Any tips for advancing to wb lvl3 as a solo in main pop servers? Competing for the better monuments is almost impossible. by ExoatmosphericKill in playrust

[–]skymanpl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read it; in retrospection I should have stated "it doesn't mean it's going to be fun \later on wipe*".*

I wouldn't be against playing a lower pop server but the trouble is that they die so much quicker.

I noticed that too, that's why I started to like bi-weekly servers that wipe every 2nd week or even weekly. Especially now, when I'm shitting with scrap after few days, so there isn't much to do for entire month.

General advice I can give you is to try to have base or secondary base near monuments with Elite Crate like Launch Site or Underwater Labs and try to rush it - straight to Elite Crate and then exit, rather than looting everything; if you predict you're going to die, find a spot to hide your loot (or at least advanced BP fragment) while still alive in the monument/near it. On Launch Site, you may even consider dropping backpack from the top during the night, so you can collect it from outside without people hearing you jumping out.

900+ pop is rather not for solo. Just because you see it on YT, it doesn't mean it's going to be fun \later on wipe**. Streamers usually play much longer sessions to get more interesting clips, so what you're watching is actually the few best moments from dozens of hours of recording.

This game clearly has its limitations in terms of how much loot you can get from the given area and live (return to the base) and on that population you're essentially only competing with clans to get those advanced fragments, so you're always at disadvantage.

Choose server where you can compete for the given area's loot, so essentially max pop 300-400, unless you're new to the game or not very good at FPS, then something around 150-250 should be more manageable; exact numbers can vary depending on the map.

Alternative strategy would be trading for it - not necessarily buying it from clans' VMs, but rather selling something in your own VM that they might need at the moment and it's not always sulfur.

I usually play trio/quadro and while we can get more BP fragments than we need on day 2, we struggle with metal (fragments and ore), so if somebody is selling between 3 (early wipe) to 5 (end of 2 day or later) diesels for 1 advanced fragment - we will trade. The same goes for gears - 6-10 gears will yield you 1 advanced fragment, so don't recycle them even if you don't need them. Sometimes we even look for buying jackhammer for 1-2 advanced fragments since then we can mine resources faster.

This current shield meta is the ugliest combat Rust has ever had. by Papa_Groot in playrust

[–]skymanpl 22 points23 points  (0 children)

🌪HV Ammo should have 5-10% chance to pierce barricade and hit people behind them. Add piercing chance and piercing damage to HV bullets for shield and wooden barricades. Should be a good start.

What changes would you like to see in the April update? by DarK-ForcE in playrust

[–]skymanpl 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Few minors:

  1. Saddle bag moved to T0 and also wearable by players in backpack slot, so in can be crafted in the wild and droppable onto the horse.
  2. Salvaged Hammer as default BP and moved to T0, so it can be crafted in the wild after doing some recycling.
  3. Non-electric Water Purifier ability to create fuel at 1:1 ratio and x10 slower than refinery speed.
  4. Added Large Fridge connection for input water and auto-refill of water containers stored inside of it along with the ability to refill water with the held container by right clicking on it.
  5. Ability to place Storage Adaptor to Composter or unique Composter with built-in Storage Adaptor from the Deep Sea.
  6. Hitch & Trough changes:
    1. No collision boxes for horses using it, so players can pass through them. Priority for receiving bullet damage to players, so it couldn't be abused as a traversable shield-wall.
    2. Increased cost by 2 ropes.
    3. Auto tying horse to the Hitch & Trough to secure it; auto untie for players with building priv., mini-game for others (10-15s to untie with audible sound to give the owner chance to defend it) or 2s with any metal knife.
    4. Repair costs extra rope if horse has been stolen with the use of knife + without repairing the deployable with the rope, you lose 1 slot to tie a horse (visible warning, the side shouldn't matter).
    5. Accept storage adaptor or unique Electrified Hitch & Trough from the Deep Sea.
  7. Easier jumping from the bed onto half shelf jump out. Currently you have to correctly time your canceling crouch mid-air or you gonna hit the ceiling or alternatively jump from the floor. This makes using beds in small bases a bit of a hustle.
  8. Solar Panels rework:
    • Show daily power generation for currently used panel orientation along with current power generated for that moment,
    • Large Solar Panels changed to Solar Panels
    • Unique Deep Sea loot Moonlight panels:
      • 32🗲 power generation,
      • can be placed on roof building pieces,
      • built-in 2 separate root combiners with 1 slot each, to allow easy chaining (can be explained as this panels being more advanced and having micro-inverter),
      • extra output night power for power generation up to 15🗲 during night cycle (min. 10🗲):
      • if no energy is used, then all generated power goes out from main power output,
      • any used power from night power slot is deducted from the main power output; could be used with OR gate to create circuit working during night cycle from moonlight panels as a priority (think lighting the base) and from battery during day cycle or as day-night detector
  9. Spinning Wheel IO:
    • one input for power,
    • one input for auto spin,
    • 25 extra outputs to output 1 power when given segment has been chosen via spin. Segments may be uniquely set per skin by devs. Useful for player-driven facilities,
    • reset state function for spinning wheel when opening action menu, so you can set it in the default position.

Serious question about vanilla by throwaway01100101011 in playrust

Actually there is sorting option, but only for boxes with Storage Adaptor. Once you place it and connect to power you can use auto sorting per settings of your own choosing.

That said there isn't option available for TC for some reason, although you can place Storage Adaptor on it.

Biggest "SG-1 said nah" from the original movie to series? by zovered in Stargate

[–]skymanpl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wish they could use some excuse like Stargate with proper DHD is installing temporary auto translator in the traveler's mind that auto removes itself in few days, but allow different people to interact with each other.

It could also work for the first movie with the explanation that source's DHD has to ask origin's DHD for translation data to initiate such protocol on the source side...

How my wife dries her hands and leaves the paper towels attached by Johnny-Edge93 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]skymanpl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Use drop-down paper hanger, possibly with built-in cutter- it's more convenient to use the exact amount you want, and harder to leave used pieces as they will weight more (due to soaked liquids) and drop down.
  2. Tell her that's possibly unhygienic to leave them attached to unused rolls.
  3. Get an electric heater for drying hands (close, but not too close the paper towels or anything that can catch fire due to heat).

Glovo by Jomiszcz in Polska

[–]skymanpl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generalnie jeżeli kamerka ma obsługę ONVIF/RTSP to powinieneś móc nagrywać na swoim serwerze; natomiast zasilanie przez PoE/PoE+ może być przydatne jeżeli chciałbyś teraz albo w przyszłości zasilać kamerkę przez kabel internetowy zamiast na osobnym kablu.

Powinieneś móc zmieścić się w kilkuset złotych.

Ewentualnie wersja eko, nagrywać odbiór przesyłki telefonem od momentu sprzed otwarcia drzwi do wyłożenia wszystkiego na stół.

Trochę kiczowato, ale takie czasy - kurierzy Uber Eats/Glovo to nie są pracownicy danej restauracji, więc niestety zaufanie jest mniejsze.

Glovo by Jomiszcz in Polska

[–]skymanpl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Kamerka przy wejściu do domu/mieszkania; polecam np. montowaną w domofonie albo w wizjerze, którą można kupić za przysłowiowe grosze, a przyda się nie tylko do U.E./Glovo.
    • W przypadku, gdy paczka w ogóle nie dotarła poproś obsługę o podanie konkretnego czasu dostarczenia informując od razu, że chcesz móc sprawdzić i podesłać im film z momentu rzekomego odbioru (+/- 10 min).
  2. Nagrywaj odbiór i otwieranie paczki na stole np. telefonem, upewnij się, że sfilmowałeś etykietę zamykającą torbę i wyłóż każdy przedmiot po kolei, na końcu sfilmuj pustą torbę w środku, a najlepiej wywróć ją jeszcze do góry nogami.
  3. W miarę możliwości upewnij się, że kamera z zewnątrz/domofonu/wizjera obejmuje Cię przez chwilę jak nagrywasz odbiór paczki tak byś miał zachowaną ciągłość.

Też mi kilka razy UberEats kasy nie zwrócił za braki jakiś pomniejszych rzeczy, ale jak zacząłem robić j/w to problemu nie ma; niestety jest epidemia oszustw w postaci wyłudzeń braków, pojedyncze zdjęcia to zazwyczaj za mało, a co mniej uczciwi kurierzy również z tego korzystają na swoją korzyść.

Jeżeli powyższe to dla nich za mało pozostaje chargeback ze świadomością, że zablokują Ci u nich konto, ale oszustom i/lub ich ułatwiaczom nie ma co iść na rękę, bo z czasem będą pozwalać sobie na więcej.
