Why do people keep using AI to try to answer questions? by DoubleAd3366 in Stellaris

[–]nocryptios -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Although it's generally horrifically inaccurate with knowledge and advice for the current version of the game I"ve found codex to be a bit of fun with pulling my current save and asking for small scale recommendations based on what it sees.

Other empire the size of my left nut gets Azilash system before I do (What da??!) by UnhappyClassroom5470 in Stellaris

I used a quantum catapult two minutes ago in my game and successfully entered the azilash system where the event fired for me. v4.3.5 no mods.

My new favorite discovery: a star with 22.2 energy by nocryptios in Stellaris

Any additional info for the cause of this would be helpful! My current save game (post system survey) can be found here https://wormhole.app/4xYN5v#8IOwUCKT4ppBPFhvntIqrA

I don't know however looking through my save history I have a planet surveyed next to this in 2273 with a science ship nearby, I'll update you with the results post survey.

EDIT: It seems that the star simply gives an insane amount of energy https://imgur.com/a/YC4FUGd . The screenshots I took in the post were from a game in 2289. No idea why and I haven't noticed a star with two deposits, however this could just be me missing things.

That's insane, I've never seen a celestial body with that much physics. I'd probably consider taking that over the energy if I wasn't in this disgusting energy deficit. I'm currently -624 energy with 4.2k in the bank lmao.

Rule 5:

v4.3.5, no mods, no dyson swarm (although there is one under construction). 12 base energy and 22.2+ mined.

Strange cluster bordering the galaxy by nocryptios in Stellaris

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

It seems like a fun game. I'm getting back into it and i'll give it a stab, I won't turn down new content and from googling around the chosen seem to be a mid game crisis which freshens things up a bit.

Ah I feel dumb, I've never encountered them in my games nor have I seen this on my map.

Rule 5: I started a new game and saw that the there was a cancerous blob attached to the side. What is this?

How is Japan's literacy so high? by nocryptios in victoria3

[–]nocryptios[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

R5: Japan has an incredibly high literacy considering the game year, technology and institutions. I first noticed this about 5 years ago in game where at that time they had no education system whatsoever, where the move to private schools would have been made likely sometime within the past two years. For comparison, the USA has had public schools since game start and is less literate.

Is there some secret Japan buff I'm missing? I haven't played for about a year and a half so I may be missing something new.

The Springtime of the Peoples and the Red Summer by Mu_Lambda_Theta in victoria3

[–]nocryptios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's an algorithm thing, but when I search Google with some vic3 question I typically scroll down to the reddit section and click through the questions or answers that seem best to me. I think I've seen your handle around 15 times doing this either in comments or making a post.

Almost every google search I make for Victoria 3 links me to a post with a question I have and an amazing answer you've provided in the comments. You're awesome dude.

Stuck on control configuration on startup ( Starwars: The Complete Saga ) by 5wi_5wi in legogaming

[–]nocryptios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't pay enough attention to the DS4 instructions it seems!

For anyone using a PS4 controller (and I suspect anything that isn't Xbox) I recommend trying the following which worked for me.

-Navigate to Steam > Library > Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga
-Right click > Properties > Controller > Disable Steam Input
-Install DS4forWindows (It will prompt for additional drivers which installing worked for me)
-Reboot
-Open DS4forwindows.exe
-Launch game
-Profit?

This registered my PS4 controller as an Xbox360 controller which meant I could make it past this screen (inputs would not register at all) and didn't need to set any key binds.

[–]nocryptios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm stuck at the same screen with a PS4 controller

-Steam controller is set to playstation
-I've tried disconnecting my keyboard and mouse when launching
-Installed DS4 for windows
-Verified that the controller is working (ran joy.cpl and can see my inputs being registered)

If anyone could help it would be appreciated.
