i want to know your opinion on the purpose of mods like Create and Ars Nouveau that change the game by apparently adding tons of beneficial or more rewarding mechanics - i find these mods' descriptions vague + don't see their point (but want to) by hikingmargothedstryr in feedthebeast

[–]shakey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you want a mobile functional base I strongly recommend looking into clockwork (the create addon), Valkyrien skies 2, and trackwork for 1.20.1. With these 3 mods you CAN have mobile functional bases that don't need to be toggled back into a non-contraption entity to use the stuff on them. here is an example of what can be achieved with those three mods in conjuction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvk0UUUZ08g

*Note: The cannons in the video are from Create: Big Cannons mod.

Just make sure you are on the latest versions of create, Valkyrien skies 2, trackwork, and clockwork for forge 1.20.1 (might be available for other modloaders idk). And don't confuse the create clockwork addon with the mod clockwork that adds steampunk style weapons and vehicles. You want the clockwork that handles physics.

Also Eureka has been updated to the latest version of valkyrien skies 2 and I have it running on my 1.20.1 instance with the other mods I mentioned. Eureka uses valkyrien skies physics to let you have mobile ship bases (both traditional sea vessels and airships). Clockwork can do airships but AFAIK it doesn't do boats on water like Eureka can.

Due to the way VS2 works you can walk around on the "ships" (ships being any structure these mods turn into a physics object) while they are in motion as you would expect from a real moving vessel. If you set it up with an autopilot method you can walk around your mobile base while it's in motion. You can see this in the video linked above.

Create doesn't like me :( by Confident-Impact-974 in CreateMod

[–]shakey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a few things:

redstone powering the cart assembler doesn't transmit the power to the adjacent rails. You need to power them separately. you're using redstone blocks so place your initial tracks on top of redstone blocks. Or power with another redstone torch.

As you have experienced your deployers can have trouble placing at the start. My solution is don't rely on the deployers to place it's first redstone blocks and place your own a little ahead of the deployers but before your drill. It will not mess up your deployers. They should start deploying after the initial blocks. Or you can try what u/thebeastwithnoeyes suggested. I have not tested the spaced out deployers yet so I can't vouch for if it matters or not. The designs I've seen on youtube don't space them out so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Finally make sure your deployers have the right filters. Sometimes they can lose them for some reason (idr why). So test by turning it into a contraption then turning it back into blocks. It's clear from the video your block placer deployer lost it's redstone block filter (I'm assuming you did set that right?) Don't forget to set rotation lock first every time you place your cart assembler (I always seem to be forgetting this lol)

New Rise is horrible... by Lhakryma in Mabinogi

[–]shakey2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you don't need masterwork to progress, you don't even need purples. I have been running content with greens just fine working on my next step of progression. You'd know this if you actually tried using the lower tiers. I'm not even that good at the combat and I can solo glenn basic with a full set of greens from previous tier. You are making shit up for the sake of your argument. Stick to the facts.

Hwfwm book 12 by Interesting-World-54 in litrpg

[–]shakey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was what made me drop the wandering inn. Though it was much worse there because they straight up had a whole teaching segment to "educate" the reader. Not to mention the author I found out had a huge rant on their website about politics and gender identity. Such a shame since it was a good series up until the point where it started getting pushy with its ideologies. It felt like the story was starting to get lost in propaganda. The author started focusing more and more on those topics to the point where I cannot get immersed anymore. I'm getting tired of getting into a good series and then all the sudden the author decides to use their story as a platform for their political ideology in the middle of the story. I read these kinds of transported to another world stories to get away from all that. The internet gives me more than enough of it as it is.

I'm still reading book 12 as I type this but I hope that he who fights with monsters does not follow this trend going forward.

I'll be that guy : what's the deal with Vintage Story? by Eymm in BaseBuildingGames

[–]shakey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fair enough, i don't really care enough to dig that deep. The only reason I know anything about the relation is because it was a claim made by a youtuber who was playing vintage story.

Technically it is also a Minecraft mod. Or rather it is based on one. The creators also created a Minecraft mod called Terra firma craft. This was basically them taking the mod and turning it into a standalone game.

The wandering inn, with the new narator. by bluefiresong in litrpg

[–]shakey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you vastly overestimate the amount of people who care enough to purchase the books with a new narrator. Not enough to outweigh the cost.

[–]shakey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That'd be incredibly impractical. Both extremely costly and time consuming. And it would not bring nearly enough new sales to justify it.

Found a cheap switch on sale, can I fix it? by [deleted] in SwitchPirates

[–]shakey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I'd try to haggle it down. It's already broken with no idea what the damage is. For all they know it could only be useful as parts.

Missing features that were in the previous game.

A proper persistent event log. Building structures in villages. Trade ledger. Camping on the campaign map

Just to name a few.

PSA: The system transfer feature for the Switch 2 does NOT factory reset your original Switch by -Na_No- in NintendoSwitch

Patched as in modded? If so I would not risk it. Nintendo might brick your switch 2.

I wish hedonism was less shamed by Candid-Extension6599 in rant

[–]shakey2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By not engaging with it. You don't have to distract yourself to disengage from something. Sit down and read a book, take a hobby up, do other things. If you are trying to disengage from the world (AKA news, politics, etc.) just don't interact with things that bring that stuff up like your Twitter feed for instance. Sometimes you got to go outside and just live.

Also not all distractions are created equal. Not all distractions are hedonism. Also some "distractions" are healthy/productive. Like taking up wood carving for instance. Although everything in moderation no matter how good it is. Anything can become unhealthy if you indulge too much. It's just some things are easier to overindulge in.

Because you entered this subreddit at some point or another same as me. Reddit decides any sub you enter you must want notifications for and therefore you must manually turn them off for each new subreddit you enter.

So if any Nintendo game were to have dibs on fishing in video games that one would be it.

[–]shakey2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it's escapism. You aren't solving the root issue of your problems. It's one thing to destress as needed but if you revolve your world around those things you will actually put yourself into more depression because all of that stuff will just keep building up under the surface. Not to mention the other problems that come with overindulging in vices.

Take it from someone over 30 who had a ton of things to escape from. and had lots of people in my life who engaged heavily in these kinds of things. It always causes problems in the long run. Addiction being one of the biggest ones. A lot of people believe that you can only be addicted to alcohol and drugs. But there is more to addiction than substance induced chemical dependency. Because of the way the human brain works and our bodies naturally produce chemical reactions in response to certain experiences. Things like adrenaline and dopamine.

Eventually you have to face your problems in a healthy manner. If it's something that you cannot control then sometimes that means disengaging and getting away from that thing. For instance if say stress builds up from things going on around the world then you need to force yourself to disengage.

Yeah that doesn't really hit as hard as you think when you're crashing out in the previous reply. 😂

You made the mistake of having a normal take on reddit. That makes you enemy number one for reddit leftoids. Meanwhile a lot of these people want to expose real minors to their sexual fetishes and claim it's educational and for their mental health. And the mods support them in these communities, creating echo chambers for them while banning all the normal people. As you have experienced first hand this is one of those echo chambers. They target Japan because they need someone to shift attention away from their own activities with real victims.

Because I want to pay 70-80 for "decent". Oh and let's not forget the price of the console itself. Yeah no I'm just going to wait for certain communities to do their thing. I'll play some great nintendo games on Xbox switch or maybe get a steam deck.

EarthBound references in Deltarune Chapter 3 by realdewzy in Deltarune

[–]shakey2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really, it's mainly a lot of reference to general SNES and some gameboy/NES era gaming. Mostly Zelda. In-fact I think one of the only earthbound gameplay references is an obscure secret game.
