when the 1.9 update arrived it started acting haywire! It doesn't point to my spawn point OR my bed. When I followed it to where it was pointing, I ended up in the middle of nowhere. (I know it wasn't my spawn point because my spawn point was next to a mushroom tree and I built a house around it.)

I used my compass a lot! Why doesn't it work anymore?

No mods are being used, not on a server, just a regular vanilla single player world.

Is there a way to do this, and how?


texts: Minecraft Pocket Edition Realms cross-play with PC or Mac?

texts:
Minecraft noob here and I have several questions regarding pocket edition and realms. I'm interested in purchasing Realms for me and my two kids who know much more about Minecraft than I do but they have never used realms.

The oldest plays PC Minecraft but also has an iMac he could use, the youngest uses Pocket Edition on a tablet while I have a Macs. Both of them like Android and I have iPhone. Looking at the purchase page for Realms it's asking me to choose between iOS/Android or Mac/PC. So does this mean we're limited to our options here? My youngest doesn't have the skillset yet to do anything with computers so that would mean the rest of us would be limited to Pocket Edition as well? I'd like to be able to play on the Mac/PC when available and then pick up a phone at some other time on the go and play in the same world. Possible?
What is the world size on Pocket Edition Realms? I tried searching for it but can only find info on PC Realms.
Can you change the Realm type later? Ie if I do go with Pocket Edition realms can I change it to PC/Mac later on? I'm asking because I'm assuming the answer to #1 above is going to be segregated from PC and mobile realms.

texts: Are games on Steam already up to date after the initial download?

texts:
I am busy downloading Witcher 3 now, and will probably be done in about a day and a half's time (slow connection here...).

I would just like to know: Will I still need to download the updates after I have downloaded the game, or does the initial download include the updates?

Steam shows the total download size is about 30.5 GB for me. Read on forums that download size was about 22.9 GB when the game came out. So that most probably means that patches, etc. are included in the current download. If anyone can confirm this, I would be grateful.

I'm asking because I had a bad experience with The Elder scrolls online, where the updates that I still needed to download were about half the size of the initial download (which was about 40 - 50 gigs IIRC).

UPDATE:

Finished downloading the game. It includes the latest patch, i.e. I did not have to download any additional patches to be able to play the game.

texts: How to prevent being stunned by the first form of Vol Opt?

texts:
(PSO Episode I & II on GameCube, offline multiplayer)

When fighting the first form of Vol Opt (boss of the Mine), we often get paralyzed/stunned by some kind of lightning (Gizonde?). This effect can’t be removed with Antiparalysis, so we have to wait until it’s over. Unfortunately, it seems that this can happen several times in a row: while still being stunned, another lightning seems to extend the effect, or often there is only a small time frame where we can place one attack at most until we get stunned again. The last two times we fought this first form, we were so often stunned that it was really annoying.

I wonder what to do about it? What exactly is triggering this lightning, and how can we prevent it?

Maybe it has to do with the order in which to attack the various parts?

The screens (which can be destroyed while the boss is showing up)
The thing hanging from the ceiling (which can be shot until it falls down)
The pillars that sometimes show up, one of them glowing red

texts: Will my parachute fail if I'm going too fast when I deploy it?

texts:
I was going to put a whole back-story for this question here, but thought it'd be better as a Google+ post instead, for reasons that should be obvious to anyone who reads it.

So, during high velocity returns, is there a chance that a parachute will fail if the capsule is travelling too fast when it's deployed?  If so, what's the optimal speed/altitude range for deployment?

If speed is not the cause of these failures, what is, and how can I mitigate it?

I should also say that I'm using Mechanical Jeb.  For reasons explained in this question, I now always bring the MechJeb unit back with me.  In the case of the most recent failure, the MechJeb unit was positioned between the capsule and the parachute, something that had worked for me before.  But for my rendezvous mission, I used one of the radial mount options, keeping the (proper sized) parachute connected to the top of the capsule.

texts:
I've always been fascinated by naval warfare - particularly old-style, age-of-sail naval warfare fought with cannon, shot and sword (or arrows, rams, and spears as the era allows). This was one of the big draws for me towards Empire: Total War, the chance to finally control some of those battles that I've always had to just heavily-outnumber-and-autocalc before.

However this is posing a problem for me. After several attempts I finally found that in order to win reliably you have to either outweigh your foe, or use broadsides; the latter requires insane levels of micromanagement. And even then, a superior ship or superior numbers almost always wins anyways. On land I can win some pretty absurd battles through careful deployment and cavalry charges to the flank (works like a charm); no such luck at sea. And the auto-calc function causes me to suffer terrible losses, on the order of 3/7 ships, plus damage to the rest, to sink 1 of 2 and drive the other off, despite the individual ships being equivalent.

Is there a trick to winning naval engagements and controlling the seas? It's becoming quite a problem - there's a rather large fleet that keeps sailing up and down my coast, wrecking my shipyards, blockading my shipping routes, and playing absolute havoc with my economy. I'd like them gone. (As an aside, is there a way to deal with such fleets without directly confronting them?)

Has anyone tried using a touch screen monitor with CoD:BO? Is it possible? How does it compare with using a mouse? Does it turn the game into a bit of a whack-a-mole kind of game, constantly just trying to poke enemies that you see on the screen?

I imagine that it would be difficult because you've now tied up an entire hand with just aiming (and possibly pulling the trigger). On my mouse I have enough buttons to aim, shoot, grenade, knife, ADS, and switch weapons. I don't know how you could manage all of that with a touch screen set-up. Or could you play "bare bones", basically trading off the ability to grenade, switch weapons, ADS, and knife so that you would only be shooting but be able to use the touch screen for that.

If anyone has experience doing this with other FPSs I'd be interested in hearing about that as well. I don't plan on actually trying this set-up, but I am curious if others out there are doing it.


texts: Can baby villagers with food in their inventory break villager breeders?

texts:
One flaw I have in my villager breeder is that sometimes as they're passing around carrots, 1-64 carrot(s) falls below them to where baby villagers are transported away by a water stream. The carrots flow right into where baby villagers wait to become an adult, and I heard baby villagers can pick up crops as well.

If that's true, can the baby villagers mess up the way the breeder works? Will baby villagers give other baby villagers carrots?

texts: What is a quick way to farm demon skin on lvl 70?

texts: I found a set plan today, which requires Demon Skin as an ingredient. I was trying to look it up on Battle.Net, but there seems to be no page for that material and most stuff I found on the internet was outdated. So what is the best and quickest way to farm Demon Skins? Does it drop in a specific place or is it just random? I never seen that one at all.


texts: Was I supposed to get something extra for my first store purchase?

texts:
I did a purchase from the Dota 2 Store (online) today and got a cheap set ("Custom of Karroch Set" for Beastmaster for 1.50tl (0.75$/0.5$)).

This comment states that I had to get something else ("Wicked Bad Voodoo Set" (it costs more than my purchase lol)) as an extra, but I only got the set.

Is the extra-for-first-purchase still working? Or is it a bug that I didn't get the items?

Note: I own Dota 2 since the beta, so I have the Premium DLC from the beginning, and I think that not getting the extra stuff can be a bug.


texts: In a multiplayer game, does dying during a boss fight prevent you from getting loot?

texts:
Possible duplicate question.

I was in a game with 2 other people and during the fight, one of them died. We ended up killing the boss, and then the person that died clicked the resurrect button to come back alive. However, she didn't receive any of the loot that the boss dropped. Is this normal? If someone dies during a boss fight, do they forfeit the right to the loot once the boss dies?


texts: Why aren't Minecraft datapack functions being registered?

texts:
I am writing a datapack to allow endgame items that work sort of like guns, because creepers are annoying. The following code is in a function, but I can't find it with /function in game. I have other functions in the same file which are registering, so is there anything about the contents of the function which would disqualify it? The function only disappears when I edit it and then /reload the world, and when moving the datapack to another world which it has never been in and not editing it, just straightaway doing /reload and /function, it is still not present in the function list, and the function is not found when I manually type it in.

execute as @e[type=item,nbt={Item:{id:"minecraft:gunpowder",Count:64b}}] at @e[type=item,nbt={Item:{id:"minecraft:gunpowder",Count:64b}}] run summon minecraft:lightning_bolt ~ ~ ~
kill @e[type=item,nbt={Item:{id:"minecraft:iron_sword"}}]
kill @e[type=item,nbt={Item:{id:"minecraft:nether_star", Count:4b}}]
kill @e[type=item,nbt={Item:{id:"minecraft:gunpowder", Count:64b}}]
give @p minecraft:carrot_on_a_stick{Enchantments:[{id:"minecraft:infinity",lvl:1}],Unbreakable:1,display:{Name:"{\"text\":\"Shotgun\"}",Lore:["Pchow"]}} 1

The function is being run as @p (the closest player to the stack of gunpowder on the ground), and when I run the commands individually they all work.

texts: "ench" NBT tag doesn't work in Minecraft 1.13

texts:
I want to get a bow with a top-level Power enchantment. A command similar to this worked before:

/give @p minecraft:bow{ench:[{id:48,lvl:32767}]}

...But not in 1.13. Changing the ID to power didn't work either:

/give @p minecraft:bow{ench:[{id:power,lvl:32767}]}

It just gave an ordinary, unenchanted bow. Quotes didn't change anything either:

/give @p minecraft:bow{ench:[{id:"power",lvl:32767}]}

I don't know what to do with the command format being changed in 1.13. Does anyone know how to fix the ench NBT tag?

texts:
I usually reload my last saves and missions while I'm trying to get all the Hard achievements in my SC2 campaign. I just updated to the latest patch today but when I tried to load my game, it said that I will have to disconnect from Battle.net and restart with the old SC2 installed.

It was totally weird, so I just shrugged and clicked yes. It then quit, then reloaded again but this time, there was no login and it auto loaded the save file. It loaded correctly, but I was not connected to Battle.net anymore and I can't open my achievements tab.

Does this mean I have to start the campaign all over again?

texts: Map a key to switch between my favorite weapons for each class?

texts:
Is there some way to map a key so that it switches between my favorite weapons for each class?

I haven't played much Team Fortress 2 yet, but for most of the classes I use one or two weapons. I often use "q" to easily switch between these weapons, but by default "q" switches between the weapons mapped to the keys 1 and 2. Is it possible to configure a button so that it will always switch between my favorite weapons? For example, it could switch between flamethrower and axe for Pyro and pistol and cloaking for Spy.

Update: My motivation is that I, when I die, have to remember to switch between my favorite weapons. If I don't I find myself in a situation where I switch to the wrong weapon causing me to die way to many times...

texts:
Let's imagine you are playing Terran vs Protoss. You have around 7-9 rax, few with reactors, others with tech labs. Your opponent has army that consists mainly of zealots and high templars...

and you need to build you stuff right now. What is the best way to do that?

Option A: press 'D' 5-6 times, and after that 'A' 5-6 times? This way you will receive required amount of marines + marauders. But (at least for me) that takes some time.

Option B: press 'D' for few seconds and after that 'A' for the same time. This way you will receive pretty similar amount of units and it will be quicker, but that won't be as precise as with option A.

What is the best way to order troops when you have A LOT of buildings? Should I go with option "B" or practice "A" but make it quicker?

Do you see any other better way?

Thank you.

P.S. I'm interested in terran race suggestions, but others would be useful too.

texts: What happens when I share duplicate perks?

texts:
In the new fallout 76 game its possible to share perks with your teammates. As taken from an interview with developers:

  Sharing perks

  Once you put at least three points in Charisma, you'll have the
  opportunity to share active perks with the rest of your team. As long
  as your Charisma is three times the point cost of a perk card (for
  example, Rank 1 of Green Thumb costs 1 point, so you could share it
  with 3 Charisma. Rank 2 costs 2 points, so you would need 6 Charisma,
  and so on) you'll be able to let your team reap the benefits of your
  card, and use it to plan effective strategies to synergize available
  perks.

What would happen when I, for example, take a perk like "Shotgunner". Which at level 3 adds 20% to my damage done with shotguns. Let's suppose I'm playing in a 4 man squad, I convince everybody to get level 3 shotgunner and to share that perk with the team. Would those effects stack? Would the entire party now deal + 80% damage with shotguns? If this stacking of perk cards is allowed how would that be calculated?

Let's say I have a shotgun that has a base damage (without perk card) of 100. I slap on my own perk card that increases its damage from 100 to 120. If my teammates share their own perk card would that stack on to the base damage of my shotgun? So + 4*20%? The way I see it (all assuming the cards stack) are as follows:

100 Base damage + 80% of all perk cards -> 180 damage

100 Base damage + 20% for my perk card -> 120 damage + 60% for shared perk cards -> 192 damage

100 Base damage + 20% for my perk card -> 120 damage + 20% -> 144 damage + 20% -> 172.8 damage + 20% -> 207.36 damage

Tldr: Is it possible to stack multiple perk cards when shared with your team and if so how does the calculation of the stacked bonuses work?

texts:
I recently helped my friend install Minecraft Java Edition on his Chromebook using the Google supported linux beta (which is Linux Debian).

He can make a singleplayer world, and it works just fine. He can also start a LAN game which I am able to join.

However, he cannot connect to any Minecraft servers. I tried making my own
 server and a client using UDP Sockets in Java (this is only to provide context) and my friend couldn't join my games (via LAN), but I could join his.

Same thing occurs in Minecraft. I can join his LAN worlds, but he cannot join any servers/worlds.

He is using the default JDK, which is Open-JDK 11, if that helps.

I have tried making him uninstall java, I have tried making him install java 8 with sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk instead of the default-jdk, but it said "Unable to open package". I'm not even sure if this is java's fault. It can possibly be his firewall.

To provide more context, he is using Optifine, and he has tried both Minecraft 1.8.9 and 1.14.4 without success.

When he joins, Minecraft shows this error message:

Internal Execption: java.lang.RuntimeExecption: Unable to access address of buffer

What is the problem, and how can I fix this?

texts: Can you downgrade Minecraft Pocket Edition?

I have Minecraft Pi version on my Raspberry Pi and I wanted to be able to play with people on MC:PE. However, when I go to connect the device to the Pi's server it says Outdated Server!

I know that you can connect MC:PE and MC:Pi, they are both based off MC:PE code and I've read all over the place of people doing it! However, my PE version is 0.8 and that isn't compatible with MC:Pi 0.11, whereas MC:PE version 0.6 is.

My question is, is there a way to downgrade the MC:PE version without messing up worlds and being able to revert back to MC:PE 0.8 after playing with my Pi?

I figured this question would be more on-topic here than Raspberry Pi SE because it is an issue with MC:PE as opposed to the RPi.

I ask that as a main ADC/jungler player, that wants to combine both for once !

NBT editor bukkit plugins (Hopefully ones that work with Permissions EX)
Achievement Plugins
Bungee suit/Essential

Also, our server runs on MySQL and I am trying to find plugins that work with that.

An update: I've since traded in the game. It just irritated the hell out of me towards the end. Thanks to those with suggestions! I was hoping there would be a non grindy solution -_-

Currently playing Dragon Quest IX and I want to level up some characters quickly as I'm at the Gittish castle (just beat Hootingham). My main is 35, the others are 31. I looked up the Priest class and they get multi heal at 38 which made me groan that I would have to grind 7 levels :(

I know that I can go hunt metal slimes etc but they are so freaking rare (or they run away) it is making for an overly grindy experience which is becoming frustrating :(

Would appreciate any pointers on other ways to level up (if there are).

Thanks :)

texts: Where are all the legacy justice / honor vendors?

texts:
Since I've played only BC and MoP, I haven't been able to get nice-looking sets for transmogrification. Recently I discovered that there are more set vendors ("Legacy" Vendors) than the ones in Stormwind or Orgrimmar.

The known vendors I know are:

Stormwind (Honor and Justice Vendors, Champion's Hall and SI:7)
Tanaris (Honor Vendor, several PVP sets, up to Relentless)
The Argent Tournament Grounds (Justice Vendor, only 1 set)
Dalaran (Justice Vendors, some PVP sets for Justice, Tier Tokens, Heirlooms)
Isle of Quel'danas (Honor and Justice Vendors, some PVP sets)

There must be other legacy vendors that can give you some sets for transmogging for either honor or justice. Do you know the location of the remaining ones?

texts: Is the Hallow & Crimson/Corruption "V" random or predetermined?

texts:
When you enter hard mode your world gets two streaks of Hallow and Crimson or Corruption, depending on what it had before. These generally stripe down at an angle and meet under center of the map but can be offset, apparently controlled a bit by where the Wall of Flesh is defeated.

All of the information I could find said that which side got which biome stripe was random. This however does not seem to be the case from my findings and I could find no information that wasn't already 2-3 years old.

So, is this still random? I am up to 37 resets and the only thing I can change seems to be where the Crimson starts but it is always to the right leaving me nearly no surface Hallow on the left of my map (which is why I am going back to try and reset it.)

To address comment conversations below. I am now up to 58 resets on the same world attempting to get the Hallow and Crimson spawns to swap places on my world. What I am looking for is someone with Terraria v1.3.5.3 to have the same world with both configurations of the hardmode V spawn, hallow on left and right. For testing my world seed is: 1486978588 and is a large world, a post about the contents of the world may be found here

texts: What is the signifigance of Drones being recognized as life forms?

texts:
Why is it that my Slug crewmembers count drones as lifeforms when showing the position of enemies using their telepathic abilities? Whenever I have no sensors or only one rank of sensors (or they are damaged, whatever) I can locate all enemies as they move about either ship as red dots, this being the unique utility of the Slug race while in combat.

I also however see drones that operate onboard the ship in this manner, this doesn't seem right as they are clearly inorganic, they have no brain waves. Unlike the crew races (Even if they aren't too far removed from Engi) they do not take fire (I know Rockmen exist) or oxygen damage and what should be the dividing factor the 'Anti-Bio Beam' doesn't affect them. This can be annoying and often a repair drone will make me target my Bio Beam at the wrong target prolonging a fight and possibly making me pay an extra couple of hull damage or losing the enemy ship through fleeing or fire damage.

Is this an oversight or bug? Is it supposed to help players from a gameplay perspective,
allowing them to see what the enemy has with Slugs instead of sensors? Is there some lore reason?

How can I avoid this issue of beaming or setting fire to these mechanised-brain-owners, am I forced to upgrade sensors to level 2 even though the Slug ships seem to leave this out on purpose?

Does anyone know, when the players get new conracts? Could it be weekly or something?


texts: Do Upgrades to "Power Bonus" affect an Engineers Drone?

texts:
You can get a lot of upgrades in ME3 that give a "Power Bonus". Since I kinda see the Drone as a "Power", I would assume the stats of the spawned Drone get a Bonus if you stack power?
But since you cannot actually see it, I can only guess. So, does someone know for sure?

I just got an axe with Fortune III from an enchantment table, but couldn't figure out what would actually yield more drops from it.
Is there actually a use for a fortune axe?


texts: Unable to connect to authentication servers on debian vps

texts: I am currently hosting a server on a VPS running debian and when I try to connect to the server my client gets an error saying the authentication servers are down, and the server displays an error saying it is unable to connect to the authentication servers. I have checked the status of the servers and Mojang says they are up and running. I suspect it has something to do with the fact it is a vps and i need to add the authentication servers to a file somewhere in the OS to allow the server to connect I am just unsure where and how.


texts: What are some tips on killing the giant fish boss, "Del Lago"?

texts:
The Del Lago is a very fast and sneaky boss. The main problem is the terrain. You are stuck inside a boat, in the middle of a lake, with nothing but harpoons.

How do you overcome this obstacle?


texts: What might I get if I craft coal together?

texts: Where can I find the key I discovered in the bathtub in the girl's bathroom?

texts: In Silent Hill Origins for the PSP, I got up to the part where you are in a hospital that the nice nurse was assigned to go have a meeting with a man (that you meet earlier in the game). I went to the girl's restroom, and I drained the water in the bathtub. Unfortunately, the key went down the drain with the water. Where do I go to obtain the key? And after I get the key, where do I use it?


texts:
I was trying to play Mirror's Edge on my new Win 10 Laptop with
1. i5 6200 2.3 GHz
2. 4 GB GeForce 940M
3. 8 GB RAM
The game was running on highest settings, res 1366x768.

The game runs just fine, until there is a chase, and then the game goes extremely choppy, its like tearing between the frames, but I have vsync on, the game seems to run smoothly, maybe some frames get skipped or something like that. I can run FIFA 13, NFS Most Wanted 2012 edition, Dead Island and Assassin's creed on highest settings without any problems. Also my PC specs are well above the required ones so theoretically it should run fine.

Is it some problem with the game or with my PC?


texts: Why build a large spaceship when a small one will do?

texts:
If I am aiming for a space victory, why should I build a large spaceship when I can build a small one instead? A small spaceship has three advantages over a large spaceship:

It takes less time to build.
It takes less resources to build.
It has a shorter travel time to Alpha Centauri.

This is a large spaceship:

Why should I build a large spaceship when the small spaceship below has a shorter travel time?


texts: Yoshi's Wooly World and Wii Remote classic

texts:
I've just bought the game and I am unable to use the Wii remote as a playable controller.

The Wii Remote is properly synced with the Wii U (I am call the home menu and such), however on the controller selection screen, the Wii Remote is totally unresponsive.

I am very sad...

Did I miss anything?
