texts: Minecraft: Zombies aren't being attracted to Villagers

texts:
I've made a Zombie XP Farm which has been working pretty well by using the new water elevator which uses the soul sand to push them up. In order for the elevator to work though, I have to surround the water sources with solid blocks.

Previously, in my old model the zombies had to push each other into the water elevator through two fence gates which worked but it was a slow process as they often wanted to go against the current that was pushing them into the elevator. So, I figured why don't I use myself as bait to cause them to want to get into the elevator by placing myself on the opposite side of the water elevator using signs to prevent the water from spilling on my side which worked really well.

After that, I thought to myself, "Why don't I just place a Villager in my place to attract the zombies into the water elevator so that I won't have to keep going down there to attract them". After placing in the Villager, I noticed that the zombies had no interest in attacking him. They kept wanting to go against the current, they weren't even looking at the Villager, and the process was as slow as the old model without bait.

Does anyone know what the problem could be? I thought that Zombies in the Java Edition of Minecraft could see through ALMOST anything including glass, ladders, slabs, fence gates, and signs at a far distance. I tried all of these to see if they would be able to see the Villager but it doesn't seem to work. They only seem to be attracted to me when I put myself as bait.

Please let me know if there's anything that I need to clarify or elaborate on. Thanks!

texts: Is there anyway to change the surname of dwarfs?

texts:
It seems like there isn't, apart from programmatically changing the first two items of the words array using DFusion(as indicated by the following arQAde question). However that question is a bit old, so I was wandering if anybody came up with anything new?

The reason why I would like this is that I would like to easily indicate familial bonds(who's whose family, using patriarchal rules for surname inheritance). It doesn't make sense to me for a child of a bloke to not bear their surname.

A work around could be created by using the nickname field as dynasty name holder, and selecting to display the nickname in the middle.

texts:
My biggest losing streak was a 8 lose streak and recently I had another 3 lose streak.

In ALL of these games, my score was either neutral or positive, but NEVER negative. However, in all of them, there was always at LEAST one person on a ridiculously low score (for example in my most recent game, the adc went 1/11).

I feel that I am a lot more knowledgeable than many of my team mates (I don't mean this in an arrogant way but many of them don't seem to know basics like objectives > kills, taking a drag after killing both in bot lane at level 6, backing off once taking inhibitor and on low HP, not chasing, warding the right places, don't try to duel a Jax, don't try to split push unless the rest of the team is taking another objective simultaneously, etc)

Now I'm aware that I'm not a perfect player, I make mistakes and in every single game, there is ALWAYS something I could have done better. However, I don't often get caught out or say push a lane with no vision etc. The mistakes I usually make are things like forgetting that I have a smite charge to use in a team fight, forgetting to use Face of the Mountain on my adc when duelling their bot lane, forgetting that I have a potion leftover and not using it when that could have saved me.

However, I feel very demotivated at the moment to continue playing ranked games. I don't mind losing a game here and there because of a ridiculously low scoring member of the team, since that just happens sometimes, but when this happens so many times in a row, it does make ranked feel much less enjoyable for me because I feel 'helpless'. My most recent example of something like this was when I was 24/3 and the rest of my team mates were around 3/12, 0/9, 1/11 etc. That game I still lost.

I often see people saying that if I belong in a certain tier, then I'll get there eventually after some number of games, but I'm starting to believe this less and less the more of these kinds of games I play.

Is this normal and do you perhaps have any suggestions? Am I just seeing things the wrong way? I play either top, jungle or support. I am almost always either jungle or support though.

texts: Using Queen and Chrono Boost Effectively

texts:
So it looks like both the Queen and Chrono Boost come up every 25 seconds and each last 20 seconds, so unless your using them on multiple targets, you need to be checking back on these things every 25 seconds, which is really hard for me to juggle with everything else going on constantly.

Is there a faster way to automatically target the nexus/hive?  It's pretty easy for me to queue up gathering units, because I can just hit 1 and then E, and I don't have to move my screen back to my base or use the mouse.  It just seems silly to me that the mouse needs to be used for this task because the mouse is so much slower.

Also what is the prescribed role of the Queen/Chrono Boost?  Do you always want 1 queen per hive and blasting them every 25 seconds, right?  And is Chrono Boost usually used on the nexus itself except when you need to rush out some troops?

Thanks

texts: What's more fuel efficient, orbit or slingshot?

texts:
I didn't test it because I just had that idea. Normally, I (maybe everyone?) would send the ship to orbit Kerbin and then plan the trajectory to the final destination.

Making the spaceship to orbit Kerbin will consume more fuel than sending the ship straight ahead to escape Kerbin gravitational influence.

Taking that in consideration, if I use the Mum and/or Minmus (and even other planets) to slingshot me to the final destination, would it be more fuel efficient or the gain is negligible?

texts: Xbox One controller intermittently shutting itself off mid-use

texts:
I have the weirdest issue that I've been digging for a solution to for hours and am resorting to trying to post a couple places.

Controller shuts down despite having full battery in the middle of gaming. This only occurs on my main desktop PC. I've tried:

Hooking up different Microsoft dongles on this PC
Same thing happens on this PC with different controllers
These same controllers and dongles work fine on other PCs without
ever turning off during use
Multiple USB ports, front and back including trying the extra USB on
my keyboard/monitor which kept the distance between the controller
and dongle to less than a foot apart.

So through process of elimination it HAS to be something on this specific PC that is causing the issue. Has anyone ever ran into this?

Civ 5's "Military Overview" (F3) is a pale shadow of that. Among other things, while I can see which units exist and what they're doing, I can't seem to find where they are.

Am I missing something? Short of that, I'd be happy just for something that let me cycle through all the units, but all I've found is a way to cycle through all units that are awaiting orders—useless if a unit is exploring, fortified, or asleep.

  Tips for killing enemy crew without use of boarding parties

While playing FTL, one of the jumps resulted in me picking up an angry spacer whose ship had just been captured by pirates. He requested my assistance in retaking his ship which, he stressed, would entail not destroying it.

I had no crew teleporters so I proceeded in destroying the enemy ship's oxygen supply subsystem until the oxygen drained to below 5% (I know this because I got the achievement). I waited a while and... nothing. I realized they might be healing so I also disabled the medbay as well. Waited a while and... nothing. I didn't have scanners level 2 so I didn't know for sure what was going on but all the enemy crew must have died, no? In any case the ship kept firing and I was eventually forced to destroy it, much to the dismay of the spacer I picked up.

Was there any way to complete that mission successfully without me having any crew teleporters?

texts: At what range do various weapons get range bonuses?

texts:
Weapons can gain an aim bonus based on your range to a target, as shown at the bottom of this screenshot:

Does this "Weapon Range" bonus apply the same way to all weapons, i.e. is the effective range for all weapons X tiles away from a target? Or do the effective ranges depend on the type of weapon, like shotguns being most effect at ranges of less than X tiles, rifles being most effective at ranges of between X and X + 10 tiles, while sniper rifles are most effective at ranges between X + 10 and X + 20 tiles?

Weapons can also get critical change bonuses depending on range to a target. The shotgun is the most obvious one: the closer you are to a target, the higher your critical chance. Does this crit bonus apply the same way to other weapons as well, e.g. the closer you are to a target with a sniper rifle, the higher your crit chance will be?


texts: How can I make a "needs redstone" repeating command block reset after it loses power?

texts:
This is a weird one. I'm creating an adventure map where when a player walks past a block, they get a bit of text. I only want this to run once, so my solution is to make a Needs Redstone repeating command block that has redstone feeding into it. Once the Needs redstone command block is true, it removes the redstone dust, so the command block stops getting power, and can no longer be true.

This is great in theory. Problem : once the redstone is removed, the repeating command block locks its position and doesnt update. It continues to provide a true comparator output.

How can I fix this? Is there a different way to have a repeating checking command block to only run once after it's become true?

However, I have one concern. I am a bit bored from using the keyboard + mouse and want to try the Xbox one controller. Of course I could just get the Xbox version but it is less private to the children. There seems to be some mods that allows the use of the Xbox 360 controller.

So I wonder if it would work with a Xbox One controller or if I need another mod to do this. Has anyone tried this?

Their accounts are child accounts linked to my account

I'm trying to recreate the Apollo 11 mission once more... (0.90 update stuffed up my save) But this time I want to do it a little differently...

You can choose your save files flag by going to the Flagpole outside the KSC and doing so..
You can choose your missions flag by going to the respective menu inside the VAB/SPH.

Can you choose your Kerbals flag or edit it via mods or save file editing? Because I want the NASA flag on the Apollo ship and the American flag in my Kerbals hands.

Please, I really need this. xD

Any help will be appreciated.

texts: In Mario 64 speedruns, why are the keys necessary?

texts:
I've been a fan of TAS (Tool Assisted Speedrun) videos for a long time, and always go back to watch the various Mario 64 Speedruns because they're so good, but after watching a few videos, I wonder:

Why are the keys obtained from Bowser even necessary, when the speedrunners have the ability to slip through walls and "locked" doors (that is, doors that are locked off due to not having enough stars)? What's stopping them from Backwards Long Jump & Running their way up to the final Bowser fight?

I originally suspected that the layout of the keyed door and adjacent walls up to the third floor meant that a BLJ & R  would be impossible (due to there not being the "right" kind of gap to pilot Mario through, like the Dire Dire Docks water wall or the original BLJ & R that took Mario into the first Bowser level), but now I'm not so sure.

Anyone know of reasons why a "no keys" run hasn't been done yet?


texts: Are the Professor Layton and the Curious Village download puzzles still available?

texts:
I just recently bought Professor Layton and the Curious Village (EU version) to play on my 3DS.

It has a feature to download extra puzzles over the internet.

My question is, are these puzzles still available?

It's a bit of a pain to get the old DS games online because they only support WEP, so before I spend ages mucking about with networking, I'd like to know if it's even going to work, because the game originally came out in 2007 - maybe they took the extra puzzles offline by now?


texts: What's the benefit of destroying titles?

texts:
I am the ruler of three kingdoms. Some of my vassals have a -20 opinion penalty, because they "desire this and that kingdom". There is an option to destroy a King-level title, however it comes with a -50 opinion modifier for all de jure vassals.

Apparently, I can hold as many kingdoms as I like, and people will hate me for destroying excess kingdoms – so what exactly are the gains from doing so?

A rival king has only a few holdings left. If I take those last holdings, I assume his kingdom will be destroyed. Will that still give a opinion penalty for "not being de jure liege" or something?

On the main menu there is an "Exit Application" option, but this simply closes the application but doesn't actually allow you to change the currently logged in account. Starting Steam up again after exiting the application simply logs back into the same account again.

Decided to start playing through all the classes from scratch to experience firsthand the changes that 5.0.4 have wrought. I'm now up to a Warlock, and I've become painfully reminded of just how inconsistent (and sometimes, lethal) tab-targeting can be.

That being said, is there some sort of mod out there (or heck, even in-game fix that I'm missing) that'd make DOT'ing things up a bit less tricky and less hunt (through the mayhem of a mass of mobs)-and-clicky? Gotta spread the Corruption a lit more uniformly amongst the masses!

A good example of something similar would be Decursive, a neat li'l mod I used on the healing side to streamline decursifyin' things back in the day.

How can you shoot viruses with the W key? I have seen multiple servers do this, and I was wondering how. I'm using an Ogar server, and I'm sure I need to add some code somewhere.

If I'm not clear, I want to be able to press W and a small virus will come out. Instead of mass, it will be a small virus.

And I'm not sure how to customize the W skin, to look like a small virus.

texts:
I was fooling around on dark souls 2 last night and I read the description of the Old Knight Greatshield which states:

An undated ancient greatshield

Wielded by a warrior from a time so ancient that there exists no record of his endeavors. Has extremely low durability.

Sometimes, just as a thing falls to pieces, it unleashes its last flash of great power...

I noticed the part where it says  "Sometimes, just as a thing falls to pieces, it unleashes its last flash of great power..." and that made me wonder if there was some sort of passive when you break the shield. I went out and took it down to zero durability about 5 times with no result. So is there actually a hidden passive for it, or is From just yanking my chain?

When considering building a character with a high amount of blacksmithing or sagecrafting it would be helpful to know more about the potential benefits of the gems that can be incorporated into equipment.

What recipes exist to create epic gems and what stats do they give?


texts: Does Mass Transit lower high wealth land value?

texts:
I have tried to build a "high-rent" district in my town with plenty of formal parks and plazas that are supposed to increase high-wealth land value. These parks are laid out in a manner that should maximize the coverage area for the highest land value while minimizing monthly cost from parks.

However, I am noticing spotty coverage in places that seem to be radiating out from the roads. Upon zooming in while in the land value data layer, I notice that a bus stop sign is given a red tint, indicating it negatively impacts land value.

Is this bus stop causing the spotty land value coverage?

texts: Why did my Xbox One Controller stop working with Steam?

texts:
I have a MacBook Pro running macOS High Sierra 10.13.4

I've been connecting an Xbox One controller wirelessly through Bluetooth to play games on Steam and it has worked fine. But recently, the Xbox controller no longer works with Steam. I can connect the controller fine and it recognizes that a an Xbox controller is connected when I go to the settings in Big Picture Mode. But it doesn't actually let me control the menus in Big Picture Mode or control anything in-game. Not sure what has changed to cause the issue. The controller is not the issue because I have tried different other Xbox One controllers.

I did notice that these issues started to appear after I checked "Turn off on Big Picture Exit" in controller settings. I'm not sure if this is related to the problem or merely a coincidence. I've since tried it without that box checked.

I have updated Steam to the most recent build since this event, but the problems started(and continue to persist) before I updated Steam.

Xbox Configuration Support is on, Big Picture Mode is on, controller is recognized by Steam, but the problem persists.

Any reasons why I may be having this problem? Any possible fixes?

Update:

When I plug in the controller through usb it works fine.

texts: Command block problem, damaging snowballs

texts:
I'm trying to make a damaging snowball command which doesn't need redstone (comparators, repeaters etc.) This is the entire code:

Command one:

/scoreboard players set xXElite_PythonXx HoldSnowball 1 {SelectedItemSlot:0,Inventory:[{tag:{display:{Name:"shuriken",Lore:["_____"]}}}]}

Command two:

/execute @e[score_HoldSnowball_min=1] ~ ~ ~ scoreboard players set @e[type=Snowball,rm=3,r=4] Snowball 1

Command three:

/execute @e[type=Snowball,score_Snowball_min=1] ~ ~ ~ effect @e[r=2] wither 1 1 true

Command four:

/scoreboard players set xXElite_PythonXx HoldSnowball 0

Command two is crucial in order for the whole damaging schematic to work, but the problem is that it doesn't execute the command, it instead says:

  [15:55:42] Failed to execute 'scoreboard players set @e[type=Snowball,rm=3,r=4] Snowball 1' as xXElite_PythonXx

Could you please help to fix the problem with command number two? What is the correct code?

I know gods are classed as either physical or magical, but not sure how this applies to these two types of lifesteal.  Maybe there is no connection.

It looks like physical lifesteal applies to auto attacks only, and magical applies to abilities.  However, this is only from my observations.  I cannot say for certain.

texts: Annoying counter strike 1.6 auto-connect - no solution worked for me

texts:
We all know the "auto connect" annoying 'hacks' on the Counter-Strike configuration files.

So basically this problem is similar to the other problems; everytime I connect a server, it connects to the same server. But, the weird thing is, that it happens when I am trying to connect a server that is in my Favorites list, for example. It doesn't happen when I click on the New Game or Find Servers buttons. Only when I'm trying to connect a new server.

I tried couple things in order to solve this annoying problem:

Connecting through the console (~) with the connect [IP] command.
Deleting my GameMenu.res. Deleting my CS (cstrike) folder.
I even reinstalled Counter-Strike, but this still occurs.
My CS folder is Read-Only. So are my config.cfg, userconfig.cfg, etc.

I am playing through Steam, of course.

This is what my console looks like:

It always connects to king.indungi.ro:27015

I have never used a haste beacon before, I got it in my realms world and it did not work then in 1.15.1 or now in 1.15.2. Yet I know it should work as I have seen the hermits in hermitcraft using it.

I did use a datapack with custom villager trades to get the beacon in my realm.

I used a wither skeleton head dropper datapack in my single player world.

Edit: Here are some screenshots:

I don't understand why it does not work. Unless its a bad file of something like that.

texts: What are some tips to get the "blow up 3 enemies" achievements?

texts:
I've just played through rage, and while I am not crazy enough to go after some of the achievements, I was actually aiming for Three Birds, One Bomb Car and Hat Trick.

However, try as I might I couldn't set up a situation that would allow me to get one of these. Several factors contributed to my failure:

It is very rare to encounter large groups of clustered enemies that don't try to immediately charge you (mutants) or go hide behind a wall (just about every other enemy).
All enemies are clairvoyant, and know exactly what RC bomb cars and mind control bolts are, and so will try to shoot your RC cars/controlled suicide bombers.
RC car bombs are amazingly annoying to drive, as they tend not to be able to go over most obstacles, even if they are incredibly low.

Any tips on how to set up a situation where these achievements can be acquired with relative ease would be appreciated.

I learned that the hard way when I was trying to find my furniture tree. Now, I have an eye swollen shut and all of my towns people are making fun of me. They're all being kind enough to inform me that I need Medicine, but they seem to be enjoying themselves at my expense too much to tell me where to actually find the Medicine.

Where can i get medicine? I'd really like it if my townspeople stopped making fun of me.


texts:
With the introduction of the Weapon Refinery you can now Refine a lot of weapons to make them better and give them new abilities.

I have a Ninian level 40+1 who I love using, and noticed I can refine her Light Breath+.

The new ability seems rather amazing, and the second part seems a little confusing:

  "After Combat, grants ATK/SPD/DEF/RES +5 to Ninian and allies within 2
  spaces for 1 turn."

  "If foe's range = 2, damage is calculated using the lower of the foe's
  DEF or RES"

The first part I understand, seems pretty good,
The second part I understand as "In combat with a foe 2 spaces away, if their DEF is lower than their RES, use their DEF in damage calculation instead" (as Ninian usually uses their RES stat in calculations)
This confuses me as Light Breath+ is a 1 range weapon, how can I attack enemies 2 spaces away?

I'd like to know if this is the correct meaning of the second part of the ability, and I need something like Distant Counter to make use of it?
Or is there something I am missing?

texts: How do I activate the Goddess Cubes under the giant tree in Faron Woods?

texts:
I just finished the first dungeon in Skyward Sword.  After learning about the Goddess Cubes, I went back to Faron Woods because I remembered seeing one, but didn't know what it was at the time.  As I entered Faron Woods from the Northeast, out of the Deep Woods, directly under the tree in front of me and just to the left of that are two Goddess Cubes.  (Map here.)

I wandered all around the tree and could not figure out how to get up to them.  The only clue I found was something that looked like a square bullseye.  I tried running the beetle into it and hitting it with the slingshot, but nothing happened.

How do I reach and activate these cubes?


texts: My save data is not being stored in Wildtangent's Game FATE

texts:
I recently downloaded the game again for nostalgia's sake on my pc. I was attempting to save my game and it doesn't appear to work. You start a game, click "Save and Exit", and then the game goes back to the menu and does not contain the "Continue" option, only the New Game one. I have tried a few things:

First, a common suggestion was to start the game as an administrator, and that didn't work.

The next one was to check the file location for the save file and see if the folder was there. I checked and the file was there.
Here is the file location:

Local Disk (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Wild Tangent > Fate > Persistent > SAVE

However, no data is being saved to the folder.

I have also tried changing some compatibility settings in the game properties, but none of them seem to work either.

If I need to provide more information about this issue please do not hesistate to ask. I do also understand that this is an old game, but all help is appreciated.

Thanks!

texts:
Can you actually get these cards, and if you can, how? I've played through one generation, and neither me or my peers have seen them. Do you have to reach a certain point in the game? Have they been removed from the game?

Stack the deck is apparently also known as Choose a Burn Card.

texts:
Is there a way to easily favorite a server while a match?

I've looked through the list of console commands but haven't found anything of much use.

The closest commands I have found are:

  cl_ask_favorite_for_any_server:

  If nonzero, auto-ask for local/LAN servers (for debugging)

  cl_ask_favorite_min_session_duration:

  If player stays on a server for longer than this time (in seconds) prompt to add server to favorites

  cl_ask_favorite_opt_out:

  If nonzero, don't auto-ask to favorite servers

However these don't allow me to just add the sever to my favorites at anytime i wish.

I'm looking for something like cur_server_favorite =1

~Maybe I've just missed something incredibly obvious but please someone point it out!

texts: Will summoning Durnehviir level up Conjuration like I used a Conjuration spell?

texts:
The TES wiki says this about the 'Summon Durnehviir' shout:

  The shout Summon Durnehviir functions as a conjuration spell unlike Call of Valor. Therefore, if there is already a creature summoned, the shout will replace the summoned creature, also, summoning something else while Durnheviir is still active will prematurely end him.

Also, summoning Durnehviir requires you to shout at (target) the ground unlike the other summoning dragon shouts, and like the Conjuration summoning spells.

Based on this, I'm wondering if summoning Durnehviir will also level up Conjuration like I used a Conjuration spell (assuming there are enemies around and I am in combat). Can anyone confirm or deny?

texts: Is Rerise negated when Summoning an Eidolon?

texts:
I've got Rem to learn an skill which gives the party Rerise status however she seems to use it randomly. but i have been wondering that since my character is killed when i summon an Eidolon and when the Eidolon is unsummoned my character lays there as if they had died from regular combat, would they come back to life if i summoned when they have Rerise?

The reason why i havn't been able to try this myself is because i generally play as Queen because she is the strongest at the moment (Lv. 49 equipped a sword with ~50 attack which out classes everyone else), Rem gives the party Rerise at random times and generally i am in the middle of a mission or far away from Akademia doing tasks when Rem does give Queen Rerise.

texts: Breaking out of a neverending battle without leaving the match

texts:
Recently, I was in the Battle Factory in Pokemon Emerald and was put up against a Pokemon with maxed out defense stats. I was using Latias, and had the opponent's attack at the minimum. Unfortunately, all my other Pokemon had fainted and we were both low on PP. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but we were both holding Leftovers. After about 40 minutes of struggling, I did the math to see the probability of one of us getting enough critical hits in a row to end the battle, and promptly decided it was best to just forfeit and end my 70-something winning streak.

What can I do in the future to get out of such endless battles without leaving the match?

How important is expertise for an assassination rogue in 5-man heroics?  All the info pages I find for rogue stats (hit/expertise) are always aimed at hitting lv88 mobs (raid content) which I'm not (currently) interested in.  For instance, I don't need to hit the 'hit cap' for poisons (spells) so I'm suspicious of the purported importance of the expertise cap.

Any info would be appreciated, I'm looking at reforging my gear and trying to figure out what to reforge into what.  The lv85/lv87 attack dummies only help so much.

What is the effect of equipment position for upgrades? Are there optimal layouts, and is it worth dismantling equipment to rebuild in a better location?

texts: My 3DS got wet, what did I lose and what can I recover?

texts:
Four days ago my 3DS fell into water while on, when I pulled it out it remained on, quickly I turned it off and dry it with a towel, removed the SD card and game card, and placed it in a bowl with rice until it got fully covered.

Today I checked it out and while it is charging, the power button won't turn it on. I'll take it to a repair shop later, but in case it doesn't have a fix, what have info have I lost on it?

For example, I play Pokemon Omega Sapphire from a game card, if I get another 3DS, will I be able to still play it without losing my data? What about my pokemon on my PokeBank?

In regards to my SD card, can I place it in a new 3DS and load my data? For example, I had Monster Hunter Ultimate on digital in it, will I be able to play? What about Pokemon Shuffle data, will it be playable if I insert the SD card on a new console? What about Metroid on the virtual console?

How does this affect my Nintendo Network Id if I get a new 3DS? Will my data from all of my card games be erased?

I'm hoping there's a fix for my 3DS, but I want to be prepared for the worse.

This is my second play through of Mass Effect 3. The first time it was flawless but during my second play through I have all single player major DLCs installed.

I have Javik and Liara as my team mates and at the point you go to Ardat Yakshi monastery where you meet Samara (depends on ME2) - after two battles with banshees you take an elevator to the great hall.

In my case, however, the elevator keeps on going forever. The game doesn't hang but the elevator never stops going and if I choose any option from the menu (load, save, squad.. etc) then the game freezes. The only solution I then have is to resort to ctrl+alt+del.

I've restarted it several times tried different combinations of squadmates but the game always gets stuck on the elevator.

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

I have a few game updates automatically scheduled on Steam. What I don't get is how Steam decides when to update a game. The scheduled updates range from tonight at 3AM, Wednesday at 2:35 to 8th of July at 1:30. Is there any information as to how Steam prioritizes updates? And if so, is it possible for me to add a global schedule for downloads (let's say, start updates for everything on Thursdays at 3 o'clock)?
I'm aware that there are settings for individual games but just having everything ready to go at a certain time would be really useful. Also, knowing how it prioritizes which game to update first would be good information to have.


texts:
I've hear this term thrown around, and understand parts of it, but I'm not entirely clear on what exactly this move is, from beginning to end.
I believe the finish, from an adjacent block, is:

Ramp over your opponent
Back-edit one side of the ramp. This both reverses the ramp, and splits it in half. The half-split isn't really needed; it's for speed: this edit is faster than rotating the ramp 180 degrees.
Hit your shot--quickly :)

Is this all there is to it? Is there more, in the setup?

I have 3 trinkets and was going to replace one of the equipped ones with a new one.  However, this trinket has a green number in its stats:

However, from the information I can see, this appears to be the lesser trinket.  This is the other one I have equipped:

The game has right-click to equip functionality, and when trying to equip my new one, the level 12 trinket is the one removed.  I am unsure if the game will automatically get rid of the lower quality, but if it does that means the level 8 item is better than the level 12.

Is there anything special to an item with a green value for a stat?


texts: How much does friendship raise exactly with TM method?

texts:
I read on the internet that alternating two TMs on a pokemon should raise friendship pretty fast and should give maximum friendship in 5 to 10 minutes. Well, I think I'm over 15 minutes and my Munchlax still doesn't evolve after leveling up. I must say that I don't have Soothe Bell or Luxury Ball on him though.

Are there some hard numbers of with what value the friendship is raised after each new move learned?

As far as I understand most pokemon start at 70 and will evolve with lvl up at 220 or higher.

So, how much does the friendship raise exactly in these situations:

while holding Soothe Bell
while being in a Luxury Ball
holding Soothe Bell and in a Luxury Ball
without Soothe Bell or Luxury Ball

texts:
In the Commodore 64 manual for War In Middle Earth, the manual said:

  Sauron, like the Nazgul, is to be avoided altogether. However, he spends most
  of his time within the confines of Mordor itself. If he does venture beyond
  the borders of his foul realm, it will only be for a very short distance.
  There is no danger, for instance, of encountering him at Minas Tirith.

It was amusing to my brother and me that he not only attacked Minus Tirith in one particular game, he repeatedly did it. Once he was killed he would respawn in Mordor, and then come directly to attack Minas Tirith again. My brother's armies in the city were eventually destroyed and he lost. (Losing Minas Tirith was one game over condition).

What were the conditions that would cause Sauron to do exactly what the manual said he wouldn't do?

texts: Is there a predictable movement pattern for deer and elk?

texts:
While trying to take down deer or elk in the wild with a bow, failing to take them down in one shot or missing entirely will send them into flee mode.  When this happens, I've noticed that it's nearly impossible to hit them due to their seemingly sporadic movement patterns.

However, after studying these patterns in the hopes of being able to better anticipate their movements, it almost appears as though there is some cheap AI that's actually working against me while I aim.  When I have the bow aimed directly at them, they start moving side to side randomly as if they know they're right in the crosshairs.  If I calculate their trajectory and aim just ahead of where I anticipate them to be by the time my arrow actually gets there, I swear they either stop dead in their tracks or slow down as if to purposely throw off my trajectory calculations.  I then aim directly at them, but they take off again.  And once they start running, it seems as though they will run for miles before they stop to graze casually again.  It's so frustrating.

So is there some pattern to their movement speeds that will make them more predictable once they become frenzied?

texts:
Once you've got your believers to settle in their own hut, periodically a pink bubble will form above the home.

However, as you can see, the amount of bubbles that appear grows rapidly as your number of believers increases.

Additionally, if I do not click on the bubbles immediately, am I essentially wasting belief or does it accumulate in each bubble for each believer until I get around to clicking it?

Do I have to collect each bit of belief manually?

Essentially, one of the layers of plastic in the middle of the disc is now missing a piece, with no additional loose pieces still attached (to my best of knowledge). How dangerous would it be to use this disc to play? I've already tried it once, throwing caution into the wind and everything worked all right. Still, this may have just been luck.

What is a reliable, but not too time-consuming way to determine if a certain game is limited by the graphics card or by the processor speed?

I have some preconceptions about whether I'm mostly GPU or CPU limited, but I'd like to verify if I'm right about that. I have some ideas how I would go around and test that but performing accurate benchmarks is notoriously tricky and I don't have much experience with it.

So I'm wondering what would be an easy way to determine the bottleneck, having only one computer with a certain configuration available? What tools would I use for that purpose?

It would also be interesting to determine if the amount of VRAM on my graphics card is a limiting factor.

texts: What does "Verify Integrity of Game Cache" do?

texts:
I realize that many times when there is an issue with a game on Steam, it can be solved with "Verify Integrity of Game Cache".  But, what exactly does this do?

I tried running Darksiders and it gave me an error of "Missing Executable", so I figured the verify would easily catch that and install the missing files.  I was wrong, though, since the validation found no problems with the installation and the game continued to not launch from the same error.

I'm curious as to what exactly the verify option does.  I know on some other games I have tried it on, steam will end up downloading some files, but apparently not all files are included in this.


texts: Where and when can Treasure Goblin rifts appear?

texts:
Can you only find a Goblin Rift in Adventure Mode? Similarly, can treasure goblins found within Nephalem Rifts open up a Goblin Rift portal, or can only goblins found outside of Rifts open portals?

I already know that you have to be level 70, and that if a friend wants to enter they have to be nearby.
