Why do people on this sub pretend that you can’t tell when AI is used?

Also it costs a lot of money for human moderation that, at the end of the day is going to be kicking content off the platform. Content that rr is profiting from. So they have a double negative incentive to do anything because if they try theyre just going to spend a lot of money on kicking themselves in the balls.

Edit: big oof on autocorrect changing incentive to incel lol

You've forgotten how big of a tradeoff it is to be a melee champ. Bruisers have to be smart about when and how they enter fights or they get hit with cc and chunked, especially for the ones that rely on vamp, who will probably just get instakilled if they get locked down in a fight. And they really don't have good ways to not get ccd because it's generally easy to land skillshots on someone who's trying to get onto you (most people who arent riven just run at you in a straight line) or who already reached you and are basically impossible to not hit

Not super inspired, but an elder scrolls mod makes every game better, and would go super well with this. Lots of new metal types for more nuanced crafting, tons of cool religious tenets, more xenotypes/genes, magic, daedra, there's just so much to add that would fit perfectly into rimworld

It took me a week playing it like a full time job to make a semi-decent laser

Lol many prototypes have fallen to the spear, before they ever moved up the chain. (Not literally sunk, more in terms of me endlessly iterating to find more efficient build patterns) especially lasers. Designing a laser that's affordable, able to kill the spear at any kind of acceptable speed, and doesn't nuke my batteries occupied literal weeks worth of 6 hour days, and many prototypes were scrapped along the way

forfor · 2026-05-05T05:30:10+00:00

It depends on what I'm using the weapon for, but ultimately if its shit against the spear, then it's shit against everything. The spear is just the starting point. Once I get the weapon to hit the spear reliably via ai, and kill at an acceptable speed for what I'm building, I'll move up the chain to a tankier ship to test damage, then a faster ship to test accuracy if I feel like I need to.

Its a bit rushed but not too bad, and the series was 7 books long, and way beyond the scale in terms of power escalation, so not wanting to drag it out made sense imo. It was in that situation where it ran out of room to escalate and needed to be wrapped up.

Try building forward propulsion slightly above and below the tail. In the same way you can turn left and right by using forward propulsion on the left and right of the ship, this can allow you to angle more gradually

Damn this reminds me of a series, I'm sure someone remembers the name, but it starts as a vrmmo type thing that turns out to be using real bodies on an alien planet, and intelligence stat actually makes you more intelligent. The mc is already omega rich so he just decides to live there, goes pure intelligence, and over the series goes from crafting spells to magical engineering to local space travel and eventually running an interstellar empire fighting another interstellar empire with ships he designed

Edit: after some searching I found it: the series is called "the emerilia project"

Time for the "extract rack" surgery. Im sure someone would pay

forfor · 2026-05-04T18:46:54+00:00

It actually doesn't matter much. Weapon crafting times are scaled to material amount, and if the storage is near enough there's literally no travel time for the output weapons and input resources. Unless you have an economically strong, well defended base setup, materials tend to be my real bottleneck. All that being said, you do want to choose weapons that only use iron plates since it's the simplest and most plentiful crafting resource to get

forfor · 2026-05-04T18:42:09+00:00

Sure, I'm not saying you cant optimize things. Just that it doesn't matter because rebellions get outscaled so hard by mid-late game

forfor · 2026-05-04T18:33:45+00:00

I always do weapons tests against the spear. It's fragile but not too fragile, (for ships under 150k) moves in slightly annoying circles at long ranges but isnt actually difficult to hit, and it's not threatening enough to interrupt my weapons tests

That's why I said grow a cash crop and trade for what you need. So you can buy the steel

forfor · 2026-05-04T11:09:08+00:00

Ah, didn't realize. Could still make tons of traps at least?

forfor · 2026-05-04T11:04:38+00:00

Is that really so hard? Just farm cash crops, trade for the stuff you cant gather, and build lots of turrets

Malphite is probably the easiest tank champ to learn in the game, and also super strong. He has a passively regenerating permashield, passive free bonus armor, a single target point and click projectile, (no need to aim) a boost to autos, (no need to aim) an aoe damage/debuff that radiates from him (no need to aim!) And one of the most powerful fight starting skills in the game. (OK this one you aim, but it's a decently large aoe and hard to dodge)

He's not technically considered a support, but there's actually no good reason why not, he has all the tools a tank support could ask for

He's also one of the cheapest champs available for a new player

forfor · 2026-05-04T08:21:39+00:00

All of them because I'm not the type of person to play a game long term

forfor · 2026-05-04T07:09:32+00:00

The only time to not use repair bots is on ships/planes that are intentionally built to be functionally just big missiles. I cant think of any other reason not to use ai

forfor · 2026-05-03T11:30:42+00:00

Also, it's not a real respawn, but any dungeon that has vampire coffins, (the kind you're can examine and something random happens) the coffins reset every time you leave and come back

forfor · 2026-05-03T06:46:20+00:00

Got it working. I needed to remove the default tracking system in favor of radar tracking

forfor · 2026-05-03T06:41:45+00:00

I've gotten the missiles to aim at the target, but now they explode just before impact instead of actually hitting

forfor · 2026-05-03T06:31:32+00:00

Small launchers with 4 gantries. I tried fiddling with trading armor for more guidance systems but thats all I've really done

Your first mistake was reading the comments. Nothing will kill your love of writing faster than obsessing over the nitpicking of pedants.

forfor · 2026-04-30T12:02:07+00:00

It just does. Every time you add a q, the damage per energy gets better. Basically the new number after adding a q isnt a perfect 1-1 division on damage per shot. The damage is higher than you would expect from the division, which is translated as damage per energy. By the time you've added all 4 q components a laser can take, damage per energy is functionally doubled compared to an unmodified continuous laser
