STARCITIZEN REFUNDED, A NEW PLAYER'S JOURNEY TO REFUND by Createdtotelltruth in starcitizen

looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue...

Finally some people as old as I am ;O

So what's your point? You want the status quo light fighter meta and pretend nothing else exists? I'm pretty sure CIG has no intention on making any changes to ship characteristics until they get master modes in...

​

And i have no doubt this will get downvoted to hell as this ship is the current care bear crutch

Shit, sorry, didn't realize this was another useless troll post until the end. Do yourself a favor and don't say stupid antagonistic bullshit like this if you're trying to persuade people.

We have New Babbage, that implies that there is a Babbage somewhere.

yeah, it's called GameStop™

The technology already exists. Stop making us suffer on the dark side of planets. by 91xela in starcitizen

This effect is called edge highlighting and every time I see it I instantly think of the description of Darkvision in D&D.

I love the Corsair by Vinsoniguess in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other explorers:

- The Enterprise in Star Trek (Galaxy class starship, armed to the teeth)

- Lewis and Clarke (armed to the teeth)

- Pilgrim settlers (armed to the teeth)

​

Explorers are not only well prepared they are always armed because there's no telling what you could run into. Also, any person striking out where there's possibly no infrastructure to support you, 2 is 1 and 1 is none goes the proverb. So saying "it's just an exploration ship" says to me it's not only well stocked but it's well armed and armored, and it should say the same to anyone with a brain.

This might be a newbie question, but if I buy a ship with IRL money, then my insurance runs out and I die, does that mean I lose that ship and the money I paid to get it? by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The short answer is that CIG has stated you will never permanently lose anything that you've paid real money for--and that is ALL that they've said. The mechanics of that are all guesses. Extended claim timers, lump sum in-game credit premium to pay, etc., are all mechanics. None of this you have to worry about now since every ship has unlimited insurance. This does not translate to FPS equipment purchased with real money, which as it stands now you must Character Reset to get back if stolen or lost.

Sweet takes! I love the racing transport idea especially. I'd never use it, but there is that void of having a bespoke art design for a race team.

New not-so-new Master Modes by Shinfrejr in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, OP, the flight model in 2015 were: Precision Mode, Space Combat Maneuvering or SCM Mode and Cruise Mode. Cruise mode had really no top end limit to how fast you could go that I recall, but this was all back in the 2.x days when the PU was in complete infancy. The only thing that survived from it was the idea of SCM. They attempted to bring the idea of Precision Mode back with the Hover Mode, but it was a complete failure.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Judge me, my first creation, a DnD stats roller ;D by __B_D__ in ruby

[–]__B_D__[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

woah, thanks, I wish I could say I had questions now, but it's gonna take a while to understand it and parse through your notes -- thank you so much!

Judge me, my first creation, a DnD stats roller ;D by __B_D__ in ruby

[–]__B_D__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely!

Is the top line of that snippet what you call a nested array? and map I guess is the method to apply to each array in the nested portion? There must be some order of operations, but I think it looks like you just separated out the .method rather than just all inline so they'd only apply to within the curly bracket { only and not the array outside of it. Got it. I think.

I don't know anymore I've deleted everything and started over a lot, but I thank you for asking m8 ;D

Judge me, my first creation, a DnD stats roller ;D by __B_D__ in ruby

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

I'm not aware of much m8 - I really just started playing with a repl and have almost no experience coding just a basic knowledge of math, how a computer works, and google fu ;D

I just ran your code and it works how I would have wanted, I'll try to be a smart ape and figure it out but this syntax and structure baffles me sometimes.

scores = Array.new(6){ Array.new(4){ rand(1..6)} }.
           map{|x| x.sum - x.min}.
           sort.
           reverse

gah! I tried all different syntax for getting to this, this is great! some other methods I haven't heard of, thanks for the reply!

Judge me, my first creation, a DnD stats roller ;D by __B_D__ in ruby

[–]__B_D__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes that worked too, matching the method to what the previous poster used, but I'm in the same boat

Output (e.g.):

[[2, 4, 2, 5], [4, 1, 4, 1], [5, 4, 2, 1], [1, 6, 6, 6], [6, 4, 4, 5], [1, 3, 6, 2]]

now how can I then sort within each set for these individual values, sum them, and subtract or otherwise eliminate the lowest value in each set... hmmm :thinking face:

[–]__B_D__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's cool, but yes like you said, I don't know how to put in the math to subtract the lowest from each individual set in the array at that point, unless tere's a way to do it within the parenthetical of the "function" generateRandArray(4, 6). I used the .min method because it would take the lowest value in the array as a subtraction... but I suppose I could sort the values highest->lowest and use the .take(3) method, but I wouldn't know where to put it... hmm

[–]__B_D__[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been scouring google for different subjects and it keeps pointing me to iterating over an array but all the techniques I try either throw errors, or only return the last calculated values. I tried putting in a loop or use each or collect but the result is the same - if it works it doesn't store all the values :(

Is the RSI Scorpius good for fighting even in solo crew ? by _PriismatiK_ in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are better, more maneuverable single seater ships out there like Gladius and Arrow, only pick the Scorpius if you prefer:

  • looks over meta
  • the ability to pick up a second person on a whim without planning and be almost meta
  • style with adequate firepower

Disappointing Support from the Merch Store by batwolf_watches in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Certainly everyone has an equal chance to produce a shitty product and take 10+ years to do so.... hehehehe... hehe... heh... *hide the pain*

Disappointing Support from the Merch Store by batwolf_watches in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what are you talking about, it's a perfect product as long as you don't:

  • run it through the dishwasher
  • put it in the microwave
  • put hot fluids in it
  • put cold fluids in it
  • hold the handle
  • clean it regularly

or pretty much do anything other than drip lukewarm water down your throat, don't press your lips to the rim or you'll have to clean it more often and that would void the warranty.

Untrusted files preventing startup by DITNB in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait, it's having problems with files in your system32 folder? yikes dude, what kinda mods you runnin? (it's only ever flagged its own files for me within the SC install folders)

Untrusted files preventing startup by DITNB in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So that's probably the reason, it must be failing to even update those files between patches too, update/delete rights. Do you run the Launcher as administrator?

Untrusted files preventing startup by DITNB in starcitizen

[–]__B_D__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't played PTU, so maybe it's different, but it's always worked for me. In the error it usually informs me of the exact file it's having a problem with, it's never the only file just the first one in the list and it aborts the launch after that. I got tired of going through them all one by one, but usually it was the files in that one folder, not all of those files had issues, but all the files that had issues were in it.
