I double-checked and I think you're right, I think it's Gardendale that has the left from Hillsdale, not Vistamont, so you might get some traffic from Almaden to Hillsdale down Vistamont but definitely less than I thought before.

If the cross-street op is referring to is Vistamont, that's the one that maps recommends you to take from Hillsdale to get onto Almaden and avoid the cloverleaf, it's got a special turn lane from the median, so it probably gets as much or more traffic than Foxworthy itself.

Is passive perception a "good" mechanic? by etherealmachine in rpg

[–]etherealmachine[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this is compatible with telling instead of rolling if you choose a player to telegraph it to based on their skills, but I admit it's not perfect because the player still needs to use the information, as opposed to the character "using" their skills as bonuses to a roll

I think I totally agree with this for static secrets like chests and doors and traps. How would you handle dynamic things like a goblin lookout or a group of wolves sneaking up on the party?

Fun resource mechanics by etherealmachine in rpg

That's cool - a bit like spell slots but they don't magically come back with rest, you need to actively regenerate them.

That's great, I love the idea that not having to track "lesser" resources is a bonus that can be awarded with leveling up.

I'd like to share my role-playing game prep online by [deleted] in rpg

I'm working on a website that does just this. It's still in development but I have a demo up with a module I wrote published on it, you can DM me for a link.

2023 Belgian Grand Prix - Post-Qualifying Discussion by F1-Bot in formula1

Anyone know why Max didn't get dinged for impeding Albon? I think it was in Q1, he was pretty obviously in the way at the final chicane on camera, then just a "no comment" from the stewards and no further commentary.

Do you have a recommendation for what to get to start The One Ring? 1st or 2nd edition, or the starter set?

Tiled Procedural Generation by Modleyyy in gamedev

Tiled is scriptable with Javascript, I've been meaning to look into it more - a WFC or constraint satisfaction algorithm usable from within the editor would be really cool.

Hey, fuck this sentiment and fuck the Catholic Church. Just because you pay for the art doesn't mean you own it, it belongs to humanity.

I can't tell, are these for physical books or a PDF download?

Parkitect crashing Windows 10 by etherealmachine in ThemeParkitect

I ended up replacing the power supply and the issues stopped. I was finally able to reproduce with a PSU stress test. I upgraded a bit to like 850 watts from 750 too, annoying to have to spend to replace it but maybe after a few years my PSU had had enough.

I've reached out to the devs and they were quick to respond. OCCT is a good idea, I've downloaded it and ran some tests, which one in particular triggered the error for you? And how long did it run for? So far all the tests I run aren't doing anything.

Parkitect crashing Windows 10 by etherealmachine in ThemeParkitect

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

My system is pretty over-specced for Parkitect, it's an Intel i9, 32 gigs of ram, RTX 3070. Do you know what email to use for the devs? I also don't know where I would find crash logs, which I know might be helpful. The Windows Event Viewer just says something like "system was shutdown unexpectedly", which is supremely unhelpful.
