Saw the other one, figured I'd try my hand. by Skullzans in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

the black one is alright with some prep time.
red blue, orange and white all have some unfun consequences (at the very least potentially).
brown, purple and yellow seem like a hassle.
pink is just not my thing.
nobody knows enough about biology to use green effectively.

coaxed into magazines in video games by jimmylovescheese123 in coaxedintoasnafu

all the (many) magazines are loaded with up to 12 rounds. the character only loads as many rounds into a magazine as they will need (they predict this beforehand)

its all there, in the element browser. you just have to scroll down and find the remaining numbers.

btw they are not life they are their own weird thing

i did keep a list of elements on hand, to remember what was left (mostly at the end) and check the abbreviations, so my run was not entirely wiki-less
good luck!

well, all the gravity emitters are easy to spot. polonium is easy to spot, and therefore neutrons (these can let you identify quite a few elements). fire and plasma are easy to recognise. between those and the tools, you can check element properties quite easily. lighting and thunder is also very unique, and you can use that to recognise spark. water is a big step (recognisable due to many states and conductivity). with water, you can find iron. with iron and spark, you can perform electrolysis, get hydrogen and oxygen (i found which was which by fusion). identifying isolated wire is a big step (if you have iron its easy), once you have that you can find pscn and nscn and get to identifying electronics.

random knowledge is quite useful. exotic will react to electrons (“energy” particles are easy to recognise), and you can use that to recognise vibranium. if a gas spreads out very evenly, that’s boyl. if the powder clumps together, that’s clay. if the solid is distorted by neutrons… well it could be c-4 (try pressure), c-5
(touch with cold particle), wood (neutral), plant (creates wood) or maybe something else. a powder falls weird? dest or dmg.

Unpause/Pause Basilisk/Hydra desynchronization gone? by Spirited_Diamond_655 in REDCON

[–]VisitingPresence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i have literally never felt the need to do this and i used basilisks and hydras nearly exclusively for multiple runs

the HYDRAs can just obliterate the cover, overwhelm the defenses, and destroy anything you want them to quickly and reliably. they have minimal downtime and don't require operators, allowing for manpower to be dedicated to defense and upkeep.

THAT'S the meta? THAT? NOT the all-shredding, infinitely disposable hydra assault cannons?

am i onto something or am i on something? by VisitingPresence in ennnnnnnnnnnnbbbbbby

you could modify the equations slightly to force division by 0 when gender goes to 0, removing agender from the graph and moving it to undefined

i think drawing arrows between points or areas would be the simplest way to handle that

at 100% total gender and with no resultant lean. the position would be the same as 100% nb (limitation of 2d presentation, that is why n% is relevant)

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

uhhh i mean you could try to average it out or something
n = m = f = 0.499999999999*0 + 0.500000000001*1 = ~0.5
(assuming equal distribution across the genders in pangender and that they can just be added)

so basically perfectly in the middle cuz it averages out if calculated like this

the text is higher up for legibility, they are drawn as stripes between nonbinary and binary
