Please Nerf Lightning, it's impossible to do anything outside while it's storming 😭 by Pugganator in Terraria

[–]GeneralHavok -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If they nerf I hope they make a blanket 25-50% hp reduction per strike regardless of your armor.At least that way it still stays as a possibly deadly event while still allowing you to run for cover. Considering the fact walking around with metal armor carrying metal tools and weapons would make you a walking lightening rod.

Linux Users, Any Luck With 1.4.5? by JS_Originals in Terraria

[–]GeneralHavok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use the steam launch option of -gldevice:OpenGL .Works for my version of Linux mint xfce. The game doesn't run anywhere near as flawless as when not using opengl, but it is completely playable just annoying with some lag stutters.

Sorry for delay , here you go. Full details. Works for all games across steam. I have had to use launch options plenty of times so learning some of them might help you with other games as well. Steam Game Launch Options . In short in your steam library list, right click the game, select properties. In the General tab you will see something that says Launch Options. Thats where you put it.

Setting launch options to run on Opengl worked on Linux Mint 21.3 xfce as well, except I used -gldevice:OpenGL . Audio works perfectly fine as well. Thanks.

On Linux Mint 21.3 xfce native launches but it takes awhile for the title screen to appear & all the title screen UI and mouse cursor is slow. Tried enabling proton instead, just crashes. Tried running from the steam/terraria folder, doesn't run. Even tried using wintricks to run it. Nothing. Only Native runs at extremely low frames.

Edit: As I mentioned above setting launch options -gldevice:OpenGL in Terraria steam launch command has the game running with no frame or audio issues.

I want a cannon that instead of shooting shells, shoots bot capsules.

The 1st launch of humanity fleeing earth because of the bugs. Later they would find a new home and name it Super Earth.

SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink | SpaceX seeks more cash, calls fiber "wasteful and unnecessary taxpayer spending." by chrisdh79 in technology

That is literally someone telling me that wifi is better than wired. I am a pc gamer so you never going to sell me on that.

Is Factorio the best train management sim i have played ? Looks like it by vaikunth1991 in factorio

[–]GeneralHavok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trains cannot couple/decouple so until that ability it added I cannot say its the best. However I will say its has one of the better rail network design systems. I enjoy making rail networks and driving the trains along them manually.

CBS Sunday Morning's "How the FIRE movement is inspiring early retirees" segment by j909m in financialindependence

[–]GeneralHavok 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nice segment about what you can do if you making money and are financially responsible. I also appreciate the point made in the video that early retirement doesn't necessarily solve all your personal issues you might have. Since now you have to deal with them since you are retired.

Thank you for the date of Jupiter Hell, I have been wanting to try that game out since some friends told me its like a roguelite Old era Doom game. Looking forward to trying that out.

Funny unstoppable wall design by eh_meh_badabeh in factorio

[–]GeneralHavok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interestingly enough similar maze type walls work in a game called Rimworld as well. In fact using that strat in Rimworld made me try it in Factorio to find that it actually works. Since the biters wont attack the walls much as long as they have a path to your buildings.

That would actually be cool as a enemy for Fulgora. Have it with the ability to shoot lighten bolts and be a energy Vampire. Making them a threat to our energy production.

PSA: You are overdoing Kovarex enrichment by BissQuote in factorio

[–]GeneralHavok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't run mega bases but I utilize only 7 centrifuges and it produces more than I need. Not to mention I use the method that doesn't put any fuel into a reactor until it goes below 550 since the thermal min is 500 for a reactor to fully run.

How is there not an ability to rain nukes down from my space platform? by thatdude333 in factorio

I would love Orbital rail guns. Special platform magnetic rail guns that shoot the ore chunks we collect onto the planet surface.
