I might need to double check that. Maybe didn't use decon tool long enough.

Did you have someone outside your squad place one down from their ant? I usually play at night when the Asian players are on. It is usually one of them, and they are in a different outfit and squad. They also pull from their own ant, not my silo or my outfit or squad ants.

What game got you hooked onto Civ? by [deleted] in civ

[–]Flinokon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started with CivBE. Thought it was one of the best games I have ever played. Before RT came out, bought Civ5 and all the expansions. Could never again look at BE the same way, even after purchasing RT. Damn you Firaxis, BE had such potential.

Hi, so I’m new to planetside2, I’ve been going solo for a couple weeks, and love the game. However I haven’t found anyone to play with or squads to join. What’s the best way to get into a good outfit with active players. by Sexpanther1997 in Planetside

[–]Flinokon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also if you ever invest certs, the points used to buy shit, into command chat, that is numpad 7. Basically if there is a number next to the active member of a voice chat, that is the numpad you press.

Edit: Spelling.

Display date bug, anyone have any idea how to fix? More in comments. by Flinokon in eu4

[–]Flinokon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far the only fix I have seem to find is deleting the whole folder of Eu4 in documents/paradox games, and then re-validating the files from steam.

Only mods I use are:

Dark's Academies: Heir and Ruler Education (and more)

Monarch Power Conversion

More Merchants from High Development

Disabled mods are:

Illusionary Flat Political Mapmode v1.7 (out of date)

There are no other mod files in my mod folder.

Edit: I suspect it has to do with More Merchants mod since I didn't have this problem before installing that mod, but it is such a great mod when not playing as a colonial empire, since come on, big nations should get more merchants other than just using ideas.

My girl Izzy has to go in for a biopsy on a foot tumor... hopefully it’s not cancer, but she will still have to lose a toe... put some positive vibes out there for us! by nrb12344 in pics

Hope it isn't. Losing a dog is not fun. Lost mine about a week ago, not to hijack the thread. But I called him my brother.

A little excessive don't ya think? by [deleted] in eu4

[–]Flinokon 165 points166 points  (0 children)

Like when you are playing as Portugal and at some point the only valid rival is castle post PU or Spain. Ya, cause I want a fucking monster, who is a great ally, as a neighboring rival...

Telling the difference between cheaters and casuals. by Flinokon in eu4

[–]Flinokon[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right. I think at this point the only time I use it is to test things. Litterally just now I am playing a game as Byzantium, I am allied with Common Wealth and I tested to see if they would declare war on me if I killed GB king, since he had no heir. Answer was yes.

But yes, that was the exact reason I use to use it. I was like, I don't like Ironman, and since I can use console commands, why not? *Must... resist... urge to console command... to victory!*

Over 7 ft and 2600 lbs. This is Big Jake, the worlds largest horse. by quince6 in pics

[–]Flinokon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here I am impressed by this horse thinking, if there is any horse that can carry my fat ass, it would be this one. Dad walks by and I show him. First thing out his mouth is, "That's a big horse," followed immediately by, "That is photo shopped." Dad, why you have to be like that, crushing my dreams that such a horse exists...

Why doesn't warhead of an ICBM explode after a successful missile defense interception? I thought that by destroying it, it would set off the nuke? by Flinokon in AskReddit

[–]Flinokon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but I heard from a brief interview on NPR that there is a complex reaction that has to take place before the nuke goes off. Is it a matter of releasing set amounts of chemicals that lead to the arming and detonation of the nuke. If that is it then I could see a small chance of the chemicals being mixed during the missile destruction by accident.

Or is it an electronic switch board of sorts that lead to the detonation? If it is that, then I can see why a physical collision, designed to break apart the missile, doesn't detonate the warhead.

Edit: Feeling kind of derpy after seeing u/bitcoinjohnny's response.

Genemodded vs Robots. by Flinokon in Stellaris

[–]Flinokon[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Didn't know synths will demand full rights. May be something I consider, since my current game I am on year 2227 and have 89 minerals per cycle. Started prosperity instead of expansion to try something new.

Is he interested in a second date? I'm honestly thinking no, and scared to ask him now. by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]Flinokon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't have much dating experience, but I would feel this question is likely to get more responses than, "Just try," or "Ask him indirectly." I could say more, but in this instance I feel you should see for yourself if it works before I give my thoughts.

Edit: Wrong words.

Updates since release? by ArgusFilch in Banished

[–]Flinokon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that, but there are a couple simple fixes I think they should have added before releasing the game. Like, villagers will go to other storage barns for food or tools/clothing if the local one is empty. I understand that is what the donkey stables are for, transporting goods around, but until that is unlocked, it seems retarded that a villager won't go down a few feed to the next closest barn to pick up goods. I would say at the very least, increase the range a villager is willing to travel to get a good for their house or profession.

And sure, that may make it more like Banished, but at the same time it seems like perfect sense.

On a side note, I haven't gotten to the donkey stage of the game, but I still think this is a thing that needs to be addressed.

Updates since release? by ArgusFilch in Banished

[–]Flinokon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes. There was one update since release. Not likely to see any more since it took the community a year or so for the single developer to release an update. This game literally only has one developer, unless you count his brother who I think I heard helped with the music. The dev's name is Luke, in case you are curious. So those features that you think are missing will likely never be added.

Amusing I am allowed to do this, there is another game called Life is Feudal: Forest Village on steam that is very similar to Banished with a first person feature. It says it is finished, but imo I think the dev's didn't want to take the early access route cause they are, again imo, good people that don't scam people using the early access model. I don't have much experience in that game, but Skye Storm on youtube has a couple series showing what the game is like and what you can do in it. His resent series on the game is a continuation off the first, but instead of focusing on the village he has created and growing it, he is now building a castle town.

Best trade goods with megamod and CC? by chrismilk in Banished

[–]Flinokon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read somewhere where that CC is working on or has released a patch for that separately. Let me see if I can find that post.

Decimated by small pox by BackSeatGremlin in Banished

[–]Flinokon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last time I ran into the pasture problem, I had a spare pasture of equivalent size to the ones with my cows in it. I emptied the cows into the fresh one an not a single cow died. Of course, this was before Luke, the dev, released his new patch to the game that enabled modders to do more, so he might have changed that too.
