[full wing]

ok so i need feed back

im getting this game called wreckfest, and was wondering if my laptop could run it? i have an acer aspire 3, amd ryzen 5 2500 and amd vega graphics

i have the link to the game, i cant send links so if you want it to look at the game, dm me

[willow pecan]

@full wing looks like it, just comparing system requirements, you'll be fine compared to minimum, recommended might be a stretch for the vega

but you can probably do 720p high, maybe 1080p low/medium

[full wing]

@full wing looks like it, just comparing system requirements, you'll be fine compared to minimum, recommended might be a stretch for the vega
@willow pecan alright thanks!

[wise bison]

Why does the color change on one monitor when I start a game on the other monitor? certain setting?

[mighty pine]

Ok so I just bought R6S through Epic Games, and now when I try to launch it. I am prompted with a CD key? what is this.

[onyx grove]

eww

buy it through steam

[mighty pine]

welp it's cheaper on epic games LOL

$7 compared to $20

[onyx grove]

wait for steam sale

also, i have no idea about your issue

try refunding it and re buying it

i guess

[celest wren]

try this idk if it will work

https://support.fanatical.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000768738-UPlay-game-prompts-for-CD-key-on-starting

[onyx grove]

ooo

nice find

[celest wren]

Thanks

So i guess download uplay and follow the steps there

[mighty pine]

it says i have 0 games...

what is this xd

[celest wren]

Did u sign in with the same account info as epic

https://support.ubisoft.com/en-GB/Faqs/000045787/Linking-your-Epic-Games-and-Ubisoft-accounts?isSso=true&refreshStatus=noLoginData

[mighty pine]

i think so

yeh still nothing

i relogged

[celest wren]

Hm

one sec

[onyx grove]

it might take epic games a while to get the game into your ubi account

[mighty pine]

yeh i did the linking process earlier

[onyx grove]

could just be a processing delay

[mighty pine]

it's been an hour lol it was downloading like 80gb

[onyx grove]

yeah, thats through steam servers

but authentication to launch the game is done through uplay

[mighty pine]

hmm

[celest wren]

Yeah i’m not sure, sorry 😔

[mighty pine]

I even got an email saying I linked them 😭😭😭

[celest wren]

Yeah like SassyFish said maybe it is a processing delay, but rn you can check uplay again to see if it is there now

[mighty pine]

Nope

[manic mural]

[halcyon fossil]

yea it's a virus

[misty tulip]

Nah i use it to temp change some values in a few different programs and I had no issues

[glad urchin]

Bruh the valorant ranking system is so bad. I went 23-9 in a gold 1 comp match, we also won 13-7. All it says is "rating heavily increased"

And the last one i played my rated increased slightly too

[halcyon fossil]

it is bad

[calm reef]

Well yes, cheat engine is technically a virus to games

tho if it is the official cheat engine it doesn’t harm your pc

[halcyon fossil]

it is a virus

[rustic vigil]

Don’t cheat
only in single player modes

tho if it is the official cheat engine it doesn’t harm your pc
ya I just wanted to make sure since it triggered a bunch on virustotal
the issue is their installer that comes bundled with crapwares which have become increasingly hidden apparently with their newer releases

I ended up just getting their rar file, no craps

[calm reef]

most of the time what is detected as virus is their debuggers and the name itself

check this

and this

[brave dome]

thx man so you do have to hook it you to play steam or its better hooked up when play steam games

[halcyon fossil]

if you wanna play PC games, you need to connect to computer

i recommend connecting to a computer anyways if your PC is powerful enough

that way if you upgrade your headset you can still play your games

[brave dome]

ok thx you really helping me figer out witch one to do

[halcyon fossil]

sure

and if you have any more questions, feel free to ask

[brave dome]

thx ive been trying to desid because i like the wireless of quest but i also like the selctoin of games on steam

[halcyon fossil]

you can connect the quest to the PC

so for example

you can buy Beat Saber on Oculus, play that wirelessly, and buy Boneworks or Half Life Alyx on Steam and connect it to the PC for that

[brave dome]

i heard you can get vertaly desktop and play wirelessly on steam or is that not the best idea

[halcyon fossil]

it doesnt work reliably

i wouldnt buy the headset with plans of using that

you could always test it with a free game and see if it works

[brave dome]

ok thx i think the quest probly be my best bet eather way i dont realy have room for the cammras then dogs that like cables

[keen dome]

Quest or rift s

[onyx grove]

@halcyon fossil

[halcyon fossil]

Oculus Quest - entry level vr, great if you dont have a computer, okay if you do (its a standalone headset and does not require a PC but you can connect it to the PC if you want for PC VR games with better graphics or simply games that arent available on the Quest)
Cons - Audio isnt great, fixable by plugging in your own headphones, and comfort isnt great since its a bit front heavy. Also it only runs at 72hz when 90 is the industry standard.
Pros - cheap at just $400 for the 64gb model, doesnt require a PC, very comfortable and capable controllers

[onyx grove]

oh, its pinned

[halcyon fossil]

ugh i didnt write anything for the rift s

[onyx grove]

srry 4 ping

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sv1Hgfuhm6_i0wOIHTmPHRxmO0mpO7DjvU3T4XVyUFU/edit?usp=sharing

[onyx grove]

oh, thats not pinned tho

[halcyon fossil]

just get a quest

[full wing]

Ok

[halcyon fossil]

it can connect to the PC anyways

[full wing]

I wish it had 144 hz so bad

And better fov

[halcyon fossil]

only get that with some pimax headset or a index

moneeeeyeeeeyeyyy

[full wing]

Index is not good value

[full wing]

i bought the index because its the only one I really could find that I liked

[calm reef]

not best value but best on the consumer market

[full wing]

I like it but it has its quirks

You ever get bored of Minecraft? Play with friends.
You ever get bored of playing with your friends? Download a super fun mod pack. Like rlcraft
You ever get bored of the modpack? Play it with some friends.
If you’re friends get boring, repeat step 2.

[manic mural]

I got bored of rlcraft with friends

And I don't like playing modpacks solo

Even more boring

[gilded lion]

Repeat step 2

Maybe do some servers idk

[glad urchin]

Ya sure, thats definitely the ONLY reason

They want to make their entire own virtual society where they're the boss lmao

[onyx grove]

genuinely wouldnt surprise me

[halcyon fossil]

i mean... facebook owns oculus ¯_(ツ)_/¯

and like they said

features will be greatly limited, not fully removed

i suspect you will still be able to connect to steam vr and play that way

[raven flame]

Glad I registered before that

[halcyon fossil]

also idk why people are so quick to ditch oculus

thats happening in 2023

2022*

still pretty far away

[onyx grove]

the headset gonna break before then smh

just use it till it breaks, or resell it in 2022 to get a non oculus one

or, just link a facebook account?

[knotty leaf]

Yall don't know what a boycott is

Refusing to use or purchase goods or services because you disagree with the ideals of a company or their business practices

I won't touch facebook because they're corrupt as hell and their security makes McAfee look like something the CIA would use by comparison

[halcyon fossil]

they mention still being able to play games you purchased which basically means steamvr will still work since its openvr based

and its all happening january 1st 2023

idk

[onyx grove]

in that case

boycotts are worthless

billion dollar cooperation
"oh noes, 0.001% of our users don't like our business practices"
billion dollar cooperation makes more billions of dollars
mfw.png

[knotty leaf]

Bruh
If you're boycotting something, you don't become a user in the first place

And yea, I'm sure the multi-billion dollar lawsuits that they're gonna be hit with by the US government won't do anything to them at all whatsoever

[onyx grove]

so, you dont care about their products in the first place, then you actively make an effort to avoid them and tell everyone that, even though it takes no effort on your part to do so

thats just sounds like an attention wh***

boycotting a place like chick fil a means you used to eat there, and now you dont

ez

[warm belfry]

boycotts dont work unless you get a majority of customers

[onyx grove]

laughs in billions of dollars in earnings next quarter

[knotty leaf]

Yeah, call me whatever dumb slurs you want. I'm sure Newegg, the company with religious iconography banned on their website, will be very happy with it.

anyone here know if they're gonna restock on the Zephyrus G14 RTX 2060? They have the price for $500 cheaper than literally everywhere else and im getting anxious to cop as school's starting soon :((

[halcyon fossil]

i rarely see it in stock at newegg

best buy has it frequently though @native beacon

thats where my brother got his

best buy kinda sucks... but if they have it in stock ¯_(ツ)_/¯

What’s a good cheap game series to play on steam?

[raven flame]

[full wing]

Mkay then

[warm belfry]

kinda p2w tho

[native beacon]

@halcyon fossil ordered the 1660ti version off of best buy but newegg's price of 2k for the RTX 2060 model is obviously the ideal situation haha

[halcyon fossil]

we got the 2060 one at bestbuy for $1500

wait

im in the US

[native beacon]

oh wait LOL i probably shouldve mentioned im in Canada oopsie mb

you americans and your much nicer price points :((

[halcyon fossil]

i mean

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[native beacon]

customs tho

and shipping and all that jazz

also best buy doesnt have international warranty

the 2060 retails for 2500 CAD here

[halcyon fossil]

oh jeez

[native beacon]

yuh

it's gross

[calm reef]

Ehh what

2060 costing more than 2080 ti

@calm reef what

[mint eagle]

So I need to extend my Rift S by about 3m. I'm going to order the USB expansion card that Oculus recommends, as I'm having issues with my passive 3m USB cable.

As for DisplayPort, I haven't had much luck without using an active repeater. Is there anything I can do?

I've tried a 3m DP1.4 male-male cable (with coupler), and a 5m fiber DP1.4 cable (with the same coupler).

For both I got no signal until I swapped the coupler for an active powered repeater.

Is there anything I could try to avoid having to use a repeater?

Going to order this one, however it's only available in Amazon.com (whereas I live in France), so shipping will be $15 + $5 Baguette import fee... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L1K1KDE

Looks like I can't do a return for international shipping, in the case this cable doesn't work, like all other cables I've tried.

[full wing]

you have to use a repeater for something like this

[mint eagle]

Why?

[full wing]

i wish i knew

its why I haven't extended mine

[mint eagle]

oof

[full wing]

yeah but I have an index

[mint eagle]

ah

[full wing]

hows performance for the 1660S on Vr?

[mint eagle]

I hear index is even more painful to extend.

Really good decent.

[full wing]

tbh the only two ill need to extend is usb and display port

[mint eagle]

Beat Saber runs at full speed, Budget Cuts too

[full wing]

theres seperate power but thats crazy long

yeah ive only used a 1080 and 2070s to play VR

[mint eagle]

I haven't had great performance in Alyx but I'm suspecting it's due to SteamVR, which always causes lag for me.

Separating Beat Saber/Budget Cuts from SteamVR fixed the issues I was having with it switching to 45fps and just general horrible lag.

IDK if Alyx can do that tho, haven't tried.

[full wing]

thats cool

i havent played alyx since I got the headset

so 2 months now

lol

[mint eagle]

Doesn't it come with Alyx?

[full wing]

yep

june 13

is the last time I played

[mint eagle]

You should try Alyx. I hear it's really good.

[full wing]

tbh I wish i didnt buy this headset

i use it like once a week

[mint eagle]

Really? Why?

oof

I play Beat Saber every day.

[full wing]

all they really care about is revenue by now

it is throwing fits about loading some of my older vanilla games, trying to fix that. Because i have examples of what we are talking about :)

[manic mural]

Yea it wants you to convert stuff

[burnt atlas]

nah, that is not my problem

its age of the saves

[manic mural]

but anyways all that is is 2 blue belts of iron

yea

[burnt atlas]

they are ancient

[manic mural]

the game itself wants to convert stuff

[burnt atlas]

as in, early 0.17

aye, i know about the conversions, and i know how those errors look

those are not the ones i am getting :)

[manic mural]

this kinda fit eh

[burnt atlas]

the following is a OLD save. so keep that in mind

[manic mural]

I played like half an year ago, but I ain't like a veteran

[manic mural]

damn that looks nice

I wish I built like that

[burnt atlas]

that is a coal to plastic conversion setup.

and based on what i vaguely remember, that is the contained version.

[silent valve]

yea that bottom image of the 2 from Nead is what a main bus is

[digital mural]

:(

[drifting hound]

Does anyone here have a vr headset? I don't have one but I am thinking about possibly saving up for one, but I would get the quest because I don't have a PC right now

[warm belfry]

@halcyon fossil

[split pivot]

@drifting hound ye i have oculus rift

[drifting hound]

Nice, do you prefer vr gaming to PC gaming?

[manic mural]

doood

sooo many beacons

[burnt atlas]

:)

looking like a mighty fine start to a spaghetti base Forks :)

[split pivot]

@drifting hound yes it is fun

[raven flame]

Ya, I've been playing through the campaign

[burnt atlas]

i still need to have a look at the updated one

[raven flame]

That setup was hard to scale

[burnt atlas]

guessing you started playing after 1.0 laucned Forks?

[raven flame]

A week ago

[burnt atlas]

aye

i know they reworked the campaign to some extent, so i am curious about that

[raven flame]

I accidentally blew up my car when I was about to leave

Gotta make another 200 solar panels

😩

[burnt atlas]

hehehe :D

[manic mural]

IK I did this horribly but it's lowkey really fun to try and figure out how to route the pipes :D

[burnt atlas]

there is not really a "wrong" way

as long as it works for you, it is right

[manic mural]

but it's soooo fun trying to figure it out how to make sure everything is connected

idek why

[burnt atlas]

:)

[manic mural]

as you can tell with my base, as long as it works, it works :D

I'm being really lazy rn and relying on my logistics system a lot

[burnt atlas]

:)

also, keep in mind, the screenshots i showed earlier was for a fairly specific goal that required a fairly silly amount of throughput

[manic mural]

lol fair enough

How to get from point A to point B? BOTS OFC

[burnt atlas]

hehe :)

[manic mural]

BTW, have you tried to mess with the spidertron yet? I really want to have some fun with it :D

[burnt atlas]

not yet. Dont want to jerryrig any of the old bases

want to make a new base and go from there

[manic mural]

fair enough

I'm jerryrigging everything, as I normally do :D

I used to have a concrete yellow science production thing

but the recipe changed

so now all the materials are delievered by bots, since I had all 3 in my logistics system anyways

it was pretty funny when I realised I had 2400 flying robot frames

in my logistics system

just sitting around

I still do

[burnt atlas]

:)

btw, the advantage of a mainbus is that when receipes change, you can quite easily fix that.

because you just tap a different set of belts and things will work "okay-ish"

[manic mural]

advantage of bots : Change requester chest, done

slow tho

anyways, doubled my low density production now

need it for many things

[burnt atlas]

hehe, that hurts to look at thou :P

[manic mural]

why's that Naed

This is the only nice thing in my base :(

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas I just went, hmm my old one line of coal is dying up, lemme get some coal production going

most efficient thing you've ever seen for 1 belt of coal

aw shoot I ran out of copper

[tame cobalt]

Just buy more lol

👀

[manic mural]

Automation

@tame cobalt I've been setting up my new copper production

[tame cobalt]

Very nice 👍

[burnt atlas]

argh! it might not be wrong @manic mural but it still hurts to watch :)

[burnt atlas]

well done :)

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas the spidertron is bloody amazing

you gotta try it at some point

it eats through rockets like crazy tho

[burnt atlas]

its 4 rocket launchers, so that makes sense :)

and the plan is to start up a base this friday when i get back from the gig i am going on tomorrow

[manic mural]

I mean they put a ton of work into this thing! Look at the pathfinding and physics! Each leg seems to have it's own pathfinding, and when walking around in your base, it makes sure to not step over anything and break anything! @burnt atlas

Also remote control destruction

also remote roboport

It's bloody amazing

[burnt atlas]

you know that legs work in it right?

[manic mural]

I just love the legs

[delicate epoch]

What game is this?

[manic mural]

Factorio

[burnt atlas]

@manic mural could you paste the map gen string for your game?

or are you "just" on a default minus expansion of biters world?

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas I don't remember lol, created this world years ago, I'll grab the map gen string this afternoon, just to make sure, I can check the string when I load up the map right?

[burnt atlas]

aye

[manic mural]

I think I have biter expansion on actually

[burnt atlas]

upper right of the load screen iirc

and no rush

[manic mural]

Keep having annoying attacks in the south :(

[burnt atlas]

i am just curious about things

look at your polution

[manic mural]

Yea I did

[burnt atlas]

just expand out past your polution

[manic mural]

Wipes out the colony that was attacking

[burnt atlas]

as in, clear out biters in the polution

[manic mural]

Using the spidertron :D

Well it was really damn annoying because I'm an idiot, and when I was remaking blue circuit production, accidentally broke my Power line to the south

So they were defenseless

And I had to fix things :(

[burnt atlas]

"smart"

looks like i will be starting the factorio game today

weather has made the gig move around

[manic mural]

Hitman free :
https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/product/hitman/standard-edition

[burnt atlas]

shadowrun collection is also free

[calm reef]

thank you for reminding me

lol

[burnt atlas]

which is the more interesting one :)

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas I'm also extremely smart because for the past year, my nuclear reactor was running at like half efficiency, as like 16/33 turbines weren't wired up lol

[burnt atlas]

"smart"

[manic mural]

So my nuclear power production was like 160mw max when it should've been like 200mw

Ima make another nuclear power plant for me tho

I have like 4k uranium 235 in storage

[burnt atlas]

eh? 200?

two reactors that are touching will produce 160.

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas I have 2 reactors that are touching connected up to like 23 turbines or something

[burnt atlas]

max power from that is 160

[manic mural]

Fair enough

Guess I meant to say I was making 120 and could've made 160

I'll have to check

[burnt atlas]

no worries :)

1 reactor = 40
neighbour bonus = 100%
so, 2 reactors = 160

[manic mural]

I'm using the heat exchangers into steam power into turbine thing

Not sure if that's how you're supposed to do it

And I think 2 turbine per heat exchanger

[burnt atlas]

aye, 2 turbines per heatexchanger

[manic mural]

Fair nuff

I thought I saw my turbines produce like 180mw but I could've been mistaken

[burnt atlas]

they shouldnt :)

[manic mural]

I also do have turbines in the south working with coal burning so

I was going to make a large power plant to the south but gave up bc concrete was annoying

[burnt atlas]

aye, you can click on the nuclear in the power overview window

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas wait what? It only shows the exact source for stuff for me, (not on factorio right now), can you show me?

[burnt atlas]

will show when i open it up a bit later, that alright?

[manic mural]

Alright

I'll see it when I get on in like 3 hours anyways

[burnt atlas]

aye aye :)

[ripe carbon]

So uh. Anyone know any crash fixes for MFS2020?

It worked fine last week. This week it crashes on flight start

Im so confused

I even cleaned up my drives and made space. I did the rolling cache and manual cache. I tried running in administrator. Checked my drivers. Turned off real time anti-virus scanning.

I just feel defeated. Like I wasted my munny

I removed all my input peripherals other than keyboard and mouse too

I don't even know anymore

[manic mural]

@ripe carbon bsod or just game crash?

[ripe carbon]

Crash to desktop

[manic mural]

You got MSI afterburner? Could run that and review the logs to see if any hardware-side faults

[ripe carbon]

Oh god I hope its not hardware

I dont have MSI afterburner but I could try it

[manic mural]

It's good to check just in case say for some reason your gpu temps goes to 100c or smth crazy

[ripe carbon]

Its working now for some ungodly reason

It'll probably crash in the next 10 minutes

Im so confused

It looks beautiful doe

[burnt atlas]

@ripe carbon you got the streaming data turned on?

[ripe carbon]

Rolling cache?

Yes its now set at 40 gib

Unless you mean cloud data for terrain etc yes

[burnt atlas]

i mean, the "get terrain data from the cloud etc" setting

[ripe carbon]

Yeah

[burnt atlas]

that might have been the reason. Keep in mind, this is just speculation: But IF their servers are having trouble... it would stand to reason that things might go wrong

[ripe carbon]

May be

[burnt atlas]

because, as you said, it was on flight start

which is when it would in theory start working on that

[halcyon fossil]

me with beat saber

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas got it

[burnt atlas]

ah, will look shortly, am currently having a look at the tutorial (am curious how it has evolved)

[manic mural]

also

How do I check just nuclear?

[burnt atlas]

hm, that is my mistake. Let me check after this tutorial level :)

[burnt atlas]

hm, i remembered wrong @manic mural

i was quite certain there was a direct read on that number

there is that one however

btw

[manic mural]

damn naed

gj

[burnt atlas]

and yeah, sorry about the nuclear

the simplest way is to look at each reactor. and as you can see above, it will show the number for each individual reactor

btw @manic mural i just had a look at your map seed

you do have expansion on, but the timer is maxed on it

so it only happens once per hour OR at the latest once after 3 hours

and you have disabled evolution

so the biters are trivial

[manic mural]

[burnt atlas]

:)

its moving ahead :)

[manic mural]

oh ok

that's weird

[burnt atlas]

at least that is what it tells me about your map seed when i import it here

[manic mural]

well I don't remember what I did when I started this like a year ago

so yea

makes sense

[burnt atlas]

BUT, if it is a really really old game, things can easily be "broken"

[manic mural]

prob

[burnt atlas]

btw

IF you have a spawn like that on a new map? just dont.

[manic mural]

???

@burnt atlas why's that?

[burnt atlas]

the overlap is horrible for output

when i get my first base setup, i will show you what i mean by that

[manic mural]

I see

yea I think I had a pretty good start with mine

this was how it looked when I started

Upgrade time :D

[burnt atlas]

:)

[burnt atlas]

@manic mural

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas what about it?

[burnt atlas]

you asked why i commented like i did about your mining setup the other day

[manic mural]

oh

I see

ya doing it now

[burnt atlas]

its a much more condensed way of doing mining, meaning more output from a given field

and yes, it costs extra and is not really viable for the absolute start

but very soon after, it is

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas building up copper, you happy now? :D

[burnt atlas]

aye :D

[manic mural]

gonna wait in discord for my conveyor belts to come via drones

[burnt atlas]

:)

[manic mural]

Fast asf loading :D

[burnt atlas]

by far, the nicest upgrade to the game since i last played is the use blueprints (in a sensible way) from the map view

[manic mural]

ima chill in special voice chat streaming

[burnt atlas]

got your headset on @manic mural ?

[manic mural]

nah

Ima be semi-afk playing this

got some hw to do while chilling and playing

[burnt atlas]

the above is a loader

[manic mural]

ehm

[burnt atlas]

the following is an unloader

[manic mural]

oh fun hmm

[burnt atlas]

want the string for the unloader?

[manic mural]

string?

[burnt atlas]

blueprint string for the above

thats the string for it

you can open the txt and just copy all of it, and then import it in factorio

[manic mural]

how to import :(

cannot find place

[burnt atlas]

just go into a book

see the red icon

there you go :)

its in your inventory

btw, you can safely ignore the wires, they are for something you are not doing currently :)

you are missing a stack inserter on the set furthest away from the station

at the top

ah, you might want a 4 to X balancer

hahaha, gotta LOVE that roboport network you got there @manic mural

[manic mural]

its too good right

[burnt atlas]

aye, totally NOT a long very thin string or anything

it does load from its inventory like the car/tank does right?

[manic mural]

?

[burnt atlas]

the car will load ammo from the inventory IF there is spare there

(or at least it used to)

as in, the inventory of the car

[manic mural]

lets test it

[burnt atlas]

and no, you cannot load from a box into the spidertron

[manic mural]

doesn't look like it

oh wait it does

[burnt atlas]

the car loads when it runs dry in the gun inventory

[manic mural]

just pulled 200 up there

[burnt atlas]

aye

so they retained that

[manic mural]

time to deal with iron production :(

[burnt atlas]

btw, could you show me your research labs?

also, you do know ctrl+c/v works right?

[manic mural]

yea

too lazy to :P

[burnt atlas]

could you show me your research labs in the map view?

[manic mural]

ohhh labs

thought you asked for Research tab xD

[burnt atlas]

do yourself a MASSIVE favour, put the brown modules (productivity in them) in them

[manic mural]

I automated speed so I slapped speed in everything

I'll do that

[burnt atlas]

yes, your research becomes slower (but that can be fixed with beacons) but productivity makes you use WAY less resources

lvl 3 modules are worth it

[manic mural]

ugh

this iron mine

I don't want an odd amount of belts

:(

[burnt atlas]

you are on blue belts right?

[manic mural]

I'll take either 4 or 2

yea

[burnt atlas]

you can easily combine the 2 outside ones without a problem

[manic mural]

like that?

[burnt atlas]

thats one way, yeah :)

that is another

obviously with a lane balancer attached to the splitter

[manic mural]

How many furnace per line if I'm doing 4 lines?

[burnt atlas]

you mean for smelting?

[manic mural]

ya

[burnt atlas]

or you mean miners?

2sec. i dont have that number in my head, but i know i have a blueprint that answers it

yellow belt is 48 stone furnaces

[manic mural]

if I started copying this

[burnt atlas]

your stream aint showing for me.

[manic mural]

?

can you not see the blueprint?

[burnt atlas]

its just endlessly buffering

[manic mural]

riiip

[burnt atlas]

rejoining now

[manic mural]

I am pushing the school laptop to it's limits lol

uhd620

[raven flame]

Can you save hotbars between plays?

[burnt atlas]

Sadly no

[manic mural]

Like between logging on yes, between worlds no

[burnt atlas]

its save specific info

stream is showing for me again. So ask your question ?

[manic mural]

hmm

is this gonna overvlow just 2 iron belts?

belts of iron

ima find the midpoint and split off

[burnt atlas]

you dont have to split to the side

you can run it on the inside between the stack inserters if you want

[manic mural]

too much underground belts :P

I have like 100 underground belts in storage and like 1000 normal belts

[burnt atlas]

red belt = 48 steel furnaces

so in theory, its 72 for blue belt

this will be easier to answer when i get there myself :)

[manic mural]

Can you send me the importer blueprint?

[burnt atlas]

unloader?

or loader?

[manic mural]

loader

[burnt atlas]

give me a moment

[manic mural]

once that's done

I have my Copper AND Iron production working :D

also how does having multiple trains on the same track work?

[burnt atlas]

that blueprint contains a LOT of extra stuff, but it is easier for you to deal with cleaning that out

again, dont worry about the wires

you have a BP @manic mural

re: having multiple trains on the same track: Signals.

the built in tutorial is actually decent for explaining it (trains and signals)

the tutorials are in the upper right

you could just edit the bp

and remove the rail from it

btw, want to know a trick for cleaning out like that?

@manic mural

right click a deconstruction blueprint

and add rail to the "remove" list

[manic mural]

welp im gonna un-screw my production rq

[burnt atlas]

:)

if you have time this weekend we can take a chat about the rails and signals

[manic mural]

I'll try not to bother you and read up on it myself :D

I love ma drones

[burnt atlas]

having trouble with the nuclear?

[manic mural]

@burnt atlas got off for the night, dunno what was going on with my nuclear power bc the max produced bar or whatever was being funky

and it looked like I didn't give it enough water

but fixed that

[burnt atlas]

fair :)

I buy pc from new egg why don’t work !

Doesn’t*

How

Ok ty ❤️

click the name and send them a message :)

[sick jungle]

I know

[calm reef]

I’m so bad at Pac-Man

[burnt atlas]

well, there are no numbers for you to bite into

so its no wonder you cannot pull ahead :P

[manic mural]

Lol

Every time Naed sees ghost he's gonna mention drooling on a number

[burnt atlas]

no, i would never do that.

going to move screenshot dumping down here @manic mural

its disjointed, but it is a start

[manic mural]

Lol

[burnt atlas]

all the electrical lines that go out are from me killing biter bases

and then just dragging power with me while i am out there anyway

[manic mural]

How does electrical lines do that

[burnt atlas]

the blue lines?

[manic mural]

How does bringing electricit out help kill biters

[burnt atlas]

it doesnt help, but i might as well bring it out

[manic mural]

Ah

[burnt atlas]

because i know i will be expanding out there

and this is a death rail world

[manic mural]

?

[burnt atlas]

so, biters take a while to kill here in the start

[manic mural]

Death rail world?

[burnt atlas]

death world is a preset for map gen

rail world is also a preset for mapgen

the two merged = death rail world

rail world makes patches less common, but bigger

death world makes biter something you need to think about and worry about

at least in the start until you get a solid defense

does that explain it?

[manic mural]

Ya

[calm reef]

@manic mural how many turbines per reactor?

[manic mural]

18 I think, don't remember

[burnt atlas]

finally free of the biters inside the pollution

[lost zinc]

Hello My Friends. I asking for recommendations and assistance on a desk too build specifically to handle #FlightSimulator2020. I want an in expensive build, but a quality build. Or would it be cheaper to buy a pre-built desktop. If so, what would you guys recommend. This computer will be solely dedicated as a simulator for flight. Thanks in advance

[burnt atlas]

@lost zinc i would recommend posting that, together with a budget in #building-and-recc-chat

[lost zinc]

👍

[full wing]

i need some help with valorant, i've manually gone into windows defender firewall to trust both valorant and vanguard but that didn't work. I have gt 545's so i went and downloaded the newest drivers that i could from nvidia and that didn't work either. I've run as administrator and i've also restarted my pc multiple times(power button on and off). Do i just have to delete and reinstall the game?

[manic raven]

dont frick with val

just play csgo

[full wing]

i prefer val over csgo i dunno why

[manic raven]

try reinstalling the game

should work

also if you have game capture or something try playing with out that

as the anti cheat may think that that is bad

@lost zinc never buy a prebuilt

just never

[lost zinc]

Got it👍🏿

[manic raven]

you also might wanna wait until the 3000 series cards come out

they should be better equipped to run ms flight sim

[lost zinc]

ok, and this is the Graphics card your speaking of

[manic raven]

get a 3090 if you have the budget

obviously not out yet

but its gonna cost around 1000 bucks

give or take

[lost zinc]

ok

[manic raven]

go to #building-and-recc-chat

a lot more people check there

for people who need help building

[lost zinc]

i have a chat going on there as well

[manic raven]

oh ok
