City simulator games to deal with population happiness

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 11:31 AM PST

In Stronghold food, religion, monuments, ... determine population happiness. I'm looking for games with that same mechanic.

It would be great if the complexity increased with the population size. Making each stage more challenging.

How to Group undead mobs in a datapack?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 09:06 AM PST

I have this in my datapack, in a JSON file:

{    "values": [      "minecraft:drowned",      "minecraft:husk",      "minecraft:phantom",      "minecraft:skeleton",      "minecraft:skeleton_horse",      "minecraft:stray",      "minecraft:wither",      "minecraft:wither_skeleton",      "minecraft:zoglin",      "minecraft:zombie",      "minecraft:zombie_horse",      "minecraft:zombie_villager",      "minecraft:zombified_piglin"    ]  }  

The path to the file is namespace/tags/entity_types/undead.json

But when I try this:

execute at @s run effect give @e[distance=0.5..4,type=undead] instant_health 1 1  

it won't work.

Will anyone help?

Condition Zero game "HD Models" option makes no difference at all

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 03:36 AM PST

I have Condition Zero game installed using Steam. I also have Counter Strike 1.6

Both game have this option named "Enable HD Models if available:

enter image description here

But it doesn't make any change at all in Czero.

The same option in Cstrike changes the models. If you uncheck it, it uses classic models. If you check it, you see new models.


When I browsed local files in steam folder, I noticed these things:

enter image description here

enter image description here

So why I think it works for Cstrike is because there's a folder named "cstrike_hd" and it contains player models inside it (probably those are new models). If it has to use classic models, it just locates inside "cstrike" folder.

But we don't see any folder named like "czero_hd". Probably that's why Czero is using the default models as HD models and there's no way it "understands" any classic models.


However, there's a folder named "czero_downloads" though and it has this folder structure:

enter image description here

But I don't know the purpose of it.


Given all that, is it a bug in the game or it has always been like that? If yes, any way to fix it?

Personally, it doesn't make sense to me that you have the option of HD Models and it doesn't work at all.

Is it impossible to be Gold 3 without having won or drawn against an opposing team where at least 1 player was at least Gold 2?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 06:16 AM PST

I think this question is the same for csgo or valorant, but if you want I can double ask this question, 1 for each game. It'll have the same answers anyway I believe. Up to you. To avoid such closure you may assume this is csgo. (And treat 'Gold 3' as 'Gold Nova 3'.)


Question:

Is it impossible (except I guess when the game was 1st released) to be Gold 3 without having won or drawn against an opposing team where at least 1 player was (at the time) peak-ranked at least Gold 2?

More generally:

If someone, call this person Alice, has a certain rank X at time T then, among all the opponents in all the games Alice has played up to time T (excluding possible ongoing games), where the result was win or draw for Alice, at least 1 person should have at least peak-rank X-1 (as of the start of the game) right?

  • I mean I think Alice can't be, say, Gold 3 on 2022Jan01 12am and then ALL Alice's opponents in ALL Alice's games up to 2021Dec31 11:59pm (excluding a possible ongoing game that passes through 2021Dec31 11:59pm - 2021Jan01 12am), where the result was win or draw for Alice, were ALL Gold 1 or lower.

Note: If it makes a difference, then you may answer

  1. for the cases of then peak-ranked Gold 2 or higher (but may be ranked lower at the time) vs of then-ranked Gold 2 or higher (but may have been ranked higher before)

  2. for the cases of all players that Alice's team win or drew against were Gold 1 or lower vs of all players that Alice's team played against (including possibly lost against) were Gold 1 or lower

Looks like 4 possible cases total (8 if you do the 4 cases for each of the 2 games), but I don't think it really matters.

Is there a way to run a command when the player joins the SINGLEPLAYER world?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 03:01 AM PST

I'm wondering if there's a way to run a command when someone joins a Single player world, I'm a upcoming map maker and I making my first map, I have lots of experience with Redstone but never got this far before. Currently I have different modes like: Extreme Mode, Easy Mode.

Back to the point, I need to know this because I want the player to get teleported when they join, Essentially if the player played before, And is 'far' into the map to go back to the start. I'm also making the map fully customizable with the ability to make the player die when they touch a certain block, And get their spawn point set when they touch another certain block, I've been working on this for 8 hours straight. So please answer asap.

How can I create a command that gives me an effect every time I take damage?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 08:03 AM PST

I want to make a command that makes it so that every time I take damage, I get regeneration 3 until I come back to full health. I have zero knowledge of commands and coding so I'd appreciate some help.

Stuck in a lava death loop. How do I get out?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 11:05 AM PST

While in a hovercraft in Trailmakers, your character automatically saves its position. there is a bug that allows this to happen while over lava. If you die 2-3 times in a row with a vehicle, the game will spawn you without a vehicle. This can end you up in a lava death loop if you switch vehicles. I was unable to find a solution for this but I found a bug report for it. It is fixed so it will be in the next release but it is impossible to get out.

Is there a way to copy and paste on the PS4 without using the Keyboard?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 09:08 AM PST

For example, I want to copy and paste text from a message on the Browser. I can't do copy and paste because all those paragraphs are not on the PS4 Keyboard to select.

Mob with custom follow range doesn't seem to work

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 09:52 AM PST

In Minecraft Java Edition, I have made a custom mob (which is ridden by another invisible mob) using this generator: https://www.gamergeeks.nz/apps/minecraft/mob-generator , and in the Attributes tab I set the "follow range" of both to 50 blocks. In theory, this should mean that they detect and attack any player within a 50 block radius, if I'm not mistaken.

In practice, this doesn't happen. The mob doesn't attack until I'm within 10-11 blocks of it. This is the (long) command I used to summon it:

/summon minecraft:skeleton 2877 4 -235 {CustomName:'[{"text":"Suppressor unit","color":"gold"}]',CustomNameVisible:0b,Health:40,PersistenceRequired:1b,Silent:1b,HandItems:[{id:crossbow,Count:1}],ArmorItems:[{id:iron_boots,Count:1},{id:iron_leggings,Count:1},{id:netherite_chestplate,Count:1},{id:turtle_helmet,Count:1}],Attributes:[{Name:"generic.movement_speed",Base:0.09f},{Name:"generic.max_health",Base:40F},{Name:"generic.follow_range",Base:50F}],HandDropChances:[0F],ArmorDropChances:[0F,0F,0F,0F],Passengers:[{id:guardian,Health:20,PersistenceRequired:1b,ActiveEffects:[{Id:14,Amplifier:0,Duration:99999999}],Attributes:[{Name:"generic.armor"},{Name:"generic.max_health",Base:25F},{Name:"generic.attack_damage",Base:15f},{Name:"generic.follow_range",Base:50f}]}]}

The parts relating to the follow range are in bold. So, why this discrepancy? If it's an issue of the command just not working as it should, is there any possible workaround?

FORTNITE: Always a connection error on the first try

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 08:29 AM PST

Whenever I play FORTNITE (Battle Royale), it fails to join a game on the first try.

On the second try, it succeeds.

I get to the load screen, and the progress bar doesn't move.

FORTNITE load screen - progress bar stuck

Finally, after a minute or two it times out and some variation of this error message is displayed:

FORTNITE "We hit a roadblock" Connection error - Network Connection Lost

I'm playing on a Mac, so it's possible Apple is doing something to screw with FN intentionally because of their current legal battle. (This is why Save The World mode doesn't work, for example.) But if this is caused by something else, and can be fixed by changing a setting (either in FN or in macOS, I would like to resolve this.

Finally, I'm not sure if this is related, but I keep on getting item screens offering me... nothing. I have the choice to either equip this nothing, or go to the next screen. Either way, I get nothing.

FORTNITE Equip nothing

If anyone experiencing similar issues knows of a resolution, please share.

How to get/craft non-advanced colour crystals

Posted: 04 Jan 2022 10:06 PM PST

I've recently started playing SWTOR with my girlfriend (she's FTP) and I'm trying to get her a colour crystal for her lightsaber because right now she doesn't have one equipped. I've been levelling up artifice but can only seem to craft advanced crystals which she can't use...

How can I get the plain old crystals that she can use?

New MCPE update causes app to crash when loading skin

Posted: 04 Jan 2022 11:06 PM PST

I have two iPads and two iPhones, and two of the oldest ones of the iPads and one of the iPhones have not had this problem because I think they didn't get this update. The other two, however, are trying to load skins we have created and fail, crashing the game in the process. I could just delete the app and reinstall it but I'm afraid I'll have to pay for it again. How can this be fixed?

How can I disable "Screenshot Saved" notification?

Screenshot saved notification

How can I disable these notifications? I want my screenshots nice and clean!

How to lock slot interaction to armor stands?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 07:33 AM PST

I have tried all i could possibly think off , there is a tag for locking slots but it does not work, i tried locking all slots, only weapon slots but it wont work, as soon as i click the armor stand i pick up the items. Is it due to my op or game mode?

/summon armor_stand ~ ~ ~ {Invisible:1b,Invulnerable:1b,PersistenceRequired:1b,NoGravity:1b,ShowArms:1b,ArmorItems:[{},{},{},{}],HandItems:[{},{id:"iron_sword",Count:1b}],DisabledSlots:65793,Pose:{LeftArm:[271f,0f,271f]}}  

How to make mobs walk to other entities?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 08:41 AM PST

I'm in Java 1.14.4 and I'm attempting to make all rabbit entities walk to a specific tagged item if they are in the range of it.

execute as @e[type=rabbit] at @s run teleport @s @e[tag=fruit,distance=5..25,limit=1]

This command would teleport any rabbits to that specific entity, but I was looking for something where the rabbit would slowly walk up to that destination instead. Is there a way to do this?

How do I execute multiple function within another function?

Posted: 04 Jan 2022 10:00 PM PST

In Minecraft 1.13.2 Java

Previous title of this question was : What is console command to fly in creative mode? supposing an issue with 'flying'.

I want to execute multiple functions (from function files).

To be executed is a series of circle ploting in order to create a circular tower.

The code for the circle:05 function file is working as expected ingame. It clones the block from underneath the executer to plot a circle around @s then teleport @s 1 block over.

circle:05

clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-5 ~ ~0  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-4 ~ ~-3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-4 ~ ~-2  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-4 ~ ~-1  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-4 ~ ~1  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-4 ~ ~2  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-4 ~ ~3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-3 ~ ~-4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-3 ~ ~-3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-3 ~ ~3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-3 ~ ~4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-2 ~ ~-4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-2 ~ ~4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-1 ~ ~-4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~-1 ~ ~4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~0 ~ ~-5  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~0 ~ ~5  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~1 ~ ~-4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~1 ~ ~4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~2 ~ ~-4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~2 ~ ~4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~3 ~ ~-4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~3 ~ ~-3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~3 ~ ~3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~3 ~ ~4  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~4 ~ ~-3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~4 ~ ~-2  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~4 ~ ~-1  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~4 ~ ~1  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~4 ~ ~2  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~4 ~ ~3  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~5 ~ ~0  clone ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~ ~  tp ~ ~1 ~  

My problem is to execute multiple times this function (circles:05)

I tried with basic code line writing function circles:05, then execute as @s ~ ~ ~ run function circles:05 but nothing works.

maketower

execute as @s run function circles:05  execute as @s run function circles:05  execute as @s run function circles:05  execute as @s run function circles:05  

Both files are in the correct folder, available within the ingame command-line but the result is not working because @s seems to falls down on previous block after /tp.

Any clue on how to make this work / the console command to fly?

ps. Can someone with 300 reputation create tags 1.13, ability for me?

What advantages does the Water Park have over an Entertainment district?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 01:13 AM PST

The new Rise and Fall expansion for Civilization 6 adds a new district, the Water Park. It provides amenities like the Entertainment district but can only be built on coastal tiles. Given that a city cannot build both, why would I choose a Water Park which costs more to build and comes late in the game?

I hacked a bunch of peoples' bank accounts, what can I spend the money on?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 06:11 AM PST

So I walked around doing a bunch of side quests for awhile to unlock different perks. While doing so I noticed a bunch of people had bank account info stored on their phones, so being the good opportunist I am, I hacked their phones and stole it and retrieved the money after making a stop at an atm. Now I have several hundred thousand dollars and don't know what to do with the money. I have already collected most of the weapons available, and I mainly only use my silenced pistol anyways, crafting parts don't really cost much and I am constantly refilling them anyways, and who needs to buy a car when everyone just leaves cars all around the city for you to use. Is there anything I can dump this money on such as upgrading stuff, other things to buy, or hiring people to do stuff for me?

TLDR: What can I spend all this money I stole on?

Is it possible to run games in Dosbox with a better scaler / filter than the ones available in vanilla dosbox?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 03:32 AM PST

As many of you probably know, quite a few games on sites like GOG.com use Dosbox to start games which otherwise would be unplayable, due to their age. The graphics of such games (when played full screen on today's monitors) are abhorrent, of course.

For this reason, Dosbox offers to start the games with hardware acceleration (I use Direct3D), and to use a scaling engine to upscale the game to modern-day resolutions. The problem is that with most of these scaling engines, the picture becomes really small in fullscreen, since even when the picture is enlarged 3x, the resolution is too small. Dosbox offers no workaround for this (either have a very pixelated picture, or a small one).

However, then I saw videos such as this one here, where the author claims to play the game at 1920x1200 (my own resolution), with a scaling engine termed HQ6x. The game looks quite gorgeous (if slightly cartoony). Problem is, in vanilla Dosbox, the highest scaler you get is HQ3x, and I couldn't find any scalers higher than that to download and easily install into Dosbox

Even after an hour of googling, I turned up empty. Is it possible to download, install and use a better scaling engine than what is available in vanilla dosbox, and if so, how?

Is there a way to get a free house in skyrim?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 03:18 AM PST

I love to play Skyrim, but I am broke. I can't seem to get enough money for the cheapest one I know of, the one In Whiterun. Does anyone know of a cheaper one or a way I can get a free one?

Would I need a hacked PSP to run custom translation patches?

Posted: 05 Jan 2022 06:06 AM PST

There's currently work being done for the Puela Magi Madoka Magica PSP Game to have an English translation. It's still not done yet. However, in general, if a Japanese PSP game had an English patch for it, would I need a hacked PSP?
