texts: Xbox One Controller won't connect to Xbox One S

texts:
My 1 month old xbox one controller won't connect to my xbox one S wirelessly anymore.

Yesterday I was playing FIFA 17 locally against a friend when I had to pause. After pausing my controller disconnected and it would not connect anymore. I tried a lot of things and it looks like it's related to this specific controller and my xbox.

I tried connecting this controller on my macbook via bluetooth and it worked. I tried connecting this controller on my xbox via USB cable and it worked. The other controller is working perfectly with the xbox one, so I think I can rule out it being a console issue.

I've tried everything here:
https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/wireless-controller-disconnects

and a few things on other sites/videos. No luck!

As I said before, after all the testing I've done it seems to be a problem between my xbox one S and that controller. And that is the controller it came bundled with!

Any ideas?


texts: What's the highest Starship attributes attainable in the pathfinder update?

texts:
With the new pathfinder update, ships have been split into four classes: Shuttle, Fighter, Hauler or Explorer.  Additionally, ships have been assigned a class: C - S.  Finally, ships have been assigned 3 stats: Damage, Shield, Hyper Drive.

What is the highest set of attributes attainable for each ship class?

texts:
I noticed that when standing in some water pools in chalice dungeons, this icon appears under healh bar where boosts from gems usually are. I don't think I've seen it in story mode. Gems I have in weapons just increase physical attack.
I checked character screen, but resists and stats seem to be unaffected, if I didn't miss anything. And it's not poison.

Does someone have an idea?


texts: What gear and level based stats are normalized in Destiny Crucible Multiplayer?

texts:
I've seen mentioned in a few places that some level based stats are normalized in PvP multiplier in Destiny.  Damage for weapons being the one I've heard most consistently.  Can anyone give me a run down of what gear and player stats are balanced for Crucible play?

Do any of these abilities(including but not limited to) carry over into Crucible matches?

Damage upgrades for uncommon or rare guns
Any other weapon upgrades like hair triggers or boosted accuracy
Defense stats from all my armor
Armor based ammo and reload speed bonuses

Basically, what does high level abilities, armor, and weapons do for you in a Crucible match?


texts:
I found an item with this affix, but it greatly reduces my overall DPS (-74) while it adds 16 poison damage, ridiculously boosting my damage range (+1).

Is it worth it ?  I doubt it, but perhaps the poison damage has some properties that make it interesting (like there's no "Poison armor" stat, perhaps) ?

texts: Xbox 360 power supply has red light at start of day

texts:
The adapter has a red light when we turn the power on at the mains. When it's not connected to the Xbox, it will be orange until we plug it in.

Since this happens at the start, it's not an overheating problem.

After we reset the power at the main enough times, the power does work, and it does not fail as long as we don't turn off the console.

Has anyone ever had this problem and/or know if a new power supply will fix this?


texts:
I see minecraft seeds listed, and I started trying some of my own.

I have noticed using the same seed produces very similar styles of maps, i.e. start in a specific biome, very high mountains etc, but do they reproduce the maps exactly and you just spawn in the same place, or are they just a very specific set of rules for the area you first spawn?

If I have two maps of the same seed, and I walk 1000 blocks north, will the maps be identical/similar or totally random after the first spawn area?

How many Crown Chests can be stacked up at one time?


texts: Can a skill carry over through salvaging?

texts: I've been trying to salvage a buckler I bought with +1 finesse on it over and over, but I never get anything worth anything out of it.  Am I wasting my time?  It's a blue buckler, and the only special properties it has is the skill.  I've done this maybe fifteen times now, and I am getting different things, so it's not that the results of my salvage are set in stone. I'm just wondering if it's even possible to get an item out of it that has the +1 skill on it?

How do the buffs work when another buff or even the same one is cast after mine?

texts: How many weapon fragments do I receive from killing an alien?

texts:
I want to maximize the number of weapon fragments I salvage, but sometimes bad dudes just need to be blown up to save my team. If there are differences in the amount of fragments I can salvage from different enemies or different weapon types, I can use that information to determine which enemies to blow to smithereens, and which to kill with normal weapons fire.

For each enemy I kill with normal weapons fire, what determines the amount of weapon fragments I receive at the end of the mission?

Is it just a set number of fragments per weapon?
Does it change depending on the enemy type or their weapon type?
Do robotic aliens with built-in weapons still provide weapon fragments, or do I only get them from enemies with hand-held weapons?


texts:
As a sniper/spy main, it is important to know your surroundings whether it is to avoid backstabs or create opportunities for them.  But an opaque weapon (along with hands during reloads) in your bottom right corner isn't exactly helping.

Why not just turn off your viewmodel? It feels empty to shoot using a weapon that you're not (visibly) holding.  In some cases, it makes it harder to aim as well (e.g. projectile weapons).

I've seen a few YouTubers (e.g. MrPaladin) using transparent viewmodels. But none of them show how it's done.

Does anyone know how to set a transparent viewmodel?

texts:
In the Auction House I did not find a way to search for a rare item by name - neither on the public auction search nor on the create auction page.

texts:
According to the Team Liquid wiki:

  Marauders are weak to marines.

Let's think about this a little:

Marauders do 10 damage to marines and have almost twice the cooldown... so in 'normal condition' or under stim-pack they do similar damage to each other. Marines have 45 HP (55 with upgrade) instead of 125 and costs 50 + 12.5 supply = 62.5 instead of 100 + 25 supply + 25 gas = 150.

If we take mineral/gas cost into account, the amount of marines will be usually 2.5 bigger than marauders (X marauders against 2.5X marines), with approximately similar amount of HP to kill each group.

The difference I see is concussive shells. X marauders can constantly 'slow down' X marines, and slowed marines will do half as much damage. So 'actually', if we consider DPS we will have X marauders against 2X marines, which is significantly more(turns out this information was wrong).

Could you please clarify why Team Liquid consider marauders weak against marines?


texts: Once I've been spotted by The Alien, is my death inevitable?

texts:
I've had quite a few encounters with The Alien, now, and I've noticed that, unlike Working Joes (which you can just clobber over the head and run away from), or survivors (who will run away as soon as you point your revolver at them), as soon as he spots me, he will run after me and kill me.

Now, I'm wondering: is there any chance of getting away from the Alien once he has spotted me? I can't outrun him, as he's far faster, I can't hide in vents or cupboards, as he'll just drag me out, and I can't just crouch and hope for the best, since he's not stupid. Are there any tactics that would allow me to survive an encounter with the Alien, given that he's just spotted me?

Note: I've also noticed that the only thing that seems to (albeit mildly) scare off the Alien is fire (I'm referring to the gas explosion when he runs away), but, obviously, I don't have a source of fire.


texts: Bioshock Infinite Lutece Statue Transformation

texts: In the beginning parts of the game, before the action starts, there's a statue of Lutece which transforms.  It completes the transformation faster than I can get to it, so I can't see what it transforms from.  So my question is, what was the statue originally before the shift?

texts: How do I classify my Shadowstep Rogue lvl 40's damage?

texts:
I have a level 40 human Shadowstep rogue. For a long time I've been wondering if he does good damage. In the quests that I do (appropriate to my level) I have no problem at all defeating my enemies. Dueling against 5 level higher people isn't a problem either, because Shadowstep and ambush take them out quickly. I have 1 sword (27.5dps) and a mace (29dps) equipped. One of them does additional damage because it's in the main hand, which brings me to about 100dps with both weapons.

In dungeons I can take out various 4-5k elites by myself, and my shadowstep/ambush (or garotte) combination usually does 700-900+ damage, followed by some 200-400 criticals because of the -70% armor. Dmg/hit is around 180-200. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing a lot less damage than other players, like warrior-tanks or shapeshifted druids.

Am I doing a small, medium or high amount of damage for my level and class?


texts: What is the purpose of the rat shooting level in Theme Hospital?

texts:
In Theme Hospital's single player, if you shoot enough rats with the cursor during a single level, your 'player piece' on the level select screen will be moved to a rat-shooting minigame with a little fanfare instead of sliding to the next level on the board.

You're placed in an empty hospital with no rooms, no patients and no staff and there are rats all over the place for you to shoot. There doesn't seem to be any objectives on this level, and it just ends arbitrarily.

How does this level work? What's the objective? And what do you get for winning?

(i.e. do you get extra research? bonus staff? bonus money?)

texts: Since the Shadowlands Prepatch, I'm getting the dialog in the image below every time I log in, and sometimes after logging out of a character to switch to another.  The way I want my addons to be set up is that they are enabled, but the "Load out of date addons" checkbox is disabled, so as they are updated they'll already be enabled.  Unfortunately, the first option actively disables the addons (so even after they update I have to enable them manually), and the second option enables all of them and also enables "load out of date addons," and there does not seem to be a way to cancel it without taking action.  Is there an option somewhere to disable this dialog?  Even when I hit load anyway it seems to come up every time I log in.

I've got a slim silver PS2 and wanted to buy some PS1 games. I've noticed that the PS2 games that come on CDs instead of DVDs (blue disc vs. normal silver) spin loudly — it's like I left a hairdryer in my game cabinet! Just like how CDs spin up noisily in a PC or laptop DVD drive. I always found it an obnoxious design flaw.

Well, my question is: Do you know if PS1 games are like this in the PS2? If so, I'll probably spend the extra few bucks to get a PS1 to catch up on my vintage games.

Earlier this week, I received an email  advertising the release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on the Nintendo Switch. I usually ignore these emails, but the subject threw me off.

It said:

I am unfamiliar with the term G.O.A.T, and it seems to be an acronym of some sort. There was nothing within the email that indicated what this meant, and in my search, the only things that came up were goats in Witcher 3 and the Goat Simulator game.

So what does G.O.A.T mean in this context?

texts: How to create a floating layer of signs that lets eggs through in a chicken coop?

texts:
I had previously been using signs as a layer to hold water in a chicken coop (the chickens float in the water and drop eggs through), and underneath the layer of signs I had another layer of water which sweeps all the eggs out to one end. However when I stacked my signs to build a coop today, they broke when I removed the layer underneath.

I think I can still walk under the chickens to collect the eggs by stacking 2 signs on top of each other in each square of the coop, but water can no longer flow underneath to sweep them out of the coop.

How can I make the signs float? Or is there something else I can use instead as a layer that holds water but lets eggs through?


texts: How long is the temporary shielding in League of Legends?

texts: I was recently promoted to Diamond V in League of Legends. I have heard that you are shielded from being demoted the first 10 games. However I was wondering how long the shield lasts, not in terms of games but time-wise. What I mean is whether there is a temporary time-frame where the shield expires regardless of how many games are played (ex: I play only 5 games in a 28 day period yet the shielding expires due to time) or whether the shield acts indefinitely until you play the 10 games (ex: I play once every 3 weeks and the shielding applies until I hit the 10th game even though it has been months after the promotion). Thank you very much.


texts: Are there weapons which regenerate ammo?

texts: In Borderlands 1 I had a great pistol which only had a 2-shot clip but reloaded almost instantly and it also regenerated ammunition over time, fast enough that it basically had infinite ammo. I haven't found a gun in BL2 that has this ability, are there any? I'm playing as Commando and I've noticed Gunzerker class mods that seem to grant this ability, but I was hoping there are weapons that do it too. The need to stop questing and go searching through containers for ammo or find an ammo vending machine is a little annoying.

texts:
I have an oviraptor at my base generating increased egg production from my other dinos. I swear poop production has skyrocketed as well though: my compost bins are always maxed out, and sitting amidst the ~50 nearby dinos can sometimes sound like a symphony of poo (constant fart sounds). This is especially noticable with my Phliomas, which are now pooping in burst fire mode, defecating 2 or 3 times before the first poo ball decomposes, creating an unsightly pile/stack behind them.

Until we get dung beetles on console, a lot of the dino waste is going to go to waste. I'm also curious if this is increasing the dino food consumption rate. Has anyone else experienced a fecal spike after taming an oviraptor?

texts: Can I permanently give another player a weapon in Grand Theft Auto 5?

texts:
We've got a crew with some higher level players and quite a few beginners. When we're doing co-op missions we want the beginners to have access to higher level weaponry as often they only have pistols or micro SMGs.

If I wanted to give another crew member my modified SMG how does that work? I know I can drop the weapon/ ammo but when they pick it up how long do they have it for?

Do they get the weapon permanently? Or does it disappear when they die/ at the end of the mission? And if it does disappear do I get it back?

I'm happy to give out weaponry to less fortunate crew members but I don't want to give away $100k in weapons if it's just going to mysteriously disappear.

I was doing the last quest for the blades, and I had to go talk to Paratharax at the throat of the world. I decided not to kill Paratharax until I finished the all the Greybeards quests.

I decided to take a shortcut down the side of the mountain, riding Shadowmere, and we fell. Shadowmere died. I fast travelled to Whiterun, waited 10 days, and went back to where he died, but he still wasn't there.

I went back to doing quests. I know its been at least 100 days since he died, and I saw on here that you have to wait 15-20 days, so I'm wondering if it has been too long.

If he did, where would he respawn? On the top of the Throat of the world, down the side of the mountain where he died, or at the position he came to rest?


texts: Question about global skills + undo in shop

texts:
Is using the 'undo' in shop an advantage for champions with global skills?

3 scenarios I can think of is :

Say, Ashe has ult and gold around 1600. She can buy the rod for + AP which is beneficial for her ult then exchange for BFSword/Zeal and Boots.

Another is Kart, where he can cast his ult with the rod, then undo after, and go with chalice of harmony + boots.

Last is Soraka, which badly needs her ult, goes for CDR boots, casts ult, undo then go for mobility.

This leads to the strategy of focusing one quickly while "ignoring" the other.

If it is possible what happens?


texts: How to make a new Nether Portal without letting it link to a another Nether Portal?

texts:
I have read up on this issue as much as I possibly could. I even tried it on the PS4 version of Minecraft and have had no issues with it. I am now trying it on the iOS Minecraft version (which is Bedrock I believe).

So this is the issue:

My current portal (overworld portal) is at these coordinates. X:830, Y: 63,Z:645.
I know the rule is roughly that your X and Z coordinates must be +/- 128 to make it so your portals don't link and you finally get a new portal location. I want a new portal so I can have a better chance at finding a nether fortress.

Therefore I made my new portal at X: 447, Y: 68, Z: 900. This obviously is more than the 128 blocks rule, but it still didn't work. I went through the portal, which sent me to the same nether portal that was created from the original overworld portal I made. Am I misunderstanding something? I did the same thing on the PS4 version and it worked normally.

I went through the Message Settings, but didn't find any option for this. Which of the many options controls these messages? Or is there some other way to turn them off? (Shift + Discard is not good enough for me.)

I'm focusing on getting 3 stars in a clan war. I'm TH 7. Using an all dragon attack usually works well. I usually drop lightening spells on the air defense. I was thinking of luring out the clan castle (CC) troops to be close to the air defense so when I drop the spell on it, they get zapped too.

My question is what's the best way to do this? In the past I've had trouble with walls not letting me get close enough to lour (though this usually doesn't happen). I've tried luring out CC troops using hog riders and it almost always works bad. I'm considering wizards or giants. The thing about giants is they're more likely to go deep into the base to get at the defense, thus luring out the cc troops. My camp has a capacity of 200 so that means 1 less dragon will give me 4 giants or 5 wizards. Any suggestion? I also thought maybe a mix of "bate" would work well as chances are 1 would get close enough to CC to lure.

texts: Efficiency of Single vs Double Sunflowers at the start of the level

texts:
In Plants vs. Zombies 2, the single sunflower costs 50 sun, while the double sunflower costs 125. With 1x initial sun upgrade which gives 75 sun when a level begins (obtainable in one of the side branches), you can wait for 2 normal sun drops and you can build a single Double Sunflower.  Or you can plant 2 single sunflowers in swift succession, which costs 25 sun less

If there are no space constraints, and if you have the potato mine (which let you drag the out beginning of the level while waiting for more suns), which will provide more sun over time (after factoring the costs of the sunflowers)?

texts: Minimum fiend tale completion count in Chapter 1 to get significant awards

texts:
There are various rewards such as SP pods etc. as I complete Fiend Tales.

What is the minimum no. of stories to complete before obtaining the more useful prizes in the game? Consider any scenarios where I may need to have multiple SP pods or other rewards obtainable from the story completions.

I don't care about accessories or unlocking new fiends, unless that is a prerequisite for unlocking all of the Fayth Fragments. I would prefer to finish the fiends with fayth fragments asap (in ch.1) if possible, so far I have only done the Flame Dragon.

Also, should I take a break in completing Fiend Tales during game progress? (if say, the time to use SP pods is in future and I shouldn't be using up all available pod slots to get them).

texts:
My cabin just doesn't feel the same without my little space hamster friend to keep me company. I've heard that if you bought the space hamster in Mass Effect 2 and import your save into Mass Effect 3, the little guy can be found running around the Normandy somewhere. It sounds too good to be true.

How do I get my lost space hamster back?

Sub-questions:

If I didn't import my save from Mass Effect 2, is there still a way to get the space hamster in Mass Effect 3?
Does he need to be taken care of like my fish?
Does having the space hamster change anything in this game (i.e. give rewards, change the story slightly, etc.)?

texts: How does Power Distributor size affect Boost capability?

texts:
Is there a simple method to determine the minimum size of Power Distributor that's required for a certain ship to boost?

I know you can fit just about any Power Distributor to any ship (up to the maximum size permitted for that ship). But if the capacitors in your PD are too small, then you won't be able to boost.

The problem is, I haven't seen any easy way to determine a minimum size without taking it out for a test flight. This makes the process of selecting a small distributor (e.g.: for a Planetary Explorer build) tedious and costly.

I know I could just check shipbuilding websites like Coriolis, but I'd really prefer to be able to do this independently. Are the necessary metrics readily available in-game? If so, what do I need to look for?

Note: I play on XB1, so any mods or other under-the-hood inspection methods are not valid solutions here.


texts: Why can't I get the "M-COM Defender" ribbon in Battlefield 3?

texts:
I have a little problem, as you can see in this image:

Yes, yes, I play Battlefield 3 too much. I'm not referring to that problem. See the missing ribbons, above? That's the problem!

I understand why I don't have the melee ribbon yet, but as much as I've played Battlefield 3 I can't understand why I don't have the M-COM defender ribbon yet!

The description says

  M-COM DEFENDER RIBBON

  In a round, defend 4 M-COM stations.

Surely, surely I have defended 4 M-COM stations in 80+ hours of play. I have two M-COM attacker ribbons. But apparently I've done nothing to defend M-COMs?

How the heck do you get this badge?

texts:
Dark Souls is, by far, the greatest game I have ever played and I will never forget the freezing cold winter when I stayed at home most days and played it about 5 years ago. I had it on xbox 360.

I'll admit I am not the world's greatest video gamer, and I summoned help for almost all bosses, and it has become the one thing that has put me off picking it up again and playing it. I just can't imagine ever seeing myself being a good enough player to beat Ornstein & Smough, and the day I beat the Capra Demon in Undead Burg was practically a highlight of my gaming career.

So if I were start playing again, which platform would be the best to start playing on in terms of people still playing online? And are there any ways to make it easier to access other players in the game world?

texts: How do I complete the Festival of the Lost 2019 secret Triumph?

texts:
In-gamewise, there's no indicator of what the Secret Triumph is. There is a Secret Triumph, although both the objective and reward are hidden. However, using a tool like Braytech or Destiny Tracker shows what appears to be the actual triumph:

Now according to this, the secret triumph requires me to see a spider in my sights. I don't believe this pertains to the NPC Spider of the Tangled Shore considering a few things -- one, your weapons are disabled when you are in line of sight of Spider, so you can't scope in on him or even aim your gun at him.  I remember back in Destiny 1 where as an easter egg, aiming down sights had a chance for a spider silhouette to crawl across your screen momentarily.   I've played around with scoping in for large amounts of time and have not seen anything.

In any case, how do I complete this secret triumph for the Festival of the Lost event of 2019?

But how do the mechanics for Covert Ops actually work?  What factors determine the chance of success and how much do they affect it?  Actual numbers would be preferred.  I'd love to know what the actual math involved is.

texts: Can you make a repeating command in minecraft with /data command, that only affects any entity once?

texts:
I am trying to make a command block command for server I am playing at, that would make any creeper near it not explode. As they still somehow spawn where they shouldnt and keep blowing up behind people when they use public chests.
With the terrible and messy info on wiki I was able to come up with this:
/data modify entity @e[type=minecraft:creeper,distance=0..50,limit=1] ExplosionRadius set value 0
But it just keeps editing single nearest creeper, so I tried to make it ignore ones that already have it set to 0, but it seems to still only affect one creper repeatedly if try to do this this way:
/data modify entity @e[type=minecraft:creeper,nbt=!{ExplosionRadius:0},distance=0..50,limit=1] ExplosionRadius set value 0
So then I thought that I could just add a tag to it named like "noexplode" or something. but it seems to only allow you to edit one value with single command...
/data modify entity @e[type=minecraft:creeper,tag=!{noexplode},distance=0..50,limit=1]ExplosionRadius merge value 0 //and here I dont know how to make it also add a tag to it.

The most popular build in diablo 3 for wizard is this:

It uses forked lightning and frozen orb

But why?

Does frozen orb synergy with cold blooded? Does it chill or froze enemies?

Why forked lightning? Does it generate more arcane power?

The 44% damage when crit seems to be very low. Blizzard for example, deal 1k% damage.

What I am really interested is something along why is this better than usual.

For example meteor seems to hit harder than frozen orb. Also living lightning also generates arcane.

texts:
I've been playing Flick Kick Football Legends on my android phone lately. For those unfamilar with this game you have to flick a football past defenders to another player on your team. The game constructs mostly static scenes with your player usually behind a defender or two. Sometimes the players on both teams move from side to side in a fixed pattern. Your players can get various skills including harder kicks and better curves.

Anyway, upon occasion the game constructs an arrangement of players that I believe it impossible to successfully pass the ball to your player without it being intercepted by the CPU player.

Is this the case, or is every arrangement possible if only I flick and swerve the football in exactly the right way?

And yet I'm seeing there are people out there logging 10 miles or more.  My cars aren't fully upgraded; but could that really be the 3 to 4 mile difference?  Up until now I haven't had to fully upgrade my vehicles to stay competitive so early in a series (I'm only 34% through this one).

Anything else?

Some say that a Dragon's Breath apprentices are good against it. If so, how? Does that do extra damage against ZOMGs? What?

Also, the Sun God may be good against ZOMGs, but why?

I notice that Rays of Doom are good against MOABs, but not that good against unclustered ZOMGs.

texts:
Netflix caused the PS3 (slim, latest firmware) to hang during playback. It wouldn't turn off so I had to cut power. As expected when it started again I had the file system corrupted message but this time, PS3 could not repair and notified me formatting is my only option. Turned to safe mode, tried to restore the file system from there, and it is just stuck on "Preparing" for ever. I waited over night (twice) and no progress. No HDD access light flashing, nothing.

I've tested the drive for bad sectors and found none. The drive is mechanically fine.
Our backups were, by twist of fate, deleted a short while ago and not recreated.

texts: Finished Far Cry Primal, but the play through is only at 54.02%

texts:
I just finished Far Cry Primal.
I played about 30 hours, and did all the (people) missions.
I also build and crafted everything.
I conquered all the towers and area's, and tamed all the beasts.

The only thing I didn't do is collected all the 'hands' and jewelry.
And also not all of the red side missions.

During the game I was wondering about how big the game was, but since it now ended with 54% playthrough I'm a bit confused.  Since I think I played it through for about 80-90%

I can't basically believe that those red missions and those collections of hands and jewelry (which I collected about 20%) would be more than half of the game.

Any idea?

texts: Removing Tag/Scoreboard Value from Offline Players

texts: For my Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Realm, I am creating a system where players can purchase access to a certain area for 24 hours. So far, I have created the purchasing system and 24-hour timer. When a player purchases access, they are given a tag so that they and only they can enter the area during the time period. After the time is up, the tag must be removed so someone else can purchase access. The problem arises if they are offline when the time is up. I currently have no way to remove the tag from them if they are offline, and waiting until they come online again means the whole system is stuck until they come back (if they do) meaning no one else can purchase access until they come back. I want a solution that will allow a reset of the system when the time ends, allowing someone else to rent soon after. I am open to using scoreboard objectives instead of tags if that seems like a better option.

texts: I am trying to "debug" my large monster spawning room. I am aware that all surrounding caves must be lit, but my trap still seems to wind down after a few minutes.

texts:
If I'm playing Brave New World multiplayer as part of a team it appears that, unlike science, our culture and tourism are not combined.  That means the best way for the team to win a culture victory is to give all the great artists to one player, let that player build all tourism benefiting wonders and basically concentrate entirely on that player's civ, which seems like it might not be much fun for the other player(s).  Have I understood this correctly?

Edit: I've just read the question that people have marked this as a duplicate of, sounds like it's even worse - everything I've said is true, plus you need to influence your partner too, yet you can't have open borders with them!  Sounds like this isn't a good way to go in multiplayer.


texts: What's so special about Mick's Special Stash?

texts:
Twas morning in Freeside and at Ralph and Mick's
Not a creature was stirring, except for two chicks
on a mission from Elvis, to investigate
a bodyguard who seemed suspiciously great.

When what to our wondering eyes should appear,
but a couple of thugs, wearing blastmaster gear!
Though we killed them, the battle was needlessly tough,
And we realized we needed lethaler stuff.

So we entered the store and a Speech check we passed
and Mick's special weaponry was ours at last.
But then when I asked for the regular kind
the stuff was the same! No stairway! Denied!

"What gives!?" I exclaimed as I looked through the FAQ
"Does Mick's special stuff replace the regular rack?
Or is there some difference that I didn't note?
I'll ask on Arqade! They can help me, I hope!"

I tried logging off and back on and it had no difference. I also can't type because chat will open and close in less then 0.0001 seconds. I can't disconnect or even reach the main menu as it does the same thing with chat. Someone please help and keep in mind I cannot type for them to respawn me or tp.

texts: Minecraft server local difficulty doesn’t change

texts:
I’ve been on a server for a while and there have been questions from everyone (including the owner) about why the farms we make are really slow at generating mobs.

I just had a look out of interest on the debug menu and the local difficulty is 1.03 everywhere. Even in the Nether and The End. That’s after 150+ days.

Surely this should fluctuate over time and depending on the area you are in?

Is there a setting or something that would force this value to remain constant everywhere in the Minecraft world?

If so, what is it and can it be removed so that the difficulty can fluctuate as intended again?

We’re running a vanilla Minecraft server on 1.13.1

Thanks

For the Gen 5 challenge "Critically Conditioned: Charge Rifle", I need to get 30 critical hits with the Charge Rifle.  As any good Titan isn't standing in one place very long (and even if they are they are rotating and slightly gyrating), lining up hits is tedious at best.

I had the thought to rodeo and use the Charge Rifle, but while it seems to give a 'red' hit indication around my reticle, my challenge progress is not ticking up any.  I've heard rodeoing is a way to do the challenge, but I'm not sure what I could be doing wrong.  Does the Titan's shields need to be down before a rodeo shot counts as a crit?  Is it bugged? Was it patched?

Is it a certain distance you need to be in the air? or roll and jump or something?


texts: Where is stored the total number of crafted electronic circuits for the "Mass Production 3" achievement?

texts:
I have a steam installation of Factorio 0.16 and an experimental version 0.17 in a folder somewhere else with a bunch of new saves to test the new features.

I'd like to do the "Mass production 3" achievement on steam and if I get this right, this achievement is save-independant. Once the 0.17 gets stable and downloaded via steam, I'll merge the 0.17 new worlds I tried with my current steam installation.

Question : when the saves will be incorporated in my steam installation, will the total electronic circuits add up to the score?

And more general, where is the green circuit counter stored?

Quick edit: I tested the update of the green circuit counter during a session, the steam achievement counter is updated after the game exists. The ingame counter is not precise enough (rounds to first decimal in engineer notation)

So I've figured out parts of this.
I know I can use commandblocks to achieve it.
I know I can use them to add a player to a team either when they step on a pressure plate, or just have the commandblock repeat the command (though this floods chat.)
From what I gather, in the past this involved using the scoreboard. Past solutions no longer work as the syntax has changed.
I need a joining player to be forced into a team. Any method possible in vanilla Minecraft is acceptable.
I'd like to avoid using touchplate or switches as those can be broken, even unintentionally.

Then I noticed no one was online, which is wrong, there's always someone online. I checked the Network settings and LAN was selected, so I tried selecting another option to get me online, but I can't select anything except LAN and Offline.

And when I try to look at DLC it says I need a connection to Steam to do that, except I am connected to Steam.

This actually isn't the first time I've had this problem, I had it on another computer a while ago and I know I fixed it but I don't remember how. I already tried verifying game integrity.

texts: Good Pokemon for the Zero Isle South dungeon?

texts:
The Zero Isle dungeons in the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series (Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky specifically) are much more similar to a typical roguelike, adding restrictions that make the dungeon difficult to complete (and forcing you to rely on luck a little more). In particular, Zero Isle South makes you enter with no money, no items, and (for the dungeon) resets your Pokemon's level to 1.

However, there are definitely some Pokemon that are better than others for attempting to complete the dungeon. For example, Mew is a great Pokemon because it can learn all TMs you pick up. What other Pokemon are good for completing Zero Isle South?


texts: How to get my previously owned 3DS games WITHOUT the original system

texts:
So basically, I think I've really dun goofed here.

After much debate, I finally decided to exchange my old 3DS with the 3DS XL and in my excitement, I didn't actually read up on the fact that if you want to keep your old games from console to console, you need to do a system transfer. To be fair, the store I traded my game in didn't mention this, but I'll try not to place the blame on anyone but myself. Not only have I lost my old games and save, but my account activity with all my ambassador program stuff as well as any eShop games. I'm not asking if there's a way to do it with my old console or a SD card but if there's a way to link to my old account, some settings option I'm not noticing or if I've truly messed up here, I may not have been terribly clear here so I'm more than willing to clarify any point. I've contacted Nintendo support but no response yet.

UPDATE #1: Just contacted Nintendo via telephone and they said there is NO way to do it other than system transfer, so rush to the store it is, not holding much hope though. I even mentioned the rumoured Club Nintendo way of getting it back but they seemed bemused by the idea and said it's more of a rewards scheme or something along those lines than an actual record of games owned.

UPDATE #2: Just went to the store and they said they wiped it, by the sounds of things, pretty much as soon as they got it. Sigh. Think I'll let off some steam by writing a very disappointed email to Nintendo about it. How British of me. Either way, hopefully this has enlightened people at least to make sure they do the system transfer before trading in.

UPDATE #3: Sorry to drag this out even more, but it looks as though my response to my email to Nintendo support actually had a very interesting paragraph:

  Please note that formatting the console does not delete your eShop account and download content unless you have created a NNID, providing the retailer has not manually deleted the eShop account your purchases may still be on the console.

So even though the games themselves are gone, the games are still registered to the console in the same vein as Steam. After reading this I headed to the store, asked if I could see my console's eShop Account Activity and (after a 10 minute system update) my past purchases were all there (including my credit card information which is just a bit frightening) so I tried performing a system transfer old for my 3DS XL to rebuff me saying my battery was too low. Seriously. I'm heading there first thing tomorrow and I'll let you all know if this really does resolve everything.

UPDATE #4: Went back in the store today after waiting ~20 minutes for the system transfer, all my previous account activity is now on my new 3DS, happy days! So I guess as long as the store has your old console in, you can prove you traded it in (should the store need to prove it anyways) and they haven't gone as far as to manually delete eShop contents, you can still recover your downloadable games.

To do this, I will need to check that the buying player has enough kill points to purchase an item, remove the points, and give the item or items.

How do I go about making sure a player has at least a certain amount of points, and only then removing an exact number from their scoreboard score?


texts:
The Succubi in Acts III and IV have energy orbs they toss your way that give you the debuff "Blood Star."

Blood Star states:

  A curse that reduces Monk and Barbarian Armor by 50%, and causes Wizard, Witch Doctor, and Demon Hunter skills to do casting cost as damage back to the caster.

As a wizard, I've noticed that I take roughly 1k damage when this is active and I'm channeling Disintegrate. I'm pretty sure that Disintegrate doesn't cost 1k Arcane Power, so - how does Blood Star work? Does the damage change by difficulty? Does my armor reduce the damage? Which resist affects Blood Star damage?


texts: How can I keep ghosts out of my machine?

texts:
I've been building a number of redstone circuits lately, and to keep them protected I've been enclosing each entire circuit in obsidian. However, recently I noticed that a zombie managed to spawn in a dark 1x1x2 void within the redstone circuit. I fixed this by placing ceiling slabs to make these voids 1x1x1.5, too small for spawning.

Unfortunately, I came across a part of my design where I have a redstone torch in the top half of a 1x1x2 void, and a redstone wire on the bottom half. I can't fill the void in any way, and I'm afraid monsters can still spawn there. The only solution I can think of is to find a way to add another block of space to the 1x1x2 void where I can place a coal torch, keeping the light level in the void high enough to avoid spawning.

Are there any other tricks or design components that help keep redstone circuitry from becoming a breeding ground for baddies?


texts: If I reset all my skills, do I lose the bonuses from critical success in missions?

texts:
Basically... I never really understood skills/I thought if I played long enough, I could max them all out.

I am annoyed at how I spent quite a few of my skill points and I have also had critical success in quite a few duty officer missions that have awarded skill points, some of which have are in skills I already maxed out - so are pretty useless.

I was just wondering, if I get a respec/reskill/reset token and use it, do all of the skills that I have won stats in also reset to 0, or do I keep critical success skill buffs?

(Side question - if I loose them (or even if I don't), is there a complete list of every possible win from missions so that I know not to spend skill points in them, as give enough time, I should fill them from missions?)


texts: How do you quickly clear away trees without destroying my creations

texts:
I'm trying to create a theme park, but I forgot to make my world flat before creating it. I've already built a lot so I don't want to destroy my builds. I've tried the /replaceitem command, but it didn't work.

Is there an easy way to get rid of all the trees on my map without destroying my creations?

Today I just opened my console and used the disconnect command then left the game because my Team had picked 4 carries and it would surely be a loss.

If I do this frequently, will I be penalized?

texts: Can you select which scorestreak reward to activate?

texts:
When I get a number of scorestreaks at once, can you select which one to activate? Is it always the most recent streak rewarded?

My scorestreak combo is care package, counter-UAV, and the Guardian. They all unlock at or around the same score and the Guardian gets activated first, where I would ideally like to save that one for later.


texts: How can I see what tier a unit is when producing it?

texts:
Once I've created a new recruit for my army I can see what tier he is. But some upgrades in the cities are for specific tiered units (for example a building that gives all tier 1 and 2 units an extra experience rank).

So how can I see what tier a unit I never produced is? And how can I see what tier a unit that would be unlocked by building something would be?


texts: Can you actually date Sans in Undertale?

texts:
So I found this video

             supposedly you go on a date with Sans but this is different than the Papyrus date and besides that, I never saw this in the game maybe, I have not gotten to this part. But I did go to Grillbys with Sans and I thought they were just hanging out as friends. So is the Sans date real or a hoax?
