@Dragonrage For quite a while I had to toggle the sulphur box on and off in order to maintain either blast or blaze at the proper level

@Frank Yeah, that was the one I was stuck on -.-

Didn't notice I could slide it slightly farther to the left

fredley

I should get back into that game

Dragonrage

16:17

i must be doing something wrong. ive upgraded earth and water with pure earth and pure water, but i still dont have enough of the base elements :(

SaintWacko

@Dragonrage Enough for what?

Alkahest?

Dragonrage

yeah

or to use to upgrade me other elements

SaintWacko

I'd often have to pause the compressor, composter, snow, and... whatever the one below that is in order to get the elements to grow

fredley

@SaintWacko Oh yeah I went through this phase

tracking down what consumes an element is really annoying

Dragonrage

i need 1e5 earth to upgrade my water rift, but i only have 1e4 atm

SaintWacko

16:19

@fredley That's what the network of lines is for

Just look for a thick line coming out of the elemental machine and see where it goes

fredley

@SaintWacko OIC

But the lines are undirected

SaintWacko

@fredley Hm?

Frank

@SaintWacko You can, but later on, you need it close to max.

fredley

They don't point in a direction

Frank

So it doesn't help much.

Mad Scientist

16:21

which game are you all talking about?

fredley

Crazy complex alkahestry incremental

Dragonrage

@fredley the dots move in the direction the resources are traveling

fredley

5 hours ago, by fredley

Meanwhile, in incrementals

@Dragonrage I don't see dots

@MadScientist Play the first two first

SaintWacko

fredley

@SaintWacko wtfffff I don't see those

That would make this game so easy

SaintWacko

16:23

But also you can tell by color

@fredley When did you last refresh?

The dots just showed up yesterday

fredley

The day I first posted it

SaintWacko

But even without the dots, you see a big thick green line coming from the earth elemental orb, you can be pretty sure there's a lot of earth going somewhere

Frank

You whippersnappers, you. Didn't need no danged direction indicators to figger it out.

SaintWacko

@fredley Oh man, you are missing out on so much pretty

@Frank Right?

fredley

om ghthis is so great

SaintWacko

16:24

@fredley Also, a thing was added today that indicates when a recipe in a machine is turned off

Dragonrage

@SaintWacko that was actually added before the dots

SaintWacko

@Dragonrage No, not that

fredley

@SaintWacko omgggggg

SaintWacko

16:25

Frank

Heck, it took me about a whole day to realize things glowing pink meant I had an upgrade available.

SaintWacko

That little icon at the bottom

Dragonrage

o i c

SaintWacko

Cyan means the recipe is on but hasn't ever produced anything

Dragonrage

what is this meltdown thingy that just unlocked?

SaintWacko

16:26

@Dragonrage I'm not entirely certain

Dragonrage

it doesnt look useful

Frank

It means don't run out of coolant.

Or you'll lose everything that uses it.

Yuuki

Huh, this is a weird translation of "Privet Drive". I think it's a mistranslation.

Frank

It's a good idea to pause Gale and Cryospires at low amounts, as the more you get, the more coolant you need to sustain them.

SaintWacko

@Frank Right, but there's a new recipe that does nothing but drain cryospire/gale/vortex

Dragonrage

16:28

it just consumes gale and doesnt produce anything?

SaintWacko

Right

Oh

Frank

@SaintWacko It hurries the death process.

fredley

@Frank Yeah I'm blocked on gale

Frank

You're going to run out eventually, so it just makes it happen faster.

SaintWacko

Maybe it's a way to decrease your amount of cryospire faster so you don't have to maintain it

Frank

16:29

Happened to me a lot after alkahest explosions.

fredley

And ash

Frank

Couldn't generate enough coolant to sustain them.

Yuuki

I had to look it up and I think it's a problem of homophones.

SaintWacko

@fredley But actually the blaze decay process in the furnace

fredley

Hmmm, I'm blocked on blaze

Need more ash for a lot of things

GodEmperorDune

@fredley yeah but they're only one person

SaintWacko

@fredley Turn off the recipe that converts ash to coal

Frank

16:32

Ash is only used for compacting and coal reprocessing, I think.

user15026

@GodEmperorDune I didn't stay up all night! Just til 5:15 am and then I slept til 12:00pm yesterday.

SaintWacko

@Frank And clay

Frank

@SaintWacko Right, missed that one.

Yuuki

Steps really add up when you can just walk 1000 steps to a corner store, another 1500 to pick up some household goods, walk 2500 back home, go down the block 2000 to grab lunch...

SaintWacko

@Yuuki See, I used to get a fair number of steps when I worked downtown

fredley

16:33

@Yuuki 5,6,7,8!

SaintWacko

Walk to get lunch, walk a few times during the day

Roijan Eskor

I just found the first alkahistorian game thanks to @InvaderSkoodge 's question. It's really interesting.

fredley

@RoijanEskor Welcome, we've been playing it here for a few days

Roijan Eskor

Ummm.... I'm like 20 minutes in maybe.

@fredley I got to half of part two on a tab here while I did some other work. When I left and decided to check offline progress I remembered I was on a private tab, so RIP

Oh I figured it out.

This game has so many moving pieces.

Wipqozn

@Dragonrage DEfinitly

SaintWacko

@InvaderSkoodge Right? It's amazing

Frank

Too bad the ending is just...blah.

SaintWacko

@Frank Yeah :(

Frank

I was hoping for some more complexity once you accomplish the end goal. Which isn't even described anywhere.

Invader Skoodge

16:59

I can't tell if some menus are actually glowing blue sometimes or if it's an optical illusion from this terrible UI.

SaintWacko

@Frank The end condition was just the PureGolem stuff, right?

Frank

All four of the end golems, I think.

SaintWacko

Yeah, that was pretty anticlimactic

Invader Skoodge

I think I'm in a place right now where I have to just wait for things to "fill up".

Frank

Yay, a union query three layers deep in Access is throwing crazy union errors inconsistently.

And only when it's run this deep; run it itself, or a query that uses it, and it's fine.

Moacir

17:12

@Frank Could it be memory problems?

Frank

@Moacir Knowing Access, maybe.

Unionhawk

@Frank I'm accidentally looking at this again, and yeah, the network profile associated with this user is somehow intermixed with the other user I don't understand

like the network user just has "answered this thing", and you go there and that action is marked as the other one

something weird happened with, something?

like a merge and a split that went wrong or something

but that doesn't make any sense

Frank

@Unionhawk Well, that's got some network ban going on, and some manual unsuspensions.

user15026

Honestly, I'd not worry about it - this very much feels like things that mods/CMs are likely aware of/tackling.

user15026

If anything, note it to them, positing here about it isn't really helpful, I don't think

GodEmperorDune

17:17

i thought this was the only room that mods visited

user15026

Oh of course ;)

Unionhawk

it is possible that I am too curious for my own good lol

likely even

user15026

I would say that is very likely. Perhaps you should run for mod ;)

GodEmperorDune

yeah do it @uni

save us from @Wipqozn

Unionhawk

I don't know that I'd do that

we're basically the same person

Invader Skoodge

17:22

Apparently I have -0 water golems.

user15026

Oh, you're still doomed because it's still gonna be the year of @Wipqozn, just maybe you'll have a fighting chance against his tyranny

Invader Skoodge

This game has a few rounding issues :P

user15026

@InvaderSkoodge better than -1 I suppose :P

Roijan Eskor

My golem merger refuses to make any sand for some reason.

Dragonrage

if all else fails, @uni is wrong and @Wipqozn is to blame

user15026

17:27

In general, or only for @uni being wrong?

Unionhawk

both

also lol, OSRS added an update where you can get a permanently enchanted lyre offering unlimited free teleports to an area that's kind of annoying to get to, at the cost of 1000 bass, manta rays, and sea turtles (or less with some achievement diaries done)

now raw manta rays are like, 15k (up from around 1k)

Dragonrage

@Ash in general. pretty sure its bridge law. like @Wipqozn's law of gravitation

everyone is trying to get this at the same time

Ronan

23:11

@Ash Links have a bunch of pseudo-classes which can have their own styles, the common ones are :hover :visited :focused and :current

Probably because you've already visited the link it's using a that class

@Ronan Yeah it's likely :visited causing the conflict

Readability is my first necessity. :)

user15026

Notes beyond that?

user15026

(I am proud of myself for fighting with the calendar, it was being intransigent)

I'd probably either make the background lighter or put the black text at the top inside the white background

user15026

nods I was thinking about that too

Ronan

And the CTA on the email link needs to be darker

Memor-X

not sure if this is important, while the header text and website is readable, when i scroll down one notch on my mouse wheel the website is a bit hard to read

user15026

Actually all uses of that light grey should be darker for contrast reasons

user15026

Which light grey?

Ronan

> RECEIVE AN EMAIL WHENEVER THERE IS A NEW ENTRY ON THIS SITE!

> COMMUNITY CALENDAR

> BLOG ARCHIVE

aw, ffff I don't know which thing that is

user15026

Ronan

23:40

It didn't need to be black, but yeah that's readable

user15026

I might lighten it slightly

user15026

Any other notes?

Ronan

Last thing I'd mention is that your "RECEIVE AN EMAIL WHENEVER THERE IS A NEW ENTRY ON THIS SITE!" is a pretty wordy CTA, and the submit button should be something context aware, like "Subscribe" or "Sign up"

@Ash more that the blue doesn't go well when it went over that cloud, a minor thing since it's only evident when the link is over that dark area. a solution i would do is mimic that rounded box the body uses
