title: What is the best ammo strategy to use in Resident Evil 4 in Professional mode?

text: When RE4 came out on PS2 I loved it, finished it on normal difficulty and forgot about it. Now that it's come out on Xbox 360 (yay) and of course has achievements, I'm trying to complete the game in professional mode. Honestly, it is pretty difficult, but obviously it is not impossible. I've mastered the use of the knife in previous games and normally end up with ridiculous amounts of ammunition at the end. One of the keys to professional is using the continue points in the game to your advantage massively, in ways such as:   1. Restarting from a continue point when you've been struck too many times and thus used too many healing items / ammunition.   2. Walking through one, killing a couple enemies, walking out, walking back in to kill a couple more and repeat until you've cleared the room (enemies reset their positions when you leave). The first point actually hinders me quite a bit because I always end up feeling like I've used too much ammunition and restart to try improve on what I've done. Sometimes it takes me over an hour to clear a single room and by that point I've managed to do the entire thing without using more than 2 handgun bullets or similar. I realize this is pretty overkill, so I've been wondering - are there any guidelines around how much ammo I actually need at given points in the game? I always feel as though I'm going to eventually come up against something in pro that will need **a lot** of bullets to kill and I won't have enough. Also, which bullets should I be using? I found myself at the end of normal mode having killed almost every boss with the mass handgun bullets I'd found + maxed out Red9 (because it's boss) with around 50-100 handgun bullets and then 600+ of rifle/shotgun bullets. If anyone has any insight into the couple of points above, that would be awesome and help me stop being extremely overkill with my ammunition conservation and actually start playing the game.

title: How can I disable Steam from starting up with Windows without logging in to Steam?

text: Is there a way to disable Steam from starting up automatically with Windows (XP/Vista/7) after installing it? I fix systems for people and some of them request or have Steam, so I reinstall it for them. However, I want to prevent it from starting up with windows without having to log-in with an account. I can easily hack the registry, but I'm curious if there is an alternative way to disable it without going that route. I also don't want to log-in with my own account; call it paranoia or whatever. :) EDIT: It seems as though there's some confusion in this request judging from the confused answers, so maybe I should elaborate further on this. I'm already deleting Steam's registry key from **HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run** , but I want to know if there is a way to get into the Steam client to disable/delete this key such that it won't repopulate that setting if you were to start it again manually. The reason for this is because if you start Steam again, there may be a chance that it will auto-start again (but I haven't confirmed this, so if anybody's done so already, feel free to let me know). **UPDATE:** Confirmed! Steam does not recreate the registry key. See my last comment under the answer I selected. What I'm trying to accomplish is sort of like a pseudo-sysprep where the user will get a freshly re-imaged machine with everything set at default values but optimized to boot faster without annoying programs starting up on you. Since Steam starts up for the first time with a first-run wizard prompt, the only way to get in and change the setting (that I can see) is to login with an existing account (or a create a new one but that seems moot if the user already has an account). I'd like for that wizard to stay where it is instead of it popping up with my own account being the last account logged on when they first launch Steam (it's just unprofessional), and I also want to keep Steam from auto-starting on my customers with Windows yet again. Maybe I'm asking this in the wrong area, but I'm sure there must be some other IT pros like me who run into these problems (with Steam or other programs). If there's no way to do it, then I'll just keep on trucking with the registry edits. Sorry for the level 99 difficulty of this question; I googled for answers well before asking this question and I realized that this is a very specific request, so I thought I'd ask the internet for help with it. Thanks again, everybody!

text: In trying for a perfect character everyone keeps going for 10 int but would it be possible to get the implant without leveling? Can you go to the clinic and then return to good springs and start the quests? would it be possible to assemble 2000caps and go into Vegas to get the remainder or would entering Vegas disrupt your quest line (like how fallout 3 could make you miss a lot of quests if you talked to doctor li in rivit city when you picked the int bobble head up).

Certainly, I looked at other folders too, but didn't see anything else belonging to the game. Any ideas?

title: Should I have played the first game and/or Invisible War to fully understand Human Revolution?

text: I am considering starting to play Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Having seen the trailer and some gameplay footage, and having read mostly positive reviews, I am quite sure I will have a blast. However, I have never had the chance to play any other games from the series. So I was wondering if I was missing out on any stuff that would somehow limit my understanding of the story of Human Revolution. In other words, would you advise me to play the first game and/or Invisible War before starting Human Revolution? Or will it be enough to read the plot from Wikipedia?

title: Why does Shenhua speak Japanese?

text: _Shenhua_ (aka _Shen Hua_ aka _Sha Hua_ aka _Shen Fa_ ) "grew up in the wilderness of China, surrounded by nature" (Wikipedia). She "has lived in Guilin her whole life" (Neoseeker). In **Shenmue II** , _Ryo_ meets her and she talks to him in accent-free Japanese (according to a friend of mine who speaks Japanese). In **Shenmue I** she also sings in Japanese. Why is that? I'm not sure, but I think her original name is Chinese. She grew up in China. She lives in China. Why does she speak perfect Japanese? Is it explained in the game? Or are there any hints? Maybe her adoptive father taught her Japanese? Is anything known about him (yet)? Is it plausible that he knows Japanese?


title: Is there any maximum numbers of Gems that a Team can Buy?

text: I've heard, several times, that a certain team in Dota 2, can't buy more than `X` gems (where `X` varies from 2 to 4) and thats why some people don't break the gems of the other team once they drop them, keeping them safe at the base. Is this true or it's just a Myth ? Whats the maximum number of Gems a team can buy ? I know gems have a `restock time` but i'm not sure if there's a limit to the number of gem instances per team.


title: How do attachments that add damage effects to projectiles work?

Those attachments are:   * Electric Charge   * Flame Glaze   * Acid Bath   * Damage Support I would like to know:   * How do these attachments compare to each other in terms of damage added to each projectile?    * How do they add damage?      * Is it a multiplier or a constant amount added per projectile?     * Are there attachments that will work better with low per projectile damage, high rate of fire weapons; instead of high per projectile damage, low rate of fire weapons, and vice-versa?      * How do they stack with Upgrade Circuits that increase damage?    * What are their effects on enemies? Does the enemy react differently, depending if the projectile that hit them comes with electricity, flame or acid?

title: How do I assign a single Keystroke to multiple items?

text: Skyrim is great during the gameplay but I dont like the menus at all. The problem is there are scenarios where I need to switch whole sets of armor, rings, necklaces and weapons very quickly. For eg, I start quests with sneaking around, for that I use the nightingale armor and use detect life spell + soul trap elven dagger. Now, when a tough guy / boss comes in the way then I need to switch to heavy steel armor, necklace for block, shield and a strong sword. Then I need to switch back. This involves so much menu navigation that I am starting to hate it. It would be superb if I could assign keys to scenarios like:   1. Assassin - light armor + blade    2. Warrior - heavy armor + one handed combat   3. Sharp shooter - light armor + bow + arrows   4. Mage - magica regen apparel + spells   5. Thief - muffle apparel + blade + lockpick/pickpocket ring/necklace   6. Business man - stuff to increase speech craft and price discount etc etc etc God! Is it just me or it is such a pain to switch between these items in-game. All because I like efficient gameplay. I know the game doesnt support this (I know about the Q - # shortcuts) but perhaps there are scripts or mods that allow assigning a keystroke to multiple items (apparel, weapons, spells, shouts, powers)?

title: What benefits do the different copilots bring?

text: Before starting the game, you can scroll through the list of available copilots to choose to have on your mission. By default, we are paired with Xavier Thomas, or 'X-man', seen below: ![Copilot 'X-man's ID badge and description](http://i.stack.imgur.com/ip8NM.gif) There are a few other copilots to choose from, and their textual description tends to mention their markmanship and winch skills. Comparing X-Man to Mr D, one is excellent with the winch whilst the other apparently jams it in the heat of battle. ![Copilot 'Mr D's ID badge and description](http://i.stack.imgur.com/lHbiG.png) A strategy guide over on CheatCC mentions the copilots briefly: > There are only two copilots worth using: Lt Keith Michaels and Lt Carlos > Valdez. [snip] Valdez is a fantastic marksman, and he's pretty good with the > winch. [snip] Michaels is a decent substitute since his gunning is only a > little worse, and gunning is the most important attribute here. However, I've _never_ noticed a difference between the different copilots, and choosing different ones has never impacted my gameplay. So does this guide speak the truth? If so, how do the different copilots stack up against one another?

title: Attila the Hun gets Battering Ram bonus on Rocket Artillery?

text: Ive been playing as Attila the Hun and initially I enjoyed the use of the battering rams and their +200% bonus against cities. However I am now much further on and all siege units I build also have this bonus. I was under the impression that this bonus only applies to battering rams, however Ive been building rocket artillery and they all have this bonus as well. Is this intentional? Or is this some kind of beneficial glitch in this particular game? * Not that Im complaining either way, rocket artillery with a +200% bonus are deadly against cities. (*) I had a game with a glitch in it a while back, where the number of turns until I get a golden age was incrementing at a much lower rate, meaning that later on in the game when I was generating 50+ happiness I only had to wait 3 or 4 turns in between golden ages. Ive never been able to recreate this glitch outside of the save files I have for that particular game. Needless to say in that particular game I had insane amounts of cash. I was wondering if this was a similar glitch.

title: Disable or silence DLC ads

text: I like to play games with my own music. Barring the odd terrible console port, this works out very well for me, because most games let me mute the in-game music.

Can I disable or silence these ads, so that I can enjoy my music properly?


title: Can a well-enhanced Double Jump substitute for Triple Jump?

text: In _A Valley Without Wind 2_ , there are Stratospheric Citadels that, supposedly, you can't complete unless you have Triple Jump. (The Evil Overlord's keep also can't be completed without it, though it can be entered and you can improved mage classes there.) **In my current game, I have Double Jump, plus access to several perks that will enhance my jump height. Can I break the sequence, skip getting Triple Jump, and go for the end-game now, by clearing both of the Citadels and the Evil Overlord's Keep?** I've already located both Stratospheric Citadels, but I can't spot any other Research Facilities at the moment, so finding Triple Jump will be a bit tricky for me. (I've tried entering one of the Citadels. There's a cliff at the beginning that claims to require Triple Jump, but I can clear it with a well-enhanced single jump. Unfortunately, I don't see anything that looks like a Citadel, stratospheric or not. Does the entrance not appear until I have Triple Jump, or am I just not spotting it?)


title: Can I change the equipment of my party members other than Rush?

text: In The Last Remnant normally it is not possible to change the equipment of a leader besides Rush.

However, when I attempted to start the game after making only this change ,I got a popup that the launcher was broken. I went back and changed to back to FALSE and it again worked. Was this change ever valid or has a update been made to stop it from being used. Or am I just doing this wrong? I play the game off of steam.

title: Early game food problems

text: Not so sure how well fishers work. I have had food problems since I started. I had half of my population fishing, people were dying left and right, and then I moved that up to 100% and they are all still just barely not starving to death. But I has just run of of firewood, and almost out of tools, and have almost no stone, and I still need to build a blacksmith. But I do not have a single free laborer to do anything. Are fishers only supposed to produce enough food for themselves and maybe their kids? I used to think it was that I only had a wagon and it was farish away. But I built a storage barn finally quite a bit ago, and people were still dying left and right. What I do not get about gathers (which everyone recommends) is how they are supposed to be efficient. They cannot be next to houses/storage, so every basket of food they get requires a 2 day trek to get it into town. How is that supposed to work out? Conversely, my fishermen produce boxes of fish pretty constantly, and even right next to a storage shed a significant amount of their time is going back and forth. What am I doing wrong, how are gatherers supposed to work with such a long required travelling time? Do I just place them on the edge of forests, butting up against my town? SO onyl half the circle is used, but they are right next to a storage shed and houses?

The fast zombies are pretty much everywhere (Returned Townies) but where do I find slow and dry moving zombies?


title: How is profit from gambling paid out?

text: Normally, with a trade port, the payment for your wares shows up all few days when they sell. With gambling however, this is different. There is no direct payout as far as I can see and it is also not in the budget window at all. When I look at a Casino or Gambling House, it tells me what I earn per day but also what I pay or earn per hour. So when does the game exactly take away or add the money I lose or make via gambling?

According to some timelines, _III_ occurs in 1285, but did the counting of the years start with the creation of Sanctuary or the winking into existence of the High Heavens/Burning Hells? I figure as angels and demons aren't mortal, they don't really count the years as us mortals do, but I haven't found anything that says this outright.

I have wasted either a health potion and/or heals because I wasn't sure if he had a heal ready. Is there any way to see the cooldowns for these abilities so I know if I can expect a heal or if I should drink a health potion?


title: Seven Sided Strike Runes: Sudden Assault or Several Sided Strike?

text: I am a bit confused by a couple of the runes from the Monk ability "Seven Sided Strike"   * On the one hand, you have "Sudden Assault" which deals 1007% damage in the normal seven strikes.   * On the other hand, you have "Several Sided Strike" which increases the number of hits to 9. The community-wide assumption, is that several sided strike deals 999% damage, as the base seven sided strike does 777% in 7 strikes. The damage difference between the two is fairly negligible. **Is there an advantage to one or the other? Do the additional two strikes extend the animation, thereby making you invulnerable for longer?**

Here is the error entry as it shows in Events Viewer:               Faulting application name: GENETOS.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4b31d5be     Faulting module name: dmsynth.dll, version: 6.2.9200.16384, time stamp: 0x5010a507     Exception code: 0xc000001d     Fault offset: 0x00012886     Faulting process id: 0xdb4     Faulting application start time: 0x01cf2e7f9fe923c9     Faulting application path: D:\Games\GENETOS_Ver1_00\GENETOS.exe     Faulting module path: C:\Windows\System32\dmsynth.dll      I have the latest DirectX and NVidia drivers. I also have Japanese set as the language for non-Unicode programs. Can someone direct me on how to fix the error? I heard there was a similar error in Hotline Miami but I couldn't find what the devs actually did to fix it. Also, googling for "dmsynth.dll errors" returns a billion sketchy dll download websites. E: I tried running the game as administrator and using the compatibility mode. Neither worked :(


title: Did I see an Ender Dragon?

text: I'm playing on hard in survival, on vanilla Minecraft for the Xbox 360. I was using my Ender Eye when this black object appeared. My cousin said that it was probably a ghast. He ran away to build our house in a village about 67 blocks away. I turned away and suddenly it said he burned to death. When I turned my back, there was burning houses and the black object disappeared. Did I see an Ender Dragon in the Overworld, or was this a glitch?


title: How does shielding work?

text: Sometimes, a shield pops around my main star. I'm sure it has something to do with life planets around it that generate their own shield, but how does it work exactly ?

title: Can a PSVita download DLC for a PSP?

text: My main PSP which is the original model however it wont connect to my wireless network cause it seems to be incompatible with the WPA Security on it, I'm planning on getting a PS Vita and from what i heard PSP games are backwards compatible on it so can I download PSP DLC using it (cause obviously the Vita would be compatible with WPA Security) I ask this as I just got Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days and learned there is DLC for it, since I'm playing Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness at the moment I do have time before I want to download all the DLC for Disgaea 2.

title: Do Port/Online monsters have different drop rates?

text: I remember that in MHFU, the monsters encountered on Guild hunts were reputed to have higher drop rates for rarer materials (such as Rubies and Plates). I am not sure if this was true, but is this the case in MH3U? Do the Tanzia (Port) monsters have different drop rates than the Moga (Village) monsters?


title: Minecraft forestry multiple arboretum multifarms cannot work at the same time

text: I have two of the largest size multifarms set up as arboretums to generate saplings for biofuel production. They are both set up correctly and have all resources piped in through thermal expansion tesseracts when they are low. Both of these work fine, but the problem is that when I have them both put on at the same time, only one farm will recognize the farmland, and the other will shut itself down claiming that there is no land to lay soil on. This is not correct, because I have had both of them working without any changes by themselves, but for some reason they cannot both run at the same time. Turning one off and leaving it as an intact farm does not correct the problem, however removing a couple farm blocks and restarting seems to switch it over to the other farm, but then the previous one cannot be re-enabled unless I do this again the other way. Is this a bug? Or do I need to use different types of farmland bed on each? I am using smooth sandstone on both, at the third layer from the bottom of the farms, and I also have a wheat farm with stone brick farmland bedding which seems to be unaffected. The farms are next to each other on the same vertical plane with about a four block buffer between the two. I need both farms going to produce enough saplings for biofuel, as I have a rather large liquid fuel steam boiler setup generating power for the entire world (energy tesseracts). I currently have about 2.5m fuel refined and the system automatically switches over to biofuel when regular fuel reserves run out, but I will need the biofuel system to be functional within about 4 days unless I find another huge oil reserve somewhere, and it currently only outputs roughly half of what I need to keep everything going by itself. I've spent about five hours online trying to find an answer to why this is happening and have come up with nothing. Thanks in advance.


title: Will a grade school and high school steal students from my university?

text: This question is related to this other question: Once you build a University, can the high school and community college be safely closed? I find that my University is routinely under-used, while I have two grade schools that are routinely close-to-full. Has anyone experimented with disabling their grade schools? Does the university fill up? Or are the student pools entirely different? Update: I tried powering off my grade schools and high school during the night (community college was already off). Around 4pm of the that day, the University crossed the 1,000 students threshold. So I think this is evidence for the "single student" pool hypothesis (which is weird I suppose).


title: Is Void Staff always effective, or it's meant to be situational?

text: For almost every ap mid I used (spell-based, like Annie) I bought the same thing: boots, rabadon and void staff. There're certain moments where I start asking myself... Would it be more benefical in all situations to get even more AP, or is void staff still the best option even if almost no one buys magic resistance? However I always feel safer to get void after rabadon, as it guarantees there's less chance of survival for them against my champ's spells.


title: How can the damage reduction from Armor in League of Legends not have diminishing returns?

text: The formula for calculating damage reduction from armor in League of Legends is               Damage Reduction = Total Armor / (100 + Total Armor)      It seems clear to me that this formula dictates that adding more armor has diminishing returns. For example, let's say my champion has 50 armor, which gives damage reduction of 33.33% and I buy an item that gives 25 more armor; then my champion's total armor would be 75 and damage reduction would be 42.86%. That means I saw a 28.6% increase in damage reduction (damage reduction was increased by 9.53%). Now let's say I buy another of these items with 25 armor. Now my champion's armor will be at 100 which gives damage reduction of 50%. That means I saw a 16.66% increase in damage reduction (damage reduction was increased by 7.14%). Therefore, from the first 25 armor item I bought got me 9.53% damage reduction, while the second time I bought the item it only got me 7.14% damage reduction. It looks to me like it was 25.08% _less effective_ the second time I bought it. That _screams_ diminishing returns to me. Why would someone say otherwise? Would they say anything different about Magic Resistance? Note: This question was inspired by a comment thread which started off of this question: http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/5601/what-is-the-formula- for-armor-magic-resist-reduction/5602#5602. I have heard similar insinuations made before, though, implying that magic resist and armor are somehow different in the department of diminishing returns (although I am not sure if that was implied in the comments on the related question).

title: Keeping unskilled engravers away from a job site

I could lock him in easily enough, but I don't want to risk him starving if I forget about him and he runs out of food. Is there some way to keep the other engravers out while still allowing the good one to leave when he needs to?

title: Strange behaviour on Black Ops Multiplayer

text: Sometimes when I'm playing Black Ops, my movement is distorted, in that it moves side to side, backwards and forwards. When it started happening I thought it was my network connection, so I reset all my configurations so that my NAT wouldn't be disrupting the communications. However, it still happens intermittently. If I let go of the controls, it still happens. I'm worried that it may be because of some hacks that people are using, but I can't see anything obvious, i.e. nobody is running away with the game, and I don't know of any hacks that are available on the PS3. Has anybody experienced anything similar or can anybody suggest a way of preventing this from happening?


title: What does the icon next to your squad leader's name mean?

text: Most of the times (always?) there is an icon next to the squad leader's name (see picture below). I'm not talking about the class icon which is visible for all squad members, but rather the icon between the class icon and the name. Sometimes this is a star but I've also seen it be what looks like an ammo clip as well as a bomb blast or something. It _seems_ to indicate some sort of upgrade the user has attached but I'm not sure I'm correct. An also, what is the reasoning behind:   * What upgrade is shown - you typically have multiple upgrade/perks available at any given time   * Why only for the squad leader? Isn't it just as interesting to see this information for all members of the squad? ![Battefield 3 HUD](http://i.stack.imgur.com/tmQDb.jpg) (note: I found this image online, it looks slightly different on my ps3)


title: Stuck in World 2-4 in Midnight Leaves

text: "Midnight Leaves" is a puzzle-game which takes part in the IGF 2012. A demo is available on the author's website. I am currently stuck in World 2-4. The aim is to "release" all the yellow leaves, and we are allowed to move only once on each tile, except if we have special power-ups. The main character is the yellow square. The dark grey square is a power-up which allows to move several times on the four following tiles. The circles launch fireballs after four steps. The red cross cancels any power-up. ![World 2-4 level](http://i.stack.imgur.com/o5fsr.jpg) And there is this new power-up with a crossed-out leaf. It seems I cannot understand the meaning of the hint: > Some leaves will free if you hit a fireball on its crystal. What am I supposed to do? * * * **Edit** If you want to try this level yourself, just create a new file called `Data.mlgc` containing:               [Data]     World=2     Level=4      This will give you the same savefile as I currently have.


title: Skipped the first dragon encounter - now what?

So I go on kicking ass until I get to the last guy who is in a tomb in front of the first dragon word of power. Thing is that he also has dragon power and kills me in an instant. After I saw that the first dragon encounter is before that (so I can get a dragon soul and activate my first word of power having the chance of killing the bastard) I get back to Whiterun to see if I can still access the first dragon encounter but I'm failing miserably. Can someone help me with this?

title: Do Origin Cloud saves work properly with Steam?

text: I have Origin and Battlefield 3 and prefer to launch BF3 via Steam. The game runs fine, but when I launch Origin occasionally gives a warning that Cloud Saves can only be used when launching via Origin. I'm not sure what this is supposed to mean; launching via Steam still opens/authenticates via Origin and takes me to the Battlelog website, the game works fine and it runs the Cloud Save sync before stating the game. However I've noticed that it seems to occasionally cause sync conflicts when starting the game. If I play Origin games via Steam, is it not uploading my Cloud Save files to Origin or what? I only have one PC, so conflicts aren't a huge problem, but _do_ want my files backed up in the cloud. Origin is of course installed, so if necessary I can just launch BF3 through that.

text: So long story short, i was near the last episodes? of ACT 2 when a friend invited me to a coop game. when i was done, i quit, went to the menu and hit resume and when i go in, it started me ALL the way back in ACT2 episode/chapter 1 when you first get to the city. I go ahead and manually start the last episode i was on in act 2 but it literally, took away all my last items, maps(uncovered/traveled to), equipped items etc... i still have all my powers and slots that i set them to but essentially im going to have to redo all of the last missions i did b4 i joined that game. My question is, is this a bug? Or somethng deliberate (which i highly doubt). It upsets me because now im paranoid ill loose data when i join someone elses missions. Any one experience this or something i did wrong??? I mean i always quit the same way so not sure whats going on. Thanks in advanced.


title: What are the rules governing duplicate cards in Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013?

text: I just fought two consecutive opponents in the campaign that I thought had pretty odd decks:   * **Face of the Ghoulcaller:** A black deck that had at least 9 _Horrifying Revelation_ cards, all cast in a row.   * **Disturbing the Nest:** A white deck that had 12 _Suntail Hawk_ cards, again, all cast in a row. Granted, it's been a while since I played the physical card game, but I could've sworn there was a restriction of four non-land, non-legendary cards per deck. I don't recall ever facing an opponent with that many duplicate cards in _DotP_ or _DotP 2012_ , though. So what gives? Are the rules of deck creation different for Magic 2013 or even just for _Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013_? If so, what are the rules? Or are computer opponents just allowed to "cheat" and create cheese decks like these?

title: When do eclipses occur?

text: This site lists many Dawnguard add-on random encounters that occur "during an eclipse." Why do I want to know? I'm trying contract Sanguinare Vampiris ASAP. In an earlier play-through, I came upon a vampire attack at Pelagius Farm, on my way to Whiterun from Riverwood. I manipulated the vampire into afflicting me. I'm trying to get this to occur again, but another vampire isn't spawning there. Perhaps I came upon it during an eclipse? I was also level 33 at the time rather than level 1, but I've buffered up to level 26, so that may matter too. Now that I think about it, I could possibly get a vampire to attack Riverwood too.


title: Can I determine 'not 100% charged' using AE2 fuzzy logic upgrades in export buses?

text: I'm trying to automate the charging of all my gear, because it's getting tiring to toss each thing into a different MFE/MFSU, wait for it to charge, then remember to pick it up. I know that a charging station exists as an add-on for IndustrialCraft 2 experimental, but I'd rather build my own, and I don't know if it has even been ported to 1.7.2 / 1.7.10. So, I did some experimenting, and I determined that I can automate this to some extent. I set up an ad-hoc network using an ME chest, and some import / export buses: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/VERD9.png) Basically, I can toss any _completely_ depleted item into the ME chest, it gets picked up by export buses, placed in one of the MFSUs, where an import bus programmed to pull the item once 100% charged places it back into the ME chest. This works perfectly, I can toss stuff in the chest, go do other things, then come back to find my gear fully charged. However, it _only_ works if the gear is completely out of power. I've tried several configurations with fuzzy logic upgrades in the export buses (which put the items into the MFSUs), so that any item with only a partial charge gets picked up, but I'm not having a lot of luck. They're not getting picked up. What I did was, took one of each item at 50% charge, told the fuzzy logic card to split the damage at 25%, which I _thought_ would have worked. I then tried the other options without success. Getting these items into various states of charge to continue experimenting is a bit tedious, so I'm wondering if anyone has successfully automated charging of stuff using AE2. Note, I have checked my channels, I'm only using 7 (including the chest). The buses are all lit up and operational.

title: When idling in Team Fortress 2, do items build up?

title: Cookie Clicker: Heavenly vs Infernal key

text: I just downloaded Cookie Clicker (on android) by Deathwing Studios and was given a choice to use my `Overcharged Chip` to purchase a `Heavenly Key` or an `Infernal Key`. The descriptions are as follows:               Heavenly key:     - Unlock new buildings     - Heavenly buildings are cheaper than infernal          Infernal Key:     - Unlock new buildings     - Infernal buildings produce more than heavenly      I decided to go with Infernal Key because more is _obviously_ better but now I'm curious as to the specific benefits of the Heavenly Key. I spent the better part of an hour browsing google but all I've been able to find are details pertaining to the browser version of the game and not the mobile one. Does anybody know the exact details (eg. cost and base CpS) of the Heavenly route?

title: Recettear: Paying that second loan

text: While I have fun playing Recettear on steam I have a hell of a time paying that second loan of. I've game overed twice by now and I actually have no idea how to go about it. If I put high priced objects on display many customers (escpecially the little girl, the husband and Louis) aren't willing or able to even afford a 10 percent raise. In fact, when Louis asked to buy a metal armor, he wasn't able to give me the reduced (!) price of 80%. Man, Louis, I'm trying to make a living here! But with low priced objects I will never get the necessary 30k in a week. Also, I've noticed that the more often I open my shop the fewer customers come in. What am I doing wrong and how can I attract customers with bigger budgets so that I can sell them my highpriced wares?


title: Solo Player Corp Hisec Invention/Research POS - Feasible or Not?

text: I'm currently a fairly high skilled mission runner / carebear type that has rarely ventured out of hisec space. On top of typical amarr skills for running a very well fitted paladin and legion, with 5's in almost all relevant skills, I also can fly a well fitted crane (for hauling) and hulk/mackinaw. I would like to crosstrain into industrial skills and after spending an hour chasing around my home region looking for BPC copy facilities, I decided it would probably be better to set up a POS for copying, invention and maybe some light manufacturing. I would only want it to be lightly profitable, maybe making 400m isk per month, but if it requires a research alt then I would like it to be able to generate 600m+ isk per month to pay the alt's subscription. I have done a lot of research on this to decide whether I wanted to pursue it further, but I wasn't able to find much, if any, information on the current climate, as all of my information was 6 months to 3 years old. **What's the current economic feasibility of building a POS in 0.7 or so empire space?*** I've also heard that griefer corps, for lack of a better term, like to wardec and pop POS belonging to solo corps. **Are other corps wardec-ing a real risk if you intentionally pick a moon that's undesirable for resources as you would just be using it for research?** *When I say economic feasibility, I'm basically asking if I will probably break even spending maybe 15-30 minutes a day on this with a fuel run every other week vs this just being a complete and total money sink and waste of time. **Note on the maths: A small tower should require a badger load of fuel blocks every 2 weeks, as my badger holds 20k m^3. Medium tower would need fuel every 7 or so days, and large 3.5-4 days. _edit_ I noticed I just earned "popular question" for this topic, so I'll update it with more info. I learned since then that you can have three alts for manufacturing and research on one account. A half decent POS can support enough slots to keep all three alts busy easily, even in empire. If you research your markets well, research your BPOs well, and get a freighter, or even multiple accounts with freighters, then you can stand to make 10+ bil per month, with maybe 1 hour per day of work if you have multiple hauling accounts. A large POS costs <400m per month in fuel costs, so even if you're PLEXing 3 accounts, it's well worth the cost. Also note, you can't moon-mine in hisec, so don't even worry about that.

text: Okay, I absolutely love Final Fantasy IX and its story. It's pretty darn solid overall. But there seems to be some kind of plot hole. When the party goes to Madain Sari, Quina is there and s/he* helps Eiko cook up a feast for everyone. Afterwards, s/he goes to sit by the river side. Then, after the party goes to the Iifa Tree, Quina just completely disappears from the ruined city. I didn't find any dialogue or Active Time Events which explained this at all. S/he is just gone. Then, on Disc 3, s/he suddenly appears again in Treno while you're supposed to be winning the card game tournament. What? Is there any explanation as to what happened here? I'm hoping that I missed something, because this would represent a glaring deficiency in an otherwise awesome and seamless story. * * * `*` Not being grammatically incorrect for the sake of being politically correct. That's how Quina is referred to in the game.

Why am I getting no power warnings from some buildings? Sims are moving out and my population is decreasing!

text: When I'm sneaking around, I can move more slowly and quietly by holding `shift`. But walking this way is _really_ slow. I would like to move a little bit faster, but not full speed. On a console I imagine you have much finer control over how fast you move with the joysticks. Is there any way to accomplish this on the PC (without an external joystick)? Perhaps there is a console command or config file setting that will change the % speed modifier that holding down `shift` uses?


title: What is the meaning of symbols in Farming Simulator?

text: What do the symbols in Farming Simulator 2011 mean? I do not know what plant they represent. I have looked for an answer on the internet but I couldn't find any. These are the crop symbols but im not sure which crop they represent.![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/ueWD5.jpg) This is the symbol but there are other ones.(Sorry its a bit blurrred)


title: What are the ways in which placed towers can be moved while remaining active?

text: On the Throne Room map, I noticed that as the boss advanced, he would push Slice N Dice Blockades back slowly as he advanced forward. The towers would remain active but just get pushed backward, eventually ending up in a little clump on the other side of the crystals. Are there any other ways that towers can be moved while remaining active, particularly, can you move your own towers like that?


title: Does the Goblin Mech always spawn in the west?

text: I've only played the Throne Room level once, and he spawned in the west. My friend says he spawned in the west for him as well. Two trials is hardly enough to go by, however. If I want to play the level again and set up extra defenses facing west and he comes from the east, I'm going to be in a bad spot. I ask because the same thing happened to me with the ogre in Foundries and Forges. He always moved and attacked the crystal from the east until I set up all my defenses once facing east, and then he moved to the south entrance instead.


title: Starcraft 2 Galaxy editor mirroring tools?

text: I like my maps to be symmetrical, and I wanted to know since a casual poking around didn't find anything: Are there any commands or tools in the Starcraft 2 Galaxy editor to assist with making my maps symmetrical? Even an ability to export the heightmap for editing would work.


title: Forza Motorsport 3 co-op career

text: In Forza Motorsport 3 for the XBox 360, the only place where I can see a "Splitscreen" option is in the single race mode. Can I start an offline, splitscreen co-op career mode?
