How should I take duration into account for trade routes?

Posted: 18 Jan 2022 12:34 PM PST

The title says it. When creating a trade route, there's a "duration" (I think) next to a clock to the right of the name of the city. How does this affect game play?

I looked at https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/Trade_Route_(Civ6) but did not really understand it.

Teleporter pad command Minecraft

Posted: 18 Jan 2022 11:25 AM PST

I am new to command blocks, and was wondering if a block in the floor topped with a pressure plate and coded with this code would work as a teleporter between tower floors, where the player just walks on it and clicks which floor name to go to for compact teleporting:

scoreboard players enable @a question   /tellraw @a ["",{"text":"Where to?"  ,"color":"gold","bold":"true"},{"text":"LOCATION NAME1","color":"green","bold":"true","clickEvent":{"action":"run_command","value":"/trigger question set 1"}},{"text":"LOCATION NAME2","color":"none","bold":"true","clickEvent":{"action":"run_command","value":"/trigger question set 2"}},{"text":"LOCATION NAME3","color":"red","bold":"true","clickEvent":{"action":"run_command","value":"/trigger question set 3"}}]   execute @a[score_question=1] /tp @p × × ×  execute @a[score_question_min=2] /tp @p × × ×  execute @a[score_question_min=3] /tp @p × × ×

Does the Archivist actually delete my file if its card dies?

Posted: 17 Jan 2022 07:17 PM PST

During my fight with the The Archivist, they asked me to to select the oldest file saved on my computer. The Archivist turned my file into a card and said it would be deleted if the card died. I won the fight without my card dying, so I never found out:

Would The Archivist have actually deleted my file if the card was destroyed?

"For, if this card dies, I will delete the file from your disk."

Extend redstone signal maintaining signal strength

Posted: 18 Jan 2022 10:20 AM PST

I'm trying to build an archery range with targets of varying distances. When you shoot one of the targets the signal travels through the ground to the very back of the range. At the back there's a high wall with redstone lamps at the top to indicate how accurate your shot is. I am wondering how do I extend the redstone signal to reach the back wall and maintain signal strength.

For example, if I shoot a target which produces a signal strength of 4, I want the signal to travel x distance to then light up 4 redstone lamps.

How many Xbox/Microsoft accounts can share their games on a single Xbox Series console?

Posted: 17 Jan 2022 07:32 PM PST

My Xbox Series console is set as my home console in my main Microsoft/Xbox account, which has lots of games. My sister signs into her own Xbox/Microsoft account on the same console and plays the games that I have the license for.

Now my question is, if she owns and buys games in her own Microsoft/Xbox account, can I play those games as well?

Can 2 people (Xbox/Microsoft accounts) set the same Xbox Series console as their home consoles so that they can share games with each other?

On Minecraft Bedrock Edition, how do I make it so people can't build at spawn?

Posted: 18 Jan 2022 07:32 AM PST

Does it make sense to shoot Armor with SuperFormance slugs?

Posted: 18 Jan 2022 10:55 AM PST

According to the wiki, SuperFormance slugs deal a whopping 220 damage, which should be way more than necessary to kill a player with a shot to the chest.

However, the round has an armor penetration value of 5, which is basically non-existent (for comparison, 7.62x32 PS has an AP value of 32), and an armor damage percentage of 12%.

As far as I am aware, that means the potential armor damage from SuperFormance slugs is 0.6 damage, which would be rounded to 1 damage.

Is this calculation correct? Does this mean that shooting armor with SuperFormance slugs essentially means no damage to the player or their armor?

How can I tell my Minecraft users which mods they need?

Posted: 17 Jan 2022 04:58 PM PST

I'm hosting a Minecraft server that gets updated from time to time. I'd like to make it easy for players to know which mods they will need to play without requiring me to communicate with them outside of Minecraft. This info would be good for new players, as well as regular players who need to be informed that a new mod has been added to the server. Currently, if a player is missing a mod in their client, they will see a generic error message.

Is there a way to inform users in-game which mods they will need?

One idea I have is to put a web address on the game screen they see before joining, and then keep that web page updated, but that seems clunky. I know that players can be given the option to download Resource Packs, but as far as I know, this kind of this isn't available for mods.

How to find a specific slime chunk pattern in Bedrock?

Posted: 17 Jan 2022 05:03 PM PST

I'm playing Bedrock Edition and I want a specific pattern of slime chunks in my world. I don't know how to do it. In Bedrock, slime chunks are predefined for a set of coordinate. Is there any apps?

How does Pistons priority work?

Posted: 17 Jan 2022 06:00 PM PST

I have two pistons facing each other. Powering both at the same time from the side can give different results based on where it is being powered from. I have absolutly no clue on the pattern and how to use it.

How does it work? Here is an example of an experiment:

enter image description here

enter image description here

As you can see, the center pistons are biased based on the side as well as the right one. The left one will have the same bias regardless of side powered.

I decided to make more tests and here are the results: enter image description here

Each line is a pair of pistons. There are two rows of experiments. The block above shows which side he is biased towards. Orange (Granite) means powered from the left side and Gray (Andesite) is powered from the right.

For example, the top left most (first red stroke in next pic) has both blocks on top of each other, meaning regardless of side, the piston closer to the camera is powered.

enter image description here

The three pistons from picture 1 one and 2 highlighted

And here is the question:
How does this rule works? With all this experiment I got 0 answers. My goal is to have the far most piston from the source (Torch in case of pic 1 and 2) be activated first, always.

Posted: 18 Jan 2022 11:07 AM PST

How do I get back a lost PG3D account using Game Center on IOS?

Posted: 17 Jan 2022 08:22 PM PST

My brother had a problem where he accidentally switched his account in the game pixel gun 3d. He uses Game Center on iOS 14 iPad. He switched it to his noob account, and he can't switch it back because the "switch account progress" option won't pop up. It will appear with two icons, one with a mutant (his pro account) and one with a soldier (his noob account). Currently he is in his noob account. So how do I help him change his account back? If you don't know, maybe someone can tell me how to make the "switch account progress" option pop up again.

Does a flash drive give better performance than a hard drive for games on a Xbox 360?

Posted: 18 Jan 2022 11:06 AM PST

Since you can install games on a flash drive on an Xbox 360, and flash drives generally have faster random reads than hard drives, would it give Xbox 360 games better performance by installing them to a (fast) flash drive instead of the traditional mechanical hard drive?
