Q: How is damage calculated for weapons that can be charged?

In Fallout 4, there are a couple weapons that can be 'charged' before being shot. Namely, I can think of the Gauss Rifle and the Laser Musket. How is the damage calculated for these? More specifically: Is the damage shown on the weapon info from a fully-charged shot? For example, the Fallout Wi...

Q: Vertically stacked armor stands should have increasing scores, but don't

I'm trying to make a goalpost system for a custom map I'm designing. The idea is that a goalpost--consisting of a tall stack of iron bars--would have variable height, and at each block up and down the post there would be an armor stand. These armor stands would have a GoalScore score value which ...

Q: Could using ALT + F4 to close Saints Row 4 corrupt Save data?

I am pretty new to PC gaming after having a PS3. Didn't really make a switch to PS4 and went PC. So far, everything is awesome. However there is a thing that worries me; while exiting Saints Row 4 using alt+F4 in Windows, could that cause the save game file to be corrupted, especially during th...

@fredley i thought that was the freaky hairpeice

It's been bountied.

THE DRAMA THICKENS

OH GOD

user4704

...wow.

I hope this question is still going in February.

10:12 PM

I can bounty it if is it still going in February. #EVIL

@Sterno It was bountied ages ago

how is that answer at +78?!

And for my sake, can we stop talking about that question

@fredley In my world, it just happened

user15026

@fredley This, please this.

10:13 PM

@fredley I think you'll have to invoke someone else's sake.

For @AshleyNunn's sake

user15026

I'd like to get off of this particular drama carousel, if it's all good.

Only if she watches the Link song

(she can lie)

I'll put Friday on repeat and listen to it for the next 24 hours if you stop talking about it

@fredley DEAL

10:14 PM

@fredley video or it didn't happen

I made a ~~half-life 3~~ Diablo 3 GR counter

user image

It is very helpful, weirdly.

I'm thinking of getting the screenshot and calculating the percentage too

user image

Yes, that is a plastic paint roller thingie.

why?

I assume to make it look like one of those old hot rods. A shitty version of one of those old hot rods.

@GodEmperorDune Here's a live stream

10:17 PM

@fredley Here's when you can stop listening to Friday.

@fredley i can't see you listening to it

> DISQUALIFIED

@GodEmperorDune You have to turn up the volume, you'll then be able to hear my moans of agony in the background

It's also only 10 hours, not 24.

@Yuuki I'll listen to it 2.4 times

damn, @fredley trolled me again

10:21 PM

Even when I'm trolling myself, I'm still trolling you

you have a singular gift

@ardaozkal worldbuilding design looks great

yeah

user15026

@ardaozkal Oh, that's super pretty

10:22 PM

i was a bit skeptical when it went into beta, but they've turned it into a very interesting site

@GodEmperorDune Just like Lifehacks... oh wait

@ardaozkal the difference is in quality

@GodEmperorDune yeh it's a lot of interesting and cool scenarios to think and read about

That and one has fewer questions about sticky food.

@Aequitas but the answers are fantastic

10:25 PM

Ah, messy foods. The first great Lifehacks debacle.

i've seen posts from physicists, chemists, astronomers, biologists

Humble Firaxis Games Bundle. XCOM, Civilization and Sid Meier's games for a good price.

I flagged as opinion :/

@Chippies nice

this might be the first humblebundle i buy in a long time

Q: Why do I have to put my mailing address

When I am redeeming a code on steam why do you have to put your mailing adress and what happens if I put in my adress

@djsmiley2k how about for asking about developer intent?

@Frank is sid meirs' starships any good? i remember us discussing it before release a while ago

Note to self: never do a G-rank solo with LBG.

@GodEmperorDune I saw it. Went meh.

30m and T. Naja still hasn't gone down.

10:38 PM

As far as space games go...it's super simple.

the only game in the bundle I don't own and actually might play sometime is Civ Beyond Earth and idk if I want to pay 15$ just for it

I would've cleared this in <10 as Blademaster.

they should've had Civ V with all the DLC

although it might get added later, so maybe I'll buy it then

@Chippies that reminds me, i need to check what i already have as well

@Chippies Eh, it's alright

10:41 PM

@djsmiley2k it turns out there may actually be a valid answer to that question.

@SaintWacko I'd rather play Alpha Centauri again.

@SaintWacko Civ games are something I play once a month at best, so I'm not sold on it yet

maybe when I see what they add to the bundle later, I might change my mind

civ games i start, lose all track of time, and still am not close to finishing

All I know about civ I know from that reddit thread about the years-long running game with gandhi nuking anyone if they did anything

reddit.com/comments/uxpil/…

@Lazers2.0 not opinion based, steam provides information as to why. cc @djsmiley2k

10:45 PM

Btw, I always alt+f4 my games and have never had any issues with any games. A few games actually give you an "Exit Yes/No" prompt when you alt+f4

@Chippies y u do dis

@Dragonrage I don't think that's the ~~game~~ question he was mentioning.

@GodEmperorDune because I feel left out :(

user15026

So I am used to assuming that everyone interesting on the internet is like...nowhere near me.

@Frank ah maybe. that was the only new question i saw when he posted that.

user15026

10:46 PM

Then today a streamer I like was like "you should all go to this con"

user15026

and said con is like....40 min from me

@fredley once you go past a certain year, the game ends and you can continue, but the AI is disabled

I'll put Friday on repeat and listen to it for the next 24 hours if you stop talking about it

user15026

Because he is in my province.

@AshleyNunn Oh? Which one?

Q: Is there any Institute clothe that allow me to use Armor?

I like to use faction related clothes. I also like my armor. For the Brotherhood of Steel, I could use the BoS Uniform. For the minutemen, I ve got the Minutemen clothes, The Railroad doesn t seem to have any kind of uniform, so I use leather clothes/whatever "normal" clothes. But for the Insti...

user15026

@Frank Which con, or which streamer?

@GodEmperorDune I'll need a live stream of that to believe

@AshleyNunn Con. I've been to one in Toronto, but that one's in May.

@Chippies Read that thread

@fredley video or it didn't happen

@Chippies fredley may kill you for posting this

@Chippies Sorry, you lose

@GodEmperorDune Here's a live stream

user15026

@Frank Con Bravo. Its in Hamilton.

I listened to Friday for 31 minutes

user15026

@Frank AN, I assume?

10:48 PM

And Chippies lost you guys the game

Well played, @Chippies

user15026

(Either that or FanExpo, but iirc its later in the summertime)

no re

@fredley can I alt+f4 now?

@Chippies ಠ_ಠ

Be my guest

or will that corrupt the bridge?

10:49 PM

Bridge is already maximally corrupted

@Chippies the bridge was already corrupt

><

It actually died earlier today

@AshleyNunn That's the one.

And yet, it continues to live

@fredley I think you meant to say "mods"

mods are very corrupt on bridge

10:50 PM

@Chippies well except for @AshleyNunn

user15026

@Frank I've a lot of friends that go to AN, I've not been myself

I saw Jessica Nigri at PopExpo once

Now, do I play Xenoblade, or work on constructing my kit the rest of the way?

@GnomeSlice she's named after a sushi?

I didn't like go up to meet her but I SAW her

user15026

10:50 PM

(Cons are usually too many people for me)

@GodEmperorDune Idk, she mods stealthily, so I don't really know how corrupt she is

@GodEmperorDune I don't think so, maybe?

For reference: here is the shininess of my current model:

user15026

@Chippies I'm a ninja

user15026

10:51 PM

That is VERY SHINY.

@Frank that looks real shiny

man i keep getting hiveminded today

My new paint technique paid off.

@AshleyNunn step out of the shadows, nuke a user, step back into the shadows.

HEY PEOPLE, IT'S CALLED RIGHT OF WAY, NOT LEFT OF WAY.

@Chippies she does not nuke, she assimilate all users into the cyber nanite overmind

10:53 PM

I haven't even applied final gloss to the parts yet. >< I can just imagine how that'll look.

I shouldn't be almost colliding head-on with you when I'm almost on the grass.

user15026

@Frank The shiniest. Like see it from space sort of sparkle.

This thorns crusader is hilarious. It's literally enemies killing themselves and their friends by attacking me.

@Yuuki Why are you texting and driving

@AshleyNunn is the most stealthy mod, so everyone assumes everything she does works perfectly. And since we have no evidence to prove otherwise, we shall continue under this assumption

it is a perfect example of Newton's 1st law applied to nonphysical things.

10:56 PM

@Dragonrage wat

Good night bridge

@GodEmperorDune Something about "mental inertia", I guess

that's not how F=ma works!

@GodEmperorDune Innocent until proven guilty is just an application of Newton's 1st law.

@murgatroid99 correct

@GodEmperorDune That's not Newton's first law

@Dragonrage No it isn't

10:57 PM

Nobody's made my decision for me yet! Bridge, you have failed.

@murgatroid99 i wanted to make a loosely related physics and star wars joke

play the game

However close the metaphor may be, Newton's first law specifically applies to physical motion

user15026

@Frank What decision are we making? :)

@Frank what decision is this? i shall make it for you without delay

10:58 PM

7 mins ago, by Frank

Now, do I play Xenoblade, or work on constructing my kit the rest of the way?

@Frank kit

play the game

user15026

Does that mean more shiny bits?

@Frank both at the same time

@AshleyNunn Yes!

...Plus I still have to stuff LEDs into it.

And that's going to take experimentation.

10:58 PM

@Frank ooooh shiny lights. do that one

Q: When you die, what contributes to your "Score"?

When you die, 3 things happen. You swear A message appears in the chat log describing how you died A "You died" sreen apppears, with the options to quit or respawn, and a "Score". What contributes to this score? (And for extra points, how much is everything worth? Eg. Surviving 1 day = 10 p...

@Dragonrage Well, less shiny than sparkly, I'm thinking.

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment isnt this simply a subset of travel?

user15026

@Frank I vote kit, then. I'm a sucker for lights and shine.

10:59 PM

But how that'll turn out, we'll all have to see.

@Frank make sure to take pics and show them to us

preferably when im online to view them

@Dragonrage That's going to take days.

I'm sorta fudging the whole LED shtick; I'm making it up as I go.

Meanwhile

@Frank i didnt say you had to do it now, just when its done i would like to see then end result as it looks quite good as it is

@fredley sigh

50 mins ago, by fredley

Please don't post Trump

@GodEmperorDune I posted BBC news about Trump

lol

:(

Top Trumps

The best reason to vote for Trump is so we can have more walls. Walls are nice, we can paint them to look like nature.

11:02 PM

Welcome to 2016, the year where every artist you've ever loved dies

@Dragonrage I can post some final construction pics today, I think. That'd work.

But with LEDs and shinyness? Not enough time, I don't think.

@fredley i do like how the BBC clearly marks when it goes from facts to analysis

@fredley Dated November, 2010. I don't think this counts as news

@GnomeSlice zircon's been around for so long, i'm surprised how low the subscriber count is

@Yuuki That concept is cold comfort when physics comes to play, though.

@Yuuki not in all countries

@Frank I was more speaking about pedestrian-on-pedestrian collision, but yeah.

@Dragonrage I'm pretty sure a car driving onto the sidewalk is at least a minor no-no in most countries.

@GodEmperorDune I swear he's the Brandon Sanderson of electrpnic music, he can do ANY style and make it work

he doesnt actually have a very big library pf music though

considering how long he's been around

@GnomeSlice i remember his vg remix stuff from like 10 years ago

but yeah he doesn't put out that much material

He does game music too, they were a good collab on globulous

user15026

@GodEmperorDune I suck as a disco bandit, I don't have good weapons and everything I find seems to need muscle which is not my jam :(

but ranged uses moxie
