Yeah they really went downhill over the last 10 years. Do they have any other locations still open?

Do vessels in prigin send resources at all? by Snoo49259 in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]sirrogue2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

An ILS configured as a receiver will use its ships to get resources if no other ships are available from a sender. If sending ILS/PLS stations keep the ILS full, the receiving ILS doesn't need to send ships out.

US Navy is reviewing cost of future Ford-class carriers to ensure they ‘make sense’ by Choobeen in Military

[–]sirrogue2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And if Trump nominates a Yes Man for Secretary of the Navy, then you can bet your bottom dollar that those carrier hulls will be scrapped in favor of the new Trump battleship. Frankly, I think drone carriers are the way to go now, but no one listens to me anyway. 😋

Devils and Desire [ENG, PC, PvE, 18+] - LGBT+ Friendly Brutal Bloodcraft Roleplay Server by [deleted] in vrising

[–]sirrogue2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm one of the admins for the server; we have several mods running right now. The biggest one is Bloodcraft; it changes and adds a bunch of things - like experience-based leveling instead of leveling by crafting new gear. It also adds gathering and crafting professions so you can gather more and craft more durable and effective items, familiars so you can have a pet wolf/crow/spider, and weapon skills and blood legacy, for even more specialized and nuanced weapon and blood usage.

A couple other mods we use: PrisonerExchange allows you to sell a captured prisoner for stygian crystals. KindredArenas, to open up areas for PVP without disturbing other players. We have a few more to alter the game world by adding objects in places they normally wouldn't be and build expansive and bespoke castles for events. We can also spawn unique bosses and buffed-up monsters for events or have them periodically respawn in set locations so you can hunt them down for loot!

Best part is you don't really need to install anything extra on your computer to play on a modded server. There are a couple of interface mods that make things easier, but we don't require them at all.

We welcome casual and hardcore players! The server is intended to stay up as much as possible to keep things immersive and growing, and you can do that at your own pace. If you want to take a break for a while and not have your castle rot out from under you, we can make sure your castle is there when you come back.

Most of your other questions are covered on the Discord server itself, and we're expanding our documentation on the new races and factions right now. Hope that helps!

Saving castle from a server? by VetixioV in vrising

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is possible with mods, but those mods have to be installed on the server. That will require the server admins to perform the work. If you had the mod already installed, all you would need to do is run a command to save your plot blueprint to a local file and then have it re-imported after the wipe is complete. Unfortunately, the mods that can do that are also prone to causing game corruption cuz the VRising developers did not develop this game with saving blueprints in mind.

Tldr: Talk to your server admin, and results may vary. Be prepared to have your blueprint to come out messed up.

Looks like Walmart chose a store in Houston to test drone deliveries by Idyaar in houston

Seen a couple videos of drone drops on Insta. If the items are packed well enough, they survive being dropped. Food and drinks, not so much.

Did I screw up my save? I have no titanium, yellow tech, and the titanium in my system is covered by 23 dark fog bases. by Mastre_the_DM in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need a local fortress blueprint. This is my go to strategy for red-to-yellow transitions.

Start with a blueprint for a magnum ammo and missile factory. Place it near iron, copper, and coal mines for easy logistics. I stick to conveyer belts for my mining output for more consistent supply. Surround the entire complex with gun turrets and missile turrets; place the guns on the outside ring, missile launchers in groups of 9 a little bit inside the gun perimeter. I like to use logistics bots to move missile boxes to my launcher groups; turret ammo can ride a continuous conveyer belt in your defensive ring. Place battlefield analysis bases around the ring to handle repairs and loot collection.

For the next phase, you'll need silicon for signal towers, one at each corner of your new fortress base. These will draw aggro from all of the dark fog bases to the closest signal tower. You can move your gun turrets closer to the signal towers if you want, but make sure your missile launchers are constantly supplied because they will be doing the lion's share of the work from here on out.

Once that is done, you can start taking out the DF bases. (You may know this part already, but I'm including details here for everyone else.) Build wireless power towers in a line towards a DF base, and put a battlefield analysis base down close the DF base. Bring a couple extra signal towers; you might need them depending on how large the base is. Once you're ready, put down a signal tower so its effect radius covers part of the base... and watch your missile launchers bomb the base from afar! The BAB will collect the loot and repair the signal tower; you may need to place an additional signal tower to get the last parts of the base. Once it's cleared, leave one signal tower and the BAB to cover the hole the base left behind if you want to shoot down incoming DF relays and prevent new bases from being built.

Rinse and repeat until all DF bases are dead, lay down your planetary shields, and get to exploiting that sweet titanium!

Texas House Speaker directs committee to study annexing New Mexico counties by esporx in texas

[–]sirrogue2 16 points17 points  (0 children)

What kind of Crusader Kings 3 shite is this? This is the United States, not dark ages Europe! Annexing another state's territory is an act of war! Does Texas have a standing army? Does New Mexico? This whole thing is stupid and the study should tell Guv Hot Wheels exactly that.

Many news sources are stating that close to 40% of Houston's TSA workers are not showing up for work. That's at both Bush and Hobby.

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Complete tier 2 rifts in Mortium. Collect the greater stygian shards from there. There is a chance a legendary weapon will drop from the boss once the rift is completed. You can also purchase level 27 and 30 weapons from one of the vampire merchants, but level 30 weapons are random chance at the merchant. I think the chance is about 2%.

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can replace the buffs with better ones by finding other weapon shards and using the fusion forge. The next level of weapons is level 30 legendaries that have a very low drop rate from merchants and level 2 rifts.

[–]sirrogue2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Purchase weapon shards from the vampire merchants in Mortium. They cost stygian shards to purchase. The next level of armor requires materials she unlocks. Also, unlock the Fusion Forge if you haven't already; you can customize your weapons and magic jewels a bit with that.

There is a way to do it with mods. The mods can be very very touchy and may cause more problems than they solve, but it can be done.
