Are No Man's Sky roleplaying groups a myth?

Posted: 06 Jul 2021 12:58 AM PDT

I've heard that there are roleplaying groups, in No Man's Sky, that engage in battle, build, and/or explore. I have seen articles on it from both Polygon and Reddit.

However, I do not know if any such groups exist anymore, or if they ever did. I would like to try one out, if I could.

Is Nihil still available in Warframe?

Posted: 06 Jul 2021 01:50 AM PDT

I heard about this new great sword/heavy blade weapon that is actually really powerful, and was told that it can only by earned by killing Nihil.

I started the game a week ago, and according to the Fandom site, "Series 3 (The Glassmaker)" ended in January, 2021.

Is there still a way to get the weapon? Is Nihil still available in Warframe?

What is this downtown side job during the Corpo prologue?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 09:45 PM PDT

At the start of the game for Corpo lifepath there's a side job on the map, just west of corporate plaza. It's marked "UNDISCOVERED - Who knows what you might find?" with "DANGER: VERY HIGH". I don't see any way to get there during the prologue. Is it possible? If it's something we're not meant to do until later, why is it showing up now?

How to use Swallow Slice more than twice, without touching the ground?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 09:14 PM PDT

Trying to use Swallow Slice to possibly get above the first tunnel of the Valley of Illusive Water...

At Level 15 Swallow Slice, it says I can use it once, then repeat twice...

How do I do that? Is the description assuming that I'm hitting enemies first? I know I've done slices that go through the same enemy twice in both directions...

But I can't seem to get that quick an activation without enemies?

And when I can get it to happen twice, I can only use it twice, not thrice, without touching the ground again, even though 16 SP * 3 is 48 SP, below my 50 SP max?

I even use the Raiment to grapple walls to wait out the SP regen, but that's not helping?

How do I solo a Stalker?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 07:56 PM PDT

I mainly play Nekros, and I don't have any other frames.

I use ether Reaper, Boltor or Lato. My abilities are useless, because

  1. Terrify doesn't work on a stalker,
  2. Stalkers are too quick for Soul Punch,
  3. Desecrate could give stalkers a window to dominate in 5 seconds, and
  4. While Shadows of the Dead works, I'm dead by the time the animation finishes.

Are there any strategies or mods for soloing a stalker? To take one down, I currently need a full advanced squad with one-shot-kill weapons. I specialise in melee, and I've only beat him once by mere luck, but he still escaped. What do I do? I'm trying to get mastery 4 rank hate and despair blueprints with. I also don't know how to actually find a stalker; I've received 5 death messages, but they have only shown up 3 times since then.

Game minimizing during play

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 08:42 PM PDT

I have rocket league on epic games. Occasionally the game will minimize during a match. The game will still be visible, but movement input wont work until I click on the screen. In critical moments this can be devestating. I've seen people ask questions about this on the steam version, but not with epic games. How do i prevent it from minimizing?

Can I still directly modify character files in DDLC Plus?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 07:24 PM PDT

In the original version of Doki Doki Literature Club, at certain points in the story you would need to locate the game's data folder and delete specific game files to progress. In the new version, Doki Doki Literature Club Plus, this feature seems to have been replaced by a fake computer that appears when you quit the game.

Is there still a way to directly modify character files in the PC version of DDLC Plus? Or can it only be done through the fake PC?

Using commands to find blocks

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 06:29 PM PDT

My memory is vague on this one, but I do remember a command that could identify where particular things are - like wolves, or End Ships/Forts. I don't remember the command to do it, but I do remember that it could be done in chat; no Command blocks required.

Can this be done to find blocks? For example, the new Amethyst blocks?

Clash of Clans total account value?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 01:39 PM PDT

I've looked at a couple of sites that give you statistics on your Clash of Clans base, but I can't find a statistic on your total account value.

There are numbers telling you the total gold, elixir, and dark elixir that you've looted, but nothing on full account value (which would be adding all building costs and upgrade costs for everything you currently have).

Where can I find my total account value? I'd appreciate something that I don't have to manually enter all of my buildings and their levels into.

How can I effectively deal with Genji?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 01:22 PM PDT

I'm having difficulty playing against teams with a good Genji. They kill me or my teammates and escape while I struggle to damage them.

What characters and strategies are effective against Genji.

Is RuneScape realworld trade legal?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 12:05 PM PDT

I just created my first account in RuneScape!

I am not a "grinding" person and would like to kick-start my fun by purchasing some gold.

Since I am looking for old-school RuneScape, I have found a website that says they sell gold and other in-game goods, and also they claim that their services are 10% safe. So my question what is likely hood to get any penalty for purchasing and in general is it actually illegal to buy in-game goods with real money.

And if it's illegal, why so? What's the reason behind that.

Thank you for any answers!

Run command when motion is a certain value near player

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 11:39 AM PDT

My brain refuses to explain a problem without context, so please bear with me.

I'm attempting to make a PVP map, but I want there to be a specific and custom "death message" for arrows being "hit" because there are multiple different arrows I intend on having (custom tipped arrows); e.g. I have an arrow that should be an instant kill that I want to have announce *target* was sniped by *source*. Because I have showDeathMessages disabled for this and other ways of dying, and I also want there to be a specific set of commands to run post-death, I can't simply kill the target with the arrow and let Minecraft's main death messages handle it.

Here's the actual problem. In order to do this while still keeping it accurate to the target's health, I want to calculate the speed of an arrow and, provided it causes the damage of the arrow to be equal to or higher than said health, run a command; in this case, I want to teleport the target back to spawn.

As of this moment in time. I already have the following set up;

  • A scoreboard (uuid) set up to find and match UUIDs from an Arrow's Owner[0] to a player's UUID[0] -- this was made assuming that the first object in the IntArray will always be unique (due in part to UUID's meaning);
  • A tag for it having been found, named "ping";
  • A command chain running every tick to find, compare, and match said UUIDs;
  • Scoreboards (vx, vy, and vz) set up to find and store an Arrow's three Motion tags;
  • Command chains running every tick to do the above, provided the Arrow isn't in the ground

The primary issue is that the command (below) I'm attempting to use to determine a "hit" isn't doing anything. For this, I'm assuming a fully charged bow and that an arrow needs to be less than half a block near the target before Minecraft actually recognizes it as a hit;

execute as @e[tag=ping,scores={vx=2..}] at @s if entity @p[distance=..0.5,scores={health=..6}] unless score @p uuid = @s uuid run tp @p 127 179 8

What I understand the command to be doing should be;

  • As every entity with the tag ping whose vx score is 2 or larger,
    • ...if the nearest player is within .5 blocks and has <=6 health,
    • ...unless that player has the same UUID as the Owner tag of the entity,
  • teleport the player to the coordinates.

Instead, the arrow simply hits and damages the player regardless of health, and thus so will kill the player before they teleport anywhere. Since I want other commands and death messages to run and be displayed after teleporting, I can't let it just kill them.

Is the syntax of the command wrong? I thought it was a problem with the distance selector (at if entity @p [distance=..0.5]...), but even after setting that to ..1 instead of ..0.5, it still did nothing.

I can't join any servers on minecraft when I just changed my username

AppleArcade The Oregon Trail: What does wagon grease do?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 08:06 PM PDT

In the AppleArcade version of the Oregon Trail, the purpose of wagon grease is described as increasing the wagon's resistance to damage. When used, the wagon glows green for a moment with some + symbols hovering around it. However, from my experience it does not really seem to do anything, and I can't find a menu showing the wagon's current damage resistance or anything like that. So does it actually work, or could it be bugged? It's very inexpensive so perhaps it works but doesn't have much effect?

Can you use checkpoints for the no-hit achievments?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 02:28 PM PDT

The title is the majority of the question. For the battles that have checkpoints, can I use them to complete the achievements that require you beating them without getting hit?

Such as, can I do the beginning to the first checkpoint without getting hit, then can I then get hit after the checkpoint and restart from it and keep trying until I get that part done without getting hit?

Logitech g29 shifter, potential knob problem

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 01:26 PM PDT

I just bought a logitech g29 shifter.

In this shifter, there are two knobs, that you spin them in order for the clamp to come up, and secure the shifter to a mount - a desk for example.

Once you are finished with turning, then you press the knob in, and it stays down.

The thing is, one of my knobs works exactly like that, but the other knob will not stay down when i press it.

Is this normal behavior? Or both of them are supposed to stay down when pressed?

My Minecraft account is taking forever to sign in

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 06:08 PM PDT

Whenever I press the sign-in option, it takes forever to load. I left it for 3 hours once and it still won't sign in. It's just stuck on the loading screen. I already tried uninstalling it, and I don't really have any other apps installed, so what should I do? I'm on the Windows 10 one if that makes anything clearer.

Do Minecraft Bedrock servers support multithreading?

Do the bedrock edition Minecraft dedicated servers support multithreading? According to the wiki, the client does, but I could not find anything about the server.

What are crew levels?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 04:23 PM PDT

After a ship combat victory, the details can list something similar to:

  • The crew earned 1234 experience. (companion experience)
  • The crew earned 4 Sailor Experience. (actual crew experience)
  • CrewMember#1 gained a rank!
  • CrewMember#2 gained a level!
  • CrewMember#3 gained a level!
  • CrewMember#3 gained a rank!

What are crew levels, and how do they differ from ranks? Why do crew members get either a level, a rank, or both?

When does Xoti first mention her dreams?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 04:05 PM PDT

At what point does Xoti first mention that she's having nightmares?

Starting with Maje Island I have had conversations with her about her nightmares as if the protagonist already knows about them, but her dialogue before this never mentioned her having nightmares, there was no setup for the problem. Now I'm wondering if this is an oversight from the writers/narrative designers, if an initial conversation failed to trigger, or if it was mentioned in passing and I missed it.

Cannot run Minecraft on Windows 7

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 11:06 PM PDT

I started playing Minecraft a few years back but then quit. Now I'm wanting to play it again but whenever I click on the Minecraft Launcher these messages show up:

The first message

The second message

Can anyone help please?

I have deleted every single trace of Minecraft from my pc and reinstalled it but it still wouldn't work.

DMG interuption (mac)

Whenever I try to open the Minecraft Launcher, it always comes up with this alert...

I have attempted to trouble shoot, deleting all DMGs, but time after time it keeps on coming up with this image. I feel like the only way to fix this is to uninstall Minecraft, then reinstall it but I don't want to lose all of my stuff

Minecraft /playsound for raid horn?

Is there a way to quickly locate one's own space ship in No Man's Sky?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 01:05 PM PDT

I've just started playing No Man's Sky, on PlayStation 4; having found the spaceship as part of the initial beginning of the game, I then wandered off to explore and mine various resources.

Given the title of this question you'd be absolutely correct in assuming I got lost, or lost sight of my ship and now need to find my way back. I've seen various mentions of activating a beacon, but assuming that requires construction (Beacon - No Man's Sky Wiki) I have no blueprints for such and, if it's a function of my spaceship I seem unable to access said function and the spaceship itself is out of range.

Is there some means or in-game function that I'm overlooking?

Would Geddy have reacted differently in Advent if I hadn't dropped him off a cliff?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 02:28 PM PDT

During the attack on Advent, Otus rescues a prisoner with a broken leg. At first Geddy suggests that Otus should carry her to safety. However, in my playthrough Geddy quickly changed his mind...

Geddy: Otus, maybe you can carry her to safety?

Anne: Carry me? What if he drops me?

Alphonse: Hahaha! Otus would never do such a thing! Isn't that right, Master Geddy?

Geddy: ... panicked HAHAHA! NEVER! *runs away screaming*

...back in Vellie, I might have accidentally dropped Geddy off the cliff a few dozen times. I suspect this may have had something to do with his panicked reaction.

Would Geddy have reacted differently in Advent if I hadn't dropped him?

How do I get past this Kihunter cocoon after reloading a save?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 03:14 PM PDT

I'm at the point in Metroid Fusion where you have to restore auxiliary power to the station. I saved at the ship and proceeded through fine. I successfully got to the spider boss once, died, and when I reloaded the save, the Kihunter cocoon just to the left of the docking bay was still wriggling and I couldn't get past it. How do I get it to leave the cocoon?

Screenshots: The secret entrance is to the left in this room The secret entrance is to the left in this room.

And this is what I'm greeted with upon entering. The cocoon is impassable in this state. And this is what I'm greeted with upon entering. The cocoon is impassable in this state.

Can I read diary entries I missed?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 02:06 PM PDT

Hat Kid has a secret diary you can read if you

It looks like you can only see one entry at a time, usually something relevant to plot points you just cleared. Is there any way to see entries you missed? (If not, anyone got a list of all the entries?)

Do rivers cause eco-damage in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 10:45 PM PDT

Looking at a StrategyWiki page, I see that condensers, which cause rain, cause eco-damage.

I can only presume that is because Planet prefers to be dry, or that rain causes plants which destroy fungus.

Using that logic, I should be afraid to "drill to aquifer" and create a new river. However, the same page does not mention any eco-damage.

Can anyone cite a reference as to whether "drill to aquifer" causes eco-damage or not?

Where can I see a full list of all of the Xbox games I own?

Posted: 05 Jul 2021 07:48 PM PDT

Since Xbox Live Gold offers free games I have collected a lot of downloadable games on my Xbox Live account. Looking on my console is not an option, since I don't currently have an Xbox 360, and the Xbox One only shows my Xbox One games.
