texts: Are there graphical Nethack clients that connect to public servers?

texts:
So, there is the nethack.alt.org server where many users have gone and had their good times, using the text-based interface through a client such as PuTTY (or your favorite terminal client).

Anyway, I don't mind playing Nethack in console mode... However I do rather enjoy the graphical version far more.  Are there any clients available that make use of graphical tilesets, and can connect to a public server?

texts: Where can I purchase all the children's gift items?

texts:
I have just finished my base house in Hearthfire. I adopted two children. They are all nice, I can play tag with them and all. I have an option to give them gifts.

Where can I buy all the gifts? Out of my inventory I can gift them the Dagger, but rather not gift them that, they might hurt themselves.

Wikia says wooden sword, child's doll, children's clothing etc as potential gifts.

I tried Bits n Pieces in Solitude and Radiant Raiments in Solitude for the children's clothing. But they did not have it.

Where can I buy them?


texts: Minecraft and Hamachi: Connection timed out

texts:
For the longest time, I've been using Hamachi to play with 1 or 2 friends on Minecraft. As of about a year ago, the service has abruptly stopped working (despite me having not changed any settings or preferences, as far as I know) and it just throws a java.net.ConnectionExeption: Connection timed out: no further information: error.

I don't know why this is. The Hamachi network is set to be a Home network, I've tried using Radmin VPN as an alternative (which does the exact same thing), I've turned on the "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection", and I've had my friends try to host the server instead. No matter what I do, it returns the same error.

I have looked at other posts on Arqade and all around the Internet regarding people with the same issues, but none of the solutions that are replied seem to actually work with my situation. If anyone here has any idea why Hamachi is doing this, please help me out.

texts: How does the new type of secret room work?

texts:
In Wrath of the Lamb, I've come across a new type of secret room that works in ways I am not familiar with (primarily, unlike the standard secret room, it doesn't appear next to multiple adjacent rooms. Also, it's icon on the map is a darker question mark):

This got me wondering about just how does this new type of secret room function, primarily:

Does the room exist on each floor?
Is there any sort of logic to the room's location, or do I simply have to bomb walls at random?
Can it be exposed using items that expose the regular secret room, such as the spelunker hat?

texts: How exactly does cover work in Frozen Synapse?

texts:
How close do you have to be to cover for it to count as being "behind cover"?  It can't be just the presence of cover at any point between you and your opponent, or else it would be meaningless because you would both have cover at once.

So how close do you have to be to cover for actually count as cover?  Or is it that if you're close enough to cover it doesn't count as cover for someone else.

Ridiculous case: 2 machine gunners across the map from each other shooting through a window equidistant from each of them.  Who has cover?  Let's say the window is 1 pixel closer to the red gunner.  Who has cover in that case?


texts:
I'm looking for a website that contains up-to-date information on the best user-created Little Big Planet levels so far (for both 1 and 2).  A Google search turned up a bunch of top 10 lists from 2008, and some user-created sites that were clearly just a random smattering and which didn't have many of the best levels I already know about.  Best can be defined by the site either based on the in-game stats, but or by some person with a good editorial sense for what makes a level good (like the top 10 lists from 2008).  I actually prefer the latter, since the former is fairly easy to find in-game.

Does anyone know of such a site?


texts: How can one remove the ability to place bedrock?

texts:
I'm looking for a way to prevent placement of bedrock in survival. This may be achieved by an NBT TAG, a command block or else. If you know a /give command that will do the trick then that would be great.
A command block that destroys all bedrock is also okay.
I need this because I'm making a vanilla server that uses custom villagers as shops. However, the only thing you can't obtain in Minecraft is bedrock, so I will be using it as the currency. I need to make sure it is unbreakable though, so nobody will build a house out of bedrock or do something else of the sort.

If I've already got a skin, I'd rather sell or trade it - but I haven't found an easy way to tell if I already have it.  I realize I could go all the way to the nearest customization booth thing - but those are often not close.  Also, since I haven't tried it yet - will the game prevent me from wasting a skin customization I already have, if I try to use it?

texts: Can the RNG be reliably manipulated for better item drops?

texts:
I have been playing offline, and have started the perilous grind for covenant offerings. I read on here (see revision 38, it has since been removed and I can't link to it directly) that changing one's equipment periodically may help improve one's chances for obtaining items. I also saw some murmurings on other sites that this may be the case. I tried changing torso, glove, and leg armor out of desperation, and it might have worked.

I'm not sure if this was coincidence or not though. I'm also not sure if there is a specific thing I can do to reliably improve my chances (say, maybe changing my rings would be more effective, or maybe changing my headgear would be more helpful than just keeping the Symbol of Avarice on constantly).

Is there any definitive research?

Is this something consistent in other Souls games?

EDIT: I'm looking for ways to increase my odds of finding these items outside of increasing my Item Discovery stat. I may not have made that clear above.


texts: Problem with XBox One headset when switching controllers

texts:
I've had an issue with my XBox One controller and headset since day one and although it's gotten better with all the system and controller updates, there's still an outstanding problem.

When playing a game with friends in a party, my headset works perfectly. I can hear people, they can hear me and the quality is great. My controller's battery is almost dead so I turn the controller off to swap to my backup. The headset is plugged into the controller when I turn it off. I plug the headset into the new controller and turn that controller on.

As soon as I turn the new controller on, the headset no longer functions at all. I start hearing people through my TV and no one can hear me (because I have kinect mic turned off). I try turning the controller off and on again, I try unplugging the headset and plugging it back in. Nothing works except for turning off the console and turning it back on with the controller and connected headset.

Has anyone else had this issue and if so, is there a fix, am I doing something wrong?


texts:
So, in Forge 1.6 and previous, if you wanted to get a list of all items available in the game, you could just do

Items.itemList

This would return an Item[], containing all the vanilla items and all the items added by other mods. The problem is, in 1.7, as part of the new changes to the block/item system, they got rid of this field, in preference for the itemRegistry. My question is, has anyone yet figured out how to do the same thing in 1.7, i.e. retrieve a list of items for use? I'd imagine there has to be some way to do this, because mods like TMI have updated for 1.7. Only issue is they're closed-source.

If no one knows, then I suppose I'll just have to wait for NEI to be updated and look at his code.

texts: How exactly do I get my "Dog" renamed to "Dogmeat"?

texts:
I'm level 19 or so and my Dog is still named "Dog" and not "Dogmeat" like I'm seeing around the internet.

Through a little research I've heard things like "Just keep doing stuff for the minutemen" or "Mama Murphy will tell you the name of your dog."

I think I've done everything for the minutemen. I have the castle and now I seem to be granted endless quests of helping random groups around the commonwealth.

Mama Murphy also doesn't seem to care about my dog at all. I've told my dog to investigate her, but nothing. I've given her Jet and built her chair. Now she's asking for Mentats. If I keep doing stuff for her will she eventually name my dog?

Or do I need to do something else entirely?


texts: How would an empire be split into an empire, a kingdom and two duchies under Elective Gavelkind?

texts:
So, I was there, casually playing as Ragnarr Lodbrok of Scandinavia, comfortable in the thought that I would soon come to pass to Valhalla and leave the Empire to be divided by my four sons according to the laws of Elective Monarchy (where my eldest was the primary successor). And then things happened.

First of all, my first son, Sigurdr, inherited the Empire of Scandinavia and Kingdom of Sweden. My second son, Snorri, inherited the Kingdom of Danmark and the freshly succession-created Kingdom of Norway. He remained a loyal vassal of the Empire of Scandinavia. However, my third son, Gandalfr, gained independence with the duchies of Austergautland and Finland. As did my fourth son, Thorolf, with the duchies of Estonia and Vestergautland.

So, I did what any good loving brother would and I quickly proceeded to re-annex the domain of Thorolf to unify the land. And then things went even more wrong. First of all, Gandalfr declared a Subjugation War on the Kingdom of Finland (consisting of Karelia, Kola and Livonia) which he also surprisingly won. This resulted in an independent Kingdom of Finland (and Austergautland) under the rule of the third son. I had already reclaimed Estonia and Vestergautland by this time.

However, due to some anger-management issues the second son had, Snorri accepted a duel challenge from one of his vassals - and lost, forgiving his life. This resulted in the Kingdoms of Norway and Danmark being passed through four holders within a single year, eventually ending in the hands of the now-independent king Gandalfr of Finland, Norway and Danmark. Currently, the Empire of Scandinavia consists of Estonia and Sweden, while the third son rules the rest. I've already managed to place him as the heir to, in case of accidents.

For one, should this even happen?
For two, how would I go about preventing this from happening again?
And lastly, what is the best way of speeding up the reunification process on my end?

texts: Were the Korrealis Prince and Korrealis Sovereign speeders Bind on Pickup or Bind on Equip?

texts: Were the Korrealis Prince and Sovereign speeders BoP or BoE?  I ask because, my character having been poor at the time they were discontinued, I'm interested in buying them from someone now.  I've managed to get one of the two non-faction-specific Korrealis speeders, and have seen the other one listed on the GTN, so they were obviously BoE.  I haven't seen the faction-specific speeders listed though, and couldn't find any info about how they bind; hence, my question.


texts: What is the maximum amount of diamonds in one vein?

texts: Recently I have started a survival world on Xbox 360. I immediately found a cave with around 24 diamonds. It was in a odd location with a 1 by 1 hole leading to the cave. It also had a dirt pillar that was about 10 dirt blocks high. This was kind of suspecting that somebody did it because I was in creative earlier and I left to do something. So I was wondering what the maximum amount of diamonds were possible or if that was just a person who placed it.

texts: Playing Crusader Kings II at very high resolution

texts:
I've noticed that in Crusader Kings II you can select the 5K Retina resolution: 5120x2880. I did, and the game resolution itself was correctly set… but the interfaces were just downscaled. That is, they just had the same amount of pixels, which means that on such a high resolution, they were usually smaller than the ball of my trackball.

Searching around, I've found many mods who claim to enlarge the fonts, but do not actually work. And anyway I do not need to just change the fonts, I'd like all the interfaces to get bigger…

I guess the answer is "just no, lower the resolution", but maybe here someone comes up with a more creative and effective answer?

texts: How the Arcane Boots + Soul Ring trick works?

texts:
I've been playing Techies quite a bit, and in all the video guides I see on YT I see them doing this trick with the Arcane Boots and the Soul Ring that's never fully explained.

It looks like they're dropping the Boots, activating the Soul Ring, and then picking up the Boots again, and this somehow gives you more MP.

I tried it out in a couple of games and it doesn't seem to make a difference. It seems like a bug, and I'm not quite sure if it's been patched out, or maybe I'm just not performing it correctly. Could someone explain how this is supposed to work?


texts: How to fix difficulty glitch in the nether?

texts:
I opened a server to test out a plugin that I coded and some friends happened to join because the whitelist was off. They insisted we play normal survival, so I listened, because my plugin was more for convenience than for fun.
When we entered the nether, we noticed there was an inherent lack of mobs and we just kept roaming around in search of a nether foretress. We noticed the piglins weren't aggroing, despite our lack of gold armor or distracting gold ingots, so I went into creative mode and attempted to spawn mobs in the nether, which failed as they all vanished. I went to check the difficulty and it said it was in Normal (and I made sure of it by doing /difficulty normal). Despite this, the mobs weren't spawning, and eventually the difficulty swapped back to peaceful.
Then, I went to the overworld and proceeded to spawn zoglins, which succeeded, so I checked the difficulty and it was in normal. I know this glitch wasn't caused by the nether portal being formed because I remember clearly my friends dying numerous times to creepers in the overworld, so I have no clue why this is happening. I do remember creating the world in peaceful by mistake though so that could be a factor. The gamerule mobSpawning is on.

texts: Can the Paragon choice at the end of Thane's prayer differ based on certain factors?

texts:
Note: Here be spoilers. I couldn't really figure out a way to ask this without them.

My Shepard is a female who plays (mostly) Renegade and also romanced Thane in Mass Effect 2. I have no idea if this plays out differently depending on whether or not you gained Thane's loyalty in 2, but for the record, I did.

After the attack on the Citadel and Thane becomes hospitalized, you can go see him. Depending on the option when Kolyat asks if you want to join him in prayer or not, the lines of the prayer Kolyat says change.

Renegade choice (declining):

  Kolyat: Kalahira, this one's heart is pure, but beset by wickedness and contention. Guide him to where all hunters return, where all storms become still, where all stars show the path. Guide him, Kalahira, and he will be a companion to you as he was a father to me.

This version is obviously from Kolyat's point of view.

Paragon choice (joining):

  Kolyat: Kalahira, this one's heart is pure, but beset by wickedness and contention.

  Shepard: Guide this one to where the traveler never tires, the lover never leaves, the hungry never starve.

  Kolyat:Guide this one, Kalahira, and she will be a companion to you as she was to me.

After this version, Shepard asks Kolyat why the end of the prayer used "she," and he responded:

  The prayer was not for him, Commander. He has already asked forgiveness for the lives he has taken. His wish was for you.

How does the Paragon version of the prayer differ? I suspect that the line "Kalahira, this one's heart is pure, but beset by wickedness and contention" may differ based on whether or not your Shepard is Paragon or Renegade. In addition, how does the ending of this prayer change if you were either a female who did not romance him or were male?

Having to replay this scene over and over to screencap the dialogue for transcription may or may not have resulted in teary-eyed sniffles.

Fishing in World of Warcraft involves casting and then waiting for the fishing bobber to move, which is accompanied by the sound of water splashing.

texts: Is armor's DR additive and covering whole body?

texts:
I must be missing something obvious here, but the costumes seem to provide MUCH better DR than even the best armors: The Silver Shroud costume initially gives 42 DR (both normal and energy) while i.e. Combat armor chest piece only 15 and CA leg  - 8 DR.

If the total damage resistance from mix-and-match armor is the sum of all its parts and it doesn't matter where you are hit (leg with 2 DR or chest with 20) then those are comparable  - full, unmodified (and much more expensive) combat armor would give 59 DR, but if only the DR of hit body part is taken into consideration, then costumes are hands down better option.

So, which one is it? Is the DR of mix-and-match armor the sum of DR of its parts ? If no, whats even the point of taking such armors over costumes?


texts:
Just a quick question that is slightly complicated that has to do with command blocks and such.

Is it possible to determine where a certain block is placed in the world without knowing where it can be placed? In my case, I have an admin team (I am making a red vs. blue game), and for the admin team to teleport around, they must place a glass block on the ground. The admin can place the block anywhere therefore there is no set coordinates of where the block will be.

After finding the block, I can do the rest. It would be very helpful if you guys (or girls) could explain if this is in fact possible, and then how it could be achieved.

texts: Minecraft block detection for a specific block

texts:
Is it possible to use commands or redstone devices (or a combination) to detect for a specific block placed in a specific coordinate and output a redstone current if so?

For instance, if I place a stone block in the coordinates (1,2,3), a command block will execute.

I'm sure /testforblock could be useful, but I just can't figure out how. All that does is tests if a block is there; it doesn't do anything if that resolves to true.

Assume version 1.12, if that makes things easier.

Bonus points: Same thing, but detecting if a specific entity is in the supplied coordinates. Again, /testfor seems useful, but I'm unsure how.


texts: If I wanted to take a cat over an ocean, would it teleport behind my boat?

texts:
I found this on the Minecraft Wiki page for Ocelots:

A cat will not teleport: [...]

If none of the blocks on the edge of a 5×5×1 region centered on the player are transparent blocks with an opaque block below and another transparent block above.

Does this mean that if I tame a cat (which is not sitting), and boat across an ocean, the cat will be on the beach and not teleport near the water? If cats swim, will they drown after a while in the water, even if I use a lead?


texts: Are cookie yields from plants affected by different soils?

texts:
Different soil types offer different modifiers for "passive plant effects", ranging from -75% to +25%.

Some plants, such as Queenbeets and Bakeberries, have either a "harvest when mature for +X minutes/hours of CpS" or an "explodes into up to X minutes of CpS at the end of lifecycle" effect, which gives you cookies.

Are the yields from these plants affected by soil type's passive plant effect modifier?

In other words, do effects that involve harvesting a plant or waiting until it explodes count as passive plant effects?


texts:
In previous Persona titles, a certain enemy appears when you spend too long on one floor of a dungeon. The enemy is called the Reaper. It's level 99 and is intended to be able to kill your entire party swiftly, to motivate you to advance at a timely pace.

In Persona 5, there's a trophy for killing the Reaper. However, this seems quite difficult, as (from past experience), the Reaper has the strongest moves of all elements and resists all attacks aside from Almighty (I believe it punishes you for using Almighty moves, as well).

How can I defeat the Reaper?

texts: Why are Armor Penetration runes considered much stronger than atk speed runes?

texts:
In lots of forums, ArPen runes are considered the best marks (along with Insight) and AS runes are referred as "do not buy runes". I'm not quite sure why.

9 Tier 3 ArPen runes comes to 11.61 ArPen. Surprisingly, the more Armor an enemy has, the less effect these runes have. I did the maths:

Let's say you have 100 Attack Damage.

If your target has 25 armor (20% reduction), you will deliver 80 damage without ArPen runes.

With ArPen reduction of 11.61 you decrease an enemy's armor to 13.39 (11.8% reduction) and you deliver 88.2 damage. So your ArPen runes gave you 10.2% bonus dmg (88.2 / 80)

But if your target has, let's say 75 armor (42.9% reduction), you will deliver 57.1 damage without runes.

With ArPen runes, your target has 63.39 Armor (38.8% reduction) and you will deliver 61.2 damage, which is only 7.1% more than damage without runes (61.2 / 57.1).

150 armor (60% reduction) = 40 damage //
with runes 138.39 armor (58.1% reduction) = 41.9 damage //
difference = 4.8%

So we can say, ArPen runes will give you +5-10% extra damage depending on how much armor your enemy has. But AS runes will give you 11.88% more attack speed.

ArPen will further benefit from attack speed and damage. But it only stacks with more ArPen. AS will further benefit from damage and ArPen, but will only stack with more AS. And you will also benefit more from hit-to-apply-affect skills. Of course, AS will not help you much for champions with strong physical skills, like Riven or Garen.

It seems to me that ArPen is better for champions who use lots of AS items or have strong physical skills, but it will be a lot weaker for champions who use damage or ArPen items.

Did I miss something? Because if you find yourself battling against some heavy tank, like Rammus, you can end up having all your marks for ArPen giving you only some minor 3% bonus, instead of a nice 12% attack speed bonus.

Now what? I don't have a doctor or anyone trained in caring for wounded dwarves yet, how do I proceed from here?

Edit #1
OK I followed the various ideas (thanks!) but before a medical dwarf could get to him, someone else moved him a few squares cause he was in the way (heh), and he woke up. His "thoughts and preferences" still have

His left upper leg is broken. His right lower arm is broken.
His left lower arm is broken. His right upper leg is broken

BUT he is taking digging jobs and seems to be acting like everything is OK. He also now has a "health" page but it says No health problems. Is this a bug or something I'm doing wrong?

Edit #2
The problem was that the doctor had not taken a look at him and made a diagnosis. After he took a look, here is what I see (and it hurts to look):

left lower arm, bone

 Smashed apart

right lower arm, bone

texts:
I'm working on a capture the flag minicame in Minecraft 1.8.1. One of the features is automatically picking up flags when a valid player is in range. To accomplish this, I placed an armor stand inside each flag.

The goal is to get that armor stand to test for valid players (i.e. not on the same team, doesn't already have a flag, etc.) and set the block that was the banner to air. Each flag has a certain rotation value that is used to tell what team it represents - in this case, a rotation (ry and rym in the command) of 0 means the blue team. So, this command should tell all armor stands with a rotation of 0 to check for players not on the blue team who don't already have a banner.

Here's the command that isn't working:
execute @e[type=ArmorStand,ry=0,rym=0] ~ ~ ~ testfor @p[r=2,score_hasBanner=0,team=!blue]

And here's the error: Failed to execute '/testfor @p[r=2,score_hasBanner=0,team=!blue]' as Heads Up ("Heads Up" is the custom name of the armor stand, don't worry about why)

This error tells me that the execute command must be working fine, meaning it's a problem with the testfor command. However, using the testfor part on its own works perfectly.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

A sub-question: Is there a good website/forum for Heroes of Newerth that breaks down and explains all intricacies of the game mechanics (like "what orb effects stack").

So I entered the NTSB warehouse. There were several mercs in there. While I was fighting the first group, one of the mercs randomly takes off running and enters a side room, sealing himself in behind a door that I can't open.

So basically I am perma-stuck unless I load a savegame, or unless I'm missing something. Any tips?

Good news is my leafroof works, odd news is the machines exposed to the rain did not explode, but they invariably lit on fire. They continued operating just fine while on fire though. Why did they not explode?

texts: How can I build Deathtrap to make him the least annoying in team play?

texts:
Deathtrap can be annoying; he blocks shots, he can't be recalled and he has a tendency to go for melee attacks, drawing targets' aggro. This is particularly annoying in team play as I've noticed he'll either steal kills or aggro away enemies coop partners could use for Second Winds. It's also hard to shoot a target when you're down, your accuracy is low, and Deathtrap is right there between you and the target.

Which skills (if any) can I use to make deathtrap more of a "team player" or at least draw less aggro? I've noticed for example One Two Boom doesn't appear to draw aggression. Do long-range skills of his draw less/no aggro? His distance attacks certainly seem less in-the-way, so I assume that's a big part of it.

You proved the Camera works again by capturing an image of Purah! According to Purah, the album already has pictures from the past in it. Where could these have come from? Impa in Kakariko Village may have the answer.

I was wondering if I would be able to view the memory, however, no memory shows up. See image below:

I then spoke to Impa to complete the quest and receive the Captured Memories quest and sure enough, the memory is available.
Do I have to complete the Locked Mementos quest prior to being able to view the memories?  If this is the case, I just think it is unfortunate that you have to back track to Kakariko village before being able to see the memories even though the memories are on the Sheikah Slate. If this is not the case, are the memories available at certain times?

texts: How are unemployed villagers claiming job site blocks claimed by other traded villagers?

texts:
I've been struggling with building my own village for some time now and I've come to observe several phenomena that seem to contradict the official Minecraft wiki. In particular, I am witnessing villagers relinquishing their job site blocks for no apparent reason.

Here's my setup: Every villager of mine is within a 3x2 small "house", which contains its job site blocks plus a bed. Initially, I left a 1x1 opening in one of the walls so I could trade with the villager without having to open the iron door. This village is at least 300 blocks away from my main base where I might have some unaccounted for composters or stonecutters.

I have a single brewing stand in the village. I am 100% positive in that. And I have a single cleric that claimed that job site block after which I locked him into that house. So far so good. I've traded with that villager countless times and it has restocked its supply which confirms that he had claimed exactly the block I am talking about (as he is enclosed in the mentioned 2x3 "house", there is no way he could restock from a different brewing stand, even if there was one, which there wasn't.

I released 2 librarians from their houses so they can breed and multiply. I built several empty houses with beds, fed the 2 librarians, and sure enough, soon, I have several unemployed villagers running about. What happens next is completely baffling. I observe that one of the unemployed villagers is a novice cleric. A cleric? I have a single brewing stand which is claimed by the master cleric.

I go and trade with the master cleric and he can't restock meaning the novice has somehow claimed the job site block which had already been claimed. I had observed similar behavior a while ago, when all my villagers were roaming freely in a 40x40 hall. I had thought back then that perhaps for some reason my master villager went a little far away and for some reason was not able to pathfind or whatever to his job site and so relinquished it. But in this case he had nowhere to go. He was in his 2x3 house all the time next to his bed and job site block.

I kept observing this behavior until I decided to shut down the 1x1 opening in the wall of the houses. After that I don't seem to observe this behavior any more.

So, how come a villager that is forced to stand by a job site block it has claimed, ends up relinquishing it in favor of an unemployed villager if there is a 1x1 opening in the wall that no one can get in or out of?

I am playing Minecraft 1.14.4 Java edition, survival mode.

Has anyone observed similar behavior and how do you reconcile it with the following words from the official minecraft wiki:

  When the block is claimed, [its owner emits green particles[Bedrock Edition only]] and no other villager can claim it unless the owner relinquishes it.


texts: What weapons are stopped by Active Protection?

texts:
The description for Active Protection includes the following:

  When this system is activated it will sense incoming missile and rocket threats and detonate them before they reach the vehicle.

I've observed that Active Protection also blocks jets' and attack boats' cannons even though these are not really missiles and rockets. However, it doesn't seem to block rockets from attack helicopters.

Active Protection can be buggy -- especially when your vehicle is in motion -- so it's especially difficult to tell what it blocks and doesn't block in the heat of battle.

So what else (if anything) does Active Protection block? For example, would Active Protection protect you from C4 if it's active when the C4 is detonated? I know that wouldn't make any sense but the Active Protection implementation doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

texts: How to enable redstone wiring with a flick of a lever?

texts:
I'm looking for a solution to enable redstone wiring (completing a circuit) by flicking a lever. If you don't know what I'm asking for, imagine that sticky pistons could push redstone dust, and flicking the piston on and off would push that redstone dust in the middle of two redstone wirings to connect a circuit together.

One solution I thought of was to use a block in place of redstone dust to complete a circuit, but it seems to not work (the piston does not extend when powered).

texts: How do I improve my One Base Battlecruiser Build

texts:
Alright, so my favorite build against zerg is the 1 Base, Battlecruiser Build. This build has proved to be 100% effective against zerg, the only time I usually struggle is against randoms who end up zerg.

The build is supposed to look like this...

10 Supply Depot
11 Refinery
13 Barracks
16 Factory and Orbital Command
17 refinery
19 starport followed by fusion core
26 Battlecruiser
push out as soon as battlecruiser is up w/ hellions, marines, and SCVs.

Most gold and lower zerg players dont know how to counter this build even when they scout it. But with the addition of HoTS I noticed my build order is delayed and looks more like...

10 Supply Depot
11 Refinery
13 Barracks
17 Factory
18 orbital command
20 Starport followed by fusion core
28 battlecruiser

My first game with this went smoothly with me noticing the delay and just thought my macro was bad (because it was). Second game the zerg player countered either by accident or actually knew what to do, but after countering didnt keep pushing and I won (which is why I think he was just lucky).

Now I noticed that my build is going to be easily countered once I get back to the leagues I used to play in since this build has slowed down (or maybe my macro is just still bad).

Well anyways I switched up the build a tad to incorporate a single drop to stop the zerg player from expanding easily. Well it still worked cuz I effectively wrecked both expansions and stopped him from expanding from then on as well. But what I didn't like was that it was a very messy win.

Here are the details of the battle...

I used the same build besides the starport and fusion core being a few supply delayed because I built Widow Mines, and a medivac as soon as the starport finished. So my battlecruiser was delayed significantly, but I took advantage of this and expanded right as I started my battlecruiser (once I had all the Vespene I needed for the first Battlecruiser I swapped 3 scvs back to crystal). At this point I have a medivac 3 Widow mines a small force of hellions and marines (nothing a decent zerg player cant handle with a group of roaches). This zerg player did a good job of stopping my expand but I held him from my main with widow mines a bunker and effective use of my hellions. After fending off his first push I rushed my medivac with 1 widow mine and marines to his expands. I made him cancel his third and I dropped the widow mine behind his second and killed all his workers (it took him a long time to take out the widow mine and I even was able to kill a queen with it, so I dont think he noticed till the queen died from it, mostly cuz I used a banshee to kite his queen to it.). Although I did make the mistake of losing my medivac and marines to his static defenses in his main, I had stopped his economy easily. At this point I have a very sizeable force of hellions and marines and a battlecruiser which I push out with, wrecking his small force of roaches and what was left of his natural expansion. He was able to kill my hellions and marines easily but with my macro going, group after group of hellions and marines kept him on his toes untill he pulled out a bunch of mutalisks. Now I had 3 battlecruiser in the battle at this point so he didnt take the head on, he just focused on my bases which I didnt really need anymore since he couldnt win at this point. Lucklily with proper placement of about 4 widow mines and some baiting with a single battlecruiser I wiped out his force of mutalisks and he GGd.

Yah sure I won, but a more skilled zerg player with better macro and scouting could've stopped this easily. I would love some tips or advice on how to improve my build so i'm not just trying to throw random things at a player and hoping it works.

Note: Any Terran players who try this build, it is specifically ment for Zerg it will not work against another Terran or Protoss player.

  Is it possible in Minecraft to switch over from survival to creative in single player?

texts: Dealing with very fast (moving) fighters

texts:
As an ADC, what are some points to protect yourself from very fast melee champions (e.g. Udyr, Hecarim)? Even if you have a ward near your lane, unless you see them coming from far far away they get to you before you can retreat to your tower, CC the hell out of you and kill you very fast or chase you down and kill you. Many times they dove me under the turret, cc'ed, killed me and then just ran away with their insane speed.

Kiting against them is very difficult because they have a huge movement speed difference over me.

In team fights generally it’s OK because I stay behind my front line and I engage after they engaged on someone else, but in the laning phase (and to some point in early mid–game) they are so scary for me as ADC.

Did I somehow command them to do this with a shortcut command? I cannot think of a command that would do this, but I am new to the game.

I tried everything that I found in the internet to solve this problem and still I can't solve this problem.

Basically, what is happening is that whenever I log-in to iCCup and do the /netinfo command, my Client UDP which shows what port the game is using is shows up as some random number such as 19169 or 65532 and changes everytime I restart the game. Which is problematic since the port required to host games in Battle.net is 6112 and the game is not using that. I already forced in the registry for the game to use the port 6112 until 6119 and still the game doesn't use those aforementioned ports.

Any help is appreciated, thanks. :)

texts: How is total raw calculated for Science Pack 2?

texts:
I don't understand how the total resource needed is calculated to produce one Science pack 2 (green one).
According to the Factorio wiki,
Science pack 2 requires:

1 Inserter
1 Transport belt

Calculation for one Inserter
According to the Factorio wiki
an Inserter requires:

1 Green circuit
1 Iron gear
1 Iron plate

According to the Factorio wiki
a Green circuit requires:

3 Copper cables
1 Iron plate

According to the Factorio wiki
an Iron gear requires:

2 Iron plates

According to the Factorio wiki
Copper cable requires (to produce 2):

1 Copper plate (1.5 Copper plate to produce 3 units)

So, to produce 1 Inserter, we need 4 Iron plates + 1.5 Copper plates.

Calculation for Transport belt
According to the Factorio wiki
a Transport belt requires:

1 Iron gear ( requires  2 Iron plates )
1 Iron plate

So, to produce 1 Transport belt, we need 3 Iron plates.

Then, to produce one Science Pack 2, we need 7 Iron plates and 1.5 Copper plates.
Why is the total raw 5.5 Iron plates and 1.5 Copper plates?

But most importantly I want to take in the scenery and not be overwhelmed by all these writing overlapping each other, making the field screen clunky and horrible to the eye.

If this question has already been answered, please point me to a source because Google was not helpful.

texts: I've defeated the swarm/flock in the lab area, but the doors that should be enabled for progress aren't and it seems like I am stuck. While I heard the typical "end of combat" musical cue, the main combat music is still playing. Any idea how to get the game to progress passed this point? Otherwise, I am stuck...

texts: Is it possible to do all hat throws without using motion controls?

texts:
The moves listed out in the Basic Actions action guide suggest that most hat throws can only be performed using motion controls.

Upward Throw
Downward Throw
Spin Throw
Homing Cap Throw
(throwing farther)

However if you are clever enough, you would have found that you could do the Spin Throw using controls alone by first performing a Spin followed by throwing your hat. I've also discovered that you can perform a Downward Throw by first doing a Ground Pound immediately followed by a throw.

Most of the time, I'm playing in portable mode where the joycon are connected to the screen. Trying to do these moves this way is really awkward at times and would rather not have to do it.

Is it possible to do the other hat throws without using motion?


texts:
I did not use any Lucky Egg, also as you can see in photo below, there is already an additional 50XP from "Great Throw" then I'm surprised that I received a "Bonus" exp from catching a Magikarp.I tried catching other pokemon again, and there was none.

Where did this "Bonus" exp came from?

Boone and I have been murdering our way through the Mojave Wasteland for the last ingame month or so, and we're very happy together.  However, I've just reached Trading Post 188 and encountered Veronica, who claims to wish to join my quest. I know that there's a room in the Lucky 38 where companions go if dismissed, but I haven't been to the Strip yet, and I'm worried about what will happen to my murder buddy if I leave him alone in the wastes.

Where do companions go when dismissed in Fallout: New Vegas?


texts: Will I have all the new resources if I move my vanilla server map to Tekkit?

texts:
I want to upgrade my vanilla MineCraft server to Tekkit server. Is there a way to copy my current map form vanilla server to tekkit server? What I am looking for is a way to keep most of my stuff while regenerating blocks to fit Tekkit crafting needs.

As I understand, that copying map itself to bukkit isn't that difficult, but will the new materials be available?
