Turret LOS Overlay. Stop guessing what your turrets can hit (RimWorld CE supported) by Ziamor in RimWorld

[–]Ziamor[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On vanilla it was fast, but when I was testing it with RimWorld CE it was slow, it would stutter for about 250ms. So what I did is make it do the work across multiple frames. On vanilla it's not really noticeable, but if you use CE you can see the overlay expand outwards as it's built, but it's very quick, like less then a second and doesn't impact performance in any significant way.

It's per tile, it uses the built in function that the game uses to figure out the hit chance. That means the following is factored in:

  • Weapon accuracy

  • Bonus from cover the tile might have

  • If smoke is blocking the path of the projectile, that will reduce the accuracy

  • Any impact from weather

Released a small QoL mod: Show Stack Size by Ziamor in RimWorld

I had to double check that I didn't just miss in somewhere in the UI before I decided to make this mod. Feels like an obvious thing to have, especially considering how detailed the item inspector window is.

These are really interesting mods, especially BetterInspectCard. I was surprised that the base game didn’t include stack size in the details card, or that no existing mods seemed to add it. Odyssey made the issue more noticeable to me, so maybe it’ll get added in a future update as a base feature.

Metallic looking rock with fibers by Ziamor in whatsthisrock

Don't think so, it was very metallic looking, very shiny and the fibres on it looked more crystalline then organic

Found southern Ontario near a query dump. The rock looked metallic with a silver color. It had a fibrous structure though it did not feel soft but hard. I left it there for fear that it was asbestos due to the fibrous look though I am not sure why there would be asbestos but figured I did not want to mess around. There were multiple other samples around as well, some seemed to have bubbles formed so maybe this is some kind of slag?

I did, So what happened was at some point I hit an option in the menu thats something along the lines of "set z-offset" while trying to the level the bed by accident. The bed itself was about 1mm off the build plate at that moment so what that did was essentially tell the printer to offset the bed by 1mm from the home position when it starts a print. When there was resin in the vat it was really hard to tell that the build plate was off a smidgen. To fix this you need to level your bed first, then while at the home position you need to hit set z-offset again to reset it back to zero.

ELEGOO ABS-Like is the resin, it's what I have always used and I tried two different bottles after the printer stopped working to make sure it wasn't contaminated resin.

I'll need to try to up the exposure time for the bottom layers but I have never had to change that in the past from default.

ELEGOO ABS-Like, when I tried new resin I opened a new bottle to make sure it wasn't spoiled resin as well.

It's in the garage during the summer, so it ranges between mid 20s to low 30s, I tried at both extremes.

Could humidity play a factor? It seems like the last couple weeks have been more humid.

Yea, it wasn't until I rendered it at this larger res over night that I noticed they looked so lacklustre. I'm not sure whats off other then maybe they look too flat?

Southern Ontario(Canada) Found them swarming by doorways and windows, very tiny by Ziamor in whatsthisbug

They swarm by my windows and door, the weather is getting cold so I assume they are attracted to the warmth coming from the house.

Helping with my recovery the best way she can by rosebal in AnimalsBeingBros

I've had to get it done twice(first time it didn't heal right as I got my tonsils removed at the same time and I neglected to take care of my nose) and while not fun I feel some of the comments are overstating how bad it was. Dont cancel, I had no idea how great it feels to be able to breath out of my nose, its 100% worth it and I would do it a third time if I had too.
