texts: How do I get across the quicksand in the northwest cave of the Lanayru Mines?

texts:
I'm stuck in the Lanayru mine.  I've gotten to the northwest cave, across the large lake of quicksand.  There's a locked door, and a mining cart I can't push anywhere.  To my left is a quicksand-filled tunnel that seems to be the only place I can go:

I've tried running across.  I've tried rolling across.  I've gone back to the start of the mine and triggered the time crystal in the basin, hoping it would reach this portion of the cave.  None of that worked.

Where do I go from here? Is there a way across this quicksand?  Or do I need to go somewhere else?


texts: minecraft java edition 1.13 player join detector?

texts: I am working on a game that uses commands in such a way that players disconnecting then reconnecting could break the commands. I was wondering if there is a way to detect when players join the game in 1.13.2 and run a command to give them an item. When I researched this, I found solutions for older versions using /testfor or stat.leaveGame, but those seem to be outdated in 1.13. If someone could show me the commands to use as well as the layout for command blocks/redstone that would be great. It can be for the second time they join only, or for all times that they do. Thanks


texts:
I am setting up different means of transportation on our server. Right now I'm building an airship with four cabins. In each cabin is a bed. The idea is that each room has a different destination and when you sleep in the bed it teleports you to the same room in a duplicate of that airship at the destination area (to make it like you're really travelling in the ship).

I tried teleporting a sleeping player (using {Sleeping:1b}) but the sleeping animation continued and then moved the player back to the original bed. I corrected this by destroying the bed before teleporting and that fixed it however now I have another issue resulting from that. I replace the bed with /setblock and it only places the foot of the bed.

How can I use a command block to replace the bed so that both the foot and head of the bed are present?

texts: What's the easiest way to build down into water?

texts:
I'm building waaaaaaay down into the ground.  Specifically, I'm making a structure that will function as a subterranean house.  So far I've not ran directly into any water but I've past by some lakes. Eventually I'm going to need to dig into water and I was curious if there was a way to easily build down into water without creating a pool in my underground lair.

I tried to do an experiment by putting a bunch of stone within a pond and then hollowing out the stone.  That didn't work.  When I removed the middle-stones, the blocks were filled with water.

I'm quite new to Terraria and it seems that moving water from one location to another is tedious.  Is there a way to build down into it, so I don't have to move it... just build through it?

texts: At what age will a person pass on in Virtual Families 2?

texts:
I was re-entering my game because I was playing another app, but when it loaded a notification popped up saying that my Mother had turned 45 and, sure enough, her hair had turned gray.

The mother is one year older than the father so I fear that they will both pass on soon leaving the children by themselves.

Basically my question is: At what age do your people go to the grave?

Both of the parents are perfectly healthy ( so are the kids ) so I am assuming they will go of old age, so I want to know the regular death age instead of an early death age.

If they end up passing on by tommorow ( in real life ) can my 17 year old daughter watch over the kids, or will it turn out bad because she doesn't have a job yet?

Thanks for reading and/or responding.

texts: Can't connect to Minecraft Bedrock server from WAN

texts:
This question is all over the place, but I have found no answers to help me solve it!

I set up a Minecraft Bedrock server (version 1.14.32.1) on an Ubuntu 18.04 VM running on VirtualBox (hosted on my Windows 10 desktop), and have forwarded UDP port 19132 in my router to the VM. (Note: ufw is currently disabled in Ubuntu).

I can happily connect to it from within the LAN (ie. from my Windows 10 computer, using the LAN IP of the server), but any attempt to connect to it via my public IP address fails with the usual 'Unable to connect to world' error message.

Running tcpdump on the VM and watching UDP port 19132, I can see a steady trickle of packets reaching the VM while I have the Minecraft app open and am in the Servers list with my server added at the bottom (using the public rather than private IP), indicating the client is polling the server. The client shows the server as offline though. Similarly, when I try to connect, I see an increased flow of packets arriving and yet no connection. I know my port forwarding is set up correctly (according to the instructions provided), but still no joy.

To be certain, I have also tried connecting to the server using an iPad outside the LAN - no dice.

Most interesting clue I have found so far was the commentary in this bug report: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/BDS-85

Per the comments there, I tried creating a 'minecraft' user with home directory /opt/minecraft and running the server from there. Sadly, this had no impact.

UPDATE: I have also tried running the server directly on my Windows 10 host now also. Same behaviour results here also (with router port forwarding rule updated to the new host IP).

texts: Is avalanche much better than earthquake?

texts:
Damage is the same 4400 %

Cooldown of avalanche is much better.

Also you can cast avalanche far, but not earthquake.

Yet I somehow feel that earthquake hurt enemies more. My barb has 250k dps and  earthquake sort of kill a 40 million HP monster.

Not avalanche.

Am I missing something?

I am thinking avalanche 4400% rune and earthquake molten furry, 4500%

They both have roughly the same damage yet vastly different cooldown. Also earthquake molen furry seems to hit harder.

I run back up to the roof and the enemy is nowhere to be found. Neither is Logan's Scroll.

My only idea is that he fell off the building. I don't have any poison weapons so he didn't die due to an effect.

I've searched everywhere. On the roof, the room below, and the ground. Nowhere is the scroll to be found?

My whole run is based on getting that scroll and I've put in over 50 hours. Did I just F- up everything?

texts: Which order do I play the Civilization IV expansion packs and the main game?

texts:
I bought Civilization IV and all 3 expansion packs from the Steam Sale. I've heard numerous things about the packs - new units, civilizations, etc. I have no idea what that means since I'm new to the series. :)

I have 4 games listed on my Steam, excluding duplicates: Civ IV, Civ IV: Beyond the Sword, Civ IV: Colonization, and Civ IV: Warlords.

Can I just play Civ IV and access all the content from there? Or will I jsut be able to play the vanilla game without any of the expansions?

And I've heard that Colonization is a totally separate game..so would this need to be run separately? After a tiny bit of searching, I have found that Colonization is a standalone, separate game. However, my main question stands.

EDIT: It seems that Warlords scenarios are not included in BtS.


texts: What do pulsating gold quality stars mean?

texts:
If you look closely at the GIF (zoom in if needed), on the top right side of my inventory, there are two Summer Spangle flowers that are of gold quality.  But the gold stars are pulsating.  I've also seen this on some poppy flowers of gold quality.

The Wiki doesn't seem to note this anywhere.  When I harvested the spangles, I also received some silver quality ones, but those aren't pulsating like these ones.  What does it mean?

This isn't the case with all items.  Here is another GIF with a mixture of foraged and harvested items — all of which are gold quality.  Again, only the spangles are pulsating.

texts:
I'm new to Civ V but have played Civilization since the beginning.  I recently won my first prince level game as the Egyptians, beating England with a time victory.  From the onset, bankruptcy was my greatest threat.  I maintained a small enough army not to suck my treasury dry.   I built markets, banks, stock markets, several customs houses and spent most of the game with cities focused on gold and producing gold. Only the necessary roads were  built while the commerce policy tree offered little.   I won but had my cities been focused on production, my economy would have collapsed.  Once I invaded England and created puppet states, I built trading posts rather than farms without success.  In the earlier versions of Civ, advanced civilizations cranked out the gold even with huge millitaries and all city improvements built.   Civ V seems geared to bankrupt you.

Am I missing something big?  How do I avoid going bankrupt?

I appreciate everyone's help.  If cities aren't designed to build every improvement, that will take some getting used to.  I've started a new game and will try to specialize each city accordingly.  But one difference from previous Civs is the amount of gold received from trading resources.  My opponents have never offered a large GPT for anything.  This combined with diluted wonders is frustrating.

Is there anything in the game that directs you to the hylian shield? A quest that leads to it, or even just an NPC who says "I saw some fancy blue shield in this place"?

Note: I do not want to be told where the shield is. I want to be told where some hint pointing towards the shield is.

texts: Is there a way to shut off the comic relief voices in Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty?

texts:
I'm playing Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty on Steam. It's taken some liberties over the original game, some good and some not so much. There's one that's grating for me: the Sligs and Mudokons all have some idle comic relief commentary, and they'll mutter it constantly, stuff like:

  Slig: Ugh, when's lunch?
  Slig: Maybe I'll even get paid this month.
  Mudokon: Another day in the office...
  Mudokon: Employee of the month! Now I even have my own brush!

In the original, everyone was silent and there was a really oppressive atmosphere to Rupture Farms. Suffice to say this commentary is really atmosphere-breaking for me and is making it hard to fully enjoy the game.

Is there a way to shut off the commentary, and only the commentary?

The volume control for voices also controls gamespeak and cues like a Slig saying "what!?", and subtitles don't display these messages, so that in itself doesn't solve much.

However, there are no alien guns that I have found within the over 400 hours of total game play that I have. I keep looking for a gun with no results. Do I have to have the DLC to get any of this technology, or are they just really rare drops?

texts: How should I go about "reseting" a large arena?

texts:
For a minigame map I am making, I have a large (320*320*116) destructible arena. Players get explosives, blocks, etc. and the entire area can change. At the end of the match, I would like to restore the entire arena to its starting state, so another match can occur.

My old plan was simply to have a backup arena adjacent to the normal one, and then after a match had finished an ArmorStand would be teleported around, executing a /clone command with relative coordinates. The problem is that the clone command can only select a relatively tiny area, and takes quite a while for each execution. I estimated that I would need to /clone 400 times, and each time was taking 10 or so seconds.

Other than having the server reinstall the map each time, are there any more efficient ways I could regenerate the arena? Perhaps detecting only the chunk segments that need to be changed, or undoing each explosion somehow.

In combat I often find myself in the situation where I have prepared a spell to be cast, but my follower finishes off the last enemy before I can release it. I usually turn around and fire it off behind me to avoid hitting my follower, which is a bit silly and also wastes magicka.

Is there any way I can cancel the spell?


texts: Camera unresponsive in Witcher 2; how can I get it unstuck?

texts:
I'm playing the Prologue quest in Witcher 2 (via Steam). I've descended into the well, and drank the cat potion as the tutorial prompt suggested.

Everything went greyscale, I hear a heartbeat, and I see the red glowing outline of a human's skeleton/blood vessels in the distance, which I assume are the effects of this potion. Cool. So I'm walking around in the dungeon, and I drop down a hole in the floor to a lower level.

Suddenly my camera is stuck. I know the game itself isn't stuck because the potion countdown timer is still ticking. I still hear the heartbeat. I can see a dead body on the floor, and the red glowing outline is standing above it not moving.

I can still move Geralt around, but it's a little hard when the camera isn't following him. He can draw his sword and attack things (well, the air anyhow.) Attacking the red glowy person doesn't seem to help. According to the tutorial prompt, I can exit out of the potion's effect by meditating, but the ctrl hotkey that would allow me to access meditation appears to have no effect. Basically any command that would pop up a dialog or overlay isn't working -- inventory, character gen, journal, tutorial (tab), etc.

Thinking it might be a problem with the potion itself, I let the timer run out. The monochrome display effect disappeared, but my camera is still stuck. Turns out the red glowy thing was some sort of weird fish person -- I can't interact with them at all other than bump into them, and whacking them with a sword does nothing.

I can't quick save (F5 causes a message that says that I can't save here). There a really old thread on GoG that suggests reloading an old save, though the "stuck camera" described there doesn't quite match what I'm experiencing (they can't move at all; I can technically move I just can't see what I'm doing). I really don't want to lose my progress -- is there any solution to this other than finding a previous save that isn't bugged out?

I have no mods (does this game even have mods?) and this is my first play through. No customization of anything. Normal difficulty.


texts: Skyrim settings not saving. Forced into windows mode at 800x600

texts:
So I installed skyrim via steam and I adjusted the settings to be full screen and my native 1600x1200 resolution, and started the game, and it started in windowed mode 800x600.
I tried many times, and even tried restarting my computer.

I then tried to at least change bFullScreen to 1 in the settings file in the Skyrim folder.
This didn't work, leading me to believe the file is out-right being ignored.

Anyone else that has had this problem and has found a solution?

More specs:
gtx 470, uac is on low, compatibility options aren't explicitly turned on, it is being run as admin. fully updated Windows 7 is the OS. It is also very fresh install... I reformatted just yesterday.

texts: Clicking on minimap causes strange behavior

texts:
I had to reinstall broodwar on my dad's computer. The game has exhibited some very strange behaviors.

First of all, the game randomly minimizes when i click in the lower right corner.

Secondly, whenever I click on minimap, it doesn't go to the correct place. Instead, it takes me to the lowermost part.

I know this is the Starcraft 2 minimap but it shows perfectly what I'm trying to demonstrate. For example, when I would click in the middle of the map it would take me to the mid-bottom. If i clicked top right it would take me bottom right and so on.

Has anybody else ever experienced this??

I'm working on a desktop with a Windows 7. Turning off the Windows Explorer process does not help anything.


texts: Vanilla Minecraft - Detect various /trigger outputs

texts:
On multiplayer in Minecraft, I am trying to detect when a player changes their score using /trigger. Here's an example scenario:

I create a new objective called "test." Then, I use /scoreboard players enable @a test, which lets everyone modify the objective.
After which, I have a /tellraw command used on all players giving them four options to click. Each option corresponds to a different score the player gives themselves. For example, clicking on "test one" would make the player run /trigger test set 1, clicking on "test two" would make them run /trigger test set 2, and so on.

How would I be able to detect when a player set their objective to a specific number score, such as 3?


texts: What does Aphrodite's "Life Affirmation" boon actually do?

texts: The description of the Boon Life Affirmation reads: "Any (Heart) chamber rewards are worth more." But there's no type of chamber that just rewards you with a heal. There's the centaur hearts that give you max health, the treasure troves sometimes have healing in them, you can buy healing from the Well of Charon and then there's the food that drops sometimes. So which of these does Life Affirmation affect? And are there any others I've missed?

Should I advance them after my other soldiers have already acted and are on overwatch, to enable them to attack the aliens when they do their "we've spotted an enemy" movement?

texts: Is there a way to pinpoint the locations of the special enchanters?

texts:
In my first playthrough of the game, I started a notebook where I wrote down all the act numbers and dungeon names of all the special enchanter locations (Boris the Stout, etc) as I came upon them.  Now I am on my second playthrough and I am finding entirely differently enchanters or sometimes no enchanters at all.  I researched a bit and it appears that the locations of these special enchanters are completely random.

I'd like to think that there is some way to know where to look for a specific enchanter.  Surely, it can't be completely random.  Is there at least a known cycle of locations where these enchanters can be found?

texts:
So Districts, like Setllers, Missionaries, and Workers, increase in cost over the course of the game, the more of them you build.

However, it appears the cost of Districts increase in ways other than that, as oftentimes, the very first district I build has a production cost higher than the base cost (as listed in the production queue tooltip).

What factors contribute to the increase in cost?

texts: Is EVE Online turn-based behind the scenes?

texts:
This came up as an argument. As far as I know most MMOs employ a soft "turn-based" mechanism to compensate for lag, and allow complicated actions to be performed ("cooldown" etc). They are sometimes called "tick based" systems as well.

Obviously EVE Online doesn't have a turn-based gameplay but does it employ turn-based game mechanics?

Otherise it means that faster internet connection or living in Iceland could be an advantage in combat.

texts: Is the satellite rush tactic sustainable on classic?

texts:
I picked up Enemy Within during Steam's winter sale, and I just finished a normal playthrough. Enemy Within seems to have added the tactical & strategic depth I felt the base game lacked, so I'm still in the mood for another playthrough, and I figured I'd try classic difficulty.

I haven't had much trouble putting up 3 satellites in the first month, but I haven't figured out how to put up another 3 or so in the second month. There just doesn't seem to be enough time to excavate, build a power generator (or two), build a workshop to get enough engineers, and then build a 2nd satellite nexus.

On normal I was able to launch 3 satellites a month every month until I had full coverage, but I can't see how to do it on classic. Is it possible, and if so, how do you do it?


texts: Can't find a multiplayer game, have the local servers been shut down?

texts:
Have the modern warfare servers for PC shut down for people in Britain? I am from Wales and have been trying to connect to a game for about a month now, I tried re-installing it and have tried all of the updates, but when I log in and try a team death match game it says (most of the time atleast) 1000/3745 players in playlist.

I assume there are atleast 1000 people playing it out of 3745 people who are currently logged into and playing different game types, but I cannot seem to connect to any games, the lobbys that I try to get connected to go right up to <160 ping then it just stops there and says looking for matched player and it will stay on this screen (I tried the other day for lack of anything better to do) for an hour and it still wouldn't not connect.

I assume the reason it is searching for games that are more than say <70 ping is purely down to no one in Britain or Europe playing this game any more, could someone shed some light on this? I don't want to have wasted 20 pounds on the MW2 DLC last month for nothing, and I assume steam doesn't do refunds ;)

texts: How to switch ideology in Civilization 5 Brave New World

texts:
I'm making a goldfarm in minecraft. I'm making an automatic collection system. I have a hopper minecart run in an unloading loop.

I have an issue with the unloading loop. I want to use the same hopper mine-cart to collect and unload the items. I need a way to keep the cart in the unload loop until the cart is empty, then release it to the collection loop.

To switch between loops i have a switch that turns the track. I activate this switch automatically. The default OFF state of the switch is to stay in the unloading loop. If an empty hopper-cart is detected, the switch is activated for a couple seconds and the hopper-cart is switched to the collection loop.

I'm sending an ON pulse only when the cart is empty and otherwise having the output be OFF. I used a detector rail as one output and a comparator measurement as another output. The comparator is ON when the cart is over the detector rail and it has items and the detector rail is ON when the cart is over the rail. Thus if the detector rail is ON but the comparator is OFF I know the hopper-cart is empty. There are three states:

State          Detector rail        Comparator        Desired output
Cart full      ON                   ON                OFF
Cart empty     ON                   OFF               ON
No cart        OFF                  OFF               OFF

This is XOR behavior. I fed both outputs to an XOR gate. Here is the problem, one of my inputs has a 1 tick delay (game ticks not red-stone ticks). I think this causes my XOR gate to have transition states because the two inputs are not synchronized. This causes undesired behavior which I will give an example of:

Here is how my inputs are wired:

Detector-rail -> repeater(2 tick delay) -> comparator(2 tick delay) -> input to XOR.

Comparator reading detector-rail(2 tick delay) -> repeater(2 tick delay) -> input to XOR.

Everything else is redstone wire.

From my understanding of the above, both inputs should have exactly the same delay, reach the XOR gate at the same time and keep the output of the XOR gate OFF. When I run a full hopper-cart over the detector-rail, my XOR gate sends a 1 tick ON output pulse to the track switcher.

I suspect one of the inputs has a different delay and I think its because the comparator has to read the hopper-cart contents when it is on the detector rail. I'm unsure of the true cause.

What I want: when a full cart passes over the rail, the XOR gate gets both inputs  ON ON at the exact same tick and the output stays OFF. How do I synchronize these signals so I don't get 1 tick ON pulses?

What I've tried:

I searched extensively on the internet and mine-craft forums for
information on how to synchronize pulses. I couldn't find anything on
pulse synchronization.
I tried asking friends on minecraft servers for help but none of them
have gone this in depth with redstone.
I also tried adding a comparator to the XOR output to see if that
would cause it to ignore 1 tick outputs because according to The
official Minecraft wiki "Redstone comparators usually do not respond
to 1-tick fluctuations of power or signal strength".

For clarification purposes:

Here are the inputs to the XOr gate:

Here is the XOR gate itself:

Here is what happens when A hopper-cart with items runs over the track (inputs are ON ON output should be OFF at all times)


texts: Why do higher level players move between each attack?

texts:
I always see players move between every attack, even if they are attacking a stationary target (for instance a tower) and there is no theat close that would make their current position worth changing?

I think this practice is called "kiting".

So why are they doing this, is there any advantage to modifying your position between every attack?

texts:
The abilities of a unit can be seen in its "unit card" when it is selected as small icons, and I can hover over them for information. However, in late game many units (especially ones upgraded from old units) get so many abilities from promotions, buildings and social policies that the icons extend so much left they go under the unit icon and even flow off the screen, preventing me from hovering over them.

Is there are way to see what those abilities are? Perhaps there's a UI mod to change this?

Why are so many other players buying any and all random gear, even if it has horrible stats?

Every time I want to play with friends I have to only turn on one controller, go to the game, and when we're all ready to play, go to Wii Menu > Reconnect, and connect all the controllers pressing 1+2, then exiting the Wii Menu.

If a controller is not used for some time, it automatically turns off, and if someone presses a button on that controller, it disconnects all others and the Wii needs a reboot.

Have you heard of this problem before?

Does someone know how to fix it?

texts: Can one please elaborate the 'Engi Colony Hiding' encounter?

texts:
I've stumble the 'Engi Colony Hiding' encounter:

  You notice an Engi colony hiding on the other side of a nearby
  moon. It turns out they're excavating an equipment cache from the
  Federation-Mantis War, and they suggest it might be used to lure the
  pursuing rebel fleet.

I can't seem to truly understand what are the options exactly (and in a critical situation):

  Booby trap the cache (-2 missiles).
  Secure the cache.

Can you please explain the story and the options?

texts: Is there a point where trying to perform "Tough" alchemy is impossible?

texts:
in Atelier Rorona Plus you got a % to show you the success rate of the alchemy and you saw the modifier for traits like Success, Beginner or Complex. so with the Dragon Hourglasses so long as the final Success % was not 0 you could succeed with enough reloads (ie. True Dragon Hourglass at Alchemy Level 50 and not enough Max MP to make it was 0% until using a Beginner or Success Trait).

in Atelier Totori Plus you don't have a % but just a word. i was at Alchemy Level 16 when i tried to make some Tanbeash but kept failing. after a bit i was on Alchemy Level 21 and was able to make it after a couple of reloads. both times it said it was "Tough" and i know Tanbeash was level 35

So i am wondering, in the difference between Alchemy Level and an item's level, is there a point where trying to perform "Tough" alchemy is impossible? (equal to a success of 0% in Rorona)

I have a few side ops on my list that are still bright despite being checked off as completed. Most seem to get darker as you finish them.

The only one that comes to mind at the moment though is one of the prisoner extractions (prisoner extraction 3 maybe?). It still shows up on the map as well (even if not highlighted in the list) and I can still go to that location while in free roam, trigger it, and complete it again.

My guess was that this was a repeatable side op. It just seemed weird that only prisoner extraction 3 is so far, and not 1 or 2. Can anyone confirm/deny this?

Edit: Looks like a similar (if not duplicate, yet differently phrased question was already asked here. Good, additional information on the accepted answer over there as well.

texts: Pokemon radar ring slow to reveal Pokemon

texts: When hunting Pokémon with the Fam, my radar always seems to be the last to have the same Pokémon show up (usually to the rear of the radar ring).  Sometimes they never show up in my game at all.  It should have nothing to do with internet strength or ISP because I'm providing the hotspot and we all have the same cell phone service.  Is there a trick to strengthen the radar ring signal?  I've also deleted and reloaded the Pokémon Go App 3 times.


texts:
After many many years of StarCraft 1 I've finally built up the courage to face possible disappointment in StarCraft 2 and bought myself a shiny new copy of it.

I've played my way through 10 or so campaign missions and am definitely not disappointed - the way they've stayed really close to the original is PERFECT.

However, I noticed something last night when I played online with a friend for the first time:

In single player, I have access to Medics and Goliaths. Terran is my favourite race to PvP with in SC1 and those are two key units of Terran in my opinion. In fact, without Medics; Terran is pretty pathetic until you work up to larger units.

In battlenet or custom games, I don't have access to Medics or Goliaths.. Am I missing something? Do I need to unlock them or something? Or are they just not available in anything other than the campaign?

texts:
In Kingdom Hearts, Sora has started his adventure unwanted after the Heartless invaded Destiny Island.

He then saves the worlds and Destiny Island is recreated (as seen in Kingdom Hearts II, where Kairi and Selphie are going to school and to the beach, also in the ending sequence of Kingdom hearts and Kingdom Hearts II).

When his adventure began, he wanted to create a raft with Riku and Kairi. When the Heartless came, there was a storm, so Sora went to the little Island immediately.

BUT here is the heart of the question: When he went to the island where the raft lies, a woman, presumably his mother called for him.
Is this woman related to Sora ever mentioned again?

Kairis relatives were probably swallowed by the Darkness in Radiant Garden.
About Rikus family, there is as far as I know never mentioned anything.

But Sora has at least one relative, which seems like he doesn't care for them or didn't had any bonds to them (which I can't believe, because he worships friendship so much).

texts:
This has always boggled me. Obviously GameShark and Game Genie never got inside access to place their own cheats into every game. I don't think any developers gave them the source code to pour over for codes. And I don't think the original development process for these games included placing any of these codes themselves. So, what is a GameShark or Game Genie code, really?

Both of them usually take the form of a relatively short hexadecimal string (or multiple if that is the case) so my intuition tells me they use the same principle. But are they just memory addresses to flip a bit? Or lock it? Or XOR a series of bits with something? What is the code, and what does it do?

texts:
My mom's Wii has gotten to where it won't read disks, and my Wii has a fan that's gotten really noisy.

I have a spare Wii that I could scrounge for parts, and a tri-wing screwdriver, and I've been a long time user of iFixit, so have instructions ... but before I just steal parts from the relatively unused spare, I had two concerns:

Would it make more sense to try to move the effective 'brain' of one of the broken Wiis into the new system, rather than just move a single part?  (with the assumption that I'll have a relatively unused machine to work from, rather than two old machines with a single new part each)
If so, what's the part that needs to move?  (ie, where is the memory for the saved games that you can't write out to SD cards, like Super Smash Brothers?, the settings network settings, etc?).  I'm thinking a straight mother board replacement, but didn't know if it was hidden elsewhere, or on something removable from the memory board?

texts: How do people discover cheat codes in games?

texts:
Cheat codes are programmed into some games by developers. As an example: Have you ever played International Super Star Soccer 64? Well this game had several codes that would unlock new teams, give the footballers giant heads and things like that. We are able to unlock these things by pressing a sequence of controller buttons at the "Press Start" screen.

But how are the cheat codes actually discovered by people who are not the game's developers? Do the developers leak them on purpose? Are they officially released? Or do 'hackers' find them while reverse engineering games?

Note that I'm not talking about Gameshark Codes - these directly edit memory addresses and thus aren't a 'cheat code' or sequence per se.

Maybe there is a secret society behind the uncovering of cheat codes and its leaking to us, merely humans?

I am curious to know if there is actually a game mechanic which restricts which emotions can be taught, or if that conversation is just a bit of fluff. Are there any emotions that cannot be taught by giving Dr. Shrunk a single fruit, or can they all be unlocked by bringing him a single fruit each day?

The next time it was Railroad agents. So I went to the Cambridge police station, and started getting shot at by Brotherhood guys. I killed them all and then went to Railroad HQ, but there was no one there. Am I missing something? Any answers would be appreciated.

texts: When is it advisable to build sightstone on a jungler?

texts:
I'm a jungle main but I never build sight stone unless I'm on nunu. I do use sej, rek, gragas now and then, after watching lcs games I noticed all three champions had sighstone in their inventories a lot.

Is building sightstone a norm for competitive/ranked team based
games?
Can I as a solo queue jungler build it?
If so in which situations?
On which champions?
Would those champions have to purchase cindehulk for the sightstone to be more effective on the health stats?
Where would I ward on Red/Blue side for the laning, team objectives, mid and late game?
Considering I purchased sightstone where would I sweep for wards when behind or ahead (red and blue side)?
Where would I plant my pinks for both sides of the map when behind or ahead?

Vision is very important I am aware of that but I find myself sometimes sitting with two charges of my warding trinket not sure where would be the most effective warding areas unless I am split-pushing or warding for dragon/baron.

texts: Do rare enemies spawn anymore in Terraria 1.1.2?

texts:
So i tried to find Doctor Bones, Tim, and The Groom but, none i have only found The Groom ONCE!! I have been playing terraria for quite a long time now but have not found Doctor Bones or Tim. The reason i really want to find them is because A- They are rare. B- They have rare vanity items. B- It has become a goal for me to find them and slaughter them.

I understand that there are ways to cheat the items/enemies in but that won't fill that little amount of accomplishment you get when you actually kill them from luck of findings.

Undead miner and Pinky are also rare enemies but they are pretty common compared to the other three. I checked the wiki and other websites but no answers.

EDIT: I Finally found Tim but only after I completely destroyed a underground "House"(Those random houses with gold chests in them)... Then he became a pretty common enemy. Me and my friend joke about how we destroyed Tim's House so he attacked us.


texts: Why is the Dark Aurora full of railways and electric towers?

texts:
This is more of a lore question:

When you enter the Dark Aurora, there are three things floating around everywhere:

Railways
Railway signals
Electric towers

You see them everywhere, in every floor, repeated over and over and over again.

Why?

I can accept that there is a lot of wreckage and debris in the Dark Aurora, but why railways and electric towers only?

In Luxendarc, I don't think we ever see a railway system.

And the closest thing to electric towers would be Eternia's white magic cables.

So, my question is: is there any canon source explaining the large number of these particular objects in the Dark Aurora?


texts: With the new Minecraft launcher, is there a way to change the .minecraft folder without manually specifying the Java path for every profile?

I am aware of the --workDir command line option, and I am using it to change the location of the .minecraft folder.  However, any profile I try to launch does not find the javaw.exe file (which is found in the workDir folder, as it should be in runtime\jre-x64\bin\javaw.exe).  It throws the following error:

Unable to locate the Java runtime.
Error details: The operation completed successfully.

If I manually specify the javaw.exe location, then it works.  My question is, why should I have to specify the javaw.exe file if it's in the default location already in the current workDir?

texts:
I'm a bit of a wonder perfectionist in Civilization, and I like to have a monopoly on them. However, sometimes another civilization sneaks one by me; in those situations, I like to conquer the city that has it to complete my collection.

In previous versions of Civilization, you had the ability, through demographics, to figure out what cities had wonders. But I can't seem to find anything like that in Civilization 5: the closest things I've found are the periodic "top 10"-style lists that'll mention how many wonders a civilization has.

texts:
I can find several YouTube videos of people going through each level in LittleBigPlanet 2 showing where Prize Bubbles are located. Are there any just plain lists of where they are? I've been through some of the levels already and have only a few bubbles I still need. It would be much easier for me to have a short description of where the groups of prize bubbles are instead of having to play, pause, play, pause, skip forward, skip backwards, etc. a YouTube video trying to follow along for the one prize bubble I'm missing (not to mention having to indulge the creator's terrible sense of humor which is apparently the standard for any gaming videos on YouTube).

The closest thing I've found is on GameFAQs, but that is a full description of how to beat each level. I'd love to have just a quick sentence for each prize bubble or group of prize bubbles describing their locations. Can anyone help me out?


texts:
I have a commercial city with no industry and there are ~5000 unfulfilled freight orders. The amount of freight commuting in fluctuates between 1000 to 4000 but never enough to satisfy all 5000 unfulfilled freight.

How do I get more freight to "commute in"?

Things I have tried:

Building a trade depot/port in my commercial city: This causes MORE unfulfilled freight orders since the trade depot/port expects freight shipments from local industries.
Building an industrial city next door that has excess freight: My industrial city has about 2000 freight "commuting out" yet it doesn't seem to have a significant effect on my commercial city. When I look at the freight view from region view, it says my industrial city still has a fair amount of unfulfilled freight orders even though it is already shipping out 2000 in excess (I have no idea what is going on here).


texts: What are the patterns for the animals in the different areas?

texts:
In Disco Zoo, you get animals by going on rescues in various areas, and each area has a few different animals (a couple common, some rare, and one mythical). Each animal will have a particular pattern in the grid of the rescue area.

What are the patterns for each of the animals?


texts: How to right click items repeatedly with redstone/command blocks

texts:
I have made a command block system that testfors when you have a blaze rod in your first slot and it's highlighted. If this all comes out true, then it will summon an armor stand, where another command searches when a blaze rod is placed in his hand. Then it executes a command that teleports you up higher.

So basically, what's happening is when you right-click the blaze rod, it will teleport you higher up.

My question: After teleporting me, how can I make the blaze rod "reset" so, I can just right-click it again as many times as I want without having to unselect it, and move to a different inventory slot, and go back on the blaze rod slot again. For, my system only resets when you hover on a different slot, rather than staying on the same slot and using the system repeatedly. I want it so you can stay on the same slot and use it many times.

Any ways to accomplish this?

Here is a picture of what my machine looks like.

Test for commands next to redstone block.
   Testfor armor stand holding blaze rod on left side
   Testfor player holding rod, selected in first slot on right side

Far right: Kills armorstand if blaze rod on slot 1 is NOT selected.

Top: summons the armor stand that follows player

Left: once armor stand has blaze rod, it gets removed, players inventoy cleared, a new blaze rod is placed, and it teleports player upward.

This is being used in 1.9, 15w46.

Is there any ideas on how to accomplish this?

This, however, apparently doesn't work for the Apollo Program or the Manhattan Project. Also spaceship parts cannot be constructed like that.

Most other wonders (world or national) can be rushed. To better plan my strategy in the next game: which wonders can I not rush with a Great Engineer?


texts: Skyrim SE: Game not launching after activating mods through NMM

texts:
I have problems with getting mods to work with Skyrim. I have done the following:

Installed Steam at C:\My docs\Apps\Gmz\Steam (that is to say, not Program Files)
Got Skyrim Special Edition as a gift on Steam. Installed it.
Installed Skyrim Script Extender for Skyrim SE
Installed Nexus Mod Manager
Installed mod/plugin SkyUI (and also others) and activated it/them
Starting the game through skse64_loader.exe

My problem is that the game does not load. When I click skse64_loader.exe to run it, it does not run. When I disable the mods/plugins in NMM, the game launches as usual. I really don't get what's wrong. I have tried re-installing everything 100 times now. No difference.

Thanks!

What are Mechanics numbers in the end of game table of Heroes of the storm?
Also, how are Takedowns count? Do you need to deal certain amount of damage to a dead enemy? or heal someone who killed it? or just be near? how near?
