texts:
I know that I can extend the range of certain dashes with Flash while the animation is running (e.g. Shen Taunt+Flash, Gragas Bodyslam+Flash).

But is this behavior consistent through different types of dashes?

Auto-targeted
Direction-targeted
Ground-targeted
Unit-targeted

For Example:

Alistars Headbutt
Braums Stand Behind Me

So if I "jump" to a target can I use flash to extend the range of the ability or would it simply override the action?

If so, are there certain states of the animation (especially with Alisters Headbutt) I can do this and can I change the direction "mid-air"?

texts: Is there an easy way to be notified of a greenlit game showing up in the store?

texts:
When I find an interesting game on Steam Greenlight, I always make sure to follow it. For some reason, I was under the impression that I would surely be notified in some manner when and if the projects I followed make it to the Steam store. Turns out I was quite wrong.

Seeing how its a shame for me to not notice when things I actually wanted to buy are available for buying, I was wondering if there is any way to receive such notifications in a manner that would be easy to notice (something akin to the emails I get when games on my wishlist go on sale comes to mind).

Thanks in advance!

Instead, it always returns:

it returns

Command not found

Similarly,

listsongs

does not work and returns

texts: Does a Center of Reformation affect non-Christian provinces?

texts: I'm playing for the "For Odin" achievement, and I hold all of Denmark and Norway as a Norse country.  A Protestant Center of Reformation (CoR) was formed in Akershus, adjacent or very near 10 of my provinces. None was ever converted, even after all of Sweden was converted. Likewise, Scotland has a Reformed CoR and it has never converted Faroarna. I'm 70% into converting Akershus (about 15 years), and it has never tried to convert my provinces. I've also noticed that Orthodox Novgorod hasn't any converted provinces either, although it might be out of range of the CoR.  So does anybody know if a CoR can change none-Christain countries (or Orthodox)? Thanks.

texts: Do my crew members with negative stats decrease further upon leveling?

texts:
I've been working my way through the player owned ports minigame in Runescape.  I just recruited my first "Crows Nest Sniper" who came with a perk titled Slow, which sets his speed stat to -80.  This really isn't that bad, since -80 is rather small for the speed stat, however when a crew member levels, all of their stats increase by 10% of the base value.

When he levels, will this stat decrease further (in this case to -88), or will it remain the same or possibly even increase?  I'd like to know before I invest in him just to have him slow my ship down further.


texts: How can I get Mass Effect 2 DLC to work for a second Profile?

texts:
My Dad has recently been replaying Mass Effect, having brought some DLC for Mass Effect 2 myself I used my profile on his X-Box 360 (using X-Box Live) and re-downloaded the DLC, they are

Firewalker
Zaeed
Normandy Crash Site
Cerberous Weapons and Armour
Arc Projector

When I signed out and signed in as my Dad's profile(he doesn't have XBox Live) when I started the game it said the DLC was currupt and it listed all the ones I had downloaded.

So I signed back into my profile, re-downloaded and this time started the game with my account. No message and I got the long wait time after pressing start which I was expecting. I quit the game and signed out and started the game back up in my Dad's profile, I got the same message about the DLC being corrupt.

I repeated the process but before doing the step where I start the game in my Dad's profile I went to Extras -> Downloadable Content to see if the DLC was being registered by the game (I assume it was the long load time which was the sign) however I got a message saying that I had to be connected to the Mass Effect 2 Servers which I never got before. Needless to say when I switched profiles and started the game against I got the same corrupted dlc message.

Now I can not guarantee that the Internet will always be on when my dad plays. Also my dad's profile is set to be the one to auto sign-in on start up since it is his X-Box 360 and I really don't like people going into my profile (it's only on my dad's 360 to download game patches, despite internet connect Black Flag never prompted to update until I started it up in my profile).

I am wondering, how can I get the DLC I brought to be downloaded and working for my dad.

NOTES:

We are using a physical copy of Mass Effect 2 (dam ass disk swapping)
The DLC worked fine on my own X-Box 360 console (at least with Mass Effect 2)
Downloading Mass Effect 2 is out of the question, besides the waste of money my dad only has 3 GB Harddrive (only 2.1 GB free) and i still have yet to download the Mass Effect 3 Extended Ending which is about 1.7 GB
Letting my dad play my profile is out of the question, I don't want him getting any achievements I haven't gotten

texts: What's the latest point in the game that the hidden achievements can be unlocked?

texts:
I had started The Dreamhold several times since its original release in 2004, but never finished it until its recent release on iOS. This release has Game Center achievements, and at least three of them are hidden.

I discovered one of the hidden ones:

   Apparently as you progress through the game, there is an increasing (though always small) chance that going northeast from "Curving Hall at Pedestal" will take you to the Stone Spire instead of the Harp Chamber. Entering the Stone Spire unlocks the "Precarious Perch" achievement.

It's possible that there are more than three hidden ones total, and that I discovered other ones already without knowing it; I only know that I have two remaining.

So, without spoiling them directly (unless you use spoiler tags), I would like to know if the rest of the hidden achievements are attainable during the endgame scenario, which I define as follows:

   Seven masks collected. All wizard attire collected (knotted string, dagger, buckler, glove, cloak, and bracelet). All seven masks put into mirror. Flask of ink collected. Shred of black mask collected.

You can put the actual achievements in spoiler tags if you like, but I'm really just looking for a "yes" or "no" as to whether I can get the hidden achievements from this state. If "no", and you can give me clues as to how early I need to backtrack without spoiling the achievements entirely, that would be excellent as well.

No matter what part of space I fly, there always seems to be a Dominix not that far off.

So I have to ask, is the Dominix somehow better than the other T1 battleships in some massive way that makes it so popular?

Is it cheap? Low on skills? Amazing at PvE or PvP? Maybe people just love to take it strip mining.

Or is it just that the Dominixe fan club is following my around in space?

Cthulhu Saves the World is advertised to feature a combo-based combat system. Each attack carries a number of hits increasing a combo counter.

I just saw a tweet from Nintendo advertising pre-purchase for Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. I was about to buy it when I remembered that Club Nintendo is shutting down and they're going to stop including Coin vouchers in hard copy game boxes, and presumably at some point stop giving coins for linked eShop purchases too.

Now, there's supposed to be a replacement service. That means if I wait to buy Kirby until after it launches, I'll definitely get points in whatever that program turns out to be. But if I can get Coins today, I'd be happy to redeem them before the current program ends.

Would a pre-purchase today definitely get me Coins? Or am I better off waiting?

texts:
I have a couple of dwellers with maxed out stats by now. When they go out to level up, they will not take red radiation damage for several days. The maximum I have so far managed was around five days without needing a radaway.

However, when I send the same dwellers out the second time when they are already 50, they get radiation damage. It's slow and not enough for them to use a radaway on two days, but there is red damage.

I assumed with Endurance on 10 that would not happen at all. Why are they not immune to radiation?

He was last seen heading to the coal mine West of town. \\n\\nObjective: Investigate the coal mine West of the CrestGaurd slums."}']} 1

texts: Minecraft's FiniteWater mod: what is counted as “low in mass”?

texts:
I've recently installed DJoslin's FiniteWater 5.6 mod but am having a little bit of difficulty with how it works. The site says “Any water disconnected from the ocean and low in mass will be finite and react to changes in volume.” — what is classed as “low in mass”?
My plan was to block off a section of this river and drain it. I've worked out how the pipes work and the pump needs to be at the end of the pipe section, and it sucks water up as expected but the water level doesn't go down.

Do the same thing with a nearby smaller pool and it works fine, with the water being emptied out.

And finally, with a bigger (but shallower) pool than before, still no go.

I can plonk a “grate” down in a trench I've dug for example 2 and the water floods back in (annoyingly, regardless if there is a Redstone input to it or not) as finite water. Take out the grate and let water come in, that's all infinite water.

What is the largest body of water that is “finite” — or do you just need more pumps?

I am led to believe that the screenshots should appear somewhere below the directory:

%UserProfile%\Pictures\Screenshots\

Environment:

Windows 10 on AlienWare 15 laptop
Running on LG Widescreen monitor (2560x1080) from Nvidia graphics card in full-screen mode (NOT windowed)
NTW launched from Steam Big Picture

This was tentatively closed as a duplicate, but as a complete newbie to Steam I found this answer to be much more informative than the linked possible duplicate. Combined, they filled in a lot of details about the relationship between Big Picture and normal that I had been unaware of. I believe treating both questions as related but not duplicates is appropriate.


texts:
As a Dark Elf, I have a racial bonus of 15% fire resistance. Does this mean, I evade the damage in 15% of the cases, or I only take 85% thereof?

Furthermore, I have a fire resistance of 24 bestowed by my boots.

Seeing that these don’t stack and are of different formats, what does this again mean? 24 points detracted from any single hit damage, or something else?

Then, there are also potions that grant elemental resistance:

Do these work exactly like the resistances from equipment and stack therewith?


texts: Can I get candy for a Pokemon I haven't caught yet?

texts: Since you can get candy for feeding Pokemon in gyms, I tend to favor feeding Pokemon for which I need candy over feeding my own Pokemon. These are generally Pokemon that I have caught, but haven't yet collected enough candy to evolve. Would this work for Pokemon I haven't caught yet, allowing me to get a jump start on collecting candy to evolve them once I do catch them?

texts: When you summon a creature, what determines its place in the three creature slots? I've noticed that the game tends to place creatures with defender and reach towards the first slot, but I can't seem to completely figure it out, occasionally causing a creature to be killed prematurely. Sometimes even costing me a win, or challenge objectives.

texts: How to transfer save data into a new ps3 when the old one is not working?

texts:
I am well aware of the PS3's built in backup system and the cloud backup for PS plus users (not my case). Unfortunately, that's not an option for me, as my old PS3 bricked beyond repair, and i don't see a lot of advantage in getting a new one if i can't have my old save files back. I'm told if i just try to slide in the old hard drive the console will prompt me to format the drive, due to the host console exclusive encryption. I'm not desperate to save the games since i can re-download them, but the save files are really important for me.
This question has led me to believe a custom firmware would be the solution for this, yet i'm not too knowledgeable on this stuff, it would be my first time doing that sort of thing, and as far as googling went, installing a hybrid firmware or anything like that would be just the start of the process? I would appreciate very much a more thorough explanation as to how i'll be able to back up my data to a new PS3 using whatever method that doesn't require two working consoles.

texts: Unable to reduce the saturation of banners and leather armor

texts:
I'm trying to create a resource pack that reduces the saturation of banners and colored leather armor pieces (aka makes the colors less vivid).
I've tried to reduce the opacity of the overlay textures and while that kinda worked with banners it had no effect on armor. I've also tried changing the general map colors in the optifine configuration file color.properties since in the documentation it says that it should also affect the banner colors (but that doesn't seem to be the case).
If you happen to know how the game (or optifine) applies color to these entities please explain it as it would be a great starting point.


texts:
I've got some pretty poorly performing fisheries. Can't quite explain why (they're not overlapping and the workers live right next to them), but they only produce about 200food/year for 4 people. I think this is way under what's required so I'm planning to go destroying the underperforming fisheries.

How much food does a person need each year? This way I can know which fisheries are at least subsistence-level and which are not.

texts:
http://sc2rep.net/replays/starcraft-2-replay-z-ret-vs-t-mouzmorrow-metalopolis-09-12-2010

I just watched this replay and I don't know how the Zerg could break that Terran fortress. He tried everything - nydus worms, mutas, brood lords, ultras, banelings, and Terran just created indestructible Planetary Fortresses - Turrets - Sensor Towers wall, plus massed a large army of MMM + Vikings.

Does anybody have any ideas how to win against incredibly-fortified Terran (as Zerg), who isn't a noob? And Terran wasn't just on 1-2 expos, he had half of the map.


texts: What methods are available to disable drones besides EMP gadgets?

texts:
You can disable drones with EMP gadgets, and also with Dr. Xu's default EMP augment.

However, in one of my campaign playthroughs, I noticed that a Shock Trap that had been triggered on a door by a guard also seemed to disable a nearby drone as well.

Is it really possible to disable drones with other gadgets that have a "shock" effect? What about other gadgets and augments that KO guards, such as the HoloCircuit Overloader augment, which has a "shock" animation to it?

texts: Minecraft: Can't use mod blocks in my multiplayer server

texts:
So, basically I have created a multiplayer forge server (1.7.10) and we're trying to place blocks we've created using the Mr Crayfish Furniture Mod (for 1.7.10).

I can see the object on the crafting table once I have put the correct blocks in, but it won't let me pick the item up off the crafting table.

Any suggestions for what might be going wrong?

We originally had a couple of other mods on the server too but every time we attempted to use something, the game would crash for both of us. Super annoying so any help would be much appreciated.


texts: How to prevent Steam for closing my games without warning?

texts:
It does not happen often, but it happened just now and a few times before: some Steam self updater popup opens and whatever you click your games are closed with no warning. It only happens when the games are open in background.

Another example of games being killed is when you switch to offline mode.

Is there a way to stop steam from being able to close my steam games, ever? Presumably it kills the game process, is there some secret setting to remove this ability?

texts: Are there any benefits to getting drunk?

texts:
When wandering around the Dead Island, I discovered a bottle of alcohol. Thinking that it was a normal item that I would store away for later use, like Soap or Rags, I picked it up. However, when I next encountered a group of zombies, I discovered that I had equipped the alcohol bottle when I attempted to attack, and my character, in a ballsy move, took a swig, getting drunk instantly. I was forced to fight off the zombies in an impaired state of mind.

Still, I feel as though the game wouldn't have alcohol as an equipped item without some benefits to getting drunk...right? Or am I mistaken in thinking this, and is alcohol meant to simply make the game more challenging?


texts: As a Sniper, how can I deal with being ambushed by a Pyro?

texts:
Whenever I'm on a killstreak as a Sniper, there's always one vengeful Pyro who comes my way and burns me within a couple of seconds. Obviously, when he comes behind me and sets fire to me, there's not much I can do, but what is a good strategy when I can see a Pyro coming at me from a medium distance away?

I know that scoping in and sniping him is incredibly risky and can't guarantee death (150 damage vs the Pyro's 175 max health). Also, the SMG is very weak, and takes a while to kill, but I only have a few seconds before he comes and kills me. I'm hesitant to use my melee weapon as these are best used when behind an opponent.

The situation in which I most often encounter this is when I'm in a corner, so I have to fight (or die). Which weapon is ideal for the situation, given this information?

Most Snipers, when cornered in this situation, crouch and accept their fate. Is there an alternative?

texts: How do I defeat the noonwraith in the Devil by the Well?

texts:
I've taken a contract to get rid of a noonwraith by a well, only the wraith disappeared after a few hits.

I proceeded to examine my surroundings and found the burned corpse of some dog or wolf, as well as a diary which appears to have been written by a woman.

I jumped into the well and found the bracelet described in the diary I had found earlier, then escaped from the well.

I then went to talk to the guy who put out the contract, as this was where my quest marker was pointing me to strangely enough. There, I learned about the reason why I was supposed to get rid of the wraith.

Back at the well, I noticed I could pull out a skeleton hanging inside; the skeleton belongs to a woman and is missing an arm.

This is where I'm stuck. Every time I return to the well at noon, the wraith fights me at full health, then disappears after a few hits.

Apparently, I'm supposed to burn the skeleton with the bracelet, but I can only examine the skeleton (after which Geralt will notice the missing arm where the bracelet should be) and casting Igni on the remains does nothing.

I'm suspecting the quest is bugged. From the looks of it, I'm expected to find the bracelet, but I already have it.

Is there something I've missed? Is the quest bugged? How am I supposed to defeat the wraith, if it constantly flees then returns the next day at full health?

texts: Difference between better rating equipment?

texts:
I have two different kill warrant scanners in front of me but the more expensive one seems to be less good then the more affordable one.

Kill warrent scanner rating D 40,633 CR

Integrity B
Power draw 0.400

Kill warrent scanner rating C 121,899 CR

Intergrity A
Power draw 0.800

Both have identical range and scan time. The power needed is less for the cheaper one, at least how i interpret it. So the huge price difference must be for integrity. What exactly does integrity represent or are there other things to look out for?

How can I solve this issue?

Note: The symptoms of an nVidia driver crash include:

Your display stops responding (showing a still image of the last thing that was happening)
Your display goes black
A combination of the two.

Sometimes, the driver will recover and Windows will inform you that the driver did just recover from a crash with a message in the system tray.


texts: How is the health restored by the Dew Vial determined?

texts:
The Dew Vial is definitely a good idea, but I'm wondering how it works.

When you drink the dew (or when it is automatically drank at low health), how is the amount of health calculated? Is it amount of dewdrops in bottle times ceiling(level/5) or does it count up the worth of each dew drop according to when you pick it up? (Remember, dewdrops count for 1 HP in levels 1-5, 2 HP in levels 6-10, etc.)

Whenever I drink a full dew vial I usually find myself near max health, so I'm guessing that my first thought is correct. Any ideas?


texts: Is it possible to make a villager incapable of reusing or adding trades?

texts:
Using the Offers:{Recipes:... tag, you're able to /summon a villager with custom trades, and limits on those trades.

Problem is, once you start trading with that villager, he starts adding new trades, or reopening trades that previously ran out. Is there any way to prevent this?

That is to say, if my villager has exactly one trade with one use, for instance, can I prevent him from opening new, non-custom trades - or worse, reopening the custom one that should have had just one use?

I'd prefer to keep him around once his trades run out, and simply be unable to trade with him, but if it comes to /killing all villagers that don't have active trades, so be it.

texts: Bukkit Plugin Groups Manager is not working?

texts:
I have made no changes whatsoever to my config.yml or groups.yml. I set myself as the Owner, which I am, and I restarted the server. Then on the server, I typed "/manload". My name did not change color, and all the other players are still able to use the commands.

I know the plugin is working in some respect. Commands like "manuadd" and "manwhois" work perfectly and accurately reflect the .yml files.

I've also checked that all my directories are correct. I only have one world and I'm in "Plugins/GroupManager/worlds/world".

So the plugin is working, but it's not restricting any commands or applying any changes. Why is this? Is there someone other option I have to turn on elsewhere?

Thanks.

EDIT: This is my unchanged
groups.yml. I didn't even modify this.

This is my users.yml.
The only changes I made where in the server itself with "/manuadd" I haven't actually edited it with a text editor.

texts: How do I make water that can't flow for adventure maps?

texts: I'm trying to build a race for the wool style map, and I've seen tons of other maps in versions all the way up to 1.16 that have underwater sections without walls to hold the water in. I know they aren't using barriers, because they can still fire arrows into the water, and they aren't using a fill command, because that isn't fast enough to stop the water. As well as that, it's entirely in vanilla, since I can download the map and play it and not have any problems on a vanilla profile. So how do they do it? I do have world edit at my disposal if the solution requires it.

The Lothric Sword
The Hollowslayer Greatsword
The Exile Greatsword
And the Four-Pronged Plow

If I kill Midir I could have 16 fully upgraded weapons on this play through. How is that possible?

texts: Did the Hydra lose its head because of me?

texts:
I fought the Hydra at the encampment early in the game.  While my Pawns were attacking, I instinctively ran around behind and climbed up to get to the head.  I stopped when I noticed this bulging part at the neck. Of course I decided to hack away at it.

The next thing I knew, there was a cutscene where the head I was attacking flew off having been severed. I am wondering, is this scene scripted to show a severed head or did it get severed because I did it? (As such if should I fight it again I should do the same?)


texts: Why do demons imply I'm weak when I ask for a card?

texts:
In Shin Megami Tensei: Persona, when I get the option to obtain a spell card, some demons say I'm being cocky or something and I should get stronger first. The thing is, one demon was level 21 and Maki (who was talking to the demon) was Level 23 and had a Persona Level of 23, yet the demon still said I needed to get stronger.

What is it I'm missing that makes demons think I'm weak?

texts: What are possible methods to beat a goblin clone attack?

texts:
In Clash Royale's 2v2 games there is an attack move which I have not been able to beat during any game. Both players send two goblin barrels each(using the mirror card) to the King Tower and then both will use a clone to increase the number.

As there are 3 goblins in each barrel this means that each player sends 6 goblins over. If the 12 goblins are cloned twice this results in 36 goblins around the King Tower.

What ways are there of beating such an attack as I have lost every game when this has happened in less than 30 seconds?


texts: "Make items available" removes items from selected squad

texts:
When I equip my squad for a mission, and say use "Make weapon available", it removes the items on my selected squad, both armor and utilities.

texts: Why do Counter-Strike players switch weapons so frequently?

texts:
When I watch pros play, I see them constantly switching from main weapon to knife in almost every situation (i.e running, walking, entry, etc.).

In match-making, ESEA, etc. players will also do this. I have seen people die because they were in the middle of the 'switching' animation and thus unable to shoot. Had they not switched to their knife and back, they would most-likely have lived.

What sort of advantages do switching so frequently have?

I guess my thought process is:

While running: If one were to switch from their knife->gun->knife, and (even for a brief period), it slows their speed - ultimately getting them slower to their destination. Sure, maybe a really small difference but there are many scenarios where every tick/frame counts.
During gun-fights: Switching to from gun->knife->gun in the middle of fire-fights is really dangerous and players are defenseless for a short period of time, switching should generally be avoided as much as possible in these scenarios as well.

Some scenarios that I understand are when players have their gun out to be cautious but switch to their knife to gain speed for a short distance, then switching back - but it's a bit confusing as to why players of all skill-levels will constantly switch their weapons in almost every scenario.


texts: Is there skill-based matchmaking in Star Wars Battlefront II?

texts:
Matchmaking seems like a hot topic in the Battlefront 2 community, with the devs trying to balance full servers with players from different regions and varying skill levels.

This announcement from September 2018 is the most recent communication that I could find about skill-based matchmaking. F8RGE says "we’ve always tried to match players of similar skill level."

How is this done?

A traditional ELO system hasn't been mentioned to my knowledge. This AMA from the design director in November 2017 said that they "take into account not only your gameplay skills, but also inventory and time played, when we match players together in multiplayer." Is this still the case?

With 10 unique modes and some very sparsely populated, Battlefront 2 should show its algorithm more clearly in less common modes. For example, Hero Starfighter mode is only 0.6% of the player-base so a completely random shuffle would really stand out to these players.

texts: What is snapshotting and what skills can take advantage of it?

There is a technique called snapshotting that is insanely popular right now on certain builds.  I understand the basic idea is that you are able to capture higher/buffed stats or affects and preserve it for longer than intended periods of time.

One example is capturing the Power Shrine bonus in Exploding Palm and retaining it as you move through the level from the effects of other items.

What other skills capture their settings from bonuses and can be manipulated by snapshotting?

texts: How to validate that a mod uninstalled cleanly?

texts:
Last night, one of my friends convinced me to join his server. However, to do so without crashing, I had to install a certain mod (Avali, I think it's called), which he ensured me was nothing more than a race mod. The installation was performed by subscribing to the mod on Steam.

Well, that ended up not being true. After exploring for a while, I picked up some item that wasn't part of Vanilla Starbound and my character instantly learned a bunch of non-vanilla recipes. This was undesirable. I cleaned out my inventory and unsubscribed from the mod in steam afterwards.

My question is this: how can I be certain that my Starbound installation is clean? I want no traces of the mod, in case that would cause incompatibility issues on other multiplayer servers. Does unsubscribing from the mod remove the blueprints from my character?

texts: Changing donkey inventory item data doesn't update immediately

texts:
I am in Java 1.14.4 and I'm trying to create a custom crafting system using donkeys.  ATM I am adding the ability for the items in the crafting grid to subtract their count whenever an item has been crafted.

Here I use Slot 2b as an example. I get the item count of whatever item is in Slot 2b, store that count into a scoreboard value, subtract the count by 1, and then store the count back into the donkey's inventory.  I do this with:

execute store result score @s craftItemCount run data get entity @s Items[{Slot:2b}].Count 1

scoreboard players remove @s craftItemCount 1

execute store result entity @s Items[{Slot:2b}].Count byte 1 run scoreboard players get @s craftItemCount

However, the item count isn't automatically updated if the player has the chest donkey's GUI open.  The inventory screen has to be closed and then reupdated for this to take effect.  Meaning if the player takes the items out of the crafting grid after crafting an item, then the item count won't be subtracted at all and items could be easily duplicated. Is there a way around this?

texts: When does it make sense to buy normal crates?

texts:
According to the wiki, normal crates cost level x 400 coins. Depending on your level this could easily be in the thousands to ten thousands range.

On the other hand, you can get crates as cargo, occupying a space of 1. Compared to an equivalent piece of cargo, the opportunity cost is in the 10-100 coin range. That's a bargain compared to buying crates.

So perhaps when you have a glut of coins it makes sense, but in my experience I've always found ways to spend coins - new railroads, tracks, or special crates - so when does it ever make sense to purchase regular crates?

Also, do some enchantments stack while others don't?

Recalibrating gear can be an expensive ordeal, especially when you find an item you want to keep but just want to potentially improve one of its stats.

If I rerolled a stat on an item, will I always have that stat as an option? Or is it possible that I might roll all different stats?

e.g.,

Suppose I had an item that I rolled Scavenging 40% (of 40-60%).  If I rerolled, am I guaranteed that I will see Scavenging (at any percentage) as an option?

texts: Which is a better early game choice for a Stealth/Nonlethal character, Agility or Possession?

texts:
My first time through Dishonored, I'm playing the way I played Deus Ex - silent and compassionate.  I've got a couple runes and I've just met Granny Rags, so I'm not very far into the game at all.  I'm trying to figure out where best to allocate my points to enable a sneaky playstyle.

Things like Shadow Kill and Bloodthirsty are useless to me, because if I'm playing properly, I should never be killing anyone.  I know that in most Deus Ex-likes, there's a heavily-guarded path that requires nothing but murder to get through, and a lightly-guarded path that requires certain abilities to get through.  This is the path I plan to take through the game.

Reading the descriptions of the various powers, it seems that Agility would be helpful for the greater jump height, but Possession would be helpful to crawl through small spaces as a rat...but I don't know how many small places there will be versus how many high places.  Also, Possession II would allow me to walk enemies into lonely areas so that I could dispatch them more easily...but I don't know if I'm going to have enough runes and mana to make that strategy viable anytime soon.

In the early game, which is more useful to a stealth-based character, the extra jump height granted by Agility or the ability to travel through small spaces and relocate enemies granted by Possession?

texts:
In the DLC Reign of Giants, summer now induces overheating (the opposite of winter's freezing) and before the summer comes, there are piles of ice on the map, much like and rock boulders, that you can mine. When the summer finally comes, these piles completely melt and the only way to cool off that I found is to wear a hat made out of watermelon and twigs.

 →               →

I've seen the inverse-fireplace that I can craft using some nitre and electric doodads, but that is stationary and I want to be able to do some things during summer, but as it lasts 15 days, I'm not sure I'll be able to without proper preparations.

I thought I could just leave the top world for caves and stay there, but it's very difficult, since I didn't have any lighting gear and the light coming from the top world still induces overheating at about the same rate.

What resources do I need to have gathered to safely roam throughout the world in summer without the fear of overheating?

So far I've found that there are items that instantly reduce overheat value by a pre-set amount and can be used only a few times, and the items that constantly reduce overheating, but they spoil or break over time. Other methods require being stationary or within vicinity of some objects. I also found out that standing close to base (don't know which structures though) reduces overheating (maybe it's like trees, or maybe they absorb heat).

texts: Worker automation, can't fine tune as much as in Civ4?

texts:
In Civ4 I would improve the key points around a city to be how I wanted them and then normally stick a worker in to the mode that would improve just that city, with workers do not remove forests and workers do not touch old improvements both enabled in the global options. I'd occasionally just stick a worker on to improve city around one I've captured that I've captured and am not interested in micromanaging.
All three of these options seem to be missing from Civ 5.
I don't want to automate my workers to work globally, as I hate them touching the stuff I've actually taken the time to configure myself, they remove too many forests for my liking, and I don't like them walking about the map all over the place (for safety and because I like my workers spread across the nation, not all bunched up irrigating one city).
So, are these options available anywhere in Civ 5?
If not, can I emulate them at all?
Update
On 22nd Oct 2010 the game was patched to version 1.0.0.62, which has added a option to the ingame menus so force workers to not change manually created improvements. I believe that they will still overwrite improvements previously created by automated workers.

I have a small chicken farm and I enjoy playing with aggressive mobs. However I sometimes get a zombie child riding on one of my chickens. I end up having to kill the chicken in the process.

Is there a way to kill the zombie child without killing my chicken?


texts: How do you create a skybox in Fortnite's Creative Mode without the actual sky showing through?

texts:
I've spent over an hour trying to figure this out. I know that you need to place a barrier down and set it to the nebula or star field that you want to be displayed, make it its maximum size and have it set to hollow so players can still move around inside. I've done all that, but for some reason the color of the island's natural sky still shows through the walls of the barrier. It's fine for the blue nebula and star field, but it messes up the other colors, which are the ones I want to use. I've had to adjust the fog and lighting settings to make it work, but when I do that the lighting isn't bright enough.
I tried looking at the Space Showcase island template to figure out how they did it, but I honestly have no idea how they got the nebula to appear everywhere. It's seems like the entire sky has just been replaced. Even when I fly above the orange out of bounds wall the sky still looks like the nebula. I don't know how they managed it.
What am I missing here? How to I set up a solid skybox that won't show the actual sky at all?

  When do mobs despawn in Minecraft?

I know that mobs are despanwed in earlier versions of the game. I heard that in the new 1.8 update that mobs are no longer despawned or are saved when they are despawned? Is this true?
