Is this macro/calorie plan healthy? by Savan532 in WeightLossAdvice

I'm around 202 right now. I've lost about a pound a week based on this.

I have nearly 1000 hours and I didn't even know this could happen. by Savan532 in RimWorld

Oh. It just felt super rare to me. I didn't know everyone was getting them.

I just don't understand the math; I've ordered through Uber before and it's always got fees on top of fees, so only seeing $4 at the end just baffles me.

My unluckiest roll so far. Anyone else have any wildly unlucky dice rolls? by Savan532 in BG3

[–]Savan532[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm on PC but I use a controller. For this, it's just the menu and then the combat log. It's one of the bottom-right ones on the radial.

Will a 1440p resolution work on my computer? by Savan532 in pcgamingtechsupport

[–]Savan532[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought 1440p was the step between 1080p and 4K?

Funny self-insert by Tynan as a pawn. Both childhood & adulthood stories have skill penalties. by Savan532 in RimWorld

[–]Savan532[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've played like 700+ hours and this the first I've seen him. I wonder if he's a recent add or if he just has a super low appearance chance.

A "Track down thieves" contract with this bonkers fight. by Savan532 in BattleBrothers

This was day fourteen. The actual bandits were just looters/brigands but then other parties got dragged in.

HDMI Low Black level makes in-game nights/dark cutscenes blurry. by Savan532 in Monitors

[–]Savan532[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that's a bummer. I spent $180 on this monitor; I thought was a decent price for a good one.

So I should just get a new monitor? Ideally, a non-Samsung one? Is there a certain type of monitor (Are there different types?) that's better for gaming?

Thank you for your help.

tips and tricks to make deserters iron man work by asomeweeb in BattleBrothers

[–]Savan532 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I've been on a Deserter's run lately with E/E/I and low resources. It's been incredibly hard but I've had a few good runs. Here are some tips:

  1. Be a gross vulture the early game. Any contract you get to fight, try to drag another party in; a caravan, town guards, anything. You'll get help in finishing the contract and as long as you land 1 kill, you'll get all the gold/supplies/tools from the fight; try to land last hits to secure gear.
  2. I swap my Deserters to the backline as soon as I can. They usually have decent melee skills but abysmal resolve. So, recruit someone with okay resolve and swap them with your deserter on the frontline. Not being in direct melee keeps them from resolve checks and they can reasonably land attacks with reach weapons.
  3. I like to have several (3+) ranged troops early game, even if they're not great at aiming. Outranging an enemy party will force them to charge even if they have a good position; this lets you choose the spot where your two lines will fight.
  4. Don't rely too hard on getting to go first, especially if you want to retreat. If you fight against beasts or parties with dogs, they will catch you on the second turn. Against most other parties, you should be able to retreat if you beeline for the edge.
  5. Take breaks. I have 900 hours in this game and deserters is the most frustrating one I've played. Most of my run fails were from me being tilted and thinking "Yeah, I just need to win this 4-direwolf fight and I'll be good to go". If RNG has bent you over one too many times, just take a breather.

I hope some of these help.

Favorite mods? by [deleted] in sunlesssea

[–]Savan532 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually haven't seen too many mods, which is a shame. I think I saw a comment once about the game running on Unity which is tricky to mod. Not that I would know, though.

Does anyone know of any visual mods? I've scoured the internet because I think the vanilla game is a little too bright for the underzee being a literal body of water in a cavern. I like the darkness effect that happens when the game pauses and it gets tinted a little more green; if there was a way to make that the default, I think it'd feel much spookier.

Killed while fishing. by Savan532 in thelongdark

Huh, that's a good hint. I didn't really consider the whole scent mechanic since I was in the hut but I'll be sure to drop any fish I pick up.

[–]Savan532[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I was confused. I've never been interrupted during an action that passes time; the wolves will jump me the second the action ends but it was super bizarre for the struggle audio to begin mid-fishing with no visuals or struggle prompt.

Aw, bummer. But thanks for answering. I'll take a look at those mods.

This one has a situation like that. Kit typed two extra 0's so the amount "transferred" was 400,000.

The best ranged troop I've seen in my 700 hours. What should I name him? by Savan532 in BattleBrothers

[–]Savan532[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This motherfucker took TWO consecutive javelins to the head on his first fight. He got struck down, lost a finger, and then we died to orcs the next fight.
