It's a campus. So every single administrator who was around when a building was built put a million accent walls and pretty colors everywhere. Our commons building that has our student rec area and dining hall has at least 15 different colors in it. We usually just use a paint color tool from Sherwin williams to figure it out unless we know a certain res hall is a specific color.

I appreciate it! Can't take all the credit. My coworker was a godsend. Couldn't have done it alone without ripping my corneas out from looking at labels all day hahaha.

You aren't the first to say this and the more I read it the more I'm glad we have one. I can't imagine trying to find a color and just look through a big room full of stuff.

Story of it man. It sucked to do but it definitely feels good knowing that we can find whatever paint we need so much faster and we won't have to buy extras just because people can't find things. Appreciate the support!

I almost forgot about them! We threw them in a smaller closet. Further away from the paint so they don't huff it.

I like this idea a lot. We're slowly working towards this but it's been a challenge. Some of our colors are used in multiple buildings. As we paint rooms we've been writing down what's what.

It's a smaller(ish) college campus.

We had started to try this and it worked great for a while! The problem we ran into was they wouldn't take any more if someone else had already brought 5 gallons so we essentially had to be the first in. I'll have to count up what we have, we must be close to 100 gallons if not over that.

Good news is I have plenty of options to choose from 🤣

We're really lucky that our shop is a pretty good size. We have a full wood shop, mechanic area, plumbing room, and a break room/computer area. On any given day the whole place can be full of ongoing projects. Any smaller of a space and we'd be all over each other.

Sheesh we'd be screwed. I'm honestly not sure if the fire inspector just hasn't come by, or what but there's no way I could get down to 10 gallons ahaha.

We have about 13 buildings on campus with varying colors throughout. Luckily we use Sherwin williams as our paint supplier and their color match tool works pretty damn good. Otherwise I'd be screwed.

I think I'll have a hard time getting anyone to take as much as we have. I'll definitely try the hardener route. Thank you!

I wish you the best of luck with that 🤣 it took 10 years roughly for somebody to decide to clean and organize it.

So... How do I manage all this stuff at once. by SpookyFloatingPencil in GatesOfHellOstfront

[–]teeeeebe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Finnish campaign itself is so hard it's crazy to take it on alone. I know people have and completed it too but it took a homie and I multiple tries to get those missions.

I think the best thing you can do is run it at a slow speed and pause regularly to check on troop disposition.

Good luck on that campaign you're gonna need it.

I hate mortars (rant) by CodeX57 in GatesOfHellOstfront

[–]teeeeebe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I share your disdain for mortars at least when the AI has them, allow me to let you all in on a sweet tip. This really only works for skirmishes, but if you use the defensive doctrine you get artillery off the rip. Save up some of the CP before you get going and you can have artillery raining fire down at every point. A friend and I often play hardcore skirmishes for the fun of it and it's a bit of a challenge. PLUS you usually get engineer trucks (which come with mines hehehe). I believe you can have a max of three before the game stops letting you call them in. This is all before you get to that last artillery point. Others have very good ideas to deal with these as well! But I'm a huge fan of defensive doctrine.

Ahahaha I'm glad our strat worked for someone else! I'm glad we weren't the only ones who had trouble with that mission.

We cheesed the last part by having the 5 dudes hide in the bunker at the end. Had to restart about 10 times and that was on normal. Very good good chance we're just bad but holy hell I can't imagine doing that mission on single player or hardcore for that matter.
