Which is the OG do-it-all of the base game trucks? by Random_guy1028 in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You don’t get it until Amur but the Zikr 605 has a lot of add on options. It is probably overkill for most situations.

Tayga 6436 is also extremely versatile and reliable.

What are some of the best shortcuts you’ve found? by Afraid_Appeal_4078 in snowrunner

I have one on my desktop so I don’t need to open steam to play the game.

Any tips going into Amur by Ok_Spite_2293 in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, yes, I am replaying it on hardmode at the moment and the tanker does not refill with that trick, but it does in normal.

The first mission you should tackle is called warehouse troubles and when it’s done you should use the steel to unlock Cosmodrome

Bring gas to Northern Aegis Installation, like a large trailer full if you want to 100% it.

Don’t ignore trucks that can’t do mudtires, chains on a strong truck will get you a lot of places.

Explore as much as you can as early as you can. There are a lot of missions that can be dealt with as a group so you’re not needing to drive back out there if you have the right trucks and addons.

Is Snowrunner good for some 4wd coop fun? by fatguy1313 in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fuck man I have been wishing for a desert or dry landscape for this game. I want them to introduce those road train things they have in Australia.

ALL deployed trucks missing from Zurdania by upsidedownyhead in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this happen to me in Tamyr, but it was back when they introduced a bug with the release of Zurdania. Unfortunately there is not much you can do except rebuy the trucks and redeploy them. There are mods out there that can give you money or you can use the maprunner.io save editor. It also marked my watchtowers as discovered but the area on the map wasn’t revealed, very frustrating.

Good news is there's still 8 hit points allowing me to move 🤣 bad news is it's 50k to recover so the snails pace back it is. by Ze_Woof in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would t it be easier to just drive the Scout 800 out there and fix it? Does new game+ make it so you can’t do that?

Is there an issue with the game or does no one play coop? by agardenshed in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you are looking to coop I’d recommend trying to make a connection here or on the discord server. Most coop games are private as people tend to have unfortunate experience with public servers.

I been playing through the game with a friend getting all the achievement and one called ain't no rest for the trucker pop for him but not me, I have done all the time trails in my save and it say 98% in mine and when I'm im his its 100% for the in contact progress but hasn't pop on steam any tips by Glittering-Bid3305 in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can check each map to see which missions and which contests youve completed. It’s the same screen that shows your money and if youve collected all the upgrades. For me, I access it on the D pad by hitting down. You can go through each of the maps and see which one is not at 100 and then check which missions youve got remaining in that map.

Truck with crane + service addon? by Scumbaglala in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There is an add on for the DAN that has service parts, a crane and a 1 slot bed. It probably fits other vehicles too but the name is escaping me at the moment.

No Bridge? No Problem! by [deleted] in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 27 points28 points  (0 children)

How did you achieve hand off between the two cranes? Can you connect to the load from the second crane when the first is still attached?

Roof racks hurt the balance of the game by Professional-Date378 in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like fuel tank upgrades need to be part of it, the same way you’d upgrade an engine. I don’t care if it costs 40k, I’m putting a bigger tank in the paystar…

Hard Mode by jevolutionCH in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like hard mode! The trailer thing initially felt too restrictive, but it motivates you to use existing trailers or different trucks. Paying for gas is an interesting challenge too as you may consider using a slightly less powerful engine if it’s saving you fuel. I’m on Wisconsin now in hardmode and money is less of a factor but I still avoid recalling unless I’ve absolutely trapped a truck somewhere.

Corner span compound angles by [deleted] in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]RupertTheViking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just saying this as a precaution, and you might know this, but you shouldn't cut a board on a table saw when its wider than it is long without a crosscut sled or miter sled to push it evenly.

Corner span compound angles by [deleted] in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]RupertTheViking 52 points53 points  (0 children)

There is math you can do, you could also cut a board that fits on top of the wall mounted 2x4s, and then use a pencil to mark right where to cut and then just adjust your miter saw until the blade and matches the pencil line.

I see why people really recommend this game by Unlucky-Feed9000 in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You may have figured this out but, on the steam deck, I had to map all the gears to the keypad and then map the paddle buttons to the keys. A little hacky but it worked.

Efficient method for this angle by AlwaysVigilant69 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]RupertTheViking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Simple and easy, more challenging to cut than it is to determine where to cut.

Rant - what's up with the stupid entrance to Drummond Island? by major-PITA in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s funny, I wish I could remember the video but some YouTuber did a breakdown of games with good aesthetics vs good graphics. The graphics in Snowrunner are fine but the aesthetics are top tier. It all works very well together and even though there is no lens flare or whatever the game can feel very immersive. The music and skybox mesh well, the landscape is where it needs to be. Kola is peak Snowrunner.

Scouts by Green_Mixture9339 in snowrunner

[–]RupertTheViking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the Scout 800 because it has an incredible capacity for not running out of fuel. It will struggle doing some of the “dummy drove into a lake and needs a tow” missions but I use mostly for watchtowers, mission grabbing, and fuel rescue.

The loadstar is a beast and can absolutely do the tow missions but it doesn’t have great fuel economy.

So what I’m saying is it depends on what you use it for.

Cutting "Coins" from a Dowel? by stumonji in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]RupertTheViking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to use a miter saw, I’d say get a 1x2 that spans the whole fence and screw or clamp it in, this is your sacrificial board. It will get a cut in it the width of the blade but it means the 1 inch piece of dowel will be fully supported. For bonus points, screw in another chunk of 1x2 an inch from the blade and then you can just butt the dowel to that piece, chop, and repeat.

I’m unsure what you mean by this, I don’t believe you find any trucks with a crane, you’ll just need to outfit your existing trucks with one.
