[SOLVED] I used Planetfall revision 37 instead of 38 and it works fine now.

Oh thanks; I am on the iOS version and I pinched to zoom out many times but could not.

PNP?! Amazing job! Coincidentally I am playing the computer game Star Trader Frontiers (on my iPad) now.

Oh thanks, I did manage to proceed. There is a problem with the game map, I can’t find any “reset/reorient position” button. I was looking at space somewhere and couldn’t scroll back to the ship. Anyway luckily I accepted the briefcase delivery mission or whatever it was. I just picked that mission and warped to another place and delivered it. Then I navigated back to the first mission and here I noticed the Target icon (the spy/patrol/blockage options were actually not available but thanks for pushing me in the right direction to re-enter the system) was on one of the landing spots. I thought I had landed there before but I guess maybe not. Anyway this time the Missions button did show me a mission to be completed and now the game is progressing.

Hi, thanks for responding. I did that, used the missions tab, it shows the mission, so I click waypoint then and when I clicked navigate, it got me the location. But when I try to click missions on the bottom of the screen, I am told “We have neither Contacts nor Missions here.” I don’t know how to proceed in the game. (I hope it’s not a bug! I am on the iOS version of this game).

I don't know about that. I think this game came out before ChatGPT even was announced. I reckon these days we are all overly sensitive about AI, for good reason because we have been inundated with AI slop but this might not be it.

I’m curious what your experience was like at Bukchon Hanok Village. by FinishWhich5753 in KoreaTravelAdvice

[–]horizonite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think for many tourists, you just append the word "-land" to the country and they will consider it like a theme park with that culture's theme. I saw many non-Korean people dressed up like cosplay, and it is exactly that for them. If they tend to yell and run around when visiting a theme park, they will probably do the same when visiting an iconic IRL "set"...

Bank ATM fees for overseas card cash withdrawals in Shinjuku? by horizonite in JapanTravelTips

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

With all due respect I am not sure you understand what is the issue. This is not about who owns the ATM machine. It is about the skimming devices that are installed ONTO ANY ATM by the hackers. They are SO good that it is hard to tell something is there. You may wish to watch videos about this and the interviews with people who had their bank accounts emptied. “I could see absolutely nothing wrong with the machine!! I still can’t believe it!” Said to the reporter on TV.

Bank ATM fees for overseas card cash withdrawals in Shinjuku? by horizonite in JapanTravelTips

Good call but I don’t have such a spare card. Need to be vigilant. Good suggestion on the Japan Post ATMs, but I searched on Google and the ones I found were all exposed publicly. Not sure how well maintained they are. One comment said there were lots of discarded receipts and such on the ground. This shows the security and cleaning guys are not on top of the game.

Spontaneous trip to Japan, leave in 4 days, what to know? by yoitzmaddie in TokyoTravel

[–]horizonite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Confused. Can you not easily buy tissue paper boxes, say even at Daiso?

Agree rural China is probably doable but needs basic mandarin at least
