texts: What happens to a Trader in production if I lose Trade Route capacity?

texts:
I know that it isn't possible to start production of a Trader if you don't have enough Trade Route capacity, but what happens if I'm already producing a Trader when I lose the capacity?

I'd like to know if the production continues and if it doesn't, if the spent production is lost or if it carries over. Based on what I've read elsewhere, excess traders become idle and can't establish trade routes until the capacity is increased, but that's for existing traders and not for traders in production.

To give you some context, I'm currently running a Merchant Republic and I'm considering switching to Monarchy, because most of my cities are short on housing and most of them have walls.


texts:
When I enter the Logistics view to assign prisoners to jobs, (see image) some of the icons that appear when I click on a work area are red, and sometimes they are white. I haven't been able to find anything online that can tell me what the color difference means. Does anyone already know what to do?

I can tell that it doesn't relate to the max jobs vs. qualified prisoners, because those numbers don't match.


texts:
In Player Unknown battlegrounds there's a massive underground bunker in F4 filled with high grade loot. I know from a game where I joined a random squad that there are more underground bunkers as we ran across a small one as we were traversing the map.

I have not been able to find the smaller bunker again; how many underground bunkers are there and where are they located?


texts:
I recently got Reaper of Souls, yes I know I'm late. I've been levelling up my characters to level 70 and I've been looking around for gear and gearing tips, and I've found that some of the legendary set items that I've already found the plans for (Aughild's, Captain Crimsons etc) are pretty good to start off with for a Demon Hunter which is my most recent levelling character.

I found these plans at a low level, and I tried to craft one of the items on my level 70 Wizard and it came up with lower stats and a level requirement of 42, which is when I found them and taught them to Haedrig, I also tried to enchant and I won't be able to get anything useful, is this a problem, is there anything I can do to increase the potency of this gear? if it's the best gear to start off with at level 70 then I'd like to be able to start off with it, but if I can't craft it to a good enough standard, then I won't be able to use it.

Sorry if this may seem a little hard to understand, I'm a little flustered and confused, and I will try and re write it or re word it if the meaning isn't understood. Basically is there a way I can raise the level requirement and the stats on set items I may need to start my level 70 journey?


texts: This is more of a how-to-use-the-interface question. I am a nomad and have just won subjugation of Arabian empire. For some (to me unfathomable) reason, all vassals of the previous ruler become my vassals.

That sounds like a lot of clicking though. Is there any way to do this quickly?

  What is a strategy to earn the best defense achievement in StarCraft 2?

I'm working my way through some of the missions to get the extra achievements and learn some skills in the process, but I'm already having a hard time on the "Zero Hour" mission when playing on Hard.

How do I destroy 4 Zerg Hatcheries on Hard difficulty?

Is it a matter of going in quickly when they haven't gotten the change to built Spine Crawlers and other resistance? And should I focus on getting more SCV to pay for multiple Barracks?

Any suggestions?


texts: What are the advantages of Fenrir's combos?

texts:
I've been playing as Fenrir a lot over the past week (mainly because it is on the current free rotation).  With Fenrir being a lot more common, I have noticed that players mainly use one of these two combos:

1 - 2 - 3
3 - 2 - 1 (my preferred)

So far I would say one combo is about as common as the other.  Are there any advantages to using one combo over the other?

I found 3 - 2 - 1 useful because I can use 1 to escape if things go wrong.  Beyond that I am not sure.


texts:
Zombyfycation lets me summon a lot of zombies, but from time to time casting it kills most of them. It's quite frustrating to have that happen when I'm at eight zombies and trying to raise three more with the last scraps of mana left, only to end up companionless and out of mana.

Looking up several wikis provided me with texts that said the spell only allows a single zombie. This is confusing, because either there is a very obvious, game-breaking bug in the main skill of the Fleshsmithing tree (highly unlikely with any sort of maintenance on the game), or the texts have not been updated. The spell has a range of 3x3, which also makes no sense if it was meant to only raise at most one zombie.

What is causing the dispels, and how should I prevent them?

texts: Is there a downside to throwing Greater Rift time trials?

texts:
Greater Rifts only drop loot from the Rift Guardians, but that loot is quite good, and apparently even level 1 Rifts drop Torment-only loot.

Since the Rifts get progressively more difficult, and completing a Rift run results in choosing between increasing the difficulty of the next Rift, or trying to upgrade a Legendary Gem (and thereby ending your Rift run, necessitating finding another Keystone of Trials), what is the benefit of doing well in the Realm of Trials?

If I throw the Rift trial, and start at a level 1 Greater Rift, won't I wind up with more loot per Keystone of Trials I find?

Is there a benefit to advancing as far as possible in the Trial that I'm missing?


texts: Is it possible to realistically use Lydia for the entire game?

texts:
I'm concerned with the information I've gathered about followers, namely the tidbit about how a follower's stats and level are set to yours when you acquire them. I've heard of console commands that supposedly reset a follower, allowing you to level them up with you as you progress through the game, but I don't play Skyrim on PC.

That being said, I got Lydia when I was level 3-5, I don't remember, and I really like her. I'm not sure why, and it's not important, but I'd like to keep her with this particular character at least, for his entire playthrough. Is there any way playing on Xbox 360 or PS3 to allow her to level with me? I'm aware I can continuously upgrade her gear, but I'm concerned as I reach the end levels that won't be enough to keep her up-to-date with the encounter scale.


texts: Can you see if a card was created by an Unstable Portal or Webspinner in the log?

texts:
As you may know Hearthstone has an output_log.txt, which you can enable in the log.config. Here you can see a whole bunch of information about the game, which cards have been played and so on. Is there a way to see if a card was created by another card's effect, such as Unstable Portal or Webspinner? I know that you can obviously do this by looking at the card in-game, but I need to read it from the log, if possible.

I know this is a long shot, but if anyone has some information or ideas on this, please let me know.

texts: Minecraft Java-Related Error - java.lang.NullPointerException: group

texts:
I have two different problems that are most likely related:
1 - Null Pointer Exception on Multiplayer
I've been playing Minecraft for around 3.5 years now, but this is the first time I've experienced this error (I've dealt with and solved numerous others). For MC 1.11.2 and below (unmodded), multiplayer works perfectly fine. However, MC 1.12 and MC 1.11.2 Optifine multiplayer does not work. The same error occurs for every server I try to join. The error is as follows:
15:32:56    bkp Connecting to mc.hypixel.net., 25565
15:32:56    bkp Couldn't connect to server
java.lang.NullPointerException: group
    at io.netty.bootstrap.AbstractBootstrap.group(AbstractBootstrap.java:84)
    at gw.a(SourceFile:276)
    at bkp$1.run(SourceFile:59)

I have: uninstalled all outdated Java versions, updated Java, allowed all Java processes in Windows Firewall, reset the ".minecraft" file, reset network adapter twice, logged out and logged into Minecraft multiple times, done some stupid internet rituals that include trying over and over and joining servers slower, uninstalled McAfee and Avast! (they had already been uninstalled, I checked), and restarted my computer after each of these methods. Nothing is working, and since 1.12 came out, I can't join any 1.12 servers. Are there any methods I may have missed? I have F-Secure Safe and Qustodio, neither of which SEEM to be causing any problems.
2 - Singleplayer crash when loading world
Minecraft single player does not work either, not in MC 1.11.2 or in MC 1.12 (I have not tested other versions). I can create or join a world, the game output shows no errors, the world loads to about 97%, then the game freezes and eventually crashes. This may be related to problem #1, but it is not as urgent, as I typically play on multiplayer anyways.
I have searched and troubleshooted from results on Google for around a total of 8 hours for two days, but nobody seems to have my exact problem. I need help.

Is the DPS split amongst everyone on the frontline or do we each get some amount of damage reduction based on how many people there are?


texts:
Alternate Title: "How can I choose between The Raw and The Cooked?"

Cannibals are the main Reaper ground enemy you encounter in Mass Effect 3, so called because they devour the corpses of their fallen allies to regain armor and strength.

Disruptor and incendiary ammo both do an excellent job of killing them, but they leave a pesky buffet luncheon lying around for any Fine Young Cannibals who come along. I'm Not Satisfied by this. I don't have Liara's warp ammo (because She Drives Me Crazy), which means that I'm left with Cyro ammo, which - in contrast to The Flame and disruptor rounds - shatters enemies if I kill them while they are frozen.

It seems reasonable to assume that once an enemy has been shattered, It's O.K. to ignore him, but what if all I'm doing is turning them into convenient, bite-sized chunky salsa for their compadres to enjoy?

texts: Why does my Plague of Toads make me croak?

texts:
When my Witch Doctor hit level 11, I decided to take my Plague of Toads for a spin.  However, a typical encounter for me with Plague of Toads goes something like:

I see a mob of enemies
I summon several waves of toads
The toads meander outward in a rough 45 degree arc
The enemies walk right through my toads
I am repeatedly pummeled by said enemies :(
I switch to some other skill and mutter "stupid *&@#! frogs" or somesuch under my breath

The other primary skills for my Witch Doctor thus far have been far more effective at dealing damage, both up close and at range.  I keep thinking that perhaps it's a situational attack, but my other primary skills have been pretty generally useful.

What am I doing wrong with Plague of Toads?

texts:
I've been playing Street Fighter since SF2 but I was used to only mashing buttons randomly and trying to finish the playthrough and see the ending thanks to limitless continues or easy modes. Recently I've decided to play like a real man. I've started SSFIV AE from the easiest difficulty and whenever I finish the playthrough without continues, I've increased the difficulty (I don't know is it the right way to improve myself but seems working for now). Lastly, I've finished very hard difficulty and now I'm trying to finish the hardest.

My problem is, whenever I start a combo and try to finish it with a super/ultra combo, I end up with a Shoryuken and lose all my momentum, even getting easily punished(I've lost lots of matches just because of this). Whatever I do, I can't get over with this problem. I'm playing with a regular Xbox controller-like gamepad and my character is Ryu.

texts: Does zero-damage hit to a zombie still trigger the "summon"?

texts:
I got an idea for improving efficiency of an XP farm, but I don't know how viable it would be.

Considering Snow farming is easy, gathering a bunch of snowballs is quite trivial. They could be launched manually or through a dispenser with a pressure plate, or any other means. Augmenting the sky farm that way would significantly raise the number of zombies spawned, and as result, the farm efficiency. The question though is - does the zombie have to be damaged or merely hit to perform the "summon"?

and it's been working beautifully. I've just installed an HD Texture pack with MCPatcher, though. When I load Minecraft normally (either with a paid account or with a generic "Player"), the textures work fine.

Using this line seems to go around the Patcher though and I get some bad textures, important ones are missing, like fire animations and portal blocks. Anyone know Java well enough to edit this line to launch allowing MCPatcher to do its job AND set a custom name?

Sadly, every times I tried to rob a bank, it ended with the dreaded black screen and FBI arrest... Could it be linked to the fact that I connect directly to my false account? if so, how long should I wait before connecting to it, to transfer money to my private account?

texts: If you volunteer recycling trucks to another city, does your city have to process the recyclables?

I have volunteered a few vehicles around the region to pick up their recycling and reduce their garbage load. What I want to know is...

Is the recycling that I am picking up in other cities actually coming back to my city for processing?

If it is, it seems like a great way to make a profit by collecting more recyclables, and then selling the plastic, metal, and alloy on the market. However, the recycling center does not have much storage, so it would seem that it would fill up pretty quickly if it were actually taking in all this stuff.


texts: I've been playing on a 1.16.4 single player world. I've been working on getting some OP villagers and I need to get two different enchanted books. I'm breeding them because the village was left with only two villagers. I'm doing it again since my fifth villager didn't become a zombie villager when I tried to turn him to one so I can get the good discounts. I've bred my other three a few times, once with one pair and twice with one from the other pair and my third one. I tried this time twice with the second pair and then tried with the pair I haven't before but it didn't work. I just thought to try with my fourth villager and another one. It didn't work and the clouds appeared above their heads. I was confused because I thought that you got the cloud effect because of the same pair of villagers have been bred too much together, which is why I tried with different pairs. I tried again after giving them potatoes again but the clouds happened again. Is it because one is a librarian and an unemployed villager? I'm very sure that I've set it up correctly but I could be wrong, so that's why I've come here. I really need this so I can get better armor to fight the Ender Dragon. The picture is the set up, not very complicated but it has worked so I'm pretty sure it works.

I've made a execute command to check if the player trying to enter is holding the correct item.

/execute if entity @a[nbt={SelectedItem:{id:"minecraft:tripwire_hook",Count:1b,tag:{display:{Name:"{\"text\":\"Hotel Master Key\",\"color\":\"white\",\"bold\":true,\"italic\":false}"},HideFlags:63}}}]

I've also made a command that kills the armor stands if the first command was true using a chain and conditional commandblock.

/kill @e[distance=..3,type=armor_stand,name=Main Door]

How would I make it so that the door would become re-locked (armor stands would come back) after 3 seconds?

Please don't suggest that I should use a iron door.

texts: Enchant Weapon Property: Favor Attack Speed or % Damage?

So I got this new weapon:

However, it lacks a socket, so I need to replace a primary attribute with a socket. My question is which primary property should I replace? It comes down to increased attack speed or an additional percentage of damage. On a more general note, on a weapon, sould I go for attack speed or %damage ?


texts: CS:GO - Recognize party members during a match

texts:
Is there a way to easily recognize party members during a match? I do not mean team members, but members I started a group with ingame. It's hard to spot them visually amongst the other team members, so it would be nice to either be able to always show player names, without pointing on them, or otherwise highlight group members.
Is anything possible in this regard?

texts: In the "Enderal" story mod, is the player Tealor's abandoned child?

texts:
In the standalone story expansion to "Skyrim"- "Enderal" the main character is a halfbreed, child of two human races.

In one of the "visions from family home" you can see your "daddy" beating your mother accusing her of being unfaithful - we never actually see her face, but at least in my case my father is displayed as a pale-skinned (like most citizens of Enderal), while my character was dark skinned half-Arazealer.

Now, the back story of the paladin Tealor (the leader of the Order and main NPC of the game) is that after the death of Light-Born (immortal mages worshipped as gods, that Order was supposed to protect) he was imprisoned by his son, that was leading the revolution against theocracy.

But then towards the end of the game, we find bit more information about Tealor's child:

  Tealor had an affair with one of the Light-Born and after she got pregnant he decided to leave the child with one of her servants, to avoid the scandal, that would cost him his position in the Order.

Since again, we can't clearly see the face of Tealor lover's face, we don't know what race she really was.

So my question is: Has Tealor had two children, one abandoned with a servant, one leading the revolution or was it one and the same child? And if the former is true, was the player that abandoned child?


texts: What is the purpose of the ropes tied on roofs?

texts:
So every interactable object I've found in the game so far has had some purpose.  Ropes tied to anything means you can shoot it with a rope arrow and something will happen.  Shooting at one tied to doors will allow you to break them down.  Shooting at a hanging object (e.g., boxes, torches, etc.) will cause it to swing.  One tied to a large pillar means there's a mounting point nearby to create a rope bridge.

But I haven't found the purpose of ropes tied to roofs.

Shooting it when standing on a suspended box doesn't cause you to swing (although it goes against all physics).  Shooting it from the ground does nothing as far as I can tell.

What do these things do for me if I shoot at it with a rope arrow?


texts:
One rather frequent outcome of item enchanting in Torchlight 1 used to be, especially in the late game, adding sockets to items.

My previous weapon, the Extension Sword (highlights: 452-838 dps physical + 285-556 dps between fire and poison, -9% fumble chance, +20% fire damage, 2 meh enchantments) had a socket that was very well spent with my Eye of Gallo (93 health stolen on hit; hit multiple enemies, gain 93 health multiple times!)

The weapon sadly got superseded by my Beast Hammer of Clouded Vision (562-1055 physical, 90% interrupt chance, 10% blinding cloud), which unfortunately has no sockets.

Can I fix this somehow? I really started to rely on the combined effects of Forcefield (damage absorption) and health steal as a cheap and safe way to heal myself, but the days seem over now. I can still go back to the previous gun, except the general poison theme of Act 3 means giving up half of the elemental damage on that Extension Sword and... yeah, I'd just be happier with rescuing the gem and cramming it on the Hammer somehow. Is it possible?


texts:
I just played my first ranked match online in BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, and my opponent did a chain-throw with Jin that I couldn't escape. It was the same sequence of hits over and over, freezing me in place each time to set up the next one.

I'm sure that the game is well-designed enough that I could have gotten out of it if I knew what I was doing, but I didn't know what I was doing, and lost to it.

How can I counter the throw so that I can escape this trap?

texts: Is there a card which can be used to substitute for King Krush?

texts: I am attempting to put together Yong Woo's Survival Hunter a.k.a. Sekrit! deck. The deck utilizes the legendary card King Krush (8/8 Charge for 9) as a finisher. I have yet to obtain a King Krush, but am looking for a substitute. The best I have come up with is utilizing a Reckless Rocketeer (5/2 Charge for 6). Obviously the Reckless Rocketeer doesn't have the body or damage of King Krush, but will still deal a fair amount of damage quickly. Aside from the Reckless Rocketeer is there a solid substitute for King Krush in this deck?

texts:
Prior to v17.4 in 7 Days to Die, the Blood Moon Horde lasted from 22:00 to 4:00. After 4:00, horde zombies stopped spawning and existing zombies reverted to normal behavior.  In Alpha 17.4, I've started a new random gen single player game, and had my 7th day horde. At around 1:20am, no more zombies spawned. I know there's a limit to the number that can spawn at once, and I've seen them start wandering before, so I jumped down and ran around looking, and couldn't find a single one.  I did notice, however, that the color of the moon was no longer red. I've not seen this in any patch notes that I can recall, but does the color of the moon indicate when the blood moon horde is over?
As you can see in my screenshot, the sky seems the normal horde-night orange/red color, but the moon is grey.  Could this be the indicator?

texts: Why do my Dragon Rushes sometimes result in no damage?

texts:
When I use a Dragon Rush against an opponent, most of the time it executes an animation of my character pummeling the opponent and then knocking the opponent into the air, with the Rush itself doing some damage. However, sometimes when I use it and it connects with the opponent the animation changes to both characters throwing punches and the result is both of us disconnecting with no damage done.

What dictates whether the Dragon Rush is countered?

If not, what if Mercy just walked right behind Roadhog at the last second (after McCree starts firing but before its her turn to die, which I've seen happen with heros going behind walls just at the last second)?


texts: How do I keep my rockets from blowing up the pad without launch stabilizers?

texts:
Since 0.25, it is now possible to destroy buildings at KSC. Unfortunately, this appears to also mean it's now possible to overload your launch pad. On several occasions, even with relatively small craft, I've found that the launch pad simply collapses under the weight of my rocket.

Right now the pad collapses under anything larger than a rocket that's simply made to orbit Kerbin. It doesn't seem right to me that something as relatively small as the one I've made for the first Mun landing of this save should break the pad.

What is it that causes this? Is there now a weight cap for the launch pad - if so, what is it? Later in the game, I know I'll be able to work around the issue with launch stabilizers (I've done so in other saves), but right now that's not an option. Are there other workarounds?


texts: Cutting my kid loose from my PS account?

texts:
So my kid is 15 now, and heavy into Destiny and other such games.

We've had a PlayStation for years, and when you first started needing an account, I created one for me, and the kids played on my account. When we started playing Diablo together, we all needed our own accounts, so I created them sub-accounts under mine.

Now, he's playing Destiny (and other games) on his own (with his friends), and for all intents and purposes, he's me... using my name, etc. I don't have a real issue with that, but I'd like at some point for him to be able to use his own account (so his friends don't pop up messages while I'm watching PSVue on my account, etc)... is there any way to transfer all of his stuff over to his own sub-account? I know that he could start from scratch, but at that point, he'd lose all of his DLC and all of his progress, etc.

Any thoughts?

texts: How to install a game to a Steam library using steamcmd

texts:
In principle, steamcmd is able to download any game. If used without force_install_dir, the game goes into the main library correctly.

But if I specify another library using above mentioned parameter, the game never ends up in the library like I want it to.
For example if my library used to look like this:

/media/crossoss/steam/linux/
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/common
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/downloading
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/libraryfolders.vdf
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/temp
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/workshop

with no games installed and I specify force_install_dir /media/crossoss/steam/linux then the result looks like this:

/media/crossoss/steam/linux/
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/libSteamworksNative.so
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/libsteam_api.so
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/Snuggle Truck.x86
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/Snuggle Truck_Data
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/Snuggle Truck_Data/level0

[...]

/media/crossoss/steam/linux/Snuggle Truck_Data/sharedassets3.assets.resS
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/startgame.sh
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/appmanifest_111100.acf
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/common
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/downloading
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/libraryfolders.vdf
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/temp
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/workshop
/media/crossoss/steam/linux/SteamLauncher

If I specify force_install_dir /media/crossoss/steam/linux/steamapps/common then the whole stuff goes directly into common instead of into linux (still not in a subfolder like it should) and no appmanifest_111100.acf file is created anywhere.

Unsurprisingly, the game doesn't launch that way (if the appmanifest is missing, it's not even displayed as installed, with the appmanifest there but the game files in the wrong place there is a "missing executable" error).

Workarounds or ideas how to get it right? Can I temporarily symlink the steamapps folder from the library where I want the game into the place where the steamapps folder from the main library is?

I'm currently attempting to play Touhou: the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. I've figured out that my own Spell Cards are what I use for my bombs, but when I go to Score in the menu, I see that there is an entry for Spell Cards. Clicking on that, there are 64 entries, some of which I've acquired, so I'm assuming this is a collection of some sort.

The problem is I don't really know how I collected them and what exactly the numbers next to them mean. For example, next to No. 02 Night Sign "Night Bird", I have 1/2 while for No. 03 Darkness Sign "Demarcation" I have 2/2.

I assume this means that for No. 02, I have 1 out of the 2 "cards" available to collect and for No. 03, I've collected all the cards available to collect. How do I know which I have and which I don't? How do I collect these things in the first place? I've noticed them pop up during the boss fights, but what are the specific criteria I need to meet in order to successfully collect them?

Edit: And now I've just noticed after doing some more (failed) playthroughs that these numbers are... increasing? The numbers for the cards I listed are now 3/4 and 4/4, respectively. I thought the last number was increasing with my playthrough attempts, but I've got some at 3 and some at 5 when I've currently tried 4 times, so I'm not sure if this is correct.

texts:
My girlfriend and I only play in offline couch co-op mode. I play a Barb currently at L67 and she plays a Wizard at L69. We're playing ROS on Xbox360.

What we've noticed is that often a chest or treasure goblin or even a low-level boss (champion?) will spit out a lot of loot that goes only to me (that is, it's designated as mine and goes to my character, no matter who picks it up). I'm almost always player 1, but last night, we set her as player 1 thinking that might make a difference, but it didn't.

This happens easily >50% of the time - I get all, she gets bupkus. There's been very few times where SHE got all of the loot, with the remainder more or less evenly distributed between us. It's not just rare or legendary loot - we've seen loot piles that ended up being almost all gems that still all went to me.

Since we've eliminated the possibility that everything is going to Player 1, is it possible that I'm getting all of the loot because my level trails hers a bit? What other factors would contribute to this?

texts:
As the title states, what are the advantages to having a game on your Steam account versus having the game outside of Steam (especially for MMORPG games)?

Take Rift for example. Rift recently became available on Steam again and I've considered the possibility of re-installing the game just to have it on my Steam account, however at the same time I don't see any advantages to doing this (aside from getting to see the total number of hours I've played the game). Is there something that I'm missing?

For those that aren't aware, Rift as an MMORPG could be installed on any computer out there, signed in with an account, and all of characters on that account would be where they were last left off at. Cloud servers don't apply to a game such as this.

I recently decided to start playing racing games again but of course my old 360 steering wheel won't connect to my Xbox One.

Found out there was a work around by streaming through windows 10 so I tried that but getting weird bugs. The steering wheel (controller) is calibrated with windows 10 and inputs seem fine when testing but as soon as I start streaming the controller starts acting funny.

It appears as if the left directional arrow is constantly pressed even though this didn't happen in windows test. I ma able to use the up and down arrows on controller but none of the other buttons. Feel it may be a mapping issue but can't seem to find anywhere on the Xbox companion app to reconfigure.

Any ideas?

texts:
In the level "Square Root" of VVVVVV, I activated the terminal, and the following text appeared: "?SYNTAX ERROR".

For reference, I've included an image of the terminal text above, and an image of the map below (the white box in the bottom left corner of the map is the location of "Square Root".)

Is this supposed to be the terminal text, and if not, what is the terminal text supposed to be?

texts:
I've just reached the point in Dragon Quest IX where I can start exploring the Treasure Map dungeons, and I completed the one that the game gives you as a "starter".

It appears that the floors are (semi?) random, and can be fairly large, so I just wanted to check if there was any point in fully exploring each floor, or if I should go down as soon as I find the stairs to the next level. I did run into one blue chest, but the contents of those are never very good, so those aren't particularly exciting. Is there anything more significant to find, or is it best to just reach the boss as quickly as possible?


texts: Do purple monsters have a higher chance of dropping magic  and better quality items than white monsters?

texts:
Since the 1.03 patch, it often feels as the purple monsters (unique monsters, often related to quests (e.g. the monster which spawns when you retrieve Zoltun Kulle's head)) drop really crappy loot. Oftentimes, they only drop a couple of gold piles. Do purple monsters have a better chance of dropping magic, rare and legendary items than white monsters?

To clarify what I am looking for:

Is the chance to get magic (or rare/legendary) items any greater from unique purple-named minibosses than from normal white monsters?

I started my game already so I'm wondering if I download the add-on now will I need to start over to play it? Or will it show up during the game even though I've started?


texts: Is it safe to perform a trick after the ramp at Rainbow Road?

texts: I have read a few website pages and watched some videos on Rainbow Road (Wii) and some say there is a risk of falling off the track if you perform a trick. Is this true, and if it is, how can I avoid it?


texts:
My little Kerbonaut is currently circling the planet in a stable orbit, and seems to be having a grand ol' time with it. You should see the smile on his face. He's been circling now for what looks like 5 days, and is still smiling. Poor little guy doesn't know what I have in store for him.

I could bring him down. I mean, he does have some science for me that I need for the next upgrade, but that doesn't sound like as much fun. I'm pretty proud of the little guy for making orbit. Can I just leave him up there forever, or will he eventually die of starvation or something? And if I do leave him up there, and decide to one day retrieve him (dead or alive) can I dock with that and extract him and (more importantly) my science from the ship, even though it doesn't have any docking equipment?

texts: How to block people that aren't your friends?

texts:
I've got a person in Miitomo that is pretty annoying. I want to block her, but I have no idea how. I tried:

blocking her from the comments section, but holding the comment only shows a report button, not a block button.
blocking her from the friends list of a friend, but it only shows a button to send a friend request.

She unfortunately isn't showing up in my suggested friends, where blocking is actually possible without adding her as friend.

How do I block someone on Miitomo if he/she is not in my friends list and not in my suggested friends?

texts:
I am level 10 in Pokemon GO and I caught two of the same Pokemon very recently, both of which can be evolved three times.

One Pokemon has a CP of 210 with a moveset of power (10,15). I also have another of the same Pokemon with CP 140 with a moveset of power (10,25).

I need to decide what to evolve. Some people tell me go with CP and the others tell me look at the "bar" (which I do not understand how I can derive implications on what to derive by looking at the Bar above the Pokemon's head because the bar is same for all of that type of pokemon except it is further down for the one with higher CP). Moreover, others tell me I need to evolve both first to see which one is better.

What should one consider before evolving and when should I use the power up button?

texts:
I had two ingot presses. I'd like to sell one, but I can't find a way to split the stack. This answer provides a work-around involving placing stacks in crafting screens, but that doesn't work for the crafting items. Placing my smelters in the smithing kit didn't separate them. Placing them in themselves didn't do it. Placing them in the Lutefisk Cube turned them both into lutefisk!

I'd like to avoid another lutefisk incident. How can I split stacks of crafting items?

I recently started Terraria in hardmode on PC. I've powered up a bit and I'm confident on taking down the Eye of Cthulhu, but I'm quite unlucky in finding the suspicious looking eye's in deep underground chests so I planned to craft them myself but I'm unable to find any Demon Altars in the corruption.

I'm kinda new to the game so it would be helpful to get some pointers on how to find a Demon Altar in my world.

I've also tried exploring some chasms in the corruption but they always tend to go only few metres deep and I'm unable to find anything down there.


texts: How do I track how much time I spend playing games on Windows?

texts:
I'm aware that various platforms, like Steam, keep track of how much gametime you accumulate. The problem is for those of us who use half a dozen game store platforms, or even standalone games, there is no easy way to easily track each week how much time you spend gaming across all of these.
Windows 10 does have a built in "Family Options" which indicates it can keep track of/limit screen time as well as produce "activity reports", but I'm a single person. I don't really want to create a "Family".
Is there a Windows 10 API or system that can show me how much time I spend gaming on Windows 10 each week?


texts: If I gift someone on Steam, will they see my email address?

I purchased a game as a gift, selected their name, added a personal message and chose to send through their Steam Account in the options (not the send by email option). But they still receive an email with this option, I see. So will they see my email?


texts:
What I wanted to do was a system that would permit you to save your build in an area, in sort of a nothing is changeable, not even the items in a chest.
In fact, how it works is simple: the construction would be cloned into a safe area when the system is in "save mode".

I just want to add a last thing: with the /testforblocks (with an s)
 command, the system will detect if something was changed during the "save mode" and then change it back to what it was.

How can we change the comparing area of the /testforblocks command?


texts: How to carry over some transfer budget into new season?

texts:
In Fifa 15 career mode unfortunately transfer budgets do not carry over from one season to the next. Nuts, stupid decision, EA - makes no sense.

Well - I have read that many people claim the solution is to first shift all your funds from transfer to wages and then extend a contract of a player you don't want giving him a salary that is 100% the salary you can afford.

I tried this - In my case that's about 1 million euro on a player of about 65 rating. Problem is, that in the next season I can't seem to sell the player. Clubs show interest and I accept - however, they seem to never agree with the player on the terms of the new contract.

What am I overlooking at this glitch? Is there an upper limit on the wage relative to their rating?
Is there another option to carry over the budget?


texts: How do I update my Minecraft world without it recreating unexplored chunks to the new version?

texts:
I run a Minecraft server with an Earth map on 1.12.2. However, I downloaded the map and did not create it myself. I believe most of it was created with world painter, and because of this, many chunks have not been actually loaded by players.

I have tested updating the version it runs on in a singleplayer game, only to realize that the chunks that players had not loaded were regenerated according to the map's seed on that version. For example, if I loaded in, flew around a little and generated some chunks, and then I updated it to 1.13 from 1.12, it would regenerate everything I did not load in, erasing the rest of the Earth map.

Keep in mind, this quite a large map (around 40k blocks long and 16k blocks wide), so it would bring great pains to fly around and preload the entirety of the map before updating the version. Is there any way to keep the map the way it is and update it? Perhaps there is a way to protect the chunks I don't want to be regenerated?

texts: How do I bring a Mii to help my Mii that is trapped in the cage?

texts:
I just started playing Find Mii on the 3DS and I can't get very far at all. When I hire a wanderer most of the time it just runs away from the thing it encounters and then I have to use coins to get another one. At this rate I will never get far in this game. How do you get a Mii to play the game so I won't have to keep using my coins to hire a wanderer? I can't even seem to get any Mii's to come to my plaza via Street Pass in the first place. There was one Mii that I noticed was in my plaza but I couldn't use them to help in Find Mii.

Can someone explain how I can farther in this game because it's very boring and frustrating at the moment. Also how do I get more accessories for my Mii?

texts:
There is a quest in Windhelm where you have to find a white phial for the alchemist.

This quest is not a problem, after many days, you get a letter from him again to meet him at his shop.

Its this next part that is the problem.

He tells you he wishes to repair the phial, and needs you to collect some ingredients, Getting the Unmelting snow and powdered mammoth tusk was fairly easy, but there is a horrible glitch which has stopped me in my tracks for the third and final ingredient.

Its a Forsworn briar heart, needed to be taken off a certain person, so getting any briar heart will not suffice.

Now the person i need to get it from has been killed already earlier doing the red eagle quests, and if that weren't bad enough, he has no briar heart on his person, yet its still telling me that i must pick one off this person.

This is on the Xbox, so console commands cannot be used, Has anyone come across this also? and if so, have you got around it? does anyone have any info to help.

I have looked on the internet for solutions but there is not much to help.

EDIT: Quest works now.

This glitch seems to have been solved, a recent update must have found a way round this, the briar hearts could be eaten and then once all gone, they were not quest related, finally. and the quest could be completed too, as before he wouldnt accept your ingrediants, however now he does. thanks

texts: I bought a replacement disc of the Witcher 3 GOTY edition but it won’t load my saves?

texts: I’ve been unable to play the Witcher 3 goty edition for months as it has a scratch that makes it unreadable on my ps4. I’ve had it cleaned and that somehow made it even worse as my ps4 stopped even being able to identify just what game it was. So I decided to go and buy a new, identical copy thinking that it would just load up my saves but instead it downloaded the second disc and was displaying both discs in my library, even though they are the exact same. It also took about 30 seconds to download the new disc onto my ps4. I’ve deleted both copies off my ps4 and backed up my save to the cloud, which I then saved back onto my console and it still won’t let me continue my game on the new disc. I’ve made too much progress to restart the entire game and I just miss playing it. I’m normally good at troubleshooting things so I’m pretty stumped. Why it is doing this? What can I do?

Who do I give the alien medi-gel formula to?

texts: Do "special" arrow types do more damage than regular arrows when their special ability does NOT directly affect the target?

texts:
There are obvious cases where special arrows (fire, ice, shock, etc.) do more damage against an enemy:

When the effect causes additional "special damage" after the initial hit: Enemies whose gear gets lit on fire seem to sustain additional damage from the flames.
There's a clear rock-paper-scissors thing happening, where some element types do more damage against certain elemental enemies: A fire arrow seems to take out an Ice Wizzrobe in one shot, vs. many hits with regular arrows.

But I'm wondering if special arrows will do more damage when they don't seem to set off any "special" elemental effect. For example, when I shoot a shock or fire arrow at most bosses (like a Hinox, say), it seems that they're immune, or cancel the effect - the shock or bomb arrow hits and gives no indication of electricity or an explosion (presumably because those enemies are immune to being electrified or blown up?)

But do those arrows still do more damage, or do they essentially function like "normal" arrows when used against enemies immune to their effects?

texts: Is anything hidden under the sand in the Shipyard?

texts:
In the Shipyard in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, after defeating the Thousand Year spider thing and searching through the sand, Fi told me that there was a 0% chance there would be any clues in the sand and I should leave the area. But my intuition tells me there is a 75% chance that the great Level Designer Gods hid some special treasure for me here, like a Piece of Heart or a Gold Rupee or something... and Fi is just trying to divert my attention back to the actual plot. BORING!

Should I keep searching through the sand in this location? Is there anything useful to be found?

(If there is and you tell me, please use a spoiler tag for what the actual treasure is)

But after I get all the artillery set up, what areas are left uncovered? I assume the Glowing Sea is out of range, but I'd like a more precise answer. Also, if one settlement has more than 1 artillery, or if my target is in range of multiple settlements, do I get more strikes on my target? I already know that I can't target more than one spot at a time, no matter how many guns in range.

I have activated the steam library sharing with a couple of friends, and all works well, except for one game.

In fact, friend "A" has only the first free episode of this game, while friend "B" has the full game with all extra content; however, when I try to start the game from the sharing, I "see" in my library only the copy from "A", and therefore I only can play the first episode.

I there a way to use the game shared from "B" instead?


texts: What should I do with data and materials?

texts:
Since the latest update I collected a lot of "materials" and "data".

I found materials after destroying a ship and they often consisted of former parts of the ship, e.g. shield emitters or hull alloys.

Data was collected when I scanned other ships and in one case by finding a data beacon after following an Unidentified Signal Source.

These materials and data don't use any cargo space, but I don't know what to do with them. Selecting them in my inventory displays a message regarding engineers, but I haven't found any yet.

Where do I find engineers? What can they do with these materials/data?

If I don't want to give them my materials/data, can I sell them?


texts: How can the damage reduction from Armor in League of Legends not have diminishing returns?

texts:
The formula for calculating damage reduction from armor in League of Legends is

Damage Reduction = Total Armor / (100 + Total Armor)

It seems clear to me that this formula dictates that adding more armor has diminishing returns.

For example, let's say my champion has 50 armor, which gives damage reduction of 33.33% and I buy an item that gives 25 more armor; then my champion's total armor would be 75 and damage reduction would be 42.86%.  That means I saw a 28.6% increase in damage reduction (damage reduction was increased by 9.53%).  Now let's say I buy another of these items with 25 armor.  Now my champion's armor will be at 100 which gives damage reduction of 50%.  That means I saw a 16.66% increase in damage reduction (damage reduction was increased by 7.14%).

Therefore, from the first 25 armor item I bought got me 9.53% damage reduction, while the second time I bought the item it only got me 7.14% damage reduction.  It looks to me like it was 25.08% less effective the second time I bought it.  That screams diminishing returns to me.  Why would someone say otherwise? Would they say anything different about Magic Resistance?

Note:  This question was inspired by a comment thread which started off of this question: What is the formula for armor/magic resist reduction?.  I have heard similar insinuations made before, though, implying that magic resist and armor are somehow different in the department of diminishing returns (although I am not sure if that was implied in the comments on the related question).


texts: Who watches The Kagrumez Gauntlet from the balcony?

texts:
Yesterday I was completing The Kagrumez Gauntlet in Solsteim and, at the end, I noticed that there were three chairs on a viewing platform and that I had effectively been in some kind of arena potentially watched by spectators. There was a balcony with one stone chair at the front and two Dwemer metal chairs behind.
Has anyone looked up during the trials to see if there's anyone sitting there and if not, what is the role of the place? Did the Dwemer use it as an arena to test their subjects and to what end?

Is it possible that the better and more expensive floor, the rarer the dream jobs?


texts: Can the Ratchet and Clank "Burn Ring" Appear in other games?

texts:
There's a cheat/glitch in the first Ratchet and Clank game where you can glitch onto one of the race tracks whilst on foot. Positioning yourself under a bunch of crates (so they're off screen) and using the Taunter (a soundwave weapon) in their direction, allows you to break the crates for bolts. The crates, being off-screen, instantly re-spawn on the race track, allowing the players to continue to break them and receive the bolts. This allows you to buy the more expensive items such as the R.Y.N.O, as well as the Gold Weapon upgrades.

The drawback is that doing this for too long is that it can "burn" this ring into the disk which can make the game unstable or even unreadable.

What's the likelihood of something similar to happen in other games? The glitch in Ratchet and Clank was fixed up in PAL copies and the HD Re-Release would have that fix but I'm more thinking in terms of something like:

Example 1:

  In an RPG, being back and forwards in a small location to get random encounters to grind exp, even going so far as to have a controller or macro repeatedly press the confirm button so just the basic move is performed

Example 2:

  Having the game in a pause screen or menu where the game is effectively paused

texts: Are the recent Wolfenstein and Doom reboots set in the same universe?

texts:
I've just played Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, and noticed a number of strangely familiar elements from Doom (2016). Which makes me wonder, is the Doom reboot universe actually the Wolfenstein reboot universe 200 years in the future?

Below are some of the elements I've noticed so far:

1) Ubergewehr VS BFG:
The Ubergewehr, the most powerful gun in Colossus, has a similar missile explosion as the BFG in Doom. Not to mention the intel which states that the Ubergewehr draws energy from a third unidentified microportal source [Argent Energy?]. [I believe this has already been largely commented on by many netizens].

2) Samuel Hayden VS Ubersoldat and Da'at Yichud Head Transplantation Technology:
In Doom, we are told that Samuel Hayden, the UAC head, had his brain transplanted onto his present robotic body after suffering from a terminal illness. Hayden's robot body looks rather similar to the Ubersoldat androids seen in Colossus, with its tall and slender frame and skull-like head shape. Could they be historically related? Also, what if the technology that enabled Hayden's brain transplant has its origins in Set Roth's head transplantation technology as seen in Colossus?

3) Laserhund VS Hell Razer:
In Doom, we are told that the demons acquired human laser technology thanks to traitors like Olivia Pierce. I couldn't help but notice that the way Doom's Hell Razer fires its laser beam looks just like that of the Laserhund in Colossus! The suggested implications need not be stated...

4) Accelerated Energy Consumption VS Future Energy Crisis [somewhat speculative]:
In Doom, Man's tapping of Argent Energy was meant to solve an energy crisis on Earth. Now, seeing that the advanced Nazi technologies in Colossus (stolen from Da'at Yichud) appear to consume obscenely large amounts of energy (electricity to power the laser charging stations, diesel for vehicles and diesel-based weapons etc), could such an accelerated depletion of Earth's energy resources in the Nazi-occupied world of the late 20th century (as compared to our real-life timeline) have led to the burgeoning energy crisis faced in the 22nd century (Doom)?

Feel free to share your suggestions or any other things you guys may have noticed. Cheers!

In Subnautica, how do you harvest the Gaspods from the Gasopod creature?

I have only noticed these creatures doing two particular things: looking beautiful from afar, or being painful while up close.  And now that I have a torpedo launcher, I need to harvest these little "gas pod" things to make the necessary Gas Torpedo ammo.

How do I harvest this? Because the gas explosion just looks like unselectable dust.

texts: Skyrim - Crashed Hard disk lost all local saves, steam cloud backed up nothing?

texts:
I've put many hours into skyrim but recently lost all my local save game files in my documents etc, to a Hard Drive crash.

I reinstalled Skyrim hoping that steam cloud had something I could salvage from in the cloud saves, but there is nothing at all.

Anyone have any idea why this would happen?

I've checked after re-installing steam and cloud save feature is enabled . Library > right click Skyrim > properties > Updates > enable cloud save.

I'm nearly positive Cloud Save would have been previously enabled because all my other games are using cloud save and I've never disabled this feature.

Btw - i know i know, i should have backed up my Documents via Drop box etc. actually this happened as a result of installing windows 8... It managed to corrupt my backup external Harddisk... don't ask! I tried recovery software this and that nothing worked : ( I lost a tonne of stuff...

Okay, so Lux' passive marks an enemy everytime you hit him with a spell, so you have like 6 seconds to hit him with your AA to "ignite" it, which means you will deal some more magical damage.

Now I played quite some games with Lux and also read some Guides, but I still didn't figure these 2 things out ( because when I engage I just bring down my combo without looking for details ^^ )

Does her passive get "ignited" only by AA or also by her other spells?
Does her Ulti also mark the enemy ?
