| How can I get out of this box in The Prairie? Posted: 15 Nov 2021 03:05 AM PST In Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle, there is a box-shaped area made of circle blocks, with an Eagle and Treasure Chest inside:
It's possible to jump down and fly-kick the eagle to get access to the treasure. But here is where I got stuck:
Is there any way out of this mess? |
| Strategy game that sometimes units defy the direct order from the player? Posted: 15 Nov 2021 01:14 AM PST I'm just a guy who loves to play strategy games such as Civ5, games from paradox, rimworld etc. recently, I've been playing these games with ridiculous difficulties just to see my limits, no matter i win or not. don't ask me why i do this, i just find it's fun ¯_(ツ)_/¯ anyway, TLDR; Are there any games out there that the units refuses to get the direct order from the player like real life(with certain reason existing)? I found something is weird, It just doesn't feel right, and it was, Every time I order a suicidal order to the units for strategic reason, no matter what, they attack the opponents and die. And i found this makes the game way too easy, unless i raise up the game difficulties and give opponents a great boost. but that's not the real life case at all. I could think of the strategy makes the least damage, without making any sacrificial pieces involved. but that's pretty much it. nothing new. It would be great that the units defies the direct order with certain reason, such as fear of death, low morale etc. closest strategical game I played would be, Rimworld? I guess. Are there any strategy games that has this feature? I prefer Civ5 or Stellaris like game but i will take any recommendations. |
| Posted: 15 Nov 2021 02:28 AM PST So, I have a problem when I join a LAN world with my friends, and whenever I join, I have sort of (to simplify) 2 inventories, this happens to my friends too but not the host of the LAN world (there are 3 of us), I have no idead what triggers it but it seems to be the skins. Here are the things that might be triggering it. We use mobile hotspot (maybe requires real wifi) Host plays alone sometimes. |
| Stuck in Link's Awakening on G&W, can I recover and continue on or will I have to restart this save? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 11:27 PM PST I just got the Zelda Game & Watch and playing through Link's Awakening. Apparently this version of the game is the original GB version with the screen warping glitch intact that I'm abusing the heck out of in this playthough. I inadvertently walked off a screen when glitching around and I ended up in Eagle Tower early. I decided to just work my way out back to the entrance of the level to leave so I could get whatever goodies can be found in that part of the map. Well I'm stuck in the tower since the entrance is locked. And I saved trying to get out of there. This made matters worse and I'm actually stuck on the door and can't move or go back into the tower.
Am I actually stuck here and have to restart again? Or are there any (in game) techniques that I could exploit to get me out of this mess? |
| Screen refresh rates and stuttering Posted: 14 Nov 2021 05:27 PM PST Been playing around with the refresh rate on my monitor recently. If my monitor is on 60hz, the game runs at 60fps and everything looks smooth. However, every couple of seconds there's a small and brief bit of stutter. Not sure why this is. If my monitor is on 120 / 144 hz, the game seems to lock itself to 80fps for whatever reason and looks terrible. It looks like the periodic stutter I have on 60fps, except constant and much more pronounced. If my monitor is on 240hz, the game runs at ~170 fps. It doesn't look quite as smooth as 60fps on 60hz, but now it doesn't have the occasional stutter and rotating camera feels the same consistently. Tl;Dr - Monitor on 60hz looks good with periodic stutter. Monitor on 240hz looks slightly worse with no stutter. Monitor on 120 / 144hz looks like garbage. I'm super confused as to why this can be the case. What is going on here? Shouldn't higher FPS look better? It's my understanding that if the game fps is higher than the refresh rate, then I might get screen tearing, but here my refresh rate is always higher than the game fps, so that can be the case, right? |
| What are the jobs in the Mime (criminal) career path in the mainland China version of The Sims Posted: 14 Nov 2021 05:14 PM PST In original American version of the Sims 1, your characters could choose a criminal career path, and could be promoted through ten jobs from pickpocket to criminal mastermind. According to a list of fun facts made by EA, this was changed in the release in mainland China.
I think that's a great choice once I realized that criminals and mimes both wear striped shirts. But I think that it would be hard to come up with ten distinct mime jobs, especially if they're trying to match the work hours and wages of the original criminal jobs. Do any of you know how they named the ten mime jobs? I don't know Chinese, so it's tough for me to search for the right terms and comb through hits. The query I've tried is "模拟人生 默劇" I also found this website that lists criminal jobs in The Sims 4. I'm not sure if Sims 4 got rid of the mime career path, or if that is not the mainland China version. Notes:

| Does the Rakuyo get Stat Scaling from Arcane? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 04:35 PM PST The base weapon at +10 gets a "C" in Arcane scaling (upgrading from "D" scaling at +9), but according to the wiki, it doesn't appear to affect the damage output of the weapon (the wiki doesn't list anything about Arcane Stat Scaling). Does the Rakuyo's damage scale off Arcane at all, and if so, what are the Damage Per Point values? |
| How do I clear only items that have a certain NBT tag? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 08:26 PM PST Is there, or is there not, a way to clear a player of every item no matter the id or count? But it HAS to have a specific NBT tag or it won't clear. |
| Remove the blood on the walls in Splitgate? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 09:31 PM PST I know there is an option to disable the blood on the players, but there is still blood on the arena walls, which I want to remove. Is there any way to do this? Im willing to deal with lower texture quality if that removes it, tho I doubt it does. |
| How do I convert a world from bedrock to java without MCC ToolChest? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 02:58 PM PST When I try to convert a Minecraft world from bedrock to java with MCCToolChest, the world comes out as chaos or a void. Also i tried with Amulet but Amulet did not work (I tried converting the chunks but it does not work). I also tried to do it with universal Minecraft editor but it asks me to pay with dollars but I am not in America. Can you please tell me another way or tell me another converter? I am having trouble |
| How to prevent a(n old) fullscreen game from moving windows to the secondary screen? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 03:26 PM PST When I play some older fullscreen games (e.g. Diablo 2 or Rollercoaster Tycoon 3), their switching the primary monitor (left one) to a lower resolution somehow causes all open and maximized windows to be moved to the secondary monitor (on the right), where the will remain even after closing the game. How can this be prevented? I've already found some related questions but they differ:
Since the games are old enough a circumvention would be running them in a VM with video scaling to my native resolution, but that's not ideal. I do however wonder if there exists a tool which can create a "virtual" kind of monitor into which the game is restricted but which is then displayed scaled up without requiring as many resources as a full VM. |
| Pistons aren't working on Nukkit Server Posted: 14 Nov 2021 08:24 PM PST I am a relative newbie to Minecraft. I setup a little Minecraft server (Nukkit) on a Raspberry Pi a few weeks back for my daughter. We can not figure out how to get Pistons to do anything. We tried placing a block of Redstone directly under a piston. Nothing. We tried making a trail of Redstone dust with a lever. We pull the lever, the Redstone dust lights up but the piston does nothing? We tried both normal and sticky pistons. We tried putting a block of dirt on top of the piston, still nothing. We typically play from our iPhones, but I tried from Windows 10 MS Store version and have the same problem.

| What do we know about how NPC move choice is randomized? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 04:28 PM PST What do we know about how NPC move choice is randomized? I know we know a lot about overworld stuff like when random encounters happen... If it's the same in FireRed and LeafGreen as it is in Red/Blue/Yellow, then it's all about waiting? |
| Summoning a ring/sphere of arrows around an arrow which had just struck the ground Posted: 14 Nov 2021 05:23 PM PST I've been messing around with bows and arrows and summoning stuff when the arrow hits the ground, like lightning, but I've got an idea I do not really know where to start at. So here's the plan, I would shoot an arrow, and when it hits the ground, it would summon a sphere/ring of arrows, surrounding the original, and then also strike the original point where the original arrow is hit. There are 2 things I don't know about this. Second (not much of a problem, but it would be nice to simplify it), how would you summon arrows around the original arrow? When I was watching how to make a circle in vanilla Minecraft (by Mysticat), it summons an armor stand which turns around, summoning stuff as it does, but summoning a whole ring will take approximately 1 second, which is too much. Finally, there's the arrangement of the command blocks. This is my idea: Another chain: Is this the optimal arrangement? It might be a bit weird, but it's something I got from my previous questions, by mind overflow. (The main thing is: can you set the velocity of an arrow? This could fully well be impossible, so if it is impossible, you can tell me.) |
| Minecraft - how to distinguish Bedrock and Java editions from the box art Posted: 14 Nov 2021 10:18 PM PST I bought my son two Minecraft editions for the Playstation 4. One was "Bedrock edition" and the other just was "Starter pack". This was from the descriptions on the seller's websites, even though the box arts do not state which version is which, so now I do not know which is which. There seems to be no real difference between the box art of the two editions, except that one of the box art of one states that it is VR compatible. Otherwise both contain the words "starter pack" and both have similar descriptions on the back, but nowhere do I see the word "Bedrock" or "Java" on either edition's box art. How do I know which is which? I would ideally wish to return one of them to the supplier. My son is 8, and he is not into modding yet, but he loves playing with modded versions. He does not play competitively - just build sprawling mansions and fortresses and such. A secondary question - given what you've read above, which should I return to supplier? |
| How to make blocks appear under your feet when you walk/jump? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 06:06 PM PST Is there anyway to make blocks appear under your feet wherever you walk or jump? I there a way to make them disappear after like 20 seconds? |
| Can I transfer my trinkets from my weapons to the ones I find in the field? Posted: 15 Nov 2021 12:02 AM PST I just found a new weapon that I want to swap with my current weapon. My current weapon currently has some trinkets attached to it. Can I take my trinkets off my current weapon and transfer to the new weapon so I can keep it all? Or do I have to leave my trinkets behind? |
| Cannot get in the castle to lead Serena home Posted: 14 Nov 2021 01:17 PM PST I have successfully gotten through the gate with a glitch, but when I press the button to open the door, nothing happens and I am stuck on the other side of the gate until I eventually load my last quick save. I cannot go back to before I met her, as I did not make saves through the game and would be going back to the beginning. I just want Serena to stop following me. I can't even trade things with her or tell her to wait somewhere. |
| Are the contents of Hextech/Masterwork Chests determined at acquisition or when opened? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 02:01 PM PST If there's a skin that isn't on live servers yet, and I have several unopened chests, is it possible for me to unbox that skin once it releases to live, using boxes that I obtained before the skin release? |
| Minecraft yellow text is showing up with a symbol I can't remove Posted: 15 Nov 2021 03:06 AM PST
The symbol I'm having problems with is the one highlighted above in the red circle. My code is the following: §eRIP Jeremiah! §eOverlord of green pricks! §eI'm a grape! §eHiro is top dog! §ePromoted to regional manager! The file is saved as "splashes.txt" encoded as UTF-8-BOM in Notepad++ This symbol only shows up on the first line Subsequent lines do not have this issue If I move them all down a line then the symbol is still there, just appears on it's own Can anyone enlighten me to the problem I'm having here? |
| Posted: 14 Nov 2021 03:19 PM PST I cannot find a nether fortress in my bedrock world. I have traveled about 700 blocks on the z axis (while moving about 20 blocks to the side every 100 blocks) and I still haven't found one. I don't want to make a creative copy and just fly around until I find one and save the coordinates. What should I do? Edit: I consider things like Chunkbase cheating, I was mainly talking about a strategy instead of mindlessly wandering over the lava ocean. |
| Posted: 14 Nov 2021 05:02 PM PST I am trying to detect when a player has quit the server, I have the scoreboard to detect when a player quits: However, the rest of my command blocks only activate when the player re-joins the world. I am trying to set the player deaths to 3 when they quit: Is there any way to fix this? |
| Using Carnage to generate Rage with weapons other than the Chaoseater Posted: 15 Nov 2021 02:01 AM PST The description of the Carnage enhancement says:
I have the Tremor Gauntlet at almost the same level as my Chaoseater though, and I can't seem to get it to accumulate any Chaos. I've tried having Carnage equipped to both the Chaoseater and the Tremor Gauntlet, and in either case, I haven't been able to see any gained Chaos when either wounding or killing completely with the Tremor Gauntlet. How do I use the Carnage enhancement to gain Chaos when using the Tremor Gauntlet? |
| What is the port range for Minecraft LAN worlds? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 01:06 PM PST When I want to invite my friends over the internet into my LAN world in Minecraft, I need to set my router to forward the port specified by Minecraft. As Mincraft picks a different port each time I open my world over LAN, I have to edit my router settings every time I want to start a multiplayer LAN session over the internet. Instead, I would like to set the router to the range of port numbers that Minecraft picks from. What is the range of ports that Minecraft uses for LAN worlds? So far, after four sessions, I have had ports between 49525 and 50852. I play the Java edition, if that makes any difference. Alternatively: The port range must be coded into the Minecraft code. What file(s) would I look at to find it? |
| What is the average lifespan of witchers? Posted: 14 Nov 2021 06:17 PM PST This reddit posts suggests that Geralt's age is about 100 years. The age of Vesemir must be at least 150+ (considering the above info), because in the first episode of Hexer, Vesemir is shown as being old (must be 50+), and Geralt seems to be around 13 years old. The reason for considering Vesemir's age is that they are both mutants and their ageing rate could be changed, increased or decreased. I can't say anything about that. However, in Witcher 3 Vesemir dies at about 150 years of age. Considering Leo's case (minimum), he seems to be at about 20 years old at the time of his death. So my question is: What is the average lifespan of a witcher? Please give a good source for your answer. |
| Posted: 14 Nov 2021 01:19 PM PST In my Minecraft private survival game I've built my house in a small valley, and I'm surviving on a small wheat and watermelon farm. This is because there are no animals. There are other mobs like Creepers, but not a single pig, cow, or chicken in sight. Why are there no animals spawning? |
| What are the chances of breeding a Legendary Dragon and how can I improve them? Posted: 15 Nov 2021 02:25 AM PST I've read the Wiki page about Legendary Dragon.. But the breeding details are unclear for me:

| Posted: 14 Nov 2021 10:07 PM PST Obviously, the size of the tower matters. However, in Stronghold Kingdoms there are several tiers of castle towers to be researched, from simple wooden scaffolds to the great stone ones. Obviously, each larger tower tier is more sturdy, thus harder to destroy, and allows more archers to be stationed on the top level (from 4 on the smallest, to 25 on the great tower). But the towers also get visibly higher as they progress in size. The walls and towers give general height advantage over the attacking archers. However, is there any range difference between tower tiers, or is that hight difference is purely cosmetic? How does it play in desktop version of Stronghold franchise? |
| Are there any blocks that spiders cannot climb? Posted: 15 Nov 2021 02:24 AM PST I'm building a spider spawner exp farm, and I have everything planned out. Now the only thing is to build it. But what material should I use? Are there any blocks that a spider (either type) just cannot hold on to the sides of? My farm should function if there are none, but it would be a huge boost to convenience and efficiency if there are any such blocks. Keep in mind that this question is not the same as this question which just asks how to make your house safe from spiders. |
