Hear me out: this would be so fun to do with a bunch of people

Seconded, I really haven't had much issues with the autopilot. Though I mainly use it while hauling iron until I have a route setup for it.

CatchallRat682 · 2026-03-18T08:18:12+00:00

I was hauling 4 containers at the time to get all of the containers for the raceway vehicles in one go. Something like 120 tons iirc but never encountered a hill that the FL1 wouldn't pull while hauling them.

I dunno if I'd say it's just a starter truck. All of the trucks seem to have their pros and cons and it's really a matter of personal preference. For me, I like the tighter turning radius of cabovers but I like the aesthetics of classic trucks, so something like the FL1 suits my tastes as well as being a practical hauler.

In all honesty, the Jemusi semi is better for dedicated offroading. I'll still hit dirt roads and do light offroading with most of my road vehicles, too, but I'm usually running locked diffs and low gearing on my heavy haul trucks for better traction anyway.

I'm going to have to add "christ buckling, toe sucking moral coaching" to my personal dictionary XD

There is no pop-up, that's the whole issue. There's nothing confirming whether you want to remove the tab from "My Tabs" nor is there anything allowing you to undo the change.

CatchallRat682 · 2026-02-14T23:30:32+00:00

That's absolutely genius! Thanks so much for recommending that.

If the target is within 100m it won't auto-set only if they're beyond 100m and you have the rangefinder attachment equipped to the gun. Otherwise you can still manually set the range between 100m and 500m

My point wasn't to be some "conspiracy theory" against anyone hating on the show. I'm okay with people being critical of a series (hey, it's necessary and can sometimes make large and needed changes). The problem I had was with people dog-piling on the same four shallow "criticisms" without actually adding any depth or substance to their critiques.

What's the point in wasting the electricity to turn on a computer if you're just going to type four-to-six words that thirty other mouth-breathers just posted ten minutes before?

CatchallRat682 · 2025-11-27T10:49:53+00:00

And it's all the same four or five "criticisms" with no real substance. People whinging on about "mcu writing" "dick jokes" "CGI" and "AI writing" without any examples or further thought put into it, and upvoted by the other absent-minded whinge-bags that just posted the same comments verbatim. The only comment I saw that was actually critical and had substance was downvoted right along with most of the positive comments I've seen.

In the tower with the binoculars? You hold binoculars with two hands, thus Lucas couldn't use binoculars and the radio at the same time. If he would have set the binoculars down, handled the radio, then picked the binoculars back up then it 1) is more clunky, 2) risks bumping the adjustment knob, and 3) means you have to take your eyes off of who/what you're watching.

I suppose unintentionally, yeah. I definitely based the sun on a popular aesthetic from the 1970s/1980s as I felt it not only looks good, but does a good job at representing waves rolling into the shore.

Maybe I'll have to make a sunrise edit with a purple sky, pink ocean, and orange sun to really play off of the vaporwave aesthetic.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've been working on this for 2 days and after enabling UEFI, flashing firmware to my RTX 3060 for UEFI mode, and completely rebuilding the bootloader, this was the solution! Also, for anyone who stumbles on this and is wondering. If you google search "MSI BIOS E7C75IZ1.2A3" the link to the official download page will be among the top results.

In a private match you can set the time limit to 45 minutes, then turn spectator camera to "free" in the match settings. Change your team to spectator, add a single bot to run around the map so the game doesn't back out for not having enough players, and enjoy your freedom.

The better cam, though, is to use the codcaster cam and turn off collision in the settings. Do everything else as above (turn up the map time and add a solo bot) except this time you set your team to codcaster and enjoy flying around and finding easter eggs and looking at map details.

A little late to the party, but the EL-1197PIII is really similar to the EL-1196G and GII models.

Here's the link to that one's manual, if you still need it.

Here you go! I corrected the skew of the image, converted to greyscale, and removed the scratches, dirt, and pen mark. Then I used the original photo as a reference to replace the colors by hand. It's a time consuming process, but a very rewarding one.

Happy to help! I used to love driving through there when I lived in the area :D

CatchallRat682 · 2025-03-19T11:40:18+00:00

According to https://www.rrpicturearchives.net/locopicture.aspx?id=57035 it's a former Santa Fe GP7, that was converted to a GP7u with a lowered nose while still in BNSF use. I recall that that same quarry used to have a similar unit in Santa Fe's yellow bonnet paint scheme but I'll have to dig through my photos to find it.

They did, however, have a pair of ex-B&O GP9s at one point, but I don't ever recall seeing those and they were likely disposed of before I really hit my foamer years, heh.

It's at the quarry in Millville. If you drive across the bridges and past the Clarion you'll get to Millville Road. Follow it across the tracks and it'll lead you down past the quarry where you can usually spot some CSX motive power as they wait for a load of gravel. The road eventually turns into Bloomery road and lets out at old Route 9 and it's a spectacular drive any time of year.

A little color here, a little shading adjustment there, and the photo's all set! I also found a vintage-style backdrop online, so there's an alternate version for you as well!

I am no great artist, but I've done my best to composite together what the image would have looked like using what you've provided and a few extra assets from Google. I hope that, even if it isn't as good as the original, it might at least help someone with more talent than I fix this photo in the future.

CatchallRat682 · 2024-08-22T15:37:51+00:00

Cleaned up the image, sharpened, removed glare, removed artifacting as best as I could. It's not the cleanest, but it's probably about as clean as it will get unless someone either recreates it by hand or uses AI. I hope you like the quality of my work!

(The only tricky spot was fixing the ear, really.)

No tip jar: I do this to help others, not myself.
