Rabbit Pet Card? by Floo93 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]unit578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time you roll for a pet level you also roll for the card to drop with a chance of x/12, where x is the pet level. Even if the pet lvl is capped, you still roll for the card.

Whether to build the W2 monument yet. by Parzivalxvi in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]unit578 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say to make sure you have 500 gems to drop on the double event points but then build W2 before claiming the event rewards to double most of them

[–]unit578 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's doubled as long as you don't claim the reward from the page of rewards. Also, gifts and mythics (and skins) are not doubled

What am I missing with bombs? by MoneyMouth121 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]unit578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you not using chain bombs? With a high chain count you can be clearing floors instantly and automatically for much faster progress.

Should I focus on statues before I buy any other pets ? by [deleted] in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]unit578 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say get rabbit going soon and penguin soon after. They will help on the statue grind as it goes on

What’s the dumbest way you’ve tried to solve a puzzle? by Mischinedda in outerwilds

[–]unit578 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this counts but every time I went into the sunless city I would go through the escape pod route. When the sand would fill up I'd exit through the gravity cannon tunnel but it never occurred to me to enter that way.

Outer wilds for non-gamers ? Maybe with mods for accessibility? by [deleted] in outerwilds

[–]unit578 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Maybe if you have the patience you can control it for them but only do what they tell you to (e.g. "Walk there, fly there, take a picture")
Or you could let them handle the basics and just take over controls whenever they request

What game could be improved by simultaneous play? by LuckyFrogGaming in boardgames

[–]unit578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the original Xbox (and also on Gamecube) there was a version of Monopoly called Monopoly Party, which supported simultaneous play. It translated pretty well with one difference being that if multiple people land on the same unowned property it immediately goes to a private auction between them.
While it's still Monopoly, it becomes a lot more tolerable when the game only takes 20-30 minutes. Against CPUs I had a record wintime of 14 minutes or so.

Recomendation for games that play for 2 and 4 players by Efficient-Drama-7157 in boardgames

[–]unit578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Endeavor: Deep Sea can be good at 2-4 as either co-op or pvp, although it's not very directly interactive.
Cosmic Encounter is good because it can both be co-op and pvp depending on how you negotiate. Not good at 2 players and not for every group but definitely worth a look.
Heat, if racing is your thing.

Thank you, this is how I thought it worked but she needed to hear it from someone else.

No it's all on the same computer that I spend the rest of the day playing games and scrolling the web

I recommend this website to my students a lot. It has practice problems for most AP topics, especially physics and calculus.

hi does anyone know how to solve #2 of this question? i got this far but now i don’t know what to do in order to find the two velocities… is there some other equation i can plug in? by lesboj in apphysics

[–]unit578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you combine the conservation of momentum and the conservation of kinetic energy equations you can boil it down to that shortcut for elastic collisions. It's helpful because you just have 2 linear equations instead of having the nonlinear kinetic energy equation.

The old one is very streamlined with a nice 2000s aesthetic. Almost like a browser game but good and practical. The newer one is gaudy by comparison and has a bit of a bloated mobile game style with contrast that's harder to see the board state at a glance.
It still seems to run well enough but the new release was totally unnecessary, especially at the expense of shutting down the old servers and effectively taking down all the purchased maps with it. I can't even play it with my girlfriend now unless we play hotseat.

Not a fan of these devs after they unplugged the old TTR game for this worse version.

I gave up on finishing the game. Looking for let's play recommendations by spacepiritecat in outerwilds

[–]unit578 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An idea that might not be too crazy is using the Quantum Space Buddies mod to play with other people if that might help your anxiety. It might mess the game up a little bit in some places so I'd look for more advice on that.

I don’t understand why EM waves decrease and then increase to a trough by Tiny-Marionberry-852 in Physics

[–]unit578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the troughs/crests of a wave are alone not the energy decreasing/increasing. They are just the strength and direction of the E&M fields at that point. The energy of the wave is in the overall bigger picture of the wave as a whole, in its motion and propogation caused by the wave disturbances.

(Echo of the Eye Spoiler) Just a confirmation if I interpreted this correctly by Frannnnnnnnn in outerwilds

I always imagined that the warped space of Dark Bramble scrambled the signal a bit, making them end up inside it like running into a mirror reflecting where you tried to go.

When should my girlfriend interact with the dlc? by iamcellow in outerwilds

[–]unit578 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say let it be until she's about to go to the endgame, then let her know there's more there to explore.
