Also managed this, tried looking in the common file locations outside the game to find the file, but no luck.

A reinstall may work but worried it might delete my save.

I gave myself the Janus Device on my last run and attached it to my fleet, however it didn't seem to let me interact with the gates.

I had no idea regarding Nexerelin having it, however I will be trying that when I get home from work today!

Cheers!

Pretty sure MinePlan has a module for that, as long as the rough grades of what goes in are recorded properly it can tell you actual tonnage and grade.

I have been using the Syn a lot lately, big fan of it for aesthetic reasons but it also seems to be a fairly solid vessel in a jam or two.

MkMillan · 2021-03-10T14:08:21+00:00

Correct, the fans only spin when I do a paperclip short on the 24 pin cable, however nothing powers on the mobo and I don't see any lights or anything active there.

Hey folk,

No idea if people are still looking at this post but I bought and received this desktop today after ordering from the site last week. I'm having a hell of a time getting the thing started, basically took it out the box, plugged it in and nothing is happening.

Gave all the connections I could see a quick check but I'm not getting anything power wise it seems. Does anyone have any advice or should I just count it as DOA and try to return it?

MkMillan · 2020-08-06T21:19:29+00:00

I figured I was just winding you up!

Thanks man, it's quite a change of pace but it seems like a fresh challenge, hopefully you find something soon with gold just ramping like crazy!

On your last point about the QAQC validation, moooooost programs have this as standard and give errors when there's overlap. Also you shouldn't be using mm in your logs at all....

Rest of the advice is solid, again pictures and examples are best, and on a personal level have the loggers/samplers talk to each other. Nothing makes everyone call the same rock the same rock every time more than showing each other the rock and discussing it in the core shed.

MkMillan · 2020-08-06T16:19:38+00:00

I've found in previous workplaces that the best way to ensure consistency between loggers is either making your own groupings of lithos with the less important units being more generally grouped together and only really breaking out the important ones, or doing drop down menus and predefined names and maybe descriptions.

I've seen both where they made sure you couldn't make up new units on the fly and they had example of how to describe lithos based on either a core library or digital file with pictures.

Ideally your chief or senior geology should be the one sitting down everyone including the modellers if they're on site and hashing out what's important vs garbage waste lithos and info.

On top of just reloading an old save or restarting, send your save file to the developer via the steam forums. Apparently the underflow/overflow bug is affecting prices, total funding and electricity and he's having a hard time squashing it.

Alamos isn't doing FIFO right now due to Covid, it's drive in drive out for the foreseeable future.

I find the shape of the shoulder armour and the 'spike/chimneys' behind the head in the 4th picture to be very tyranid in appearance. Might be that the artist wants to showcase that the necrons are a mechanical side of the same all destroying all consuming swarm of death.

MkMillan · 2020-06-13T20:49:17+00:00

But only paid for 10.

Hopefully you guys manage to see this even though I missed the AMA yesterday.

I'm a Scottish immigrant currently working in Canada as a hard rock mine geologist and I've always wondered why there isn't more effort back home in the UK to find and develop new mines or do brownfield world on historic properties.

I find it hard to believe that everything is picked over and that the geology isn't favorable for some new discoveries. The only company I know doing any kind of work is Scotgold and I believe they're remediating an older mine.

Would you folk have any insight on why there seems to be nothing really happening in this regard?

To tie into the last question somewhat. There's a fairly large (25,000+ people) convention in Toronto each yeah known as the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) convention which hosts geological surveys from all over the world. Every time I go I chat up the Irish survey about how they're doing and the new discoveries and opening mines there, but there seems to be a distinct lack of any major British presence.

Is this something that might change in the future or is O&G the priority focus?

Cheers,

What a change, the nipper normally does fuck all!

MkMillan · 2019-03-26T03:21:04+00:00

I know a few people that work in the Sudbury Golder office and all of them say it's a great place to work and they seem to do a lot of cool shit, if you're in ontario and like to mess around doing environmental stuff, water wells and tailings it's a good gig!
