Recently I downloaded the Original Planetside (one can play for free given that there account is restricted to level 6). I want to use my logitech dual action gamepad with it, however, I can't seem to configure the buttons on the controller in game. Particularly, I went to the joystick menu in th...

I'm currently running Starcraft through wine version 1.4.1 on Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail. Most features of the game work just fine. However, when I play on battle.net, my keyboard seems to lose functionality. While I can chat just fine in a battle.net lobby, the moment I join a game lobby it al...

By default it appears that the guns open fire whenever a target is in range, but at the same time, often during planning stage I would see guns that are fully loaded, pointing at a target - shouldn't this never happen since they should fire the moment they are ready? Also, how is autofire aim co...

I have noticed that when doing manual firing orders, unless you specify in the next turn to change firing coordinates, the gun will fire at the same position turn after turn.

Don't mark this as a duplicate, this is yet another plea for lasers! On gaming.SE, the lasers zap cursors from asking bad or off-topic questions. Studies show meta lasers destroy 48% of bad questions. On Meta, our spaceship is unprotected and leaves it open for invaders. We need to fix this!

Throughout most levels, you may come across a guard named Pierre who is writing a message to his mother (or in one of them, a girl writing to a friend about how all this guy Pierre can talk about is fish and cheese). As a running gag, it's pretty effective. However, since Pierre is, after all, a ...

I am aware that Battle Star Galactica Online requires the Unity 3d browser plug-in to play. It is currently only available to Windows. I installed the windows version of Firefox 20 using Wine 1.4.1. It ran beautifully and smoothly. Then I installed the United 3d browser plugin version 4.1.2f1 usi...

I recruited this demon very early in the game. It had an attack called Lost Word that I used once and automatically killed all the other demons in my party. I was wondering, is this really its only use? It didn't even do any damage to the other enemies I was facing.

When playing survival, bookshelves are rather costly as they cost 1.5 wood logs, 9 reeds, and 3 leather each. I would like to use the absolute minimum number of bookshelves to enchant level 30 items. How many bookshelves are necessary in order to accomplish this?
