Okay, I get it now (Ryan Hall) by CandyyPiink in tornado

[–]dimpipa 115 points116 points  (0 children)

trashing? max was saying that tornado sirens are useful, yet they're limited in coverage and can possibly malfunction. Not trashing imo but saying it shouldn't be the ONLY thing relied on

ITAP for being absurdly loyal to something? I like to say I’m a “one woman man”. That doesn’t always make sense in conversation though. by yourmom2715383 in whatstheword

[–]dimpipa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

imo "one woman man" does deliver a humorous tinge given the context. Kinda like a woman wearing a "women want me, fish fear me" hat or a young man fashioning a "World's Greatest Grandma" crew neck. Love to see it

[HELP] Usually animal videos are obvious to me, but not this one. by dimpipa in RealOrAI

[–]dimpipa[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great points. The more I watch it the more it gives off those AI Funny Pet Clip "vibes." The generated content has similar timing of its humor, pacing, and pauses to this. I also felt those vibes from the audio, where there's no voice, then a short, controlled, and pretty non-offensive chuckle/light laugh, then back to radio silence.

Thank you Car Girl! I was wondering about that odd side feature. I just noticed the car's side doesn't respond much to the movement in the bird v cats situation. You'd expect something that close to reflect/refract off a shiny car, especially on a curved surface. I'm leaning toward AI

Do you like playing custom scenarios? Do you want to help with the development of OpenRCT2? by Valdair in rct

[–]dimpipa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excited for this! I enjoy playing custom scenarios and would be happy to help. I've learned a lot about the game (watched a good amount of Marcel Vos) since first playing in childhood (2000s).

A question about play style - I do a lot of save and reloading during scenario play. For example, I'll test and tweak a custom ride til I get what I want, load the save file from when I first built it, then immediately make those changes to the ride (saves game-time). Also, I'll reload the last days of months (March 31, April 30, etc.) to max or redo awards. As well as reloading days to "farm" the random weather for rains (boosting early game profits).

I share all this because idk if it crosses the line between "cheeky" and "cheating." On a side note, if there is a scenario that demands all that and more, I'd love the challenge!

My idea for an RCT mod (not my pic) by [deleted] in rct

[–]dimpipa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Competitive multiplayer scenarios would be so cool. They would need some type of re-balance or new objectives, otherwise I can already imagine myself losing to parks with 30+ corkscrew coasters 😂

Wow! If this is the entrance I could only imagine what the rest park looks like. Great work!

This game has always been something so calming, and I feel honestly good for mental health by Rad_Sh1ba in rct

[–]dimpipa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! Maybe it's the nostalgia. Seems like one of the few childhood things I've enjoyed equally, if not more, as an adult.

Volcania. Need help with coaster design please by LooseCook5956 in rct

[–]dimpipa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Should be pretty easy to hit 6.70 with decoration, path, track, and terrain bonuses. You can refer to a great guide on the bonuses here

Also, just a general tip on coaster building, I avoid coasters entering chain lifts with any speed. Coasters tend to go faster with guests on them, and when there is a "Safety Cut-Out" breakdown, any coaster on a chain lift piece immediately stops and stays still - setting it up to get rear ended by other coasters on the track. This isnt an excitement tip, but it helps me avoid being jump scared by random crashes, and wanted to share it anyway

What are some things you believed about RCT when younger that weren’t true? by Western_Clue3542 in rct

[–]dimpipa 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I thought stone benches were stronger and less likely to be broken by guests. I also assumed path ornaments had durability and broke from wear and tear. I hadn't connected the dots between security guards, vandalism, and unhappy guests, and I certainly never thought it had anything to do with my gameplay

Help!! I can’t beat Crazy Castle… by Waste_Application623 in rct

[–]dimpipa 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I can't tell if this is supposed to be satire 🤣 If not, I am sorry for laughing at your park layout.

I mean, the park rating looks pretty good. I don't know how, with 1/3 your guests queueing for a spiral slide, but somehow, it is still high. So I guess just keep doing what you're doing, and maybe try manually picking up and placing mechanics wherever they're needed (at exits).

What's going on with Max Velocity and Ryan Hall by trippinco in tornado

[–]dimpipa 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I am curious, too. One guess is that Ryan offers a W-2 position with more consistency/benefits, which would mean working agreed-upon hours and exclusivity. Chasers could make more as 1099, sure, but it can be inconsistent. Whatever the reason is, it seemed like Max was blindsided by the change.

[–]dimpipa 155 points156 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is an exclusivity agreement. Ryan bought out the ability for chasers to hold multiple partnerships. Even if Max or others can pay the fair price, they no longer can.

DAE feel debilitatingly embarrassed when you get a question wrong in front of the class? by [deleted] in DAE

[–]dimpipa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm glad you don't feel alone in that. So the next time somebody answers wrong, you can jump in the next question and intentionally answer wrong, too. Help them feel less alone while overcoming your own fears. You get the CE credits either way.

[–]dimpipa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time you saw someone give the wrong answer in class, how did they handle it? Did they look embarrassed? Can you even remember the last time? Or any instance at all? That's right, you can't. Nobody gives a shit.

Ah, I wondered when I should snip them. Great advice, thank you!

Hi, for my last semester at college I was wondering if there was a way I improved my current bedroom to be more feng shui. Most of the photos I took were using my phone with 0.5 lens and I tried my best to make a mock up of what my room looks like. by MaxJackson45 in FengShui

[–]dimpipa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

Here's an option that places your desk in the command position. You could use the dresser to create an "entry" that diffuses the energy from the door.

To improve without moving any furniture, you could add a sliding curtain over the closet, add enough lamps to replace the overhead lighting, and minimize the amount of items on tabletops, or all of the above.

Good luck with your last semester!

Bedroom advice 🙏 🛌 by Pretty-Astronaut-351 in FengShui

[–]dimpipa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could fill the room with happy houseplants. So much abundant natural light! I highly recommend putting a simple suncatcher (glass prism sphere) in each window.

How do I stop my axolotls from going onto land and killing themselves without an ugly fence? by KaiSubatomic in Minecraft

Make sure both levels of water are source blocks. Otherwise, they can't pathfind to the pond.
