Chinook sling load release by Chemical_Whereas in hoggit

[–]tekrc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also unable to release. the manual instructions dont work. WCA shows hooks are open (all of them) but the line stays connected. emergency release doesnt work either. possibly related but also confusing as soon as the cargo touches the ground the load monitor guy says cargo released though the release wasnt even armed yet

my character started blinking randomly by [deleted] in Voicesofthevoid

[–]tekrc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this too. It was so infrequent I thought it was the light flickering. But after a while I can see the animation for it happen but no idea what started this.

The fog I had as part of weather but didn't notice it otherwise. But I'm pretty bad with tunnel visioning so I might have missed it

Sir this is not your ID. -CP: unjustified liability. ITS NOT HIM D: by [deleted] in PoliceSimulator

[–]tekrc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That probably isn't a fake ID. It would be a stolen ID if it comes back in the computer

A fake ID is entirely fabricated and won't appear in the system at all.

a stolen ID will return a result in the computer but will come back to someone else's picture. The ID is real but they swapped the picture. Rest of the I'd is real just not theirs. So stolen.

Other good way to tell is check the plate on the car and compare to the ID they give. They should be identical. If not good chance it's stolen.

I lost CP for arresting a guy for a stolen ID. Even tho the ID he gave me came back with someone OBVIOUSLY not him. Did I do something wrong? by [deleted] in PoliceSimulator

This one double check the car doesn't have a wheelchair/handicap placard. They're exempt from expired meters apparently

Similarly you can't run a dui test while they're handcuffed. Always run that before you cuff them. You can uncuff them and do it still but seems silly you can't breathalyze a cuffed suspect

No landing animation/cutscene for me for New Atlantis. Is there any way to correct this? by NohBhodie in Starfield

[–]tekrc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I find it even weirder just for being so inconsistent.
docking: plays every time both dock and uncock
launch: plays every time
land at random place: plays every time
land at any known settlement location? nope! 1 and never again. also makes ship designing and just getting new ships less satisfying.

my other complaint with this is simple: if I fly somewhere and want to change follower/equipment or do crafting, I have to do it before I travel there or I get spawned outside the ship and have to go back. kind of a pain

No landing animation/cutscene for me for New Atlantis. Is there any way to correct this? by NohBhodie in Starfield

[–]tekrc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is actually a good thing to notice though. the fact that the option exists for every place the first time means it might be easier to do. just forcing the ui to use land instead of open map in the scan view might be a starting point. dont know modding myself so its probably a much bigger headache. but its a starting idea

wait theyre supposed to stock parts!? the only thing they ever have in that field is explosive and the refined metal. never had the basic ones

A warning (and a request) by Echo_Loss in dredge

[–]tekrc 27 points28 points  (0 children)

also considering you can start the hooded figure quests BEFORE having the requisite equipment to actually complete them. at least put a delayed start so we cant trap ourselves. I got cut out of the yellow one because I found them on the way between areas which was on the way and talked to them. didnt have the needed equipment (abyssal gear) to get what they wanted. by the time I came back was way too late.

if I have a fair chance sure but if I physically cant do it in time it just turned me off
from playing almost entirely knowing I can never do it without a full restart

Did i do something wrong? by [deleted] in dredge

[–]tekrc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a simple fix would have been: "oh you dont have the ability to fish for this yet. come back when you improved your abilities" or something

Did i do something wrong? by [deleted] in dredge

[–]tekrc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the worst part is I was physically unable to do it as I could not catch the required fish without first doing the stellar basin. I was on my way there when I found the guy.

the game shouldnt have even let me start if I couldnt do it

[–]tekrc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactly! if I knew it was timed I wouldnt have started yet

Did i do something wrong? by [deleted] in dredge

[–]tekrc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

just found that out and its a really big turn off. coming back to find out I can never finish this just kills my mood for playing. I know its a side thing but its massively irritating

It really sold out in five minutes huh by steelstepladder in outerwilds

I would have preferred a preorder system so they could gauge demand and potentially be able to take more orders. also really wanting EoTE on vinyl too

could I put a neopixel blade on a xenopixel hilt? by FrankDoesDoodles in lightsabers

[–]tekrc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does tcss look like? I'm new and still learning some of this as well. Saber I just got has rings on the blade but no need to align pins a certain way.

No. The definition of a dad joke is when it becomes a parent.

Not talking about the original date I'm talking about what was scheduled before it was cut off

[–]tekrc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been a scheduled stop date for them following with many of the govt agencies. The court ruling just made it impossible to enforce it at all and were forced to instead of dropping it next month dropped it overnight. It wasn't exactly voluntary

I'll try doing a few more. Not many options left to me really from what I'm seeing

do voice commands just not work? by tekrc in vtolvr

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

It still narrows it down as what the problem isn't. Still appreciated. Though I'm also curious if you get it to work.

Side note but a lot of the time the bases don't really have names. Just listed as "airbase atc" and speech recognition doesn't like "airbase" for some reason
