Obviously, I could level up faster as a trainer by playing all day long; but that is hardly feasible. There are various activities that give XP, some of them are controllable (like winning in gym battles) and others are somewhat random (getting a new pokemon).

Other than normal gameplay like capturing all the Pokemon I see, what actions lead to more efficient xp gain? Esp. when it comes to using limited resources - e.g. I will run low on potions if I battle often, should I focus on friendly challenges or gym takeovers to efficiently use my potions?


texts: How are abilities unlocked in the Witcher 2?

texts:
On the character attributes page is a section for abilities (different from talents). I've earned the abilites Axii sign hex, cover, conjuror and assassin. Each of those gives a certain bonus, which is nice, but I have no idea how I unlocked most of those abilities.

I got the Axii sign hex when I first used Axii in a conversation, but I've no clue how I unlocked the rest of them. Are they given to you on certain events, or do you have to do something special to get them?


texts:
On the original Super Smash Bros for N64, I read in many, many places that to unlock Captain Falcon you need to beat the single player game in under 20 minutes on any difficulty. Well, according to my watch, I beat it in 16 minutes, including the credits, without losing a single life. I expected to play against Captain Falcon, but he did not show up, and is not in my character roster.

Are there more requirements to unlock him? Do I need to try again? Is my cartridge glitched?

texts: How can I tell if I have the Team Fortress 2 update that supports Snow Leopard 10.6.4?

texts:
I recently saw that TF2 has updated its code so it doesn't run slow for the Mac OS X 10.6.4 update (which I was holding off on doing since I wanted to play TF2).

I just saw that I need to restart Steam because of an update which included this:

  OSX: Fix several memory leaks
  OSX: Fix copy/paste resulting in extra random string data

Sorry for the confusion on the real question. The question I am asking is: Do I have to do/download anything to see if the so called TF2 update for 10.6.4 is on my machine? They have told us before that we shouldn't upgrade to 10.6.4 yet since it was buggy with TF2 (graphics problem) so now that they have advertised it and I have upgraded to 10.6.4, is the update already on my machine or not? I checked the Steam update log as mentioned in one of the answers, but I haven't seen any trace of their 10.6.4 fix.

Another edit:
Apple finally released an update for portal and tf2 specifically. Here's a screenie:

What the title says. To be specific, I am playing as England and claimed the throne of Castile (going for a British-run Western European Block and Castille is much easier a dog to fight than France initially). I have a royal marriage with the Castillians and I claimed their throne to get a free Cassus Belli. I currently have sieged down nearly all of their provinces and when I open the peace deal interface, the option to force a personal union is not showing up.

I am playing In Nomine on steam, latest patches and version and such. I spent half of my army and my nation is severely exhausted from the War (Castile blitzed Portugal and I had to save their butts because they were "my" foothold on the continent if I lost the war and it would have been disastrous if Castile took half of their provinces). It would be a major waste if I could not get the desired PU on them and only some provinces.

I read on the EU3 Wiki that I might have to wait for a succession crisis to demand a PU, but there does not appear to be an interface to see if they are having a succession crisis. I am sure this was improved in Heir to the Throne, but alas I am broke right now so it does not appear that I will be able to get it at least until school start. Thanks in advance.

If it is just my inability to find the interface for the succession crisis feature, I would prefer a visual or something showing me where to look for it. I also checked my message settings five times over and can not find the message that the EU3 wiki spoke of.


texts: Is it possible to use a Wii Extension controller on a PC without a Wiimote?

texts:
Just today I bought this Wii extension controller with the intent of using it on my PC, since the box says that a USB port is used for the wireless emitter.

Unfortunately that wasn't the case; the wireless emitter only has one port that apparently only connects to a Wiimote (which I don't own). Is there a way of connecting this controller to a computer? Maybe a adapter between the extension port and a USB one?

I've tried to see if it uses Bluetooth, I don't think it does.

My question is opposite from everyone else's, as I am going from the Xbox one down to the 360. I have been playing black ops 3 on the Xbox one,  and wanted to play it on the 360 also.

But,  on the 360 nothing is saved and I'm level one.

So how do I transfer my progress over from the Xbox one to the 360? Please help,  this is very annoying.

texts:
When battling another player in Age of Legends, your Attack value (or defense value when being attacked) is calculated off of the size of your guild, plus some factor applied to your Attack/Defense values accumulated from your weapons.

What is the exact formula that is used to calculate your Attack or Defense.

Please note, this game is made by Uken Games which has quite a few games that are exactly the same but with different themes (i.e. Dark Galaxies, Heroes and Villians, etc.)  If you know the formulas for any of the other Uken Games, please post that as a potential answer because it is most likely correct.


texts:
I was trying to calculate the relative differences of a few pieces of gear - namely ones that add +damage% to one damage type, and I couldn't figure out how all these damage types are applied.

For the sake of argument, take a barbarian with the following:

9,000% increased damage from strength.
40% increase to physical damage
25% increase to primary skill damage (Simplicity's Strength gem)
+15% damage to some primary attack (Bash, let's say)

and afterwards, what happens if he has 400% critical strike damage and he gets a critical strike?  Are all of these sources multiplicative?

In career mode in FIFA 12, what factors determine a club's transfer strategy (e.g. whether they are a "buying" or "selling" club)?

I'm playing a career as a virtual pro but not playing as a manager. I'm playing for Liverpool, but in the course of 3 transfer windows they've sold off 6 or so star players (Suarez, Carroll, Reina, Johnson, Agger, Downing for those who are interested) without buying a single player. It's so completely unrealistic that it's really ruined the experience for me. I'm wondering if there are any factors that I have control over that I could change to make sure it doesn't happen again.

I realise I could just become the manager and then have (almost) complete control over transfers, but I would rather avoid all the minutia and just focus on playing.

How do I fix this? I used to be able to switch then suddenly it's acting up.

Ok, so Black Mesa and Aperture Science were competing to discover and develop portal technology along with getting government funds. This "competition rush" caused the Black Mesa Incident and the Borealis accident. So, my question is: How could Black Mesa and Aperture Science be in this competition if Aperture Science had clearly already invented portal technology? In Portal 2, when you are testing with Cave Johnson, there is a poster on the wall which shows the previous version of the portal gun.

Clearly, Aperture Science had functioning portal technology back in the 60's. Why would Black Mesa still be trying to create portals in the 21st century if the technology had already existed?

I am interested in purchasing Chrono Trigger for iOS, but before investing in the game was trying to ascertain if save games were placed in the cloud1.

Even though the game is listed as Game Center compatible the feature bullet doesn't elaborate in what way.

Are Chrono Trigger save games pushed to the cloud so that games in progress can be resumed from any iOS device?

1. I too hate the cloud marketing buzz word, but couldn't think of a more appriopriate term. :(

I have been trying to get a feel for what high or low Drift might mean for controls. I'm still unsure.

Does high Drift mean the car sticks to the road less, allowing easier drifting?
Does high Drift mean the car, on the contrary, sticks to the road?
Assuming high Drift means no adherence... does low Drift mean high adherence? Experience seems to prove otherwise: most basic cars have all low values and yet start drifting if you take too-tight turns.
Could it be strictly related to dirt roads? I've noticed cars with high Drift are sometimes also "rally" type cars.

texts: My friendly mobs are disappearing, what can cause this?

texts:
Recently I build a kind of a zoo in my single player MineCraft world. My goal was to display most (if not all) mobs in the game. Each mob is named using a name tag to prevent despawning and each mob is placed in their own cage (a well lit, 5x5x5 blocks room).
After I filled the first few cages with friendly mobs and came back (relogged) some of the cages were empty. Specifically my cow, sheep and pig were missing.
Having still plenty of name tags, I rounded up a new cow, sheep and pig, named them and put them in their cage.
Some while later (a couple of days, so I logged on again) my cow cage was empty yet again.

I am very sure I've named the mobs that disappeared correctly (I don't know if you even can do it other then correctly). The cages have plenty of room and are well lit and since I've not found the missing mobs roaming around, I highly doubt they have escaped. Since hostile mobs don't attack friendly mobs, I also rule that out as a cause.

Does anyone have an idea on why these mobs disappear? And, if you do, how I can prevent it or fix it?

Note: The world was created in 1.7.1 and is now running in 1.8.10.

I tried setting spawnpoints of the hunters to the hunted but this only works if the hunter dies: next time they respawn, the compass points to it but only where the hunted stood when the hunter died.

When I play on my Hard difficulty survival world, part of the ceiling of my blacksmith's keeps missing blocks.

When I wander around Skyrim I'll often run into high elves with prisoners, rich lords on horses and sometimes named NPCs that I can interact with.

If the dragon born let them be, would they still wander from town to town or would they simply despawn at some point in time?

Edit
I've encountered a hunter and his horse on the road and held my blade. I followed him for some time and it appears that his entire existence consists of patrolling up and down the same 100 meters of trail. I was disappointed to say the least. Sfter some time has passed I shall return to the place whence I saw him last and see if he continues his drudgery.

Just started playing Diablo 3 and can't seem to google this question effectively.

It looks to me like you automatically gain skills as you level, and at any time you can change the choices you made, as you are just setting which one you are currently using, NOT which ones you want to learn.  I have not leveled enough to be sure that this is how it works.

So is this correct?  Or are there choices you make when you level (skills/runes/passives) that you can't go back and reconfigure later?

texts: Accused of breaking a promise I didn't make

texts:
Playing as England and was asked by Dido to stop claiming land near her. I forget the exact wording of the response, but the intent was "I'll do what I want you whining cow, jog on."

Then about twenty turns later, she accuses me of breaking my promise.

Aside from the fact that I made no such promise, I didn't buy any tiles anywhere near her.

Is this a glitch? Or does a demand by a foreign leader to not do something count as you promising to not do it, no matter how you respond?

//Update -
This morning I received a notification that I had kept my expansion promise to Dido. Which puzzled me slightly more and leans me in the majority opinion that it was a glitch.

For clarification: I did not purchase or otherwise claim any tiles near the only one of her cities anywhere near me (which she built far from her own empire and close to my capital).


texts: What's the most efficient conversion of Components to Credits?

texts:
I have a big pile of components that I've acquired from disassembling various items that would otherwise sell to vendors for very small sums of money. At the point in the game that I'm at, in the short term, I need credits more than I need components; I've just RNG'd up a shop with some of the best gear in the game, but it's going to cost me 50,000 creds I don't have, whereas I'm pretty much set for upgrades until I can work on skills quite a bit more.

What items can I build that will yield the highest sell-to-vendor price per component to construct them?

(If it matters, I am playing with TSLCRM, but I don't think it makes any notable changes to the crafting system or item pricing.)


texts: What Rune and Meteorite combinations offer me the most effective blades?

texts:
So, I've just reached Chapter 4 in The Witcher (playing the Enhanced Edition if that matters), with a melee-focused build for Geralt, and I'm getting to the point where my options for weapons really open up.

Specifically, I now have enough Red and Blue Meteorite pieces to put together just about any combination of those two, along with one Yellow Meteorite, and my current steel sword is Harvall, and I have an Illegal Sword in the bank. The Blacksmiths son in Murky Waters is offering Gwalhir for sale as well. (I can easily afford it if I go that route.)

For Silver, I used my first three runes to make a Rune Sword, with 2 Earth and one Sun rune. I now have several of all three runes.

What Rune and Meteorite combinations are going to offer me the most effective blades for upcoming encounters, or is there some other sword I should be chasing while ignoring Runes/Meteorites? (Alternately, is it possible to use the Meteorite pieces to enhance an existing sword like Harvall? Because that would be incredible.)

texts: Is there a limit to how much quarried stone you can mine?

texts:
I just installed the DLC, bought Lakeview Manor, and now I have to furnish the inside. It seems that I can only find a few quarry stones in the chest and next to a hill, but on the hill was a stone quarry vein.

So I mined it. It took forever and ever and I tried to wait before it depletes. It didn't. Here are my theories:

The quarry gives you a huge amount of quarried stone before depletion.
The quarry give you unlimited amounts of quarried stone, so you won't have to find another vein.

So which theory is true? Is there a limit to how much quarried stone can be mined? Or does it go forever until you press a button?

texts: Is it possible to get a new Minecraft *game* id without getting a new *user id* / buying a new copy of Minecraft?

texts:
There is some sort of a global "player id" that identifies you to Minecraft servers. This id has a 1:1 relationship with a game state on a server. Is it possible to get a new game on a server without getting a new id (without buying a new copy of Minecraft)? This would make it possible to start from fresh on a server one doesn't control.

I think that the whole idea of there being a single game state associated with a single user id is, on its face, absurd. When you play locally, you can have as many games as you wish. The same should be possible on a server. I have no problem with having a unique id so that someone can ban me etc. I just wish there was a way to have more than one game state (player state) on a server, so that I could explore different strategies etc.

My question is not about impersonating another player, nor avoiding bans, etc. I simply wonder why online play limits the functionality present in the basic local Minecraft - namely that you can have more than one game state.

texts: Shooting specific arrows from specific bows

texts:
I am creating a vanilla minecraft PvP map in which the players use "guns", renamed bows with various enchantments. For example, there is a bow named "pistol", and one named "rifle", and respective ammunition.

"Rifle" shoots "Rifle Ammo"

My current challenge is making a bow type shoot only the named ammo type. People will have more exclusive pistol ammo, but less rifle ammo, forcing them to conserve arrows.

How can you use commands to make a named bow shoot only a specific named ammo? I need for any given bow to only shoot one type, and not expend any other.

texts:
I currently have the Empire of Hispania with all of its de jure kingdoms, as well as most of France's kingdoms and a few in Britain. I currently hold most of the kingdom titles personally and wanted to do some major restructuring, mainly in regards to instituting Imperial rule.

With the Imperial organization, will my Duke vassals still desire my appropriate Kingdom title, even though Imperial de-emphasizes inheritance anyway?

What if I make so my Dukes are of the burgher class, rather than the noble class, making so it is impossible for them to hold kingdoms?

With Imperial organization, does the limit of Duchy/County titles that can be held by burghers still apply? It doesn't say it doesn't, but it doesn't seem like it should given the lack of inheritance.

If that limit does still apply, forcing me to have many of my vassal dukes be nobility, and they still desire my Kingdoms even with Imperial organization, should I destroy my Kingdom titles? Is there any negative effect besides less monthly prestige?

Is there any penalty to making so that each of my Dukes have completely random county holdings to severely curb their power? I won't hold their de jure counties myself, only my other dukes will. I'm not sure if there is a benefit to this either as when you raise a Duke's levy, it appears in one place and I'm not sure if it works the same when they raise their levies against you.

Lastly, with Imperial organization, does the granting a Duchy opinion bonus still apply even though there is no longer a penalty for revocation?

texts: How do I save my Dead Island game on PS3?

texts:
Apparently the developers forgot to include a save command in the ps3 version, and as a result the game saves only when it feels like it.

This results in lots of potential for lost data (indeed the Internet is rife with stories of people losing hours of play and multiple levels).

Is there any method known behind what triggers the game to save?  The red biohazard symbol seems linked, but I've had partial data loss following apparent saves (going by the red biohazard symbol) with some quest pickups (and exp and drops) saved, but others lost.

As an additional question, Can you save your in game location anywhere besides the quest hubs (I found myself at the life guard station after my last session, even though it had been over an hour of play time since I had been there last)?

Bonus points if someone can answer and   provide information about whether a patch to fix this is planned.

texts:
[Public Server - v1.10 - Vanilla]

I have a chain of commands that I'm running, which includes a command block that increments an armor stand's scoreboard value (used as a counter) when a player is with a specific set of scoreboard values is within a 5 block radius. If I stand at the command block while the player stands there, and change it between Chain/Always Active to Impulse/Always Active (back and forth), the command will eventually execute. Otherwise, the error I get is this:

Failed to execute 'scoreboard players add @e[type=ArmorStand,name=Counter] Count 1' as playername

The command I'm trying to run is:

execute @a[score_param1_min=1,score_param1=1,score_param2_min=1,score_param2=1,score_counter_min=0,score_counter=0] ~ ~ ~ scoreboard players add @e[type=ArmorStand,name=ASCounter] counter 1

Changing the command block from Conditional to Unconditional has not made a difference, and I can confirm that the player is standing in the right spot at the right time.

I also tried changing the command block to a Repeating/Always Active, and no difference either.

I'm at a loss, so any help would be really appreciated. I don't want to remove the /execute as because that could cause some issues for other players down the road if the conditions were just right, and the command needs to be run reliably, or also major potential issues down the road.

texts: Run Borderlands 2 at 2880x1800 on Retina MacBook Pro

texts:
I'm trying to get Borderlands 2 on Mac, the Steam version, to run at full resolution (2880x1800) on my rMBP.

In-game, the max resolution for some reason is set at 1440x900, half of the full resolution.

I've tried these launch options in Steam:

-w 2880 -h 1800
-width 2880 -h 1800

but neither set the game resolution.

I manually went into the .ini file and set the resolution, but when the game starts up it sets it right back to 1440x900!

What else can I try?

ETA:

I can use SwitchResX to run the entire OS in non-retina mode, so its resolution would be 2880x1800, but without retina, and I can then set the game resolution that high and it looks BEAUTIFUL, but I'd rather not use this app. Is there any way to bypass the game's limit?

I've been having a grand old time running through dungeons, burning zombies into their constituent atoms, and basically looting everything that's not nailed down.  All was fine and dandy until Khelgar started complaining that he didn't like having to carry around all my extra junk.  I told him to pipe down and stop complaining, but he still moves slower than an arthritic camel on a good day.

I tried storing some stuff in the workbenches in the Sunken Flagon, but when I went back, it was all gone!  And there's no chest or anything in my room, so I'm unsure where I can put all my extra stuff that is not useful enough to use or carry with me, but not useless enough for me to offload to a vendor.

Bonus points if there's a way to retrieve the stuff I stuck into the workbenches.  There were some good receipe books in there!


texts: Is stealth the best way to approach a timed objective?

texts:
I'm wondering if I'm misunderstanding the usefulness of stealth tactics in XCOM 2, specifically in missions where you start concealed, have to cross a map in a limited number of turns, and contend with multiple groups of hostiles hiding and patrolling everywhere (which FTR pretty much sums up every mission I've done so far).

If I have limited turns to get to the objective, that seems to imply at least one of my squaddies should make haste towards it, and I shouldnt get tied up in combat (Maybe I'm wrong about this, and there are different strategies for VIPs vs. bombs, crates, etc.).

But, inevitably I trigger alarms whenever I interact with the objective, and even if I get the objective successfully, I'm usually tasked with eliminating all hostiles, which are inconveniently all around the objective, and raining vengeance upon whatever poor soul I tasked with objective duty.

I've been scraping my way out of these missions, usually with at least one Gravely Wounded soldier, so I know they can be done. What I'm  asking is what strategy should I be taking here, in general?

Should I be sneaky and avoid early conflict, preparing for an onslaught at the objective? (When I do this, I usually get overwhelmed by those onslaughts if I'm not perfectly positioned)

Or should I be taking out enemies as I encounter them, while still progressing towards the objective, so the mayhem is spread out a little more and the encounters are with smaller groups of enemies? (When I do this, I usually end up getting stalled by early combat and missing the objective, or sacrificing a squad member to get it done just in time).

In Angry Birds Epic, I noticed that enemies sometimes have the same damage, but in a different attack pattern. For example, the thug has one attack of 16 damage, and the bird catcher has two attacks of 8 damage.

What is the practical difference between these two?

When you apply the electric-barrier skill (all attacks deal a counter-attack), I thought maybe 2x8 attacks will result in two counter-attacks, but it still deals only 1x counter-attack damage.

  If you've completed the flight school already and still aren't maxed, the second way to improve your flying attribute is by completing successful takeoffs and landings at each of the three airports.

I have no exp points in flying stat at all:

When I try to set D to ability 4, it will stay as take on crow, and F on ability 5 will stay as retrieve, but when I put D and F on inventory 3 and 4, it'll take D and F off of everything else, and only be used for the item slots. I plan on just not using slots 3 and 4 with active items on heroes with 4th and 5th abilities, such as doom, and I know it's possible because I've seen Sing Sing do it on Rubick, and he had D set on a Inventory slot for an item, as well as his stolen skill.

texts: How do you kill ground troops with a starfighter?

texts:
I enjoy flying starfighters like the X-Wing and TIE fighters in ship-to-ship combat, but have a hard time hitting anything on the ground without crashing. This is because the ship only shoots in the direction it's flying, and down is a bad direction to be flying.

How is this done? Is there some special trick or strategy that makes it easier?

In Zelda, you can fill up your bottles with Milk, Potion, or Fairies, and in Darksiders, it appears you're able to do the same with your Empty Vessels (though less Milk and more Souls, probably). However, I've yet to actually find out how to do so. The Empty Vessels can't be used directly (like one might equip a bottle in a Zelda game) so I'm at a bit of a loss.

How can you fill an Empty Vessel with Revive, Life Essence, Wrath, or Chaos (etc)?

Creatures that are appear on hidden parts of the map also show up on the mini-map:

texts:
First of all, before jumping here to pop a question, I've been all over the Net trying to find a solution to the problem.

Apparently, loads of people were having a problem with sound in this game, most if not all managed to solve it by either setting DeviceName=Generic Hardware or leaving DeviceName value blank so the game would detect the sound device during each start up. Also, by setting max channels to 64 or higher depending on sound card capabilities.

Now, I've tried using an array of different settings and no matter what, I always have a popping sound repeating every few seconds.

I'm running the game on Windows 7 and have X-Fi XtremeMusic sound card capable of processing up to 128 sound sources when in Game Mode. Here's the tricky part. When using Entertainment Mode, the popping sound is gone, but the maximum amount of processed channels can't be set higher than 64, no matter what game settings I use. Which is natural as Entertainment Mode only works with up to 64.

I can definitely play in Entertainment Mode, but the sound is not as good in this mode as in Game Mode (juding by a vast experience I had with loads of other games which like Game Mode fine, just as they should).

I find it weird that the games designed for X-Fi cards (says so on the back of the box) can't really support one...

My question is, is it possible to run Mass Effect using X-Fi Game Mode and having 128 sound channels and not having the horrible popping sound?


texts: How to throw poke balls such that they do not miss?

texts:
Sometimes when I throw a poke ball, it misses the target pokemon entirely (without pulling the pokemon inside, even momentarily).

I've noticed that if my throw ends up going to the left or the right of the target pokemon, it generally misses.  However, even throws that appear to bounce off the forehead of my target pokemon sometimes miss.

The official Niantic help page on Finding and Catching wild Pokémon doesn't currently address this.

How do I am my throw such that the pokemon gets pulled inside, and the throw doesn't miss?

texts: Tips for beginners trying to improve their game in War Thunder?

texts:
I just started playing War Thunder a couple of days ago.
I'm still level 5 and thus only using some basic planes and tanks. Right now I'm not very effective at destroying enemy aircraft, so I tend to focus on the mission objectives. I would like to have more options in my play style, if possible.

Are there any tips which would be helpful to a new player trying to improve their game?

texts: Is it possible for 4 dungeons to join together in minecraft

texts: In Minecraft, I had found  a few regular dungeons, on a Youtube video video, I saw a double dungeon and on the Wiki I found out that triple dungeons can spawn.

Also, if it is possible for quadruple dungeons to spawn, what is the limit of dungeons able to spawn together.

texts: Branching dialogue in minecraft using a player scoreboard, a trigger, tellraw, and a command block chain?

texts:
I am trying to set up a branching dialogue system using command blocks, a scoreboard, a trigger objective, and a command block chain.

The first five command blocks work correctly. I can see the fourth and fifth command blocks updating my score. However, the sixth, seventh, and eighth command blocks don't work. I'm not sure why. I'm using the same commands that I used for the fifth command block. For some reason, they are not activating.

First Command Block (set as impulse, unconditional, needs redstone, and triggered by a pressure plate).

texts: Are Federal "rank-up" missions always combat based?

texts:
I'm interested in the Federal ships, and I need to up my rank with the Feds to get one. I did some Fed missions and traded a lot, now I have this Federal Naval mission that says my actions have been noticed, and if I go kill a spy somewhere, I'll be upgraded to Ensign.

I'm a miner in a Type-7. I have no shields, and 4 mining lasers. I have a buddy who plays as my bodyguard, but he isn't always around, and obviously can't complete missions for me, so I'm going to have a tough time with this first-tier naval mission, and I expect to fail the later ones without a complete change up in my ship and play style.

Are rank-up missions always combat based, or can they be mining / trading missions too? I like to live dangerously as much as the next guy (again, no shields), but if every rank-up for Feds is achieved via a combat mission,  I'll forget about the Fed ships for now and focus on a Type-9 or an Orca instead.


texts: Chain Command Blocks Not Equipping Armor?

texts:
The following command is used to force the player to equip armor:

/replaceitem entity @p[type=Player] slot.armor.head chainmail_helmet 1 0 {display:{Name:"Archer Helmet",Lore:["You feel somewhat faster, and resistant to ranged damage"]},AttributeModifiers:[{AttributeName:"generic.movementSpeed",Name:"generic.movementSpeed",Amount:0.10,Operation:0,UUIDMost:24682,UUIDLeast:195471},,{AttributeName:"generic.armor",Name:"armor",Slot:"head",Amount:2.0,Operation:0,UUIDMost:100,UUIDLeast:100}],ench:[{id:0,lvl:2},{id:4,lvl:2}],Unbreakable:1}

And when run in a command block, it works 100% fine, but when it is part of the chain, it gives the output saying:

[14:09:34] Replaced slot slot.armor.head with 1 * [Archer Helmet]

However no changes were made to the player's GUI. Any ideas why this would happen? I'm playing Minecraft 1.10

texts: Optimal Mission Order in regard to Unit Upgrades

texts:
The Starcraft 2 Campaign Mission Order question has already asked

  Will picking missions randomly from
  the planets available exclude me from
  doing other missions or will it all
  just sort itself out?

I am curious what is the most efficient mission order in regard to unit upgrades because whatever unit upgrades at the time of the first play through in a campaign save so what you are stuck with when you replay that mission. Unit upgrades should benefit achievement hunting. Both research and unit purchase upgrades should be considered.

The Evacuation mission, for example, you should upgraded your bunkers before taking on this mission using tier I zerg research to assist in the Sacrifice Nothing achievement.

texts: "Office Workers Demand More Parking" in SimTower

texts:
Here's another old game I've never quite mastered.  In Sim Tower, I can always make it almost to the end, but I trip at the finish line.

Once I reach 5 star status, I keep increasing my population and buy the cathedral on the roof like you're supposed to.  I get as much parking as I'm allowed (it eventually tells you cannot build any more of the item).  And, even if I delete all of my offices (or at least most of them), I get the message that the office workers demand more parking.  And, as long as I have that complaint, it won't upgrade me to "Tower" status.

Am I missing a key strategy?  Or is this just a bug?  If it's a bug, is there any patch for it?

texts:
My mouse keeps freezing in place at random times when I'm playing a game. It's happened in TF2 4 times already, and it's happened once when I was playing Civ 5.

It has yet to happen outside of a game.

If anyone has experienced this or has a solution, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.


texts: How to move the paddle in pong? Bit.Trip Beat's Growth Boss keeps defeating me

texts:
All my attempts against this four pronged evil menace from space have been met with failure on the score of 8-15. The above is, in a way, one of my best shots against the boss; after my absent-minded first moments, I try and pick up the slack, but eventually I always react that tenth of second too late and plonk, I'm closer to failure.

I'm afraid there's not much advice you can give me except "stop sucking," but...

How can I move the paddle in pong... better?

Addendum. While reading the TvTropes page about Bit.Trip*, I read this:

  Ascended Glitch: In BEAT, hitting the pong ball with the corners of Player 2's paddle will cause the ball to gain way too much momentum and go haywire, making the final boss trivial to beat. When the game was patched, Gaijin specifically didn't fix the bug because it was a "cool advanced technique".

I haven't been able to reproduce this. Is this behaviour present in the PC version?

* Clicking through may result in an exponential explosion of tabs and should be done with extreme caution.


texts: Is there a reason to still build ships smaller than your largest available size?

I recently unlocked cruisers. Looking just at the numbers, they seem to simply have a better value for their price than destroyers or corvettes.

Corvettes still have a purpose as cheap and expendable scouts. But I am just talking about their combat value here. Assuming that all my spaceports are upgraded so they can build cruisers, is there still a reason to build any new destroyers or corvettes? Is there maybe some non-obvious benefit to having mixed fleets?

texts: When hiding cargo from scanners, how to choose a specific ship to hide in?

texts:
In Endless Sky, I own a fleet of several ships but only 2 of them have scanner jammers. In order to avoid detection while running pirate missions, how to choose one of those ships to hold the cargo/passenger?
The only solution I can think of is parking the other ones before accepting the mission, however this is not ideal (assuming it works at all) since some missions may involve automatic dialogue appearing as soon as you get to the spaceport. One would have to park them in a previous planet but this is cumbersome and dangerous to split the fleet.
The game auto distributes trade cargo between the fleet, but that's not usually an issue since one just fills all available capacity. If this distribution would always go in order, from ship to ship, then the solution would be to sort the fleet with the jammers 1st. The disadvantage here is if your flag ship isn't one of them. How can I confirm this distribution order though?
btw, if the item was always an outfit, that would be easy, but that's seldom the case.
Thanks.

texts: How should one interpret the religion lens?

texts:
See below image. This is the lens that is shown with missionaries, etc.

One would think that the numbered overlay shows the number of citizens in the city adhering to each religion. Aachen thus has 0 Confucian citizens (green) and 6 Absurdism citizens (blue - my religion). However, this doesn't line up with the City Details dialogue where it shows 0 for Confucianism but doesn't list Absurdism at all.

That's only the case for Aachen, which also happens to be the only city with a Holy Site. Aachen is also the site where I used a Great Prophet to found the religion. For the other two cities, the Religion view lines up with City Details. So perhaps this part is just a bug in City Details?

One thing that is clear: The circles are just a graphical representation of the proportion of citizens for each faith. At first, I thought it might be a progress indicator, but it isn't.

One related issue: Sometimes when I spread faith with a missionary, the citizen count doesn't move at all. For example, I spread on Berlin but it stayed at 3. Is this a rounding error or does spreading faith not always work?


texts: Bulletproof windows in GTA V (Singleplayer)

texts:
I am currently only aware of 3 vehicles with bulletproof windows:

The police transporter van - the one that lays stingers on the road (however the side windows are not bulletproof and only have bulletproof coating)
The police (SWAT?) van - that appears at higher wanted levels and also has bulletproof windows (all of them are bulletproof)
A third vehicle which was gifted to "returning" people, who I am not.

The issue with the above police vehicles is they cannot be stored in 6-car garages, and they can only just fit into a characters safehouse garage. In addition, they are slow, clumsy and don't even have bulletproof tires.

So, in singleplayer, are there any vehicles (that I can buy, steal or upgrade) that come with bulletproof windows?

texts:
While trying to figure out the math for Hungering Arrow, we discovered that we don't know how the Devouring Arrow rune works:

Hungering Arrow: Fire a magically imbued arrow that seeks out targets for 115% weapon damage and has a 35% chance to pierce through targets.
Devouring Arrow: Each consecutive pierce increases the damage of the arrow by 70%.

Does this mean that each hit gets another 70% weapon damage added (so a second hit would be 115 + 70 = 185%)? Or that the total damage is increased by 70% (so a second hit would be 115% * 1.70 = 195%)? Or something else? This doesn't make a big difference on the first hit but the cumulative effect could be large.

texts:
The definition of fragging from the dictionary is:

  deliberately kill (an unpopular senior officer), typically with a hand
  grenade.

In today's shooter games we see the term frags being thrown out a lot. Either in reference to the actual grenade itself, but mostly referring to getting kills, regardless of weapons, and several subterms have come from it, such as topfragging, and bottomfragging, terms referring to how many kills you have on a scoreboard.

So when did it turn from "killing a senior officer mostly with a grenade" to "kills in a First Person Shooter"? What are the origins of the terms gameplay-wise?

texts: Why do some ships have better stats shown in orange?

texts:
In the Wipeout HD gameplay mode, each team has one ship available in multiple unlockable liveries.  However, for many, in fact most of the teams, there is a second ship available above the first one, also with unlockable liveries.

The upper ships have the same base starts as the lower ones with what appear to be stat bonuses displayed in orange at the ends of applicable graphs.

What are the meaning of these orange bars?  Simple stat buffs would make these ships objectively better than the lower ones, so I'm guessing it's not that simple.


texts: Is there a maximum amount of artifact power a weapon can hold?

texts:
I've been questing, killing rares, and collecting treasure for just a day now on about 3 characters, collecting many items to upgrade my Artifact Power.
Above the experience bar is another bar showing the current and total Artifact Power I have collected for my weapon:
At level 100 it was a maximum of 300.
After leveling to 101 and upgrading my weapon once it has a new maximum of 325.

However I realized, that is not the actual maximum.
When approaching the 300 mark, I was at 265 and clicked a +100 Artifact Power item, which put me at 300. I was a bit dissapointed that I just wasted 65 power, but after upgrading my weapon seconds later the bar reset to 65 / 325 power.

This means that my 65 power was not wasted, and the number shown on the bar is not the maximum.

That all being said, is there a hard maximum amount of power your artifact can store without going to your Order Hall and upgrading it?

texts: The cob cannon is a powerful plant that can launch powerful corn bombs onto anywhere on the screen (one corn bomb is equivalent to one cherry bomb) which is very powerful. However, the cob cannon can easily be destroyed, due to its large hitbox and costs a lot of sun (700) with the kernel pults. While the cherry bomb is only 150 sun and is invincible (due to being a instant kill, it can only be stolen by bungees). Cob cannon's only advantages were not being able to be stolen (Yes, the cob cannons size makes it un-stealable) and having a shorter time to recharge a corn bomb (around 31 seconds while the cherry bomb takes 50 seconds) at the cost of costing 550 more sun. So, is the cob cannon worth it?

texts:
On May 3rd, Steam changed its gift system.

Prior to this change, I used to purchase several gifts during sales and put them in my inventory.  I would send them to friends later, on birthdays or other holidays.  Now, there seem to be two options:

Send the gift to a friend instantly.  I don't want to do this, because I'm purchasing the gift intending to send it at a later time.
Schedule the gift for delivery.  I'd rather not do this either, since I don't know when I want to deliver the gift.  I want to be able to click a button at some point in the future to deliver it, not have it scheduled.

I was thinking that I could achieve what I want by scheduling the gift for delivery at some point in the very, very far future, like in a year or two.  Then when I want the gift delivered, just go and reschedule it to the current date.

On the Steam forums there has been quite a bit of discussion about this.  In this thread, one user reports having a "Manage gift" button that allows them to reschedule a gift.  However, another user reports NOT having such a button.

Could someone who has a gift scheduled for delivery answer this once and for all?  Is there a "Manage gift" button?  When you click it, does Steam allow you to reschedule the gift?


texts: Does Bloodborne exist in the same universe as the Dark Souls games?

texts: I have heard of small "easter eggs", such as the priest in Bloodborne saying "Umbasa".  There's not much online - anyone know for sure?


texts: When can I get Covetous Shen's conversations for the Everybody Loves Shen achievement?

texts:
The achievement says to "Listen to all of the Jeweler's conversations."

Because Shen's conversations seem to change quite frequently, it seems like it would be easy to miss a lot of these, so I'd like to know when Shen's conversations first become available and if and when they become unavailable.

Of special note now is the new Act IV conversation "Victory", introduced in the 1.0.5 patch.

texts: What (if anything) influences ammo drops?

texts:
Sometimes when playing I will go ages without finding a green ammo drop and then sometimes I get far more than I need dropping at the same time. Are ammo drops completely random or are they influenced by actions you take?

For example does what weapon type you use influence what ammo drops? Do precision kills make a difference? Does doing lots of damage in a short time make a difference? These are all things that I have sometimes anecdotally thought make a difference but its always hard to tell the difference between that and RNG...

And as a last addendum do you have to have even done damage for something for it to drop ammo for you (eg if your fireteam kill it without you)...
