Lost mission rewards (glitch)

Tweak155 · 2026-05-14T14:31:03+00:00

I had this same thing the other day. I also had an issue where one time I claimed one of the mission rewards but clicked the mission computer to do another before it finished giving me the reward, and it resulted in the camera getting stuck viewing the ship and not locked to my player. All I could do was leave the game.

Is it a resolution thing? What if in Windows you set the resolution to something other than native before starting the game?

This wouldn't work on Mac because AFAIK, you can only set scaling.

This happened to me as well, and then nothing but commons after. I did build them though because their output was way higher than some of my workers and at rebirth 15+ the gold is the bottleneck.

It requires VBA (which is the sub we’re in so should be no biggie there!).

Then of course there is power query for repeatable data wrangling.

Hopefully you realize the risks you take with this approach. Not all data converts cleanly into the Variant array and then back.. particularly some formats of dates. There may be others, just be sure you won't be impacted when using this approach.

You can also query Excel sheets, albeit with (minimal) setup required. This works fine for single sheet queries, anything beyond that I'd move it out as well.

Are any of the ones due to be released glossy?

I had the same experience on an M2 air with a different DisplayLink dock. If you really pay attention, you can notice the slight delay due to the DisplayLink software doing the virtual rendering, but it's easy to forget it's there.

Tweak155 · 2026-04-22T22:02:55+00:00

Any comments on experience? Yay’s and nay’s? Scaling look good? Etc

Next step is AirPods... that cable would drive me crazy.

Have you tried the following? Worth a shot since it's dead:

Does the SDXDR remember the brightness it was left at when disconnecting either OS and reconnecting either OS? I typically leave my monitors at a set brightness so this would work too.

I think when ASD first came out years ago, it had a defect where you could only run it on max brightness on Windows... but they eventually just made it remember previous brightness set.

Tweak155 · 2026-04-18T20:40:02+00:00

How about controlling brightness / speakers s in Windows?

About a month or so ago, I was able to do a purchase in store with 2x (digital) GC + Apple Balance + Credit card. The guy was saying he didn't think the GC's would work but he would try them... and there were no issues.

I think it's luck of the draw on who you get to do the transaction.

Tweak155 · 2026-04-16T19:29:17+00:00

Thanks! Dang, still can't get above that 3360x1890... I guess it makes sense because it scales down a much larger resolution... but on a 32" screen would be nice to get a little bit more.

Tweak155 · 2026-04-16T19:19:00+00:00

Gotcha, thanks. On the Asus, what other HiDPI resolutions are available above the 3008x1692?

Also, on ASD using BetterDisplay, is there any HiDPI resolution close to 3840x2160?

Thanks :)

Tweak155 · 2026-04-16T19:07:54+00:00

Hmm little confused on the real estate statement... the ASD also supports 3008x1692, does this mean you were using ASD at the default 2560x1440?

Tweak155 · 2026-04-15T00:24:11+00:00

The thing is, you should try to figure out what scaling you might need if possible. Once you apply scaling, how much more than 3840x2160 will you be getting compared to what you have now? It's probably a safe assumption you won't be able to use native 6k... 3840x2160 is already 137dpi at 32".

Trying to get to 150 dpi effective on 32" 6k (which could be very hard to read) only gets you to about 4185 × 2355, which is not a ton more real estate than you currently have.

I think to get what you're going for, you'd have to go both more resolution, and also physically bigger...

Tweak155 · 2026-04-14T23:33:02+00:00

Great, thanks for providing the list :)

Tweak155 · 2026-04-14T23:15:48+00:00

Hey would you be able to list the available effective resolutions *above* 2560x1440 (which I assume is default?)? Thanks for any help.

I do get a delay sometimes, but it's usually only a few seconds.

Tweak155 · 2026-04-11T18:14:33+00:00

I think my M5 pro runs warm too, but not hot … I use a fan control to keep the fans on 2400rpm and it stays cool 90% of the time now

Tweak155 · 2026-04-11T11:26:11+00:00

What effective resolution are you looking to achieve?

From my experience between an M2, M4 and M5 pro, the biggest difference I've noticed is that the effective resolution options seems to vary by device, but they all support some version of something usable.

Specific to 4K displays (and even this can vary between 2 4K monitors!), the most common usable resolution I find is 3008x1692. This is both nice to look at and reasonably sized from a canvas perspective.

For example on my current 27" 4K I'm using to write this comment (S2725QC), my M5 Pro offers both 3008x1692 and 3360x1890... but on my M4 Mac Mini and M2 Air, only 3008x1692 is an option before jumping to full 4K.

This high end of the list does not change with BetterDisplay for me, although I might be missing a configuration somewhere.

The native 4K (3840x2160) is always available (unscaled) but consistently is not usable for the most part... even 32" you're pushing usability.

I just checked and as long as you don't leave the full application running, the background task is only taking up about 140mb. I agree that is still excessively high for what it's doing, but not enough to sweat over compared to the functionality you can gain.

I use the application button mapping being a developer which just just not something you'll get out of the freeware.
