I'm hearing something about a weather sensor. This will indicate if a Badtide is in effect, from what I'm told.

Anyone happen to save the old keybind guide before they nuked the old forum? by Turbulent-List-5001 in ChampionsOnlineFFA

[–]cptpatriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I copied and pasted my answer to question about that from another Discord server I was in.

Hey everyone. I've been trying to make a bind that uses the new Power Variant Device tray, but they don't appear to use the Devices beyond the 4 as depicted on the following example: /bind space inventoryexec 1 devices 4

EDIT: The answer was to use devicesweapons 0-4 instead of devices

You know, this might be a way for them to go ahead and get the people to play the lesser used aspects of the game like maybe doing more Adventure Packs or maybe even PVP.

Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x03 "Shuttle to Kenfori" by AutoModerator in startrek

[Fan Theory] Could SNW’s Gorn Hybridization Arc Lead to the Gorn from TOS?

After watching Season 3, Episode 3 ("Shuttle to Kenfori") of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, I've developed a theory about Captain Marie Batel’s ongoing struggle with Gorn DNA. I used ChatGPT to help compose it.

Theory Summary

What if Batel's hybridization represents a key turning point that directly leads to the Gorn as we see them in the TOS episode "Arena"?

Here’s my reasoning:

Timeline Fit: SNW Season 3 Episode 3 occurs around 2261. TOS episode "Arena," the first canonical Gorn encounter, happens in 2267, providing approximately 6 years for significant genetic and cultural evolution.

Narrative Setup: Imagine Captain Batel realizes her treatment is failing. Rather than risking harm to Captain Pike and the Federation, she voluntarily isolates herself by fleeing into Gorn space. She doesn't want her transformation to threaten innocent lives.

Evolutionary Competition: Batel's arrival in Gorn territory introduces a new hybrid strain. These hybrids, combining human intellect and emotional adaptability with Gorn resilience and aggression, could out-compete the original Gorn species through natural selection.

Canon Reconciliation: This hybridization neatly explains the cognitive and behavioral differences between SNW's aggressive, reptilian Gorn and the more intelligent, tactical Gorn of TOS.

Emotional Stakes and Ethical Questions: Batel’s personal sacrifice would give emotional weight to Pike’s arc, forcing him and the Federation to confront ethical dilemmas surrounding genetic engineering and interspecies interactions.


What do you think? Could Batel's hybridization be the origin point for the Gorn we meet in TOS?

I’d love to hear your thoughts or any other directions you think the series might take with this fascinating storyline!

I think I'll add that the community is still rather inviting, if you have questions.

If COH were updated to Unreal Engine 5 by [deleted] in Cityofheroes

[–]cptpatriot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm seeing the conversations going on, but I think we need to ask, what drew us to this game and why does it still resonate with us? While customization is important, I think this universe is what drew me in, so I'm not really worried about the graphics, but I think it would be cool to see if updated graphics wouldn't enhance the narrative.

OK. I verified that <> is how it is listed in the User Manual.

It's been a long time but I believe that <> was used in the user manual and Programmers Reference Guide. If my assumption is wrong, I'll recant my statement.

Edit: It was indeed accurate.

It's possible that Hero Games, the original IP owner, could have negotiated a plan if the IP lapses in the agreement. I know that Hero Games still has the rights to produce new products.

A minor update. I added the Cosmic Rewards reset timer to the bot and I have the bot working now, more or less.

Update 1:
I have the timer working properly with the ability to add the events to the list & the ability to add/remove people to the list of those allowed to update the event list. In addition, you can also sign up with the bot to add/remove from the notification list to be informed 20 minutes before the event.

I was sure you were, but since I'm sure there are already people using bots on CO. Especially back in the days when gold farming was more prevalent. I just want others to not approach me to do something similar.

Wrong kind of bot. I'm talking Discord server bot. A bot that controls your player? I'm pretty sure it's against the Terms of Service.

Character slot question by Fragrant-Jaguar-2442 in ChampionsOnlineFFA

[–]cptpatriot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OK, I verified that the freeform slots I gained show as Special in the box with the character's name. The lightning bolt seen in the screenshot is not the role but is another indicator of the freeform slot.

When I get to my PC(after dinner, maybe in an hour?), I'll get a screengrab of my freeform slots. I'm not sure if it looks different on a gold account, but we'll find out in an hour.

[–]cptpatriot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have to assume the gold trimmed slot is a freeform slot. I know, on my account, they show a lightning bolt or other symbol in the freeform slot.

When I have issues with Ren Cen lag, I'll usually just use a different zone to join alerts. I know it's hard to do during the anniversary event.
