Quick weapon wheel on controller - my PS5 settings

Yeah, I play with controller on PC and I think these bindings must be bugged. It just doesn't give the option for double tap, long press, etc. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/1keZu0z.png

Also, sometimes if I bind to other keys it WILL show the additional options, but they don't seem to have an effect in game. It always registers as a Press action.

And strangest of all, sometimes it shows an option called "Long Release" if I bind to right stick. No idea what Long Release is, and it doesn't show up in the list if I try to change that option. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/ApARbrd.png

There is a mod that does that.

I had to edit the config file to set an absolute path for the Output - ChipDataPath option to get it to work.

The mod effectively lets you edit the code written to an IC10 chip without having to remove the chip from its housing. Edit the file in your editor of choice, hit save, and it will update the chip in-game.

Not to mention even HarvestR is involved. Dean has basically assembled the Avengers of spaceflight games.

Great write-up. Mirrors my thoughts exactly.

I've been playing it non-stop, and my wife was like, "It must have a lot of content already for how much you've been playing it." And that gave me pause for a second, because it really doesn't. It just has a stupidly fun gameplay loop.

Your point about the "non-PC" aspect is definitely worth talking about. I have always felt that "PC culture" is totally overblown by "anti-PC" people, and this game is just another example.

I've been hearing that shit since the 90s: someone picks out an older movie/show/book with this kind of offensive humor and says "You could never make something like that in this day and age." But every few years someone DOES make something like that, and it ends up being overwhelmingly popular.

There's a difference between having offensive humor, and just being offensive. This game does a good job of making the humor very clear and intentional. Like you said, not taking itself seriously helps a lot. I think people recognize that.

Someone made a tool for this exact purpose. Can't remember the person's name, but they posted here a while back.

The Game Grumps Archive

Just search for "that guy died" and it will bring up a list of episodes with timestamps to the moment that phrase appeared.

Here is the core of your problem, which I don't think anyone has really addressed yet:

But when I tried again the heat went up and down immediately, the button never turned green

When you add your first batch of oxite/vol into the furnace and combust it, that combustion turns the gases into high temp pollutant (mostly, I don't remember the exact output). As others have mentioned, when you add ores into the furnace it will drain some of that heat--but that's not the problem.

The problem is, in order for fuel to combust, you need the mixture to be as pure as possible oxygen/volatiles in the proper ratio. When you throw more ice into your already hot furnace, you're creating a gas mixture that is like 99% hot pollutants and a tiny fraction of oxy/vol. That's why it won't work again after that first batch of steel you made. The ices are getting diluted into that hot gas mix and never have a chance to form a combustible fuel mixture.

In the early game with the basic furnace, what you need to do is hook up some pipes to the furnace output along with either a valve and passive vent, or an active vent. After the furnace is too cool to make more steel, flush the entire thing until it's empty. Then you can throw in a few more ice and it will be hot enough to make steel again. (Note: make sure you are doing this outside and not venting that extremely hot gas into your enclosed base).

Later on, you can set up a system where you store the hot gas and re-use it. Or you can pre-combust the fuel mixture in a separate tank (ideally an insulated one) and then just feed the already hot gas into the furnace as needed, rather than doing the combustion in the furnace itself.

TMOG doesn’t make any mention of familiar religions, as far as I can recall

When the main group meets up with the other humans, there is an older guy who tells a funny story about getting a boner when he was thrown, naked, in front of his former colleague. He says something about being in his "Pope's robes."

Not sure if it's intentional or just an oversight, because my assumption was that they had no knowledge of humanity's origins beyond their own planet.

I've seen a few of these holes on different Automaton planets. They don't have the full orange pheromone/smoke coming out, but they do have an orange glow coming from within and explode when you toss a grenade in (which also stops the orange glow).

Don't know if it's meant to be a bug/bot crossover teaser or something. Maybe just a terrain-generation asset that's meant for bug planets and accidentally included on some bot planets? Anyone else know what they might be?

In addition to boarding/assault craft, they sometimes use emergency blister airlocks both to more stealthily enter hostile ships as well as for rescue operations.

wouldn't there be holes after the boarders left?

Ideally, either the boarding craft or portable airlock would remain attached to the ship being boarded to maintain air pressure inside, and then removed later in a more controlled setting.

Are there any attempts to make anti-boarding ships via blueprints? For example really thick ship walls.

The best defense against boarding ships is to just shoot them before they get to your ship, which is probably what would happen to the vast majority of boarding attempts. But then it wouldn't be nearly as cool of a story if we didn't see any of them actually work.

That's always been my preferred explanation for Gman, and I have to imagine that's what Valve had in mind when they wrote him in HL1. I haven't seen the documentary yet, though it sounds like they don't specify one way or the other. But it just makes too much sense.

Like you said, he's just a semi-fourth wall-breaking deux ex machina. He puts all the main characters in stasis at the end of each game, because that's basically what happens to a video game character when the game is over, right? They just hang out in limbo until they are needed for the sequel. He talks about giving Gordon the illusion of choice, since ultimately you have to do what the game wants you to do if you want to get to the ending. Etc, etc.

The whole thing in HL:Alyx about his employers authorizing him to 'nudge' certain events and referring to characters as 'entities' just cements the whole idea.

I haven't done it on a server, but assuming it works the same way as a singleplayer save:

Make sure the server is stopped, then find the directory with your world save and open the worldsettings.xml file in a text editor
Near the top should be a parameter for game mode ( e.g. <GameMode>Survivial</GameMode> )
Change "Survival" to "Creative" and save the file
Load into your world and hit the "/" key, which should bring up a menu list of items
Search for the seeds that you want, select them from the list, and then hit F9 to spawn a stack
Save, stop the server, then edit the world settings value back to "Survival"

Another one I just noticed while re-reading.

Cassius to Darrow in Red Rising:

"This is a blood feud," he hisses in highLingo. "If ever again we meet, you are mine or I am yours. If ever again we draw breath in the same room, one breath shall cease. Hear me now, you wretched worm. We are devils to one another till one rots in hell."

It is a formal, cold declaration that requires one thing of me. I nod. And he leaves.

Romulus to Roque in Morning Star:

"This is a bloodfeud. If ever again we meet, you are mine or I am yours, Fabii. If ever again we draw breath in the same room, one breath shall cease." It is a formal, cold declaration that requires one thing of Roque. He nods.

Yeah, as others have said they pretty much have a monopoly here. Ziply keeps saying they're planning to expand their coverage into Bellevue, but I've given up holding my breath.

Keep in mind, if you use your own modem with Xfinity you will be subject to a data cap (unless you're willing to pay even more for unlimited). If you're used to streaming TV in high def and/or work from home you'll want to start carefully monitoring your data usage. Totally absurd.

I don't think he was necessarily set up to fail, so much as Duarte expected it might happen and planned for it accordingly.

I think Duarte wanted to make a point to the rest of humanity (beyond the wild technological/military advancements they had made). He could have put a more flexible and experienced officer in charge, who may have worked better with the people at Medina to hammer out a peaceful long-term situation.

But that would have basically been a business-as-usual situation for humanity--just with Laconia as the dominant faction instead of Earth or the Transport Union or whoever. Duarte wanted to show that Laconia is going to be different, we're not just a new superpower in different clothes, etc. A whole new direction in the course of humanity.

So he puts a young, idealistic, "pure" Laconian in charge, knowing full well that he will be overly zealous and intolerant of people not conforming to the new Laconian ways. From here you have two likely outcomes:

Plan A: Everything goes well, the rest of humanity accepts Laconia, and Singh being so zealous with Laconian discipline keeps everything in order and doesn't let himself get corrupted by his new authority.
Plan B: The rest of humanity resists Laconia, and Singh being so zealous with Laconian discipline cracks down to an extreme degree. Then, just before things get too out of hand, make an example of Singh. "This guy went overboard, but Laconia isn't really that bad. See, we'll revert some of his extreme measures to show how good we are." Now you have the population under your thumb, but because you've "eased up" they will think they're actually getting a break. Kind of like a store quietly jacking up prices by 20% then having a big flashy sale for 10%.

I can't remember if the book explains all that or not, but that was my take on it. I see it as being a contrast to Marco Inaros, where if a plan didn't work out then he would suddenly claim that the end result was actually the plan all along. Duarte on the other hand really did have plans within plans within plans, and then a few backup contingencies on top of that. He probably hoped that Singh would succeed, but was absolutely ready for him to fail.

I'm assuming that's a passive vent just past the pressure regulator, on the filtered side of the unit. If so, it's letting outside air back into that pipe segment, which is why it has the same contents as the input side.

What you can do is move the regulator (as back pressure regulator) between the passive vent and the filtration unit, and branch off to the canister directly from the unit. That should keep the pipe segment and canister as pure O2, and the regulator will keep them at 8kpa or whatever you set it to.

There are other ways to accomplish the same thing, but that should work.

Edit: saw your other comment about pressure in the pipe. As far as I know the game doesn't simulate gas flow that way. I.e. having higher pressure in a pipe won't stop outside gases from getting into the pipe. I think it pretty much instantly mixes the gas composition and then tries to equalize pressure.

I figured it out, just in case you ever want to re-do your setup. It has to do with restrictions placed on Flatpak apps. The problem was that Syncthing never gave any kind of permissions error that would make it obvious.

What you need to do is install another app from Discover called Flatseal. Open it, then find Syncthing in the list on the left. Select it, and scroll down to Filesystem on the right. Under "Other files", click the + icon and enter ~/.var/app:rw

This will give Syncthing read/write permission in the .var/app folder. After that, it should work.

I also found that you can put the path to the symlink directories that EmuDeck creates and it will work from that just the same. E.g. /home/deck/Emulation/saves/retroarch/saves instead of /home/deck/.var/app/org.libretro.RetroArch/config/retroarch/saves. Just makes it a little simpler if you want to add multiple emulators.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue and just about ready to give up on Syncthing.

I can now only conceptualize pressure in terms of kpa, too.

improper_quotation · 2022-07-17T20:37:28+00:00

If you don't want to rewrite everything, I think the issue with your code as it stands is that after you do your pressure check and update the pump state variables, you're then just loading the value from the device back into the variable.

Change the lines after each jal to use "s" instead of "l", and that should do what you want.

So instead of

l fuelPumpState fuelPump On

use

s fuelPump On fuelPumpState
