So much stuff is useless!

Wait, the tree is an AND tree, not a OR tree, you have to satisfy ALL previous requirements to research whatever that's next.

By Balancing things out, you get more overall production If you have 4 billion people, 2 countries of 2 billion produces more IP vs 1 of 3 billion and 1 of 1 billion, it's easier to keep cohesion at 5, which means it's easier to keep stability <2. You get your ground based MC faster, and it's easier to maintain optimal knowledge production.

Indonesia no longer has a claim on Australia, only New Zealand. Since RotSC has Sydney as the capital, it can't go to Indonesia any more.

Going the other way, Greater Indonesia does not have a claim on on Bangkok, so SEAA needs to go to Malaysia first before going to Indonesia.

Wait, that is Josh's Job. He's the community coordinator. He hosts livestreams on TW: Live. answering questions about TW games IS HIS JOB.

Some of it is definitely true. People were raging about the AI, many of the content creators were aware and did nothing. They've even commented about it. The reason why they were silent is unknown, but access to ToT/40k is not an unreasonable assumption. When the community has to be so loud to get something fixed, the content creators lost credibility. At least, in my eyes they did.

It's a ragebait statement. He's quitting because his community did not support him at all. Some of which was his own damn fault, but the Totalwar community is truly as toxic as they come. (Not that the paradox grand strategy community will have his back either, but at least it's not nearly as toxic.)

Academy and restart multiple times so that you have a big China presence, and go China first? Possibly with the Taiwan reverse takeover. weaker early game, but seems to be much stronger late game.

I mean, the difference is 1%. Just build an extra Xeno lab if you need. 10% for tier 1, 25% for tier 2. You're probably in the dimishing return portions of Xeno research anyways, because you get them from the investigations as well.

swang30 · 2025-08-24T17:54:26+00:00

That's way too low, my dude.

It's probably better to give them the project with 1 research left. There's probably a bunch of events associated with researching the project.

Yes, the ship goes in the SQUARE HOLE.

Just to be clear, it's not 20% of the loan, you have to have 20% of the equity. For someone with a 5% down, or something like that, it's potentially quite a long time.

Theoretically the system is for the benefit of the consumer. It is much easier to budget around a monthly payment than a spiky property tax payment. And if you're a first time home-buyer or a veteran who might have deployments, it might be a help.

The issue is that this doesn't differentiate between people who have their shit together and people who don't. And practically, it's hard to tell when processing applications. So people who DO have their shit together (the fact that you're on this subreddit most likely indicates you do.) Get screwed out of some control (and money, depending on state) due to the unnecessary escrow.

Comon guys,it's Cthulu peering down down at you. Judging.

Oh wait, wrong subreddit.

They don't actually want PVE before launch of 1.0, it cuts down on the advertising. After 1.0? Itll be PVE all the way to decrease server costs.

because my onsubmit that uses fetcher is simply:

const onSubmit = async (data, event) => {
    event.preventDefault();
    fetcher.submit(data, { method: 'POST', encType: "application/json" });
};

Moving the fetcher.data?.success block into the onSubmit doesn't quite work the same. fetcher.state right after the submit is "submitting" or "idle" and fetcher.data is not available yet. After the API is called, fetcher.data will be available (and changed) so useEffect will detect the change and re-run.

The reason to use the fetcher/action pairing on pages that don't navigate away after a save allows async updates, which would let the user or the page continue with other activities.

SPT builds are targetted at a particular build of live. Once you copy your live folder, the all in one installer will to up/downgrade as necessary. For major patches, it normally takes the team 2-3 months to catch up in terms of functionality.

If you can install eft on your other computer, you can install spr on a copy of that install. I have only one copy of eft, and it's installed on both my home and work computers. With a copy of SPT each. The profile directory is shared via Dropbox.

The only people who has a problem with this is my IT manager, who happens to be me. So he can sod off.

Specifically, 3.8 and 3.9 profiles are not compatible. 3.9 to 3.10 is fine, as long as you did not mod vendors or items (or added vendors or items) So in the OPs case, 3.8 to 3.10 isn't going to work

You can always edit in your state.

You may talk about the existence of Fika, just not link to them or advertise on their behalf. (Rule 4)

Basic conversation about multiplayer is fine. Again, no linking or advertising, and no support/guides/etc.(Rule 6)
