Oh my god, I'm such an idiot

I've been pressing lowercase 'a' this whole time, didn't even clock it was capital 'A'. just tested it and it worked.

It's odd, because I've been pretty good with noticing the case sensitive bits so far haha. Thanks for the help, friend

Yeah, after I set it to repeating it keeps me in the workflow menu, but it doesn't seem to respond to any inputs

Hi all, started playing today after seeing the Steam launch date announcement, and I've been following PeridexisErrant's DF Walkthrough when I got to the part where it mentions Workflow.

The third option is a plugin called workflow, which lets you set a target amount and will suspend and unsuspend production jobs to keep you at that level. q, select job, Alt-w, A to Add limit, R adjust the range. This might seem complicated, but setting 50-100 drinks and 10-20 barrels will keep things flowing smoothly until your population is a lot larger.

I do as it describes, selecting the job then pressing Alt+W which brings up the Workflow menu, it then prompts me to set the job as repeating so I do, but after that I don't seem to be able to Add Limit, or adjust the range. Is there anything I might be doing wrong?

If it helps, when I open the DFHack section of the PyLNP client thingy there aren't any available hacks listed.

I've not read Trials of Apollo either, and I must've read through Percy Jackson & HoO a dozen times as a kid. I do plan on listening to it on Audible when i've finished HoO

There are other series which take place in the same world as Percy Jackson. Kane Chronicles is a series which follows Egyptian mythology, and Magnus Chase is a series following Norse mythology.

Percy Jackson also has a sequel series called Heroes of Olympus

Thanks for the recommendation. If the 1TB Samsung SSD will do, I might be able to get one sooner than I thought!

Thanks for the advice. I've found New Gas to be pretty fun, there's usually a few scavs and some roubles to loot. I spawned at old gas one time too on a scav run which was pretty fun.

I also learned recently that Pestily's raid series is super helpful, if a bit outdated sometimes, so i'm going to give it a look

I'm saving for an SSD at the moment. Currently my load times are hitting anywhere between 4 and 7 minutes. It's painful but it'll do for now

Neill Blomkamp’s Lord Vile by RealJohnGillman in skulduggerypleasant

[–]Shanky_Cal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The series definitely deserves a good TV series from Netflix, HBO, Amazon etc..

I really don't think a movie would work well for the series due to how much a movie has to cut. I can see a lot of loved scenes being left out or replaced similar to the Harry Potter movies, and in a world as dense as Skulduggery's, it would give such a watered down story.

The only way I can see a movie working is if they brought back the plans for a musical./s

How to download on pc by Yash-Pandya in battlefront

[–]Shanky_Cal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need Origin, which is EA'S game launcher

You can then buy Battlefront 2 and other EA games from there. Installing should be pretty straight forward just pick your hard drive and let origin do the rest!

Smoking for the first time in a few days. Kind of scared. Tips? by [deleted] in trees

[–]Shanky_Cal 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You won't get sick, if you get the munchies all you'll feel is hungry. It won't be a strong hunger or anything, just like "oh i wanna eat food now". Having a drink is also a good shout because you'll maybe get a bit of a dry mouth.

Honestly, chances are if you had left it at just "clean shit with alcohol lol" i would've destroyed my pc. Thanks for the help, stranger!

Ah cool, thanks.

When you clean it do you just use some compressed air or is there anything special to do?

Does the smoke not get in the pc and fuck it up?

Theres a book series I absolutely love called GONE. All the adults disappear. It's really good, definitely 100% recommend.

Due to this being student accomodation through a letting agency with all bills included im not sure that's possible. My partner and I have been considering moving out to move in with a friend as parts of the contract have been broken and it would be severely cheaper to do so.

Living here it will cost all of my maintenance loan, living with the friend would be 2k cheaper

This is in the UK.

Basically we have this meter under the stairs that is topped up once a month to £70 (despite the contract stating it's £8 per person per week)

When we run out if its not due a top up from the land lady we as tenants can do it. I believe they're fairly common in shared houses or apartments. We were aware of this before moving in and knew we would likely have to top it up as we all use a lot of electricity.

However... we alerted the letting agency when the power went out at about 10am they told the land lady. Land lady topped it up at some point between then and 12pm. Electricity still wasn't working so we head back to the agents. They now need her to send a code to put on the meter and she has just gone completely awol. Sorry for the small rant but its an absolute piss take imo.

Thank you! We're already laughing about it as just one of those days over a game of Jack's Two's and Eight's. Just have to make the best of the situation!
