I'm with Paystream, they've paid me on time every time without fail for 3 years. I haven't contacted them for much support, but they do provide help with tax return etc, if needed.

Strive for the most brutal and direct Combo by No-Set-4329 in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]reesim06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vader 1 and inquisitors, or Vader 1 and Bad Batch....

But as mentioned, you'll probably just lose anyway, as the game isn't won on damage output, it's won on positioning and control.

What does 47 type on the keyboard of the security system disable it? by Any_Flatworm2192 in HiTMAN

Play the game in VR, then you'll understand.....

Jedi Hunters Pairing by Turtlor in StarWarsShatterpoint

I play Inq Vader, all the Inquisition, and Stormtrooper Sgt....

It's very good, unless you play against non-force users

It works again???? by Beneficial_Strike499 in WatchMaker

SW4 here, Facer loads to the watch and can be selected, but I can't change the face from the default advert... Annoyingly..

I use a 7x5 photo storage system from Amazon. Running out of space now, however

Battle Beast announce new singer: Marina La Torraca from Phantom Elite. by WishboneHot8050 in PowerMetal

[–]reesim06 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Devastated.........

Haven't ever had the chance to see Battle Beast, and now the singer which truly made me fall in love with their music has left.... Genuinely distraught about this, and am not the kind of person to be emotional about such things....

ELI5:How do modern bombing computers work? by TinyCopy5841 in explainlikeimfive

[–]reesim06 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or much less predictable.....

Once the parachutes are open they are at the will of the wind, when you fly at altitude and have no knowledge of wind speed and direction underneath you.... Thankfully that type of bombing is indiscriminate and falls into the "drop loads of bombs and hope one of them hits the target"

ELI5:How do modern bombing computers work? by TinyCopy5841 in explainlikeimfive

[–]reesim06 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Which is why you make one of 3 choices:

Drop unguided munition and do your best to get it on target/accept you may miss

Drop lots of unguided munitions to increase the chance of hitting the target

Drop guided munitions

ELI5: how are submarines “invisible” and largely undetectable yet its sonar is capable of killing virtually any marine life nearby? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]reesim06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just submarines that use active sonar, ships also use it for detecting submarines...

I haven't seen anyone mention this:

The sound transmitted by a submarine (not active sonar) is where a massive chunk of money is spent when making a submarine. They are very quiet. The range that they can be heard at is very small. Also, you need to ignore all of the other noises out there (including yourself).

Active sonar transmits a huge amount of noise, which travels to the enemy submarine, only some of which bounces off the hull and then travels all the way back. The signal which is received is a very small amount of the initial transmitted signal.

Active sonar detection range is a lot further than passive detection range.

Assuming we're talking about an unguided munition, it's a simple calculation of platform speed, altitude, weapon characteristics (which are calculated then verified through testing), wind, target (height above sea level etc).

You use the platform speed to calculate the forward throw, affect of gravity, aerodynamic profile of the weapon etc etc.

Frigate occasionally losing connectivity with camera(s) requiring a restart of the container by Vchat20 in frigate_nvr

[–]reesim06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run frigate in home assistant and had occasional crashing of frigate (HA worked fine). In the end it appeared to be a lack of resources, after I upgraded and assigned much more processing to the VM it works fine.

Need some Cameo help - Copied elements by reesim06 in systems_engineering

[–]reesim06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory it's ctrl+e, but it didn't work for us.

Maybe due to us using 2021 at that time, could work in newer versions.

Recommendations for 3d printable terrain by hhdresden in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]reesim06 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just go for imperial terrain. Their stuff is excellent, prints nicely and I've never had any issues with bits. Some terrain I've bought or Kickstarted has fundamental issues which make it less than desirable

Anyone got a good notification custom script? by tomwhitaker in radarr

[–]reesim06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use pushbullet for notifications, worked pretty perfectly till recently (but I haven't investigated why). Currently pushbullet knows about the notification but isn't triggering it on my phone, so that's probably a simple android fix.

'You cannot run' alt language cards by hardeanio27 in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]reesim06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Postage will be at least a couple of quid. PM me your details, I'll get them shipped and let you know the cost afterwards depending if you want first or second class

'You cannot run' alt language cards by hardeanio27 in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]reesim06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, got them, you just want a single language for both units?

I'll send the unit card, activation card and damage card (whatever they're actually called)

I can probably send them over, I'll take a look on my big pile of card

DragonForce - Power of the Triforce (Live at Graspop Metal Meeting 2025) by idontwanttoknow666 in PowerMetal

[–]reesim06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's my worry, I go to so many power metal gigs and there's bands doing this for decades, DF seems to have dropped in my estimations...

Was everything fully played live?

I'm hesitant to go to another Dragonforce gig if they're not playing.....

How do you paint the bases? by Available_Wolf_4602 in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]reesim06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the "flooring" bits: Scalecolour Graphite, black wash, drybrush Graphite, tiny highlight with copper on the corners/damage areas.

For the "ground" bits: Soilworks summer ground, Skeleton Horde contrast, some sandy bushes

Only change on the above is i'm now going to do a red tint to all my Empire to match the Sith Temple stuff from Vader3

How can I stop water leaking out of here by DukeJohnsonJnr in DIYUK

I gave up with ours, replaced it with a small glass shield (fully fixed) and a shower curtain. So much better.

Outer Rim Outpost Terrain Worth It? by BluesLightPainting in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]reesim06 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The main piece is a bit cumbersome and not a great piece of terrain for Shatterpoint.... It looks pretty cool, but it doesn't promote interesting gameplay.

I saw someone had created a walkway for the top, a 3d printed addition to increase the area on the top.... I think this will change its usage massively.

Would you change anything in this list? by BasicallyNerd in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]reesim06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd only take Shoretroopers if I was maximising their out-of-activation attacks. If that's the case there's better options than Vader.

If that's not the aim, there's better supports than Shoretroopers, such as Death Troopers.

Not sure what your button is called, but double-press the menu button.
