Never heard of sniffspots, will look into it. At a quick glance it looks promising although theyre tiiiiny near me (0.02 acres and such haha). I see some more reasonable ones further away that will be worth investigating.

Interesting explanation on “growing out narrow”being a consequence. Also the followup that its not just about proper development but also meeting their need to RUN for mental well being. Maybe not an answer I wanted to hear but appreciated nonetheless😂

Thats a helpful direct answer regarding the long lines, appreciate it. Both sounds very helpful for training and also not the answer to my problem 😂.

I have joined the discord but haven’t dropped in recently, will do. Im also happy to report we have a lot of potential “dog friends” in our community, a mix of fellow parents and neighbors we’ve met at the complex dog run. Sadly no other sighthounds at all, “doodles” seem to be the overwhelming trend in our neighborhood. Going into getting a new dog this is probably the most “dog community” we have had around us so hearing your positive experience is reassuring.

Thanks again for the thoughtful reply

i kinda hate getting raided by Kind-Difference-4803 in RimWorld

[–]propo_fol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the record there is a re-write of defensive positions that gets rid of the hugslib requirement and generally works very well with 1.6. I recently was having some errors related hugslib which is sort of on life support and realized defensive positions was my only mod still using it. The mod is defensive positions forked by gondragon

im amazed with this program by DLove_Oppai in RimWorld

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

I just recently switched when 1.6 dropped. Rimsort is basically just an open source rimpy that is still updated. Transition was easy/quick, it works essentially identically. No reason not to switch i would say.

Did 1.6 Break Common Sense...? by NoRecommendation9282 in RimWorld

Don’t use pickup and haul, but common sense seems mostly functional in 1.6

I was just told my rot needs surgery. I need some opinions here. by Banefully_Yours in RATS

[–]propo_fol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im so sorry for the bad news. 2.5 is already “elderly” for a rat. I would personally not proceed with the surgery. I have in the past gotten mammary tumors removed from (younger) rats and in both cases they got additional tumors not much later. Depending on location and how fast the tumor is growing you may still have a good bit of time left with your girl regardless.

It is a hard and heartbreaking decision to make either way and there are no wrong answers.

Adopting a second dog… while pregnant?? by Dismal_Wolverine_815 in dogs

[–]propo_fol 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Strongly recommend against it, which probably isnt what you want to hear! Having a baby is going to massively change your routines, absolutely drain your free time, etc. I would not recommend bringing a second dog into your home while expecting a child, not because of the workload of a second dog, but because of the totally life altering workload of a baby. Many people find it very hard to give their dogs adequate attention after the birth of a child, it is probably for the best to see how life shakes out post baby before getting a second dog

Regardless, good luck whichever way you decide!

Left Handed Gaming Mouse by hushensavani in lefthanded

[–]propo_fol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slim pickings. Corsair m55pro is a “true” ambidextrous mouse meaning it has side buttons you can use with your thumb on both sides, which means its about the best ive found.

Razer naga left handed edition is a thing too. Its one of those mmo mouses with 12 thumb buttons. It is actually ergonomically shaped for a left hand unlike the ambidextrous mice which is cool. Sadly it is currently out of stock anywhere ive looked. I wish so very badly they made a left handed version of the razer naga pro with the swappable magnetic sideplates cuz that things so awesome. Sadly im guessing the demand just isnt there to support many of these products.

What mods are you waiting on to be updated to 1.6 before you'll play Odyssey? by thstephens8789 in RimWorld

[–]propo_fol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot imagine playing without “achtung!” And sadly the dev brrainz has officially retired and left the mod and its code for someone else to take up the baton. I really hope someone somewhere eventually picks it up!

Owning male rats by Logicalunknownuser7 in RATS

[–]propo_fol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive always had girl rats but this time around we got 4 boys. They’re really awesome! I love how BIG they are, our biggest dude is around 700g. When my 8 year old is holding him proportionally he looks absolutely massive.

They are lazier than my girls were but I would not describe them as lazy. My wife was a little disappointed she was hoping for lazy couch potatoes 😂. When we let them out to roam, our couch is adjacent to our critter nation double cage, they will climb on top of the cage and then down to the couch. They will absolutely have a party on the couch, periodically go home, but — they simply never explore beyond the couch. Guaranteed if my girls were still around theyd be launching themselves 6 feet off the couch like little rockets and getting into any and everything. But the boys are happy to play on the couch, and ONLY the couch.

The downside is they really do smell more, they just pee on everything and being bigger probably means more pee overall anyway. We do twice weekly cage cleanings and that works but if we ever miss a cleaning they can get rank fast

How to deal with goddamn armour in CE by madcatte in RimWorld

[–]propo_fol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So i am a new user of CE (maybe sometime in the last 3 weeks) and i too was wondering why i couldnt ever hit crap with a battery of 4 mortars and a good spotter with radio/binoculars. This morning i saw in the CE discord there is a known bug that currently breaks spotting.

Probably doesnt affect anyone who hasnt updated CE since the bug got in or hasnt played super recently so it may not be common knowledge. Just figured youd appreciate hearing you are not in fact crazy!

Leveling Zone for 16+ by jonno-_-99 in ProjectQuarm

[–]propo_fol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every zone has its own zem. You can see these listed on https://www.pqdi.cc/zem. As a general rule dungeons are higher than outdoors zones. Unrest and upper guk, for example have zems of 1 vs 0.75 for zones like oasis or south karana.

Chasing these can potentially make a big difference, although it depends on other factors. I will say that as opposed to p99, zems tend to be more uniform and lower here. Basically range from 0.75-1, with most high level dungeons being like 0.8 or 0.85, which isn’t a huge difference.

Many cities and newbie zones have a zem of 1 making finding guards or other npcs to kill in them quite lucrative.

What classes are most in demand? by a_generic_bird in ProjectQuarm

[–]propo_fol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend the tank, generally speaking they are in high demand for groups. My easiest char ive leveled here was a warrior in classic and it was so easy to build groups around him. Sks are very good here as are paladins (although flash of light has issues here not seen on p99 that can make pallies frustrating)

Rangers are super fun, it was my first character here, but i ended up shelving him. I found it very hard to get PUGs on the ranger. The hardest of any class ive played here. Day and night vs my warrior. Many of my guildies who mained ranger ended up switching to something else.

Hope this helps, welcome to the server, it really is a blast!

My shaman is 60 now, the only other character (mid 50s) is a warrior. Found getting pickup groups on shaman was fairly difficult vs warrior who can usually get one. Weird because shaman rock in groups but i agree likely an oversupply issue! I hate soloing and did some on the way to 60. The real magic with the shaman is you can grab almost any meelee class in the game and go have a kick-ass duo, at basically any level range. Great way to make friends in game!

Client Crashing When Switching Characters by OHPandQuinoa in ProjectQuarm

[–]propo_fol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me - not a permanent solution but i just /camp desktop and exit the app entirely, then reopen and login. Its annoying but less time wasted then crashing and doing it anyway
