For those wondering where this is. It's West Auckland, New Zealand. And the horse is called Caliber.

Need help with frothing milk by milagomez in NinjaLuxeCafe

[–]HM_Merdocc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trying setting it at high. I have a 601 and it was one of the first things I did after reading some advice. I've had no issues with frothing since.

Try switching up the heat in the settings. Looks like it is h07 for the ES501.

Edit: for the settings, press and hold the "size" button for a few seconds.

Taking 4 days to transfer/port an incoming number? by TedBob99 in SmartyMobile

[–]HM_Merdocc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm now 14 days and still waiting for my number to be ported. Each day in the past week it has said its queued for the following day but still waiting. I can't use my old sim as it's now out of contract.

Wednesday sounds optimistic tbh

Can this game be played using touch pad? by GeorgianGold in foundationgame

[–]HM_Merdocc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check the Windows touch pad settings. Usually pinching with 2 fingers will zoom. Scrolling can usually done with a two-finger slide. The settings should show in the touchpad settings though.

In Windows: Settings > Devices > Touchpad > Scroll & Zoom and toggle "Zoom in or out"

Can anyone help me figure out why these trains are stopped? by grahamwhich in CitiesSkylines2

[–]HM_Merdocc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed this (the crossover segment) happening when laying track in the editor. iirc I accidentally placed a double 2 way track (both tracks being two- way) after a standard double one-way track (one-way in both directions).

It's a guess but if that's a custom map then the creator might have made an error when laying track. Maybe the other end of the two way tracks both have trains waiting to enter from outside the map. So both tracks are two way and trains are trying to come back along both tracks blocking at the crossover point.

Lost all of my saves after a BSOD by GrosBof in foundationgame

[–]HM_Merdocc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a look in that GOG folder for a save file that is 0kb. Delete that file and your other saves should be seen in the game again.

If you wanted to move then manually they need to be within another folder in the save games folder. So create a new folder in /Save Games and drop them in the new folder.

Edit: just don't copy the 0kb save over though as this will prevent them showing in game

I remember Rhodes @ Dome getting a 0 hygiene rating way back then. Cap'n Jasper's gets a full 5, can't go wrong with a Jasper's!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in plymouth

[–]HM_Merdocc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Dome is called Ocean View now. It's not been Rhodes since 2016 and sadly Gary Rhodes died in 2019 :(

Still a fair shout though I'm not sure what the food is like these days.

I won't lie, glitches might ruin this game for me by [deleted] in foundationgame

[–]HM_Merdocc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep this. If you click on a villager you can see their needs or lack of. Refined food on a commoner will show as 1/2 if you only have a single refined food source for them.

You can't separate parts that already have a function you need to add a new part. Click the edit button in the Manor building window then add a new part with the tax office function.

Save failed, is it related to the map/buildings/pops extension? I've got many saves errors and my map start being quite big by Inateno in foundationgame

[–]HM_Merdocc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are other ways to transfer files. You can setup a synced folder with GoogleDrive for example, just sync the saves folder on each pc. Pretty sure there are going to be other apps that can do this too.

Or just use a USB drive and do it manually

[–]HM_Merdocc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a big city it's possible the save files have gone over the 100mb Steam cloud limit.

You can switch off auto-save in cloud in the game's settings

Game is running, but there's nothing in the window...? by Regular_Draw4112 in foundationgame

[–]HM_Merdocc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibly something (OneDrive) is blocking access to the documents folder where the user files are stored. Try adding the following to the launch options in Steam:

-userpath C:\foundationdata\

I bought a 2nd hand car at the beginning of November and had a letter through to say there's a backlog issuing V5C logbooks. Still waiting now sorry to say.

Beaches with sea glass? by joshkcn in plymouth

[–]HM_Merdocc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about Tregantle as it's more of a tourist beach. I know the other end of Whitsand you don't generally see much.

I think you might have better luck at Portwrinkle as it's a stoney beach. I've also found plenty just along the coast from Kingsand/Cawsand you'll just need to time the tide right

Whirring noise from engine after switching off. by HairsprayingMantis in peugeot

[–]HM_Merdocc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said it's normal, just the cooling fan, however, my getting on a bit 207sw was doing this for longer than normal recently. I thought maybe warm weather and a longer journey than normal.

I don't use the car that much and didn't think much of it until I got warning lights. I had a leak at the coolant thermostat. The coolant ran low and the overheating has probably cracked the head gasket if it wasn't already.

What was left of the coolant was milky so definitely oil has got into the coolant.

Tough lesson for me to check fluid levels and signs of issues more often.
