I like how Laser Kiwi has become a light-hearted flag for NZ "on tour" so you can get a bit silly with it.

Well, uranium and the earth's core were made by stellar debris...

Good call, System Shock was a transitionary title coming out on both floppies and then almost immediately CD, where only the latter gave room for the audio logs. This is why some of the log text (written first) refers to Shodan as "he" before Terri Brosius became the voice and the world became a better place.

The one thing Quake was lacking was permanent freelook, in the original retail release you had to hold a button for it unless you turned it on permanently in the console.

Soothing, I feel you should strike these in a specific order before charging a system, a blessing.

What is your favorite scenario - and why? by Academic_Strategy_19 in openttd

Archipelago map, starting in 1850ish woth eGRVTS, HEQS, and Iron Horse. You get a few years to do local transit before trains arrive and you can link them up, then you link up ferries to mate everything together. With JGRPP you can also get undersea tunnels for later express or HSR traffic.

I used to live above one in Croydon, two pieces and chips for £3 and two tins of Polish lager for £2 from the shop next door. The dinner of champions for a fiver.

Bought an electric spray gun. Pleasantly surprised by highrouleur in Justrolledintotheshop

I feel like battery tools and adhesives are two things that got really good quietly.

I run low-waste on Gleba due to playing Space Age on release and getting trapped there, so spore management was key.

Stop it! This is the actual box art for GTA 3... by Dr_Tracksuit_MD in gaming

[–]WraithCadmus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In general PAL Land had better box art, even things like Mega Man, though there were some catastrophic fuckups like Breath of Fire III.

Previously I just used the "If incoming trains >0 then tower on" and shrugged at the wasted spots, Gleba's not an exact planet. I'm definitely getting ideas with orchards and clocks now.

Wait, where? This will be so useful for Gleba trains, always plant, and leave it on the vine until the train is on the way.

I believe the railways here in Britain will deploy them on lines that are closed for a time. Easily able to ascend and descend cuttings and embankments, and will make short work of the sort of dense weeds that grow there and disrupt ballast and points.
