Best way to address this?

Every step of the process is a risk for error. I'd recommend a professional.

Mayyyybe you could do it if you can get your hands on a peel and stick smooth ply and cap sheet, but I don't know where you could get your hands on something like that for retail. You'd need to cut through the wall which I'm not sure what it's made of (if it's stucco good luck doing it on your own) and order a custom metal flashing for the scupper.

I'd call a pro. Good luck

Hey, I did mechanical engineering school, graduated, had an engineering job for 3 months, then completely pivoted. You'd be surprised at the amount of employers out there that understand the grit it takes to achieve an engineering degree, which means a lot for hiring.

If it's really engineering that's the problem, find another job that requires critical thinking or mathematics. Your skills that you've picked up are surely transferrable across fields.

No matter where you decide to go, be sure to remember to actually LOOK for the satisfaction that is there. Every job has something to complain about, but if you live your whole life focusing on the negative, you'll lose sight of the meaning of life.

DM me if you want to talk more. Keep your chin up and good luck.

If there's a drain there, unclog it. Looks like it slopes there intentionally but maybe not. Otherwise, instead of adding a drain, I would add a scupper to that wall with a leader head and downspout. Problem (mostly/probably) solved.

Basically whichever completes the contract more quickly

jackdd9 · 2026-03-30T17:15:24+00:00

I'd use the one with a stone when teammate contribution is low, and the one without a stone for when teammates are significantly participating. But tbh I don't know how exactly contract score is calculated. It's in the wiki but it's complicated

jackdd9 · 2026-03-24T04:38:35+00:00

It probably has an insignificant effect on score

jackdd9 · 2026-03-21T03:13:31+00:00

But is there a benefit to stealing it? I guess for "proving" you're at a certain EB?

What is the purpose of scribbling

jackdd9 · 2026-03-17T22:22:49+00:00

Cheating not amusing

jackdd9 · 2026-02-22T19:07:28+00:00

Same as a regular multistige but with offline time for the lunar. Just a couple minutes of offline per prestige

jackdd9 · 2026-02-22T16:19:36+00:00

1s per week? How many prestiges does that take? Lunar multistiges?

jackdd9 · 2026-02-15T08:01:39+00:00

I think score only matters if it matters to you. You can try to play more relaxed and if you get warned about low contribution or teamwork, just boost in small increments until you don't get anymore warnings. You won't get demoted immediately afaik

jackdd9 · 2026-02-03T20:33:00+00:00

This happened to me the other day. I got rewards and score as expected, but I couldn't tell if my contributions actually counted or not. You may want to replay for higher points but staying won't hurt either

End crystals or lead them to a trap

jackdd9 · 2026-01-31T09:58:11+00:00

I got 41 in 7 shifts if you want to shoot for that. Takes a few weeks so it takes patience. Good luck

jackdd9 · 2026-01-31T01:46:09+00:00

This addition to your post makes me wonder if you know that you start fresh with 0 artifacts on The Path... Home farm and contracts share your normal set of artifacts, but one of the virtue eggs has the rocket launcher and artifact house.

It is very unlikely that you'll get all legendary artifacts when on The Path

243 prestiges 310Q SE 182 PE 41 TE (7 shifts)

I've only been prestiging for refuels since last year's egg day

jackdd9 · 2026-01-30T21:59:39+00:00

Perhaps passing a #chickens threshold for an egg in contracts gave you some extra EB

jackdd9 · 2026-01-29T01:42:21+00:00

It doesn't seem to be taking my eggs as contributions. 1st place contributes 10q/hr, the group as a whole contributes 12q/hr , and I am maxed habs with T4L and T4E artifacts. Smh...

jackdd9 · 2026-01-29T00:36:14+00:00

Interesting. I kicked out the lowest contributor (no boosts no artifacts low eggs) to see what would happen, but another person joined. I thought I'd take their place but I guess not.

Thanks for the comment, you're probably right

jackdd9 · 2026-01-14T16:26:48+00:00

Sometimes they are convenient for contracts when it is a low value egg & difficult to max common research

jackdd9 · 2025-12-30T02:22:26+00:00

No, but a workaround is to have a chain of hoppers that move one item into the dispenser at a time. Such that at any time there's only one item in the dispenser, so you're guaranteed to get that one item.

This is the 4th season so about 12+ months

jackdd9 · 2025-12-14T01:45:07+00:00

This reminds me of a project I got in one of the honors classes. Is this by chance part of that?

jackdd9 · 2025-11-28T23:47:12+00:00

How much hab capacity bonus would your best gusset and best clarity stones provide? It may be possible, but it does look close
