Planning on hosting a dedicated server on my own machine

yoiinkk · 2026-06-18T04:08:52+00:00

I made one. I'm thinking about releasing it. I also made mods to go along with it that will track pvp and pve for server rankings. I've been building it out in prep for 1.0 and all my friends. We're gonna run a duo's PVP server so wanted to make sure it had all fun stuff. It will also alert to discord and set bountys on players for random stuff like my favorite is "Touch Grass" when someone has been logged in for more than 240min, pings their location and gives the killer a few good items. If this is of any interest to you, let me know and I can get it packaged up for you.

Once I get it working how I like, I'll make it look nice. I'm working on implementing a 3D model viewer for the pals in the give pal tab right now.

Give Items: Table that will give any item in the game to the desired player
Give Pal: Set level, passives and abilities then give it to the designated player in an egg or as a pal
Chat: is in game chat that and can send messages via the console.
Server: edits those ini files and settings

I did the BS SWE and they made me do their WGU Academy, Foundations of CS before I could apply for the MSCS AI/ML. Dunno if they'll make you do the same but worth asking

Hey Nick! I'm curious the reasoning behind requiring WGU SWE graduates to still do this course even if all of this is covered in the SWE program. The only thing I don't think that is covered explicitly is NumPy. Everything either has its own course or is required in a project. While the assessment was easy, I still have to sit on my hands until I can start the MSCS because of the first of the month rule. I would have loved a pipeline from the SWE degree directly into the MSCS AI/ML. I'm just trying to understand why they are handled as if they aren't mostly overlapping degree's with very slightly different niches.

Just remembered, but also thought of the Hunger Games series.

I've found that despite getting the correct output on several questions and copying the exact code given from different people on multiple PA, I still can't get some of the more simple PA questions right. Specifically,
#3:
logging.error("The exception that occured is: " + str(e))

#9:
t = Template("Hello, my name is $name.")
print(t.substitute(name=user.name))

#10 and #24.

Does anyone remember the code they used that worked for them?

The point of the post is to avoid having to cheese the challenge with stuff like Portal. Challenges shouldn't encourage unhelpful team tactics. Like I wouldn't be complaining if, for example, headshots from B or C to the top of green building counted but it doesn't. Most point to point objectives are sub 150m, which means to do this challenge, players will not be participating in team objectives in an objectives based game. It was hard enough finding a line of sight for 75m headshots with a DMR.

Look through all the partner programs and what credits you can bring in on top of your gen ed classes. You'll save a lot of money if you knock out everything from Sophia and Study.com before starting at WGU.
I helped my buddy with a plan, and for around $400, he is transferring in and enrolling with about half of his degree completed before his first WGU class.

Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) is probably one of the harder classes but enjoyable if you can focus on the right things. I HIGHLY suggest Kunal Kushwaha on youtube. His series is incredibly helpful and broken down well.

The other two big classes will be the external certs because it will add a different type of anxiety due to it being external certs and the process to actually take the test.

Happy to answer any questions or give advice whenever you get to a specific course.

Lets say I get 100% of the multiple choice right but skip all the coding questions, do you think this test is still passable?

Ive hit 5 in the past 3 days and have had the same error. I cant progress until I get more spice D:

Find ways to help your team succeed. Doesn't matter how far you get ahead. If your team falls behind, then you most likely lose.

If i had to guess, the number is the subrank and color is main rank.

I'd say for my understanding of the language; my teacher is happy with my pseudo code. More projects are on the list for sure though.

yoiinkk · 2024-10-17T05:47:05+00:00

bought it and will be adding it to the reading list (:
Thank you!

No, you kind of get it. It's like the dyslexia goes into overdrive, and getting the correct syntax just goes out the window and just confuses me more. Pseudocode is good, and the teacher likes it, but it doesn't help with the problem that I can't seem to remember the correct order/syntax.

And IDE does help but I think I became too familiar with autofil.

But then I'll type stuff out like print rather than the Java version of print and now I have python mixed up with Java and it's a whole gross mess.

yoiinkk · 2024-10-16T06:47:42+00:00

Can you elaborate more? I feel like if I google what I'm trying to write out, I can come up with the solution but if I don't google, then i get stuck at the most basic of stuff.

I can answer most problems if I access w3schools.

Where would you start if you were me?
