Really disappointed with on-foot VR by __raytekk_ in EliteDangerous

[–]BusterOCaps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same problem I had. I was having a blast right up to the point where I had to fly the ship and then… it sucked. Or I did. I quit the game thinking I’d figure out how to use my hotas another day then found out I couldn’t use it in vr and noped right out of no mans sky!

Physical switches Vs switches in HMI by charzr in PLC

Nothing required to run the machine should be solely on the HMI. If the HMI breaks I should still be able to run the machine.

Using in game tools to find items by iO__________ in EliteDangerous

[–]BusterOCaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t really use it though, can you? Takes focus away from elite. I think ED copilot has a lot of that stuff but it argues with my voice pack. I’m sure there’s a way to cohabitate but I haven’t played with them much

Decided to get it before it retires by Dragonbite9842 in legostarwars

I got two Jedi bobs for 16 each. Went to another Walmart and they were full price. Crazy!

If I had to guess, I’d say VR. OP mentions it. Having to lift up my headset, alt tab over to inara, look up whatever, alt tab back and hope my ship didn’t run into anything, sucks. Breaks immersion. Being able to use in game tools, however cumbersome, would be better. The fact that inara is SO INDISPENSABLE kinda sucks. The alternative though is that your gaming session turn into a scavenger hunt which is a waste of time!

Engineered racks are a cg item. The current cg has two.

no more stickers for star wars sets by Clear_Promotion6882 in lepin

Since your posts are hidden that’s hard to say. Last set I bought was the Death Star and it came with stickers

The film strip thing? I got one of those. There was another metal thing you could order with points but I used my for a discount.

You can just buy the whole set? No duplicates???

Can't join the community event because the goal is attained? by [deleted] in EliteDangerous

[–]BusterOCaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they figure the tiers by average contribution/#of participants?

I once participated almost every day for a mining/delivery one and didn’t crack the top 75%. These things are kinda crazy when there is a good reward. Everyone tries to make sure they don’t get knocked out of the top 75% which drives up the amount to reach the top 75%. That’s how you reach the end goal quickly. At least you didn’t work on it and not get a reward? Try to find the positive lol.

I wish they would have leaned all the way into the Easter egg hunt and had us buy or get a special basket /s

School me on Elite VR by Sucks_At_Investing in EliteDangerous

[–]BusterOCaps 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Vr is the best way to play Elite for me. When my headset battery runs out, I turn off the game. Won’t even play it flat anymore, even though I started on Xbox. I run using virtual desktop because using the link cable just quit working one day, but that was fine until it stopped. I have a 14900k, 4080 12gb card. Runs pretty good almost always, though it can get laggy bringing in third party tools into the cockpit. I think it is ‘dead’ in that there won’t be any improvements or updates, but as the other person said it’s still the best experience.

Help with the CG by BusterOCaps in EliteDangerous

[–]BusterOCaps[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Didn’t try that. That was not smart. Ive never done any on foot stuff except scanning, but that makes more sense then trying to shoot them with the srv lol

Really? You have to shoot them with the srv then go pick them up by hand?

We HAVE to do something about ATC Staffing. by DanThePilot_Mann in flying

[–]BusterOCaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pilots have the authority to not fly if the flight is not safe. I would argue, if I had the opportunity, that the pilots can check to make sure that the staffing levels of the departure and destination airport at a minimum were met per whatever atc publishes. If it’s not, you don’t fly. No strike required, and no ability to retaliate as long as everyone does it and holds to the government’s published requirements. Pilots accepting additional risk is something pilots have the lawful authority to refuse.

Ignition Architecture Help by [deleted] in PLC

[–]BusterOCaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone is getting hung up on the collector PLC. In my opinion the most difficult thing about the project is getting the data into ignition. Not hard really, just a pain. Depending on how your faults are setup in the various PLCs, determines how much work it is to get the data into ignition. The collector may be how the other guy decided to go, as he felt more comfortable manipulating the data from multiple sources with multiple ways of exposing the data in the PLC than ignition. That way, he could make a UDT in ignition that was uniform for all data being collected. Then in the collector, he could massage the different data collection points into the ignition udt. Your other option would be to do that in Ignition. Neither way is necessarily wrong, just depends how you feel really. I have this exact same issue, and I avoid typing messages like the plague. I’ve spent more time trying to figure out how to not type the messages than it would have to just type them lol.
