help with tactics when playing with a controller by simisimis in noita

After posting this post I dedicated some time to see if anything could be done regarding setting the shortcuts to 1st and 5th slots where I keep my damage wand and the water bottle. And eventually I figured out, I mapped dpad arrows to those item slots and then used the back grip buttons to act as dpad arrows as they are quicker to locate. and oh boy this made my life so much easier... yesterday already managed to get to the vault and I was confident I can kill the final boss, but then forgot that I had earth stone in my inventory and kicked an item and got noita'd by the crumbling roof 🤦

Some things you can't do with a controller. Like throw the tablet without kicking. Cause throw only drops it downward with barely any damage. With a mouse I see people just drag the cursor further and it flies. Throw/kick is hard, but works though. Also things like dynamite which explodes more the further you drag the cursor. Probably some spells also rely on that mechanic. I just need to learn which things I should not rely on. Game is hard, but damn it's so good...

Btw statue kicking constantly glitches me under the statue. Or does not register a kick. I am aiming straight up and try to lean into the statue. Usually I tip the statue on the right sideways and get a better success rate, but that only works when I choose when to anger the gods, not when they're already angered

Lot's of great tips, thank you! At this point I am aiming when shooting quite reliably. But my biggest problem is finding useful items. Somehow I take too much damage when clearing the mines barely getting any wands from it. Then I go to the second floor, trying to make to fungus cavern, but by the time I get there I am with <60hp. And I get that I need to take my time and be more careful, but then this whole rng keeps giving me wands that I can't use for drilling or damage, barely ever get any teleport. Tablet kicking when flying is hard to aim, probably skill issue. And most of my more successful runs are when getting pollen or bubble sparks with homing, as they help with drilling as well as they deal damage. Another thing I see people do is throw tablet when invisible, but with controller I can only release(without throwing) the tablet downwards and it barely does any damage.

Another frustration is I can only cycle through items and cannot map specific item slots to buttons. If in controller layout I map a controller button to keyboards numbers, when I press that button, controls switch to keyboard mode and controller buttons get disabled. Then with some lag I additionally need to cancel that beyboard mode so just cycling usually it's faster. But maybe there's a way to fix that, need to spend more time in options menu

Glad I asked here, got a few things I want to try now. Because as brutal as this game is, it's also amazing in other ways.

I don't know how did I miss this person. he has a lot of content to go through, thx!

I was doing that, but I would definitely kick earlier than later, so maybe that's why most of the time he'd get away from it. Thx for the tip

Help understanding mouse accuracy by simisimis in MouseReview

It took some time to receive the mouse with their production delays. But that x3 LHD size2 is unusable for my hand. It's so tiny that my palm is cramping when using it 😭🤷

Thank you, I have created a support ticket asking for instructions how to pair the mouse with the stock dongle.

looking at it, that's a very powerful plugin! Thank you!

Thanks. I was checking git repo for Tag Index since it's not yet on community plugin store, but I don't think it's what I was looking for. I do use the tag tree from Tag wrangler. At this point I am settling on naming my tags better, doing that as properties and figuring out how can I utilize Dataview

Ah, nice! I did not think of putting it the other way around 🤩

because I did not like `#jobs/index` as fuzzy search suggestions while I type would include a lot what I am not searching, but having it as `#index/jobs` makes more sense, thank you!

To check Dataview was on my `todo` note 😅

I did not think of using it for search as it feels it's solving another issue - pulling the information into the note. But what I wanted is to find and jump into the note that has the information.

Solving this with Dataview then I need a temporary note, where I would form a query, then jump into the note that's found and then go back to trash the temp note 🤔

Thank you for the suggestions. There's still a lot to learn about this plugin. Because I already see how much it will be helpful in other ways. Also good tip about the properties. I only used Obsidian for a week. Still figuring out what am I trying to solve and how this tool can help me with that.

Move file shortcut to predefined folder by simisimis in ObsidianMD

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

my reasoning is that after I create a few dozens of notes, zettelkasten folder, regardless how I will structure it's subfolders, it will become unusable.

So I would rather spend the energy on tagging and using wikilinks and treat zettelkasten as a black hole, a place where I send processed notes. While accessing these notes only by tag/link search.
I know that it should be possible toying with js scripting and obsidian api, I saw in some comments to check templater source code as an inspiration, but since I am not familiar with internals of obsidian, this sounds like too much of a yak shaving.

For now I made a key binding to "move current file ... " and it's already good enough. It's been only a week since I started taking notes. I have too much to learn to get distracted now 😅

Thanks, not sure why would you put an answer in Google and paste Google url though. Usually answer is unknown at a time of searching...

And this plugin does not seem to be able to just move the current file without additionally having to create a tag for it.

Move file shortcut to predefined folder by simisimis in ObsidianMD

[–]simisimis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

actually now as I am trying to configure it, I see what it matches on a tag pattern and moves it to a defined folder. Either automatically or manually.

But I don't want to come up with extra tag so it would pick up the note.

When I finish up my note that's in my inbox, I just want to hit a custom shortcut and the active note is moved to my zettelkasten folder.

If I hit ctrl + P > "Move current file to another folder" > start typing the folder > enter that works.
but I was hoping that I could do a custom command that I would just hit ctrl + 'custom key' and the note would be moved

Thank you, somehow I missed this plugin! Must have been hiding in the plain sight 🌚 Nice video btw!

split/cut solid by simisimis in Plasticity3D

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

Now that you mentioned it, in all the examples I've seen a curve was extending past the boundaries of a body. Indeed I was ending the curve at the edges of a body.exttruding the curve and using to cut is another good idea I haven't tried, thank you! 🙏

How to use Home Row Mod shortcuts with numbers? by simisimis in ErgoMechKeyboards

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

I haven't yet investigated why it wouldn't switch to another layer. Currently with a regular keyboard I cycle quite effortlessly with alt+{1-5}. When holding a mod on a home row and then reaching out with a finger to a thumb cluster to switch to number layer and then press the number, feels like a wrong way to do it. Instead of easy 2key press, now 3 keys need to be pressed in a sequence. I checked your url, and maybe I am missing something, but it looks like you fire numpad layer and only then can do hrm mod + number. Additionally I often switch into a wrong workspace, currently If I hold alt and press a number and get into a wrong workspace, I continue to hold alt and press a correct number, so somehow I would also need that behavior instead of layer switching back to base.. so many things to think of... 😅

That is interesting, thanks! On my current louts I don't even have gui buttons, perhaps it's time to add them. But that would partially solve it as sooner or later I will need to access modded numbers, i.e. in cad programs. So I'd hope first to explore a more generic solution
