title: Did minecraft 1.4.2 nerf high level enchantments in favour of the new Anvil?

text: Since minecraft 1.4.2 came out yesterday, it introduced a new "Anvil" block - capable of combining enchantments from multiple items. Last night I put two bows on the enchantment table, enchanting them both with level-30 exp. One bow gave me a sad "Power II" and the other one gave me a sad "Flame I" (I'm serious, level-30). On the other hand, I got a "Power III & Flame I" bow with only a level-17 enchanting a few days ago in version 1.3.2. (Based on my memory; actual enchanting results or level used could be slightly off, but you see my point.) Is this just bad luck, or has enchanting been nerfed recently?


title: How to move Battlefield 3 game data folder?

text: Battlefield 3 created its game data folder for settings and screenshots at the top level of my documents folder: \My Documents\Battlefield 3. Most games get this right, saving their data in the Windows-standard _Saved Games_ folder. I'll skip the rant, but if every program selfishly dumped its settings at the top of _My Documents_ it'd become an organizational outhouse. I haven't found a way to tell Battlefield to move this folder to the right place. In fact I'd be happy to put it anywhere but the top of _My Documents_. Any ideas? Note: there was an an earlier question about the game installation directory, but I haven't found an answer to this question there.


title: Why have my Bitizen's skill levels changed?

text: In the beginning of the game I made sure to evict Bitizens with low skill level, and only kept 9's and 8's. Now I have noticed that most, if not all of my Bitizens have a decreased skill level with some even down to 0. Why is this happening?


title: Watchtower in Die2Nite, how exactly does it work?

text: Using the watchtower the town can estimate the size of the coming zombie attack. The more citizens use the watchtower, the better the estimate becomes.   * Is the number of people needed reduced when people die? Or does it always take the same amount of people to get an estimate, regardless of the town population?   * How many people are needed for the initial estimate?   * Is the real zombie number always within the estimate? Or can the estimate be deceiving?

title: Just Cause 2 - Never get past loading screen

text: I bought Just Cause 2 via Steam and installed on Windows 7. My video card isn't great, but I could run the 3 test scenes at 30fps at 1280. When I played the game, it ended the first cut scene, I jumped out of the plane, it said loading, and it hung there forever. I restarted the game and the same thing happened. I read that some other people have the same problem, too. Some suggested deleting the app files, which probably just resets the video setting. That didn't help. Suggestions? Update: I checked the minimum requirements, and I believe my PC meets them all. I have an ATI Radeon HD 3650 card, and when I lower the resolution it does just fine (30fps) on the benchmarks.


title: What are "cast" "shoutcast" "blastcast" etc.?

text: Watching HD / Husky commentaries, they often refer to what they are doing as "casts" and sometimes "shoutcasts" or "blastcasts". I guess "cast" is short for broadcast, but what do the other two mean? And what other types of "casting" are there? Do other games use this terminology as well?

title: How many turns does a Spy in Civilization 5 replaced by new recruit when killed?

text: Recently I installed Civilization 5 with DLC. I love playing the game with spies. But when I encounter that my spy got **'Killed in Action'**. I have search the net for this but so far I read the wiki said **'replaced after some turns'**. What is the exact number of turns? Is it based on distance of the city? strength/experience of the spy? or fixed like exactly replaced in 5 turns? Thank you in advance!

title: Can you remove the "1.6.2 is Available" nag message in older versions of Minecraft?

text: Recently I upgraded to the newest version of Minecraft only to find out that it's not compatible with a few of my favorite mods that I use. So I got my backup 1.5.2 jar, and used a custom launcher (Magic Launcher), and everything works fine. The only issue is that when I go to the screen there is a nagging message saying that 1.6.2 is available for download. Can I get rid of it somehow or what?


title: Xbox 360 green light turns on but it does not work or boot up

text: When I turn on my xbox 360 I can hear the fan working and The green light in the middle turns on. I am not able to connect a controller. When I turn on my tv nothing shows up. My xbox had been working perfectly fine a couple of minutes ago. When I tried to turn it on again this happened. The adapter light is orange when the xbox is off and when I turn the Xbox on it turns green. I am able to open and close the disc tray to insert a game disk but nothing happens. Does any one know what the problem is?

title: How can I find my World's Strongholds?

text: I've been searching for hours in the game to find a Stronghold and haven't seen one. Apparently lots of mobs and treasures can be found there, but the question is where can we find those? Can we find them near a ravine or abandoned tunnels?


title: How to locate fortresses?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  How can I find my World's Strongholds? Is there any reliable tool for determining the locations of Fortresses and Nether fortresses in Minecraft?   We migrated our server to the latest version of Bukkit. Since we have quite a bit of the map already revealed, I'm not sure whether we still have a chance of finding a fortress in the overworld.   So instead of running around the map, I'd like to use a tool to find their locations and then check whether those chunks were already generated. Similarly, is there such a tool for Nether fortresses? (Even this isn't such a pressing issue, since there are supposed to be many of them.)


title: How far is the stronghold from your stronghold?

text: The stronghold seems to be really far away from my spawn point, and I end up losing all the 'eye of enders' I have. Any idea on how far a stronghold can be from a spawn point?(Since there can be just 3 in a world, I assume they can be **really** far away!)

text: I can't find any mention of what the Luck (LUK) stat actually does. It's not on the Wiki and I couldn't find anything about it in the in-game help menu. I have the other stats figured out but "Luck" is always a wishy-washy stat in RPGs. What does LUK do? Does it increase drop chance? Does it improve my critical rates? Something else?


title: What does this light-emitting pillar do?

It seems to have some sort of light coming from it and landing on a specific square. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/M5211.png) Am I going to get any bonuses (or debuffs) if I put one of my units there?

title: Is there a way to save Airi's Father?

text: So I found Airi's father bleeding on the ground after he accidentally summoned some high level demons. I wasn't sure exactly when the event was opened up but I did it at 1700. My previous save was 5 hours ago (at 1200) and I'm wondering if I could have saved him if I made it on time.


title: Tamed dogs and cats won't leave me alone

text: I'm playing Minecraft SMP I've tamed a couple dozen wolves and cats, brought them back to my home, bred them, and left them in a kennel. My plan was to position the cats around my house to keep away creepers, and take a couple dogs with me when I go adventuring. The rest have been made to sit. My problem is that while I'm out and about for an hour or two, out of nowhere my animals will all warp to my position, regardless of how near or far I am from my home where they were told to sit. Having 50 animals warp to your position in a 2x1 mining tunnel is not a good time. Is there anything I can do to keep my animals from warping to me all the time or am I going to have to do something monstrous?

title: What is the Exceedingly Rare Special item?

text: So a recent update turned CS:GO into a microtransaction model similar to DotA2 and TF2. As such, one of the weapon crates lists:               eSports 2013 Case     Counter-Strike: Global Offensive     Counter-Strike: Global Offensive     Base Grade Weapon Case     Case Series #2          This case contains one of the following:     M4A4 | Faded Zebra     MAG-7 | Memento     FAMAS | Doomkitty     Galil AR | Orange DDPAT     Sawed-Off | Orange DDPAT     P250 | Splash     AK-47 | Red Laminate     AWP | BOOM     P90 | Death by Kitty      or an **_Exceedingly Rare Special Item_** So what is this Exceedingly Rare Special Item? Is it like TF2, where hats would be uncrated with the Unusual particle effect, and do weapons get that too? Or is it something else entirely?


title: How do I make an automatic server backup in Minecraft?

text: There is no built-in implementation in a Vanilla Minecraft server to force a save every X minutes, then back up the files into a folder. I know how to do log rotations and I can also do a normal backup using Window's `XCOPY` or `ROBOCOPY`, but have no idea how to do it when the server is running to prevent possible data corruption. How can I perform an automatic backup that ensures a consistent state of the game data? The server is running on Windows.


title: Can a Starly inherit a Staravia/Staraptor's Hidden Ability once it evolves?

text: I just noticed Starly doesn't have a Hidden Ability, but its evolutions, Staravia and Staraptor, do. So if I were to breed a female Staravia/Staraptor correctly (not using a Ditto), would the offspring Starly have a 60% chance of evolving into a Staravia that knows its species's hidden ability, Reckless, even though it would just have Keen Eye as a Starly?

I notice that many of my industries tend towards the same number but I'm not sure if there's an end to the amount it can produce. I assume that, if yes, the industries that require inputs will also saturate in their output.

title: Why are my enchanted items worth less and less?

text: I've been trying my hand at smithing and producing loads of iron daggers. Those alone are unfortunately not really worth anything, so I decided to enchant them. With a damage stamina enchantment the daggers were suddenly worth more than 600 gold (though the greedy vendors don't give me that much, of course). I've been doing this for a short while and noticed that the value of my enchanted daggers keeps declining, though my enchantment skill is only increasing. Any idea what is happening here, why are my daggers losing value? This is the value when I just started enchanting again: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/9glb3.jpg) And now after practising enchanting for a while longer my daggers are worth even less: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/DFIAt.jpg)

text: I can't manage to down all three warriors simultaneously. What's the solution? ![Warrior Bash](http://i.stack.imgur.com/tpNnE.jpg)


In Grid 2, one of the race types is called "Live Race", your engineer informs you that these races can change at any time and you're not provided with a map, which implies that these races are dynamically generated levels. However, I've found that if I restart one of these races, I always seem, to get an identical track. Is it that these tracks are generated and then reused in the event you restart the race or are these actually not dynamically generated tracks at all? Are "Live Races" actually dynamically generated levels?

But I didn't complete all the old achievements yet, so if I kill special enemies for the "Kill al these named enemies" achievements and didn't have them pre seasons yet, does my seasonal kill also count for the normal achievements? Same goes for the "drink from a stupid amount of healing fountains" and enviromental kills,...


title: Are there enough resources in Metro: Last Light to make exploration optional?

text: From what I understand, _Metro: Last Light_ is a semi-linear game where you have a general path to follow, but there might be a few rooms off to the side that you can explore for resources, back story, and whatnot. If I played the game without much exploration and just took a straight path through the game, on medium/default difficulty, would it still be possible to complete the game while still being challenging but fair? Or does the game truly encourage exploration by making later levels very difficult unless you have enough of certain resources?

I know I am doing everything correctly but none of the mods are doing anything. When I try to download any other mod, they dont work either; they do the same as the first, or the game crashes when I press play. I have been trying for a while to get mods working, and I can just tell that I'm very close. I also know I'm putting the mods in the right folder.


title: How can I deploy bombs more effectively?

text: Having gained access to my first ship with a bomb slot (The Gull) and using it for a while, I realized that I couldn't use the weapon effectively. Ships carrying bomb mounts usually have it dead center, and launches them straight ahead instead of dropping off the sides like missiles. Because of their slow initial speed and lack of tracking systems, which would allow them to curve, they are very likely to be shot down by the enemy's beam or cannon weapons. Worse, if the enemy get into range of the ship the beam weapon is likely to cut down the bomb before it even ignites, blowing it up in my face. I feel like I'm missing something here. How can I use these dumb explosives more effectively?

If a hole is 1m wide by 1m long by 2m deep with a source block filling the lower empty space, will rain fill the upper empty space on top of the existing source block?   3. If the answer to #2 is "yes", what is the maximum depth of a hole that can be filled in that manner?


title: How does character attribute advancement work in Cladun?

text: In _ClaDun_ , characters can either be your _Main_ or _Sub_ in a Magic Circle. Different classes have different growth depending on where they are in the circle, for example a Warrior has "Average" in both main and sub but other classes have some stats marked with "+" and others with "-". Does this mean they gain stats faster/slower with that configuration, or that those stats go up/down upon level up and I need to swap them into the main role to prevent stats from going to zero? Does this make a big difference, or should I be more concerned with levels, equipment, and artifacts than individual stat gains?

I would have expected the assets window to be able to do that, but I couldn't find our how to show me only my ships.

title: Are all units in cover really covered in CoH?

text: Units in Company of Heroes can be in various kinds of cover. For instance, if the "green cover" symbol appears above a unit group's flag, it means the group is in heavy cover and is hard to hit. However, does this mean that **the whole group** (any unit in that group) is really in green cover? For instance, is it possible that even though a group's flag shows the green cover symbol only part of its units are really covered while one or two of them are in yellow or no cover?

title: How can I receive a success output signal from command block on a fill clock?

text: I have a setup like this: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/wR6Nm.png) In which the yellow command blocks are a standard 20Hz /fill clock, and the blue is a command such as, for example:               /spreadplayers ~ ~ 10 20 false @p[r=5]      My problem, which has cropped up for me quite a few times, is that I want to get some kind of redstone pulse or output when the blue command block succeeds. The obvious solution is a comparator, but that does not work for this as the command executes once and then fails on the next tick, resetting its successcount before the comparator can detect it. Ideally this output detection should also be pretty fast, although it doesn't have to work at the same frequency as the fill clock. The solution needs to actually be testing for if the command succeeded. I have tried some things with /blockdata and /testforblock, but no success as of yet. Edit: Again, the solution needs to actually test for the block succeeding. It cannot just test for, say, the players location, because the command block will not always do something that can be tested for. Imagine that instead it is a /say, relative /fill, or /clear item command.

title: How can I deal with repeat teamkillers in BFBC2 Hardcore mode on PS3?

text: I've experienced that killing people in the own team becomes more and more common. Sometimes it's because they want to have the vehicle you're taking, sometimes I guess just for fun (I've even seen someone named "Teamkiller...") or as a revenge for being (possibly unintentionally) team-killed. This is no fun at all and can turn the whole game around. Losing a few points and having team kills in your record doesn't seem to scare many people off. For example, experienced players can easily compensate for -100 points for shooting a team mate before entering a helicopter, by then taking that helicopter and destroying tanks. How can I remove teamkillers that are ruining a game from Battlefield Bad Company 2 Hardcore games? How can I keep them from coming back?

title: Do Villagers count towards the passive mob total with respect to animal spawning?

text: With regard to mob spawning, a 17 chunk by 17 chunk area centered around the player will have a passive mob cap of 11, meaning that if there are 11 or more passive mobs (i.e. animals) in that area, no new passive mobs will spawn. Villagers do appear under the passive mob list, but they have very different spawning behavior than animals do (i.e. they will not randomly spawn, and can only be created either at world generation, through villager breeding, or by curing zombie villagers). So, for the purpose of animal spawning, are Villagers counted towards the passive mob total? In other words, if I had nothing except 11 Villagers in an area, would no animals spawn at all there?


title: Starcraft II Galaxy Editor - How do I decide the dimensions of my dialog?

text: How do I decide the dimensions of my dialogs in the Starcraft II Galaxy Editor? I've tried the Galaxy ++ Editor, but it does not seem very accurate and when I use the numbers that they provided me with, the dialog seems really messed up. Is there a better way for me to decide the width, offset, height, etc. of my dialogs?


title: How can I obtain the "Perfect as Tears" and "Like Stars in the Sky" achievements?

text: These two achievements require crafting a Radiant Star gem of the four original types: topaz, ruby, emerald, and amethyst. Finding the recipes is no longer an issue because in the 2.0.1 patch, all gem recipes through Marquise were automatically trained (or gained on jeweler levels - mine started at 10 so I can't check). So, prior to the expansion, one could farm hundreds of Flawless Square gems at level 60 and slowly work their way up to a Radiant Star. Unfortunately, once you hit level 61, Flawless Squares no longer drop. Only Marquise and Imperial gems do. Given the very small window where Flawless Square gems are eligible to drop, the high number of gems required, and the low amount of experience required to get out of this range, is there any reasonable method for acquiring these two achievements in RoS?


title: What seals would suit my Torterra?

text: I want to get seals for my Torterra but i have been unable to find some that suit him. I am looking for brown or green colour effects to suit his type and colour. I would like to know if there are any seals to suit my Torterra and how to get them.

title: Skyrim PC No mouse controls

text: My friend told me to do 'EnablePlayerControls' while I was on the carriage to Helgen and now I can't use 'm1' or 'm2' Any fix? Not using the console ever again. Edit: I was using Alternate Start and mouse controls worked then. But then I went to Skyrim out of the prison cell and it stopped working. Secondary Edit: I can upload a list of my mods when I get my computer back.


title: What does the denominator in the tourism tooltip mean?

text: The gambling or culture adviser will show you how many tourists visited your city today and yesterday. If you mouse over the number of tourists, you see a tooltip with a breakdown by wealth level 2,000 / 10,000 low wealth   3,000 / 12,000 medium wealth   80 / 80 high wealth **What does the number in the denominator mean?** The numerator appears to be the number of tourists of that wealth level who visited the city.


title: What is the solution to level 89?

text: In _Hundreds_ , level Eighty Nine has five time-shrinking dots, but they're so close together that it seems impossible to get to 100 without a collision: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/N8dYB.png) I've tried many combinations of neighbours, but there simply doesn't seem to be enough clearance for any combination of them to expand enough to total 100. How can this level be completed (without unlocking and using the secret power, which makes it trivial)?


title: Why do horses shake their head "no" even when saddled?

text: I was playing survivalcraft this morning. I was riding my black horse when all of a sudden it stopped. When I attempted to make it move again it shook its head no. The horse was already saddled. What's going on? Is it a glitch? Is the horse tired? What?


title: Are there punishments for not playing for awhile?

text: I've been wondering if there are things like cockroaches and weeds that punish you for not playing the game long enough. If so, is there a cheat for it?


title: What is the efficient sound configuration for CS:GO?

text: In this video, this guy's game sound is very sensitive. He can easily hear burning car's sound while he was passing near. So is there and config to do so, like some console commands?


title: What's the most efficient way to travel with your lamp lit?

text: In Sunless Sea, you'll travel to exotic places in a steamboat, meet new and exciting denizens, and then die in some gristly manner or another. I'm curious about the "travel" part: **you can go fast or slow, and I'd like to know which method is more efficient (in money-per-distance terms) when you have your lamp on.** (If you leave the lamp off, you pick up Terror, and then your crew eventually goes mad and/or mutinies. I'm trying to avoid that particular death at the moment.) There are two things that make this more complicated, and might make fast travel more efficient than slow travel, even if the engine power itself is less efficient:   1. Your lamp burns fuel   2. Your crew eat supplies (I've never managed to upgrade the tramp steamer, so I never have more than 10 crew) So: which speed burns more money per kilometer? By how much? (I'm aware that Sunless Sea is currently in Early Access, and the devs might well tweak the fuel-consumption formula later.)


title: Mun Numbers and Data in Ksp?

text: In Kerbal Space Program, even with using plugins that show data like I need, I can never find a conversion or something that will show the required fuel needed get the Delta V to reach a Mun encounter. Where can I find these values and if there is a conversion, where could I find it? And if it is known, how do you read the numbers on the Kerbal Engineering Redux plugin?


title: Why is the air combat auto-resolve option not available? (or: Is there a way to re-enable auto-resolve?)

text: I played Xenonauts for a couple of hours on a Windows PC and I was able to use the **auto-resolve** option for the basic repetitive air combat scenarios. Now, after finding a Mac version (from Desura), I see that there is no auto- resolve option available at all. Is this a bug, or am I simply missing the option to enable it? I'm playing normal difficulty, but I'm not sure if that makes a difference or not. EDIT: version 1.07 from Desura Apparently auto-resolve is disabled on Mac and Linux versions (http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php/2576-Mac-bug- reports/page28?highlight=autoresolve) I guess my new question is "Is there a way to re-enable auto-resolve"


title: How do I gain knowledge about various monsters?

text: Everytime I kill a monster I gain a count towards knowledge of that monster. I've gotten enough kills(bottom corner shows 3/3), which _should_ be the same as reading a book on that monster. However, when I go into my journal, it doesn't show any entries on that monster and I still need to read the book. Is this a bug? How do I fix it?


title: How can I counter Damage over Time?

text: I recently played a match and ran up against Twitch the Plague Rat, which seemed to do incredible amounts of damage over time. Is there a good way, perhaps based on items, to counter damage over time in League of Legends?


title: I don't understand how naming works

text: Example: I read a red spellbook, it crumbles and blinds me. It then asks me what to call it. What's the point of this? What am I supposed to do? I've read the NetHackWiki on the naming article but I don't understand what the hell it's used for. Thanks in advance.


title: Does playing racing games with a wheel and pedals affect your real-world driving?

text: I am worried that if I got used to pulling the 'stunts' one would pull in video games with the same physical interface of a real car, it could lead me to bringing the same 'stunts' on real streets. Ugh. Is there any research on this topic? Do you have experiences to share? Please bring more to the table than just your opinion.


title: Best level grind for a Hunter from 34-45?

text: So, last night was the fourth night strike out of getting people to group up for a Garth Agarwen runs. I am told players don't like that zone. So... As a rather new player to LOTRO, where can a Hunter go to gain xp quickly if grouping is not an option? Keeping in mind I loathe the fetch quests in the game, they take forever.


title: Why is Zerg considered behind if they don't have 1 more base than their opponent?

text: Often times in gamecasts, I hear the commentator saying how the Zerg player must always stay one expansion ahead of the other player, most importantly in the start of the game. Why is that? Wouldn't you consider that imbalanced? Or does it balance out somehow by Zerg being able to expand with more ease?


title: Official List of Perks for Fallout: New Vegas

text: Does anyone know the list for all perks in Fallout: New Vegas?


title: Is there a per turn gold cost to allying with a city-state?

text: Obviously there can be a cost involved with getting a city-state to ally with you, in the sense that you gift them gold to get reputation. But I noticed in my game the other night that allying with a city-state to get their resources appeared to cause my gold per turn to fall precipitously. Am I now paying maintenance on the roads that are in their territory? Are there other possible explanations?


title: What settings help to reduce CPU load?

text: I made a topic here about why my Fallout 3 runs better on Medium settings than low. So it seems that my CPU is a bit of a bottleneck. Which settings are mainly CPU dependent so I can adjust them? ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/SQ3of.jpg)


title: Why won't my music play?

text: It's possible to play your own music in Euro Truck Simulator 2 by putting music files in your music folder. I've done this, and the music does show up in the in-game music list, but when I play the music it doesn't do anything. I'm trying to play MP3 files, which according to the readme file and online resources is supported by the game. What do I need to do to get my music to play in-game?


title: Is there a bug with the "Dedicated to Crimson" Achievement?

text: I know I am a little behind the ball, but I just recently completed all chapters in the first 5 episodes of Spartan Ops. I believe this entitles me to the "Dedicated to Crimson" Achievement. > Dedicated to Crimson > > Completed all chapters in the first 5 episodes of Spartan Ops on any > difficulty. I can look in the "Play Chapters" menu and see that all chapters are completed at Heroic or better (most via matchmaking). Why have I not received the achievement?


title: Can i gift one game twice on Steam?

text: I’ve received a game on Steam as a gift. I’ve downloaded it and then it was put into my Steam inventory. I gifted it to a friend, and after that the game was still in my inventory. Can I give it twice without my friend losing his copy?


title: Which weapons/shields/items/etc. talk?

text: I came across an article on Kataku and it showed a sniper rifle (not sure which one) that actually talked while reloading, and shooting. Here is a video the writer posted of it in action. I actually have a few small questions _(I don't want to spam them in separate questions)_ :   * Which weapons/shields/items/etc. talk to you? _(mention if I need DLC)_   * Do the weapons/shields/items/etc. that talk depend on which character you have? _(mention if I need DLC)_


title: How Do I Use Docking Clamps?

text: I've built the following ship, which is capable of taking me to the Mun. However, with some careful piloting, I can make it into a stable Mun orbit with a bunch of fuel still left in the second-to-last stage. So if I want to land on the Mun, I have to decouple my lander module from the rest of the ship, and abandon any spare fuel I might have left in the tank. So, I came up with the idea of using a docking clamp to attach the capsule to the main ship instead, so that I can leave my fuel in orbit when I want to land, and return to it later after returning to orbit from the surface. Only problem is, I have no idea how docking clamps work. I'll learn how to approach docking maneuvers later, what I'd like to know NOW is how I should build the connection between the two sections to make this possible. I've circled the current decoupler in the image below. ![Appalling Lander Mk1](http://i.stack.imgur.com/3xmVM.png)


title: What does it mean to have a golden complete?

text: After playing McPixel for a while, I completed a level and got a golden background. Normally they are white, but this time it's Gold! Does this mean something special? I know it doesn't mean that I beat it on the first try, because I certainly did not. Also, I didn't get a gold one for the ones I did beat on the first try. It also does not mean I hit a bonus round that time. ![Gold Icon](http://i.stack.imgur.com/FcjKU.png) To help explain the picture:   * White backgrounds mean the level was completed   * Brown means failed and have to re-do   * Black (not shown) means yet to be attempted   * Gold means ???


title: Do you get anything for beating a Bonus Round?

text: After beating 3 scenes in a row I was given a bonus round. By sheer luck I won. Do you get anything special for beating a bonus round? I haven't seen anything pop up or anything. If it matters, the bonus round had a bunch of me standing around and one lying on the floor. It was during the Baby section (Chapter 1) 3rd door (Desert).


title: Skylander Battle Mode

text: I just bought my son the a Wii console and the Skylander Giants starter pack. The Wii came with a nunchuck but the skylander starter pack did not. When we chose battle mode the Wii said both players need nunchucks. Can he play battle mode with just one player?


title: Is purchasing a building you've partly built wasteful?

text: If you're partly built a building, and then you purchase it, you still have to pay full price (unlike earlier versions of Civilization). Is the build input lost, or is it refunded somehow, similar to the cash refund you're given if someone else builds a Wonder before you? Does the same thing happen when you remove a partly built job (whether it's a unit, building or Wonder) from the build queue?


title: How does slow resistance work?

text: The spell "Willpower" can be learned and at level 6 it provides a 50% resistance to slow and immobilization effects. Does this mean:   A) 50% of the time you are not slowed when you otherwise would be   B) You are only slowed for 50% of the normal duration   C) Your speed is only slowed by half the amount it normally would be I am guessing that immobilization resistance works the same way as slow, so the most likely answer would be A) if that is the case. Follow-up question: Does the slow resistance from this ability apply to all effects that slow, such as monsters with the Freezing keyword? Follow-up question: Does knockback resistance work the same way?


title: What is a Speedling?

text: I often hear of "Speedlings" in Starcraft 2 but what do they mean exactly? And why are they so good? How can I hinder the enemy from building extensions with Speedlings?


title: PS3 not reading DVD discs, but its reading blu-ray discs. Why?

text: Having issues with my Playstation 3 not reading DVD discs, but its reading blu-ray games and not blu-ray movies. very odd issue. Does anyone know exactly what the issue might be? I'm thinking its either the lens or the drive board that controls the lens. Any insights?


title: Why won't Minecraft start?

text: After I click on Minecraft the launcher comes up but when I press play the launcher goes away and my mouse makes a little swirly thing like its going to load but then it goes away. I wait a while to try again but it's no different. I've tried taking my battery out but when I did it fixed something else I've been struggling with but not the Minecraft problem. I've downloaded the same version over again nothing. Extra Info I'm on Windows, I've installed Forge, I have the Millienare mod & a bunch of maps.

title: What ingredients are used to make a bitter drink will poison vampires when they drink your blood?

text: Does anyone know what ingredients to use to make a bitter drink that will poison vampires when they try to drink your blood. I'm also hoping this will also prevent you from turning into one. Can this be found by playing an earlier version of Elder Scrolls? I got this from a book I found and read, "DE RERUM DIRENNIS" by Vorian Direnni. In it the writer mentions that Asliel Direnni, his ancestor, once made a bitter tasting drink and gave it to a girl, whom a vampire was feasting on at night. It poisoned her blood for the vampire, but left her unharmed. When the vampire drank her blood, he was found as dust the next morning. The book does not say if it paralyzed him, causing him to burn up in the daylight, or if it turned him to dust


title: If two people who have never played co-op before play together, will they both get the "Professor Portal" achievement?

text: Neither this question nor this question covered this. I have not yet played any Portal 2 co-op (online or offline), and neither has someone else. Will the achievement unlock for:   * Both of us?   * One of us?   * Neither of us?


title: Is there a way to guarantee every block is collected in info obsidian?

text: I have an info obsidian farm, which I'm trying to set up to AFK. Unfortunately, I seem unable to guarantee every mined block is picked up by my hopper system. In the image below, I have a minecart hopper underneath the solid obsidian block, and hoppers completely surrounding the obsidian block. (even underneath the solid blocks). Yet, you can see in the screen shot, they aren't grabbing that obsidian. This happens about 1 in 15 blocks that I mine. Thoughts on how to set up hoppers to catch that errant obsidian? ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/AS0pf.png)


title: Can a villager destroy my orchard?

text: Let's say my town fruit is pears, and I plant 3-4 orange trees in a cluster for ease of picking. Can a new villager pick that exact spot for his house and destroy my ability to get oranges? And if so, is there anything I can do to stop this? Does the answer change if it's perfect pear trees?


title: How do I get "The Good Stuff"?

text: The achievement description says, > Win a match by collecting only mithril Even with the highest mineral setting, getting down deep enough and being lucky enough to have several mithril deposits is uncommon enough and, even with the lowest AI settings, that doesn't seem to be enough to beat them. I've tried using a monster swarm with the highest spawn setting to keep the enemy out of commission, but the ramp up until the other team is overrun is long enough for them to score better than all the available mithril and, if the map runs long enough, I get swarmed too. I'm surely missing something. Monsters drop minerals in mixed batches so that would invalidate the "only mithril" aspect, wouldn't it? Can I collect relics and still get the achievement? What's the trick? What's a simple strategy to get this or is it simply a matter of luck and the AI getting terrible relics?


title: Are there certain sounds that only occur when a unit is born? Or is it random?

text: I noticed, that a queen always makes the same sound, when it's born. Is it the same with all units? The first sound in this video is the queen birth sound (the video is continuing with all other sounds a queen can produce)


title: I'm seeing people playing with cards I don't have, where are they getting them?

text: While playing magic 2013 in the online mode, I'm seeing people casting multiple copies of card that I only have one of in my deck builder. These are for decks that I have fully unlocked, mind you. Stuff like having two warren instigators. I own all three games for the xbox and I haven't seen any expansions as yet, so where are these extra cards coming from and is it possible for me to get them as well?


title: Where have I been?

text: I'm trying to earn my Completist badges, but can't figure out how to tell where I have and haven't been. I thought I saw a gameplay tip flash across the screen at one point about unvisited streets, but I can't find a way to see it again. I even checked whether the API could be coaxed into telling me how many times I've visited a street, but no such luck. There's also a complication: **I'm colorblind**. If there's a visual difference between visited and unvisited streets, I can't see it. So how can I figure out where I've been?


title: Wind Waker: Barrier Skip 101

text: What are the flags that trigger the cs for the breaking of Ganon's barrier? I've looked, but to no avail, even the speedrunning community www.speedrunslive.com doesn't know. Please help. Then it will change the speedrun Dramatically and I can get WR. Thanks in advance! Also, if there is a way to get the source code for the barrier, that would be useful too. perhaps some sort of working decompiler from .iso to .cpp or .c : Thanks again!(in advance)

title: Can I delete my Rock Band 2 content?

text: We bought Rock Band 3 and want to do the song transfer which will take 1.9 gigs. Can I delete the main Rock Band 2 content to free space?


title: Booking Monsters in the Bestiary

text: I understand that to get a monster in the Bestiary you have to hit a monster multiple times (as many as 60). Do all the hits have to be on the same monster, or can I spread it across several fights?   For instance. If I'm fighting a Blue Dragon, and hit the Dragon 30 times with the Bestiary. Then decide I'm a little too close to dying for comfort, so I kill the Dragon. Then can I go find another Blue Dragon and hit that one 30 times to get it into the bestiary?


title: How do I hoard items effectively?

text: When it comes to RPGs, I am a hoarder. **Specifically, I want to be able to pick up all items, identify them, sell all the useless stuff, and keep everything that might be useful.** NetHack makes this difficult because:   * It is very easy to become overburdened, especially lugging around weapons and armor. Being overburdened and using stairs means you'll probably fall down them.   * In many cases, there are many more items than there are means to identify them. Things that could be sold must be held instead, on the off chance that they'll ID into something awesome.   * There is no player-owned bank or stash.   * It may take many dungeon levels to find a shop that buys what you want to sell.   * Lots of trips hauling stuff back and forth deplete food, a precious resource. In light of these restrictions, **what strategies can I use that allow me to hang on to as many (ID'd) useful items as possible and maximize my profits from selling non-useful items?** Right now, I haul whatever I can carry without being overburdened, but I'm forced to leave many items behind.


title: Gun-bros game save corruption

text: I have been playing Gun Bros on Android and yesterday the game froze (I could still switch out back to desktop and back, but I got the same game freeze image). I rebooted my phone, went back into the game and as I selected a stage to start a new game, the app bounced and it brought me back to the main main android phone screen. I was able to replicate this behavior several times and then I saw that my level on the top right corner jumped from level 46 to level 461! I went into Application Manager and cleared cache and then data of Gun Bros. I was able to get back into the game and play normally. However it doesn't seem that my character would take any damages at all (invincible). (note that i still retain all my cash + weapons after reconnecting my Facebook account) Are there any ways of restoring my character at all?


title: What can I do with all these items I pick up?

text: I haven't been playing Yakuza 3 for too long, and already I have come across a wide variety of completely unrelated and seemingly useless items. There are of course items with very clear use, such as weapons and health increasing items, but also: A coral reef, a broken watch, a multi-purpose thumbtack, a nail made out of platinum, a squishy ball and a myriad of other nonsensical things. Do all of these items serve some purpose? If not, can I perhaps sell them somewhere, or do something entirely different with them that I am yet unaware of?


title: Unhappiness Jumps

text: In the new Civilization 5 Brave New World expansion I had the unhappiness level jump from 2 to 32 in one turn, and then to 44 the next turn for no discernible reason. Roughly a third of my cities were puppets. I replayed this scenario a half dozen ways and no matter what I did the unhappiness level jumped the same amount within the same short period of time. Any ideas?


title: What's the difference between total, current and relative strength?

text: When you hover over a person in their dynastic tree, you will be able to get an idea of how many troops they can summon. There are several numbers, but I can't figure out which I should look at. ![Screen-cap showing relative strength figures](http://i.stack.imgur.com/Gat2g.jpg) Now, what I _think_ , is that the **total** levy is how many they can theoretically raise, when their garrison and levy is full. The **current** is the number of troops they can currently raise (maybe they've just been at war, or some territories are recently conquered). The **relative strength** I don't know. I thought it had to do with how many of those troops are currently unraised, however in this example the good King actually has a standing army getting their knickers handed to them by some helpful rebels. Am I far off?


title: How does TF2 determine the "Best Available Server"?

text: When I choose to play a multiplayer game on TF2 (without manually picking a server), after choosing the map type, the game informs me that it is searching for the "Best Available Server". To say nothing of often getting hundreds of results, I can do this, leave a server and start again and it will always go to one different than the one I just left. So clearly it's not using a basic single-item criteria, and likely it's ignoring recently-visited servers, but on a whole, what actual physical qualities does TF2 look for when picking a "best server" for you to play on?


title: How can I move massive buildings in-game in Minecraft?

text: Is there some way to move a massive building from underwater to above water in Minecraft? I suspect the answer is pistons, but how would I push the building more than one block? And would the water blocks covering the building stay on top of if after the building is out of water? How would I stop it after it is at surface level? This will be on a private server, where I am admin. Bukkit will be used, in case someone knows a plugin to do this.

I mean there's no sfx anymore, and if the music is playing when you start a scene, the music doesn't cut off like it should. iPhone5 IOS 7.04 Game 1.3.2700, Data 1.4.0.0 Have rebooted the phone, tried closing the game aswell but nothing helps. Suggesting this must be a bug with some recent patching ?


title: Any looting strategies for Puzzle Quest 2?

text: I manage to match rare chests probably only in 1 looting minigame out of 5. Are there any strategies to increase this chance? As I understand 2 rare chests appear in random places after "heroic effort", and 1 rare chest appears in place of 5 in a row match? I am trying to find 5 or 4 in a row preferably in bottom 30-50% part of an available board. The lower you match the more chances that you will get heroic effort, but if not your chests will be removed sooner too. **UPDATE** : My new best strategy: Just do a match of a horizontal 3-5 row as low on the board as possible, and let luck do the rest. Heroic efforts give you the best chances to match rare items, and the lower you do your match the more chances you have to create a heroic effort.


In the third chapter, I can't seem to get my cubs up the river without one of them dying. It's always exactly one that dies, and the waves stop afterward.

title: How to get old 16-bit Windows games to work on 64-bit Windows?

text: Trying to play some old Windows 95 games on Windows 7 **64-bit** , I'm getting the following error: > The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows > you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you > need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then > contact the software publisher. Trying to run the application in compatibility mode has no effect. I'm guessing these games somehow rely on 32-bit dlls which are missing from my system, and I would like to know if anyone else has encountered a similar problem and is able to give insight as to possible solutions or work-arounds. Notes:   * I've checked this question but it discusses system requirements and not actual application invocation.   * The games in questions are Metal Marines and Fire Fight, but I'm sure many more might be affected.   * The error message above is not game-specific, it comes directly from Windows itself.

title: Why does over-clocking a CPU cause audio in Diablo 3 cinematics to go out of sync?

text: I have recently purchased Diablo 3 and noticed that the sound in the cinematics of that game was out of sync and always a few seconds behind the visual and the subtitle. I then read that overclocking of the CPU can cause that. As I usualy run my 3Ghz 960T at 4.2Ghz I decided to re-set it to the 3Ghz default. The sound was now in sync again with the cinematic and subtitles in the game. All fixed.   * Why does overclocking the CPU affect the synchronicity between the cinematic and the sound?   * How come it does not effect cinematics in all games but only some (Diablo 3 being the first in my case)?


title: Skyrim guards not killling thugs in Whiterun

text: I am getting my ass kicked in _Whiterun_ by some hired thugs because I stole something from someone. I am playing at _Master_ difficulty and on _level 7_ so I thought its better to run around and let the guards take these thugs but they are acting like nothing has happened.   I don't have any other saved game and I can't take on these thugs on my own. What should I do?

title: How can I move things across dimensions?

text: I have some barrels with _a lot_ of stuff in them, and I need to move them to my new base in a different Mystcraft Age. I have already tried Portalguns from the Portalgun mod, but they seem to dislike Mystcraft. I could normally move barrels with the Gravity Gun, but I can't since portals don't work. How can I move my stuff **without** disassembling the barrels? This is using the FTB Direwolf20 pack.

Does it need to be on the computer? Or does he have to be linked via WiFi to other players? How do you get an actual player/guy/person?

title: Bleeding damage vs increased critical for a blademaster?

text: In _Kingdoms of Amalur: Recoking_ I'm building a faeblades/bow blademaster. I don't use any of the poison related abilities as I find them quite weak except for the top tier one. I also don't use the skill Enduring Agony. The way I understand it the thing about bleeding damage is not the damage itself but the weakening effect it has on enemies. Both bow and faeblades are all about crit but should I have some bleeding damage on my faeblades or increase crit chance? Here is the Reckoning Ability Calculator for my build.

title: Rogue pvp rotation Cataclysm 4.3?

text: I played Wrath of the Lich King as rogue up to lvl 80. I did some pvp but I never actually was really successful. Most of the kills I got were because of the difference between gear. I've returned to the game late in Cataclysm& will soon be 85 and want to go pvp but have no idea what to do. I am an Orc Rogue btw. Specifically, I'd like to know what the preferred spec for pvp is. It seems that most rogues go for subtetly as their main tree and not assasination(or even combat) in pvp. Why is this? Given the best spec, how do I play it? What would be the standard combat rotation? (Examples vs specific classes would be particularly helpful here.)


title: How can I steal things without getting caught?

title: Why won't my train go to the depot for regular maintenance?

text: In all games I play it seems like my trains are not doing scheduled maintenance at all even though they are scheduled to do so every 150 days. This only happens to my trains i.e. it works fine for planes, road vehicles and ships. I usually have path signals on my tracks - ~~but it does not seem to differ if I have a path signal in front of the depot or not.~~ Am I missing something specific to trains regarding the maintenance? Can they use any depot or are they bound to specific ones? **Update:** I made a minimal reproduction of my issue and it seems that the train stops doing maintenance when I put the path signal as on the image below (removing the signal and the train immediately goes to the depot). But I am not sure why that signal prevents the maintenance? ![Depot with one path signal](http://i.stack.imgur.com/yHmrF.png)


title: Does a Firestorm kill a Fire Elemental?

text: If you invoke a Firestorm whenever an Fire Elemental is present, will the elemental be destroyed by that storm or does it feels comfortable about it? And if he is destroyed, does it hit the mages on the turn he dies (i.e. Do you suffer 8 healht points if you're not protected against fire-ish spells : 3 from the elemental + 5 from the storm)?

title: How can I use Lucid's Virtu with Diablo 3?

text: While tromping through the ATI Catalyst driver problem I had the sudden insight that I shouldn't be using my ATI card (an aged Radeon HD 4300 series) at all but rather the Intel HD option provided by my i7-2600k processor. When I right clicked on the Diablo 3 icon there was no option to "Run with Virtu" as I had seen with Mass Effect 3 and other titles. What is the correct method for getting Virtu to take over and give me a graphics boost?


title: Named giant animal

title: Does the Pressure Point mod improve jump attacks?

text: The Pressure Point mod improves the damage of some melee attacks; it definitely improves normal attacks and the spin attack (attacking from slide), and definitely does _not_ improve charge attacks. Does it improve any of the following?   * ground finisher (the downward stab into knocked down foes); supposedly this is based on charged damage?   * jump attack   * aerial spin attack (sprint+jump -> crouch -> melee) I ask because I'm really enjoying the heavy AOE electric damage of Amphis' jump attack and would like to beef it up to more reliably 1-hit Shockwave MOAs.

title: I'm stuck and I can't move!

text: I can't see anything or go anywhere. At first, I thought I was in the void, but I realised I wasn't falling. I was sitting in a cart and I suddenly realised that the height around me was too small, so I started to lose health from suffocation. Suddenly my PC turned off; when I turned it on again, I was stuck and couldn't do anything. My health bar was full too. How can I kill myself to respawn? Or, better yet, is there a way to get me unstuck?

title: Play online without expansion packs

text: I recently bought the game and just finished the campaign and want to start playing some online multiplayer. Every server I attempt to join, I don't have the expansion pack for it. Whether it be the naval pack, china rising or second assault. From what I gather there isn't a single server that I can join that doesn't have an expansion pack as a requirement. And these things all cost $20 per pack seriously? This has got to be a joke and I must be doing something wrong. That or I am seriously getting ripped off here buying a game that has a multiplayer that doesn't work without buying more add-ons. * * * **tl;dr** :   Can't play BF4 online because every server requires me to buy an expansion pack. Is there a way to play multiplayer without spending extra money?

title: Magic Find worse for finding unique/sets in Baal runs?

text: It always seemed to me that if I do a Baal run without MF, I get more unique/sets and less rares. So I thought to make a couple dozen runs on Baal Nightmare to see how it works. After 15 runs without MF and 15 runs with 280 MF, I got more than twice unique/sets on the runs without MF. Is this just a bizarre coincidence, or actually you have better chance of getting uniques without MF from bosses since the chance to drop rares is increased more than the chance to get uniques by MF? However, on the official page I didn't find anything that would suggest this, but on the contrary magic find is better for finding uniques even for bosses. I'm a little confused so can someone please clarify this.


title: How do I survive as a Solo Elementalist?

text: I've been trying to play an Elementalist on the Crystal Desert server, and given the fact that the party system is bugged, more often than not, this means going solo, as my friends are elsewhere. Unfortunately, I've been dying a lot, especially in my personal story. I've been bouncing back and forth between Dagger / Dagger and Staff, and finding neither option particularly amenable. Dagger/Dagger has no real way to avoid damage, as the best protection it offers are Chill, Weakness, and Stun, all of which only reduce the rate of damage, rather than prevent it from occuring (and the stun requires you to be hit in the first place!) This results in many a time going toe-to-toe with a mob. If it's one vs. one, I can usually win, but I end the fight with half health (or less!) It seems to exist as a "Burst or be bursted" loadout, and I'm spending more time downed than I care to admit. I've also tried Staff, but I'm finding that too far a swing in the opposite direction; I've got good avoidance and longevity (two heals from Water attunement, an extra dodge roll, etc.) but I have to stand there for ages, plinking the monster to death. How can I strike a better balance between damage and survivability? Mobs seem to die equally fast (if not faster!) to my guardian, and she rarely takes any damage doing it! Are Solo elementalists simply unfeasible?


title: What determines melee damage?

text: I am playing as a rogue and I enjoy attacking from a distance with my bow. However, sometimes things get up close and personal. As opposed to Origins and Awakening, you can't have two sets of weapons, so I can't easily switch from a ranged weapon to melee weapons. Hawke however doesn't seem to care and goes off melee attacking foes when they get too close. So how is that melee damage, while a bow is equipped, determined? Is it only Dexterity with no other modifier? Does the ranged weapon somehow affect the melee damage? Is it worth changing to daggers when things get too hot, or is the difference usually negligible?


title: How can you get charged creeper spawners without any external programmes?

text: I have been searching everywhere (mainly on youtube) for ages, but I cannot find any tutorials on how to get charged creeper spawners without either MCEdit or NBTEdit. Is there a way to get charged creeper spawners without the use of external programs?


title: Is there a penalty for SCV multi repair?

text: Does the SCV repair scale proportionally for time and resources? This question suggests that repair speed varies from building to building, but what about multiple SCVs repairing the same building? Assuming I have 2 Bunkers that have 50% life and 2 SCVs to repair them. Is there a time or resources difference between:   * 1st SCV repairs 1st Bunker and 2nd SCV repairs 2nd Bunker.   * Both SCVs repair 1st Bunker then 2nd Bunker.


title: In what ways can I "dodge" attacks?

text: It's clear that mobility is a huge part of combat in GW2. Obviously capital-D "Dodging" (i.e. double-tapping a movement key) allows you to avoid damage. Are there any other ways to avoid incoming attacks?   1. **Strafing?** - i.e. holding a movement key. You can clearly still be hit while strafing. Does your chance of avoidance go up?   2. **Entering stealth?** When an enemy attack has been fired, but you stealth before it reaches you, does this have any effect on the chance for that attack to land?   3. **Shadow-stepping?** Again, if you activate it while an attack is "in transit" toward you, does it affect the chance to hit?   4. Any other ways to dodge?

title: What's the difference between the "Long Live the Queen" and "Royalist Ally" trophies?

text: I just completed the quest in Glitterdelve Mine quests and simultaneously got two trophies, but they seem to mean the exact thing: > **Long Live the Queen** - You broke the siege at Glitterdelve and saved > Queen Roslyn. > > **Royalist Ally** - You have shown unwavering support to the Crown. It seems odd to have two trophies for the same thing. Are there differences?


title: Does volcano avalanche really have 3 times the damage of the other runes?

text: Or I must be missing something. Volcano avalanche hit 4400. The other ones hit for 1600. That seems like a pretty obvious choice there. There are other runes that let you stack stuff to 3. But the amount of time required to accumulate them all remain the same. Lahar make the cooldown faster a little bit. But damage is still 1600 What's the catch? Does the 4400 damage really hit everybody?


title: Is there a strategy in Dragon Quest Heroes Rocket Slime how to catch a goody bag?

text: I need to know how to catch goody bags and where they appear most. Is there a strategy? Is there a place that they appear most often? If I could know, that would be great.


title: Does the Helm of the Dominator synergize with Gorgons Multi-Shot?

text: If I'm playing the Gorgon and purchase for her a Helm of the Dominator, does the lifesteal apply to all three of my multishot arrows or just one of them? Kudos if you can explain how multishot does or does not work with any orb or buff placer effect period.


title: What affects whether I get an elemental "hit" or proc?

text: Elemental ammo can "Proc", meaning they have a random chance of causing major effects like freezing/burning an enemy, in addition to the different damage they deal. What determines the frequency at which these effects happen? Is it a random chance per bullet (meaning higher rate of fire = more elemental effects) or is it more complex than that? Borderlands had a very complex Elemental Proc chance system so I'm wondering if ME does as well or if proc chance is different for each type of gun? I'm interested as this is important for the effectiveness of sniper rifles (and shotguns) because a % per bullet chance means they're going to Freeze/Burn an enemy way less often, making some ammo less helpful in those guns.


title: What situations call for what weapon types?

text: I can pretty well understand the difference between say, a situation that calls for the sniper rifle or the shotgun (one is better at long range, and one at very close range), but in what situations would I want to equip or activate a SMG vs an assault rifle, for instance? What situations are appropriate for using a pistol? Say, for instance, I see an enemy that's a bit close for a sniper rifle, but not close enough for a shotgun. What weapon do I reach for? Or in another way of looking at it, if I have a shotgun, is the SMG redundant? They both seem like they would work well in close quarters. Similarly, if I have a SMG, is the Assault Rifle redundant? They're both rapid-fire weapons. **In what ways does each class of weapon excel? How should I choose between them (either in my loadout or in the heat of battle) based on the mission or the enemies/situations I will encounter?**


title: What happens if I found a city next to a previously razed city

text: So I was playing a game last night where I was going for a Space Victory, toward the end of the game I went to war with Germany. After dropping the A-bomb on Hamburg and razing it to the ground I sent my workers in to clean up the mess. My conscience got the better of me. All that to brag and ask a question. During clean up I notice there was a tile with like 10 food and 8 hammers where Hamburg once laid. If I built a new city next to it would I get those production values? Or would it reset when the new city was founded? Or is it just a graphical bug? Note it did not seem like a graphical bug because hovering over it the tooltip said something like City Square 10 Food 8 Production

title: How can I get my grenades to land where I want?

text: My Shepard is a soldier and I love lobbing grenades around. I love grenades so much that I make sure my teammates have their grenade skills maxed out too. However, I feel like I've failed as a Commander, because my teammates seem far more skilled at grenade tossing than me. Their grenades always directly strike their targeted opponent. They don't even seem to need line of sight! Mine usually go sailing over their heads, or bounce off a wall back at me, or any number of other mishaps that I imagine have them questioning why they're not the ones in charge of stopping the reaper invasion. As Shepard, is there a way I can get my grenades to land where I'm telling them to or to explode upon reaching the target instead of sailing right on by?


title: In Terraria, what are the conditions to spawn a Goblin Army, and what time does it spawn?

text: I'm trying to get a Goblin army to spawn. Thus far I have:   * Destroyed 1 Shadow Orb   * Have at least 200 HP currently   * and have not seen an invasion yet this game. At what time does the Goblin Army usually spawn? When I say time, I mean what time in the night (i.e. 12am, 1am, 2am, etc...). Am I missing any pre- requisites to getting the army to spawn?

title: How do I get the "best" ending?

text: Some endings are clearly better than others. For instance, in my ending, I chose to blame Norman for everything, even though that clearly contradicts most of what I saw throughout the game. Also, the dead bodies at the start, and the reason for waking up in that house to begin with, were never explained. Is there a "best" ending, where these things are explained? If so, how do I get it?


title: How do I clone Galdos?

text: I noticed there was an achievement for cloning Galdos... at first I'd assumed it was a typo since the name of the achievement is Cake2 but I just hired a Hero with this name. Do I have to be a specific race? If you can help me figure out if it's even achievable w/out spoilers that would be awesome, but considering the specificity of this question, I wouldn't be surprised if spoilers are unavoidable.


title: How does XP bonus from Ruby socketed on helms interact with XP bonus from Torment level?

text: With the new difficulty system I was wondering for Torment 6 if it was worth putting a Ruby in my helm instead of increasing my survivability with an Amethyst. How does the bonus from the ruby interact with the new XP bonus from Torment level ? Is it :   * Additive : Put the total of XP bonus in T6 up to 1633% (1600% from T6 + 33% from Ruby) so a monster worth 100 XP now brings 1633 XP   * Multiplicative : A monster worth 100 XP will bring me 1600XP (T6) * 1.33 (Bonus from Ruby) = 2128 XP Thanks

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  How can I disable creepers block damage on my Minecraft server?   >  Removing some hostile creatures in minecraft Hello fellow minecrafters, I am making an adventure map with lots of fighting mobs in it, and I was wondering if there was a way to stop creepers from destroying the map (for obvious reasons.)


title: Is there a way to "turn off" creepers in minecraft?

text: I have this feeling from dealing with the files beforehand that there is some way to turn creepers off, the same way I can mess around with the way some modpacks work. Is there some way I can for instance turn creeper spawn rate to zero or something? That would be lovely. This is NOT a duplicate of the "how to stop creepers blow stuff up" questions. I asked how to make them disappear, and finally figured it out, using /gamerule domobspawn false to disable all mobs from spawning.


title: How can I disable creepers block damage on my Minecraft server?

text: Please note that **these are NOT acceptable solutions** :   * Completely disabling monsters (peaceful mode)   * Completely removing creepers   * Completely disabling explosions (TNT + Creepers)   * Disabling creeper explosions More exactly, I want the creepers to be able to spawn and explode, but without doing their terrain damage (they should still be doing health damage to the players). I'm fine with the use of mods but I'd prefer a built-in solution if possible.

text: When I got the game I got the N7 Warfare Gear DLC, I've installed it, but I have no idea what it does, apparently it adds 'Argus 55 Rifle, plus additional content'. Where do I get this rifle or do I start with it, and what's the additional content it's talking about?

Those staves are Staff of Armana, and the most powerful looking, Staff of Wisdom. Without a page for this item, I haven't any clue how to go about getting it. Where does one find it? Is it from a quest, or killing a friendly NPC?

title: Protecting objects in Terraria

text: I run a dedicated server for Terraria and have a bit of a problem lately with younger people (such as my brother or a friend's brother) playing and finding it hilarious to:   1. Cheat and give themselves stacks of 999 Dynamite.   2. Throw the dynamite into tunnels/houses/networks of both that take me >12 hours to make.   3. Throw the dynamite into the ocean/caves etc which ruins the exploration value of the map. This can at times be infuriating. I've come across vague references to protecting stuff in Terraria - is this possible? If so, is it something that I do through the server software or the game itself? Edit:   Here is one such reference to 'protected' tiles: Unset spawn point on protected servers?

text: At the beginning of every mission in Killer Is Dead, there is an intro video showing the Moon, the Sun, Mondo's katana and a stain of blood.   See this one for example (at timestamp 00:12):    For each mission it seems there are different texts during the intro video, but they go to fast to read them. Did someone already gathered them in some web page?


title: What is meant by "resurrecting a player"?

text: Civilization V's Fall 2012 balance patch mentions resurrecting a player: >   * Resurrecting a player will have both sides forget any denouncing that > happened before resurrected. > What is Firaxis referring to by the term "resurrecting a player"?


title: What are these corruption stacks?

text: I just spent some time in the Brand in the Fields of Ruin. While I was there, I managed to attain 12 stacks of "Corruption", for which the tooltip says only "Your conditions do more damage." Are these harmful to me in any way? How do I get them to go away?


title: Problem with Origin and Mass Effect 2

text: So far Origin has been working fine. I have installed both Mass Effect 1 and Mass Effect 3 in a folders I specifically chose because my main drive doesn't have enough space. When I try to install Mass Effect 2 however it will constantly tell me that there isn't enough space to install and then proceeds to tell me exactly how much space there is on my main drive. Anybody had similar problems?


title: Which melee(Monk/Barbarian) skills can't be dodged?

text: With the addition of brawling in 1.07, its now possible for players to fight each other, and thus the dodge attribute of some classes (i.e. DH and Monk) now becomes a major factor in some matches in melee vs melee fights. Its not immediately obvious which skills can't be dodged (for example, rend can't be dodged but hammer of the ancients can). What other attack skills from the melee classes can't be dodged?


title: Is playing a FPS with lower resolution beneficial?

text: I have a 1280 x 1024 (4:3) resolution monitor. However, because my graphics card is absolutely horrible I have to play every game with the lowest possible settings. Even then games barely run at more than 10fps. To increase this, I always use a **800 x 600 full-screen resolution** So the game is actually stretched to my screen. Assume now a player with a certain amount of skill in a **first person shooter** who has 2 setups:   1. game running at 1280 x 1024 resolution with a 1280 x 1024 resolution monitor   2. game running at 800 x 600 resolution with a 1280 x 1024 resolution monitor  In what setup would the player achieve the best performance? I was thinking setup 2 because the same amount of _content_ is stretched to a bigger surface, however reasoning further makes my brain hurt... Note: there are similar questions about stretching resolutions on Arqade but unlike those I'm not interested in the effects on the graphics card.
