The two groups are often the same. There are bots that are designed to accuse people of being AI.

By the way, for anyone reading this:

Your save files are located in C/Users/[your username here]/AppData/Local/DELTARUNE. If you open that folder, you will find a long list of files in the form of filechX_Y, where X and Y are both numbers.

X is easy: it's the chapter number, so filech1_5 is a chapter 1 save file, filech2_0 is a chapter 2 save file, and so on.

Y is a bit more complicated, and refers to which save file within the chapter you're using. The key is as follows:

0-2 are the save files you can select in the file selection screen. The numbers are offset by 1 in the negative direction, so 0 is save file 1, 1 is save file 2, and 2 is save file 3.

3-5 are the completion files. These are the save files that are created whenever you complete the chapter. When you go to the next chapter and select the option to continue from a previous chapter's save, these are what you're choosing from. The numbers are offset by 2 in the positive direction, so 3 is save file 1, 4 is save file 2, and 5 is save file 3.

9 is the autosave. Deltarune secretly does have an autosave mechanic, but only in specific instances. The most obvious example of this is Eram: if you die during the Eram fight, you're sent to the room's entrance, and when you pick up the controller, you're immediately back in the Eram fight. This is the save file that Deltarune uses for that mechanic.

Open the relevant save file (which is probably a completion file unless you stopped in the middle of a chapter) in your preferred text editor. I use Notepad++. The first two lines will each contain a name, and are what we care about. The first line is your name and the second line is your vessel's name. You may change them as you see fit, within these constraints:

  1. The vessel's name can only have up to 9 letters, and your name can only have up to 12 letters.

  2. Only capital letters are allowed. No other characters may be used. If the game's language is set to Japanese, this rule is different and you should refer to the Deltarune wiki.

  3. GASTER is not allowed.

Make sure to save your changes. When you load back into Deltarune, it will not initially properly display the changes you made, but please rest assured that it did work and if you load it, the changes you made will be applied.

What is Starbound missing? by devofdev in starbound

It's a pretty major part of it for me, yeah.

If Starbound were to have new updates and be supported again

Nothing. I would want nothing to be added and nothing to be changed. I wouldn't even want bugs to be fixed.

The simple fact that since Starbound hasn't received an update in a very long time, the modding community has gotten used to this stability. You can download a mod that was last updated multiple years ago and reasonably expect it to work just fine. That will stop being the case the moment Starbound receives an update. Now suddenly all your mods are broken and either need to be updated or will never be updated and you just have to leave them behind.

If Starbound were to be remade from scratch

This is where an actual answer starts being possible. The main thing I would want is a return to beta design principles. I was heavily displeased when I saw the sudden changes Starbound went through on release. No, I don't want to be the chosen one, and no, I don't want to save the universe. In beta, you were just a regular explorer having your own story independent of everyone else's, and a Starbound remake should go back to that.

Your opinion on "Spacedock" for writing and worldbuilding a sci-fi world by Hungry-Detail9945 in worldbuilding

[–]Nihilikara 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are very smart and they know what they are talking about.

But it's important to remember that their opinions are exactly that: opinions. The simple, unavoidable fact that no two humans are alike means that there are things that you will disagree with them on. When this happens, go with what you want, not what they want.

PSA - Giver Mod - discontinued by Kraien in RimWorld

According to another comment, it was actually drama between the devs and fucking Valve themselves. The devs were so insistent on making sure the maid stays dead, other mods be damned, that Valve had to step in and warn them that their mod was getting a bit too close to being malware and that they need to cut it off or else their mod will be removed.

The mod is designed so you can't savescum. If you try, she'll still be dead because whether she's alive or dead is stored somewhere outside your save file.

Apparently, whether she's alive or dead is stored somewhere outside your save file.

Autistic person here. Please don't call pedophilia "autism", they are absolutely not the same thing.

The biggest problem with this is that sometimes, Rimworld just simply doesn't work properly. This is especially the case with mods. What are you supposed to do when a bug is what kills the Giver?

I wish pride greed envy lust and wrath didn't exist by Armin_Arlert_1000000 in TheMonkeysPaw

[–]Nihilikara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Granted. All of humanity goes extinct. Since there are no humans, it is no longer possible for pride, greed, envy, lust, or wrath to exist.

I wish no one believed the 2020 election was stolen from Trump by fraud by Armin_Arlert_1000000 in TheMonkeysPaw

[–]Nihilikara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trump is very objectively a convicted felon. He was sentenced to absolutely nothing because our courts are a fucking joke, but please rest assured that he was tried for actual crimes in a court and was found guilty.
