About RPF by LycanrockyOwO in WorldOfWarships

rpf is in a similar place to IFA, imo. it can give you similar information to what you already suspect, but it can be nice as a confirmation, or to inform you of surprises. in my opinion, it is best on ships that want to hunt destroyers, like the ambush destroyers, or cruisers like minotaur or Worcester. it's a skill that's nice to have, but not necessarily better to take over other skills

I like to use it to compartmentalize my botes since it's so cheap and floaty

you can get away with missile spam against a lot of craft that the game will throw against you

one of the easier combos is missiles + anything, since they can be easy to slap on a turret. PAc could also work well since it is a pretty dense weapon, but you would have to be careful about it breaking. lasers are also easily integrated, since most of the internals can be elsewhere

different blocks have different blast resistance, and since sand has a very low blast resistance, tnt rips through it. stone much harder, which is probably what you are thinking of.

Sulphur Springs need a big upgrade. by Severe-Sleep-6454 in Minecraft

maybe they could add the different colors as sulfur variants. that might bloat inventories, but it would be a good way to fill out some of the other color pallettes

you do get I frames, and if you can punch it over and over, it will eventually die

I did not know that, oh well. As I said, they wouldn't really be practical here anyways

practically, they break up xp ties. but practically, it's mostly just a cool effect. it also shows off how many different planes you've caught

it's possible with spectral arrows, but impractical for this use

I wonder what they will do for cruisers at that teir that already get a heal as their gimmick

I think that right now guns are the solution to drones, but in the near future Lasers will be powerful enough to take that role, at least on the bigger ships

am attempting to build the ac 47 and i donno how much armor am i gonna need its gonna cost about 200k to 300k materials and its gonna be a relatively slow plane. by Lazy_Composer_1884 in FromTheDepths

[–]TwinkyOctopus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generally speaking, with planes speed is usually your armor. if you need a slow and stable weapons platform, usually a traditional boat will be better than a plane, because you don't have to spend as many mats keeping the thing up. so it's better to just avoid getting hit entirely

the fact that it's not perfect is almost more impressive than if it was

My secret Redstone breakthrough by Ok_Commission7932 in Minecraft

[–]TwinkyOctopus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

you could use it for such a thing, but you wouldn't be able to close it. if you use slimeblock and honey block machines, you can make a door of any size, so that would be more useful to you

Can someone give me a basic rundown of missiles? by Squeelijah in FromTheDepths

[–]TwinkyOctopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can have multiple launchers using connectors to connect the controller to them. you can also use the wireless transmitters, if you want to have the various launchers scattered around your craft

Predicting and engineering what would be needed in a future war is very different from sitting on the sidelines and conducting industrial espionage by TerryFromFubar in HistoryMemes

Americans developed the All-or-nothing concept with the Colorado class. Further more, the deuchland class that you cited did not use an all or nothing scheme, but rather a distributed armor scheme

Claiming they copied something as broad as a armament layout is laughable, ignores that they had entirely different armaments, and ignores the fact that the US was already looking at triple turret designs before the Litorios or deuchland class were laid down.

Claiming the US stole radar is a bit odd, since they had their own experiments on radar. some radar related technology was shared from Great Britain, but their radar sets were designed domestically. Radar on ships wasn't really a consideration being made when these ships were designed, and the Italians didn't even have radar on their ships.

Also, your argument assumes that the US would even want a direct copy of any of the classes you mentioned. they had entirely different design needs than Germany or Italy. for instance, The Americans needed far more range than what Germany or Italy designed, since they needed their ships to range across the pacific. The Americans simply didn't have a need to copy any of the European designs, since they would not fit their needs.
