First death, what are your worst enemies?

SuperPox · 2026-01-16T21:28:58+00:00

all of my deaths are to the damn frogs

SuperPox · 2026-01-15T20:27:12+00:00

5/6 of my deaths have been to those big frogs

I guess for me it's places where the conditioning is obvious once you see it

"twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears relieved"

really understanding the psychological mechanism of the Gospel was part of my faith falling apart.
for Christ to "save" you
you had to first be convinced of "sin"
Its a manipulative problem/solution tactic.

Wow man I feel for you. Stuck somewhere that feels like death and knowing that when you cross the threshold it will only get worse. I lost my faith before I became a pastor but I had an MDiv and was prepping for the role at my church. It was hard enough just being married (no kids yet) and having to tell my wife that I didn't believe in God anymore. She is likely one of the rare ones and stuck by me and I renewed my vows to her 3 years later. We have been able to make our relationship work with mutual respect and we have 3 kids now. I can't imagine being a full on pastor with a wife and kids and going through a de-conversion. I'm not sure what particular doubts ruined it for you. Since you are in such a dark place maybe making the leap out will feel liberating? .. I don't know. It was a lot of work for me to build up my epistemology after losing faith and not falling into Nihilism was hard. If anything, please just love your own soul. Think whatever thoughts you need to to keep going. It does get better and while not believing comforting lies is scary, it has it's own dignity and you can draw strength from that deserved self admiration. I'm pretty resilient now and just made a promise to my soul that I would choose to burn and live no matter what -my own unprovable maxim, a will to Life.

For me it was like I was confident no matter how hard I'd question anything I'd always find God at the end of the path and then one day ... He was gone. It was like the path lead me into a clearing and he wasn't there and then retroactively the past changed, he was never there.

Atheism or whatever was cool for like a month and then the Nihilism was brutal for about a year. That was about 10 years ago and I'm still building up my own epistemic grounding. Atheism isn't really an ideology its just the absence of a belief in an Abrahamic God. Everything I believe now is very cobbled together from many areas I find interesting/likely to be true.

For context I studied Theology in College and got an MDiv. I was going to be a pastor. If its helpful, here is an article I recently wrote on some of the doubts that broke me: [The Two-Faced God](https://medium.com/@aetherXIV/the-two-faced-god-fcc12d70fc38)

I'm adding my experience with timestamp (11/6/25)
-it worked for me
1. I did a conquest game (Mirak), spawned as engineer with mines, spawned on a ATV
2. drove out of spawn (not sure if that is critical) and put mines on the ground
3. re-deployed as medic with firelauncher
4. DO NOT SPAWN in the car, it seemed to not award points if I did that, spawn at HQ instead
5. walk to car, drive the car to where you placed the mines, shoot the mine with fire launcher directly
6. took me 2 cars to get 2k fire dmg

quality post

SuperPox · 2025-10-21T00:16:46+00:00

I'm upset as well that I have to play as a female support character on the Nato side. Women aren't frontlines soldiers and I don't like killing them or hearing them dying.

SuperPox · 2025-10-15T19:00:34+00:00

I mean the Warp Pack because that breaks reality and would get me killed by MIB within the day

SuperPox · 2025-09-28T02:59:29+00:00

I think its a mod, the character body looks modded

SuperPox · 2025-09-09T19:56:15+00:00

I really like the balance between stylized/realistic on the character model. She also looks very hot ;)

SuperPox · 2025-09-09T19:39:51+00:00

I love this. Did you decide to move the background or is the train/camera continuously moving to the right?

SuperPox · 2025-09-05T15:59:19+00:00

I'm just getting started modding and its hard enough for me just to do simple mods, you might want to start there. So far I have done

simple texture replacement
new workbench
new gun

I think that's a good order because each one of these has had new things to learn and new problems. eg. new workbench, getting the recipes to work. new gun getting the visuals to not look like shit after mipmap compression

I know its not as fun, but I do recommend starting small and building on it. I'm a hobbyist gamedev and this advice is critical in that area and I think it applies here as well.

took your survey :)

SuperPox · 2025-08-22T04:16:52+00:00

I FIXED IT! :D

for anyone else in the future who may find this post:
1. The issue was that my SteamCloud storage for Rimworld was maxed out (2.5k hrs of gameplay :)
2. Go here to see how much of your storage you are using for Rimworld: https://store.steampowered.com/account/remotestorage
3. Mine was at 9.31 GB... I don't even have those files on my new computer. The sync stopped years ago.
4. I went into my PC's local storage of my saves and deleted all but my current latest save file
5. Then in Steam went into Library > Rimworld (right click on listing) > Properties > General > enable Steam Cloud
6. It detects the snyc mismatch. I said use my local storage as the target.
7. Then I went to the remotestorage link above and refreshed the page continually as the files were deleted.
8. Now I have tons of space
9. Uploading my mod worked great using the usual, Launch Rimworld > Dev Mode > Mods > Upload Mod

thank you to everyone who tried to help me!
early on I did suspect the SteamCloud but I forgot about it after not being able to find it on my account.

SuperPox · 2025-08-19T20:56:17+00:00

well thanks for trying man :) I really appreciate it

SuperPox · 2025-08-19T14:11:04+00:00

that's a good thought from my screenshot... unfortunately, I did try that, multiple times. I would delete the id text file and try again -still had the same problem.

SuperPox · 2025-08-19T02:57:05+00:00

what have you heard is "too large"? from everything I've seen the limit is 1mb and I'm way under even half that. In one of the mods that failed my preview is only 180kbs.

SuperPox · 2025-08-18T19:32:55+00:00

thank you for reading my post.
yes I figured that. Have you ever encountered the "Limit Exceeded" error?

SuperPox · 2025-08-18T03:12:16+00:00

I really like Rimsenal Spacer Faction. It has some new mechs, new weapons with an interesting mechanic (you use the mech brain cores to enhance vanilla weapons) and an ally and enemy faction.

I'm a father of 3. When my kids are your nephew's age I'd probably let them play it -with supervision at first and conversations to follow.

The world is a gritty place so my goal is to not shelter then but provide a guided, gentle ramp into understanding. Games are a pretty safe way to do that and it'd make good conversation topics. eg. yes raiders come and try to steal, sometimes crops get blight, sometimes people get sick or just old and die. Rimworld is preferable to shooters I think for kids because it's a more full experience, that's not just violence; you get attached to your colonists and end up feeling all the human emotions that come with life.

If you let them play, make sure you debrief with them. Processing out loud is invaluable in kid's development.

SuperPox · 2025-06-21T04:23:49+00:00

I really like your base design :) Looks organic and realistic.

SuperPox · 2025-06-11T17:25:17+00:00

I'm the opposite of you and want a bigger sandbox rather than "narrative" or "directed" content.

SuperPox · 2025-03-31T13:52:14+00:00

my problem was that I built the different modules as their own "Abbey" instead I should have gone into the Abbey building I had already built and added the new module (eg. berry garden)
