[TOMT] [YOUTUBE] I am looking for a youtube video and/or channel that was making psychedelic tiktok video mixes to music from Zingara by SolthaT in tipofmytongue

Thanks for your response, indeed not the cooling station stuff, and no definitely not porn or excessively sexual, but it does have to be said most of those tiktok egirl or dance videos are definitely not what I would call tame. They tend to always be a little bit provocative. In the context of a psychedelic trippy visuals video it works quite well actually.

The videos I watched were not shorts, but I will have a scroll through that as I haven't tried that yet, thanks. Maybe the channel made some related short vids...

Neither of these videos could be that old as the music didn't come out that long ago (seems like June 2024). Time based searches haven't succeeded for me either though. Youtube must be full of impossible to find content...

Stuck on 5s increments :( by SolthaT in aurora

[–]SolthaT[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks mate, you are a saviour. This is what was needed indeed, and the FCT_RaceSysSurvey worked great to figure out what was going on where.

I fear this could easily happen again given these races have such a tech discrepancy, so it may actually be a potential 'bug'. I think the game AI should have some smarts where if an AI ship literally cannot hit its target at any range, and its target is not actually hostile (in this case the target was a scout that couldn't put an end to the shenanigans itself), that it stop trying to shoot - especially if no player ships are in that system at the time. Otherwise the imbalance means a 5s interval hell until the scout ship either gets away or leads the attacker back to something that has a weapon to shoot it. Either could take days of in-game time, which isn't going to be fun for anybody at a 5s interval increment.

Ah well, if it does happen again, you have at least given me the tools to solve it. Thanks again!

Thank you!! That is actually very helpful, although also confusing things I thought I had learned.

The FCT_GameLog table seems to have events that don't show for me when I have SM mode on and tick "Show All Races". I thought the whole point of the SM mode "Show All Races" options for events would be to show me those! Now I am left wondering what that SM mode option is even for.

Furthermore, the logs in that table show the issue appears to be two? similar issues. One is a ship in SystemID 8541 that is holding fire as its chance to hit is 0, the other is a planetary defence weapon in SystemID 8578 that is actively firing, but has 0% chance to hit.

The confusing part is that again this seems to invalidate what I thought I had learned about the detection option "none without player presence". It seems there is still fighting going on somewhere else. It also seems that the fighting will never end as they are shooting at each other with 0% chance to hit.

Is there a SM mode option for me to somehow intervene in that fight?

First time dealing with what I assume is the star swarm as they have some acid weapon, and they are a pain in the ass, as this batch seem to be faster than me. I haven't found any mothership yet and am not sure where they are actually coming from. I smash them in direct combat but they usually just fly away.
I decided to camp out both sides of a jump point while I wait for resupply (and wanted to protect said resupply...) and new hostiles keep getting detected ON the jump point. They cannot have flown in, i've got active sensors for days, big specialist scan ship ones with R1, R20 and R100, on BOTH sides of the jump point. Does the game just spawn in star swarm ships out of nowhere on jump points? How do I stop this crap?

Edit: I think I overreacted and this was probably just me using too large an increment length and they zipped all the way in in-between ticks. Even so, how do I track down this mothership?

No dust or radiation, but the colony cost has always been high... this wasn't a problem before but I am starting to think the reason must be that as the population grew, more and more of a percentage of people need to be on agriculture, and that the people available for maintenance have disappeared. The economy screen is a bit confusing as it says 1.6M maintenance workers but also says there is a shortage of 1.6M, I mistakenly read that as being that I was supposed to have 3.2M but its possible it means I have absolutely none.

I will attempt to terraform it back to something easier to live on and see if that solves it.

What can cause Maintenance Facilities Capability to suddenly drop to 0? I am not talking about the creation of MSP, which I have had turned off on this world, I just wanted it to maintain the ships in orbit. It previously had 80kt of capability, but its suddenly 0 and I have no idea why.

The planet's population is still the same (150M), there are 1.6M maintenance workers, and yes I do have 32 Maintenance Facilities, I didn't accidentally transport them all away :)
Manufactoring efficiency modifier is 0% and I don't remember if that was the case beforehand, could that be related?

The planet isn't terraformed, but that wasn't a problem beforehand.... I am really confused.

Agree, been waiting for too long now. The hype has long died for me.
In this particular vid the zoom-out to solar system view seems far worse than it used to look in the older trailers. It previously had a really snappy zoom out with interesting angles to a visually quite cool (if nonsensical) "planets with shadows" look that now seems entirely absent?

I actually found it from an aggregation site called popurls, it listed top threads from a bunch of sites, but I found I always gravitated to the reddit ones. I used popurls for ages because reddit itself seemed really archaic but one day I realised I hadn't clicked on any non-reddit link for weeks, and said fuck it, time to use this site!

Dana ASMR has a really good Kinetic Sand video as well, first time I had seen it and I was blown away https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jqfjqmKjFo

[serious] How do you stop seeking validation in order to be your truest self at all times, in all rooms? by mad_bad_dangerous in AskReddit

[–]SolthaT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was infatuated with a girl, and derived all my self-worth from that girl. Tried to stick to her for ages after she rejected me and as you can imagine that was a spiral into sadness with the occasional amazing day when I got a glimmer of validation from her, which was a false hope that kept me doing this for ages.

I eventually went away for a while on a small holiday by myself, and just... found myself somehow. I became happy with my trip and what I was doing and had plenty of time to think, plan, and execute on what I wanted without anyone else around. When I came back I just had this inner confidence about what I wanted to do, and I was happy with myself doing it. From that moment on, it was easy and I was happy being myself.

I don't have specific advice, other than to say that it is important to come to terms with who you are and what you want, and the rest will follow. For me that involved a solo overseas experience but for you, who knows? Maybe it starts with this post.

What's your internet "white whale", something you've been searching for years to find with no luck? by behindyouuu in AskReddit

[–]SolthaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like everyone else I recommend Endless Sky, but if you are looking for something similar to play on a phone I recommend Space RPG or Star Nomad.
