The way I'd do it: explore to find settlement point, 'adventure' in it (similar to Bat's popouts I guess) to secure it, expend n torches to light it up, then you get it added to your 'settlements' tab and can start building
The settlement point has a size variable, so that you need to explore to find spaces to build bigger, more productive cities, but to get to them requires gear etc.
@KevinvanderVelden Yup. Settlement is a single square on the map, but you can 'drill down' in a tab where it lists the buildings in there (or maybe a sub-map?)
@KevinvanderVelden Maybe a settlement size is sub-map size
@KevinvanderVelden And building high-tier structures requires certain amounts of lower-tier ones, so you can't building high-tier structures without a large enough settlement, and careful town planning

Subversion, Git, Mercurial and others support three-way merges (combining mine, theirs, and the "base" revision) and support graphical tools to resolve conflicts.

@GnomeSlice May this day live on in history forever more. August the Second, in the Year of Our Lord, Two Thousand and Fourteen, The Day @GnomeSlice Got It.
And when visitors from another planet finally make contact with humanity, hundreds of years hence, in the peace negotiations following the inevitable war, the ice will be broken at that summit by the telling of the tale of @GnomeSlice Getting It, and so, a new era of prosperity and joy will sweep through the Galaxy.
I bought new bass guitar strings today but the ones I got are a gauge step larger than the current strings on my guitar and now I don't know what I should do, if I should use them or if I should try to return them, but I don't think the store had the size that's on them now, and I'm not sure if the intonation's going to end up all messed up now and if I'll have to pay to get my guitar reworked.
When you clone a repo, it automatically sets up a remote called origin which refers to the repo that you have cloned. This is now pointing to the upstream Rails project, but what you need is to create your own fork that you can push to, and then set up a remote that points there so you can push t...
@fredley The strings are different than the ones on it now and different gauges affect the intonation, but I'm not sure if this'll affect it enough that I need to have a technician redo all the intonation and tuning. When I first got it, I tried to do the intonation myself (and also adjust the action because it was way too high for me) but I was rather hopeless at it so I just paid someone to do it for me.
@GnomeSlice No, not yet. Meant to, but I'm bad at focusing on finishing games. You can save anywhere in the XBLA version though (honestly can't remember if you could in the Genesis version, it's been so long).
@fredley I found somewhere online to get them in my country (they're Ernie Ball Slinkys) but they're still like €25~ or so there. I just don't know what to do right now because I get really anxious about doing returns and more anxious about stuff regarding my bass because I'm still just a noob at this so I have like 0 self-confidence when it comes to anything dealing with the technicalitles.
I wanna buy a controller of some sort to use it to play games on my Mac but I was not sure what is the best choice. Is it the Xbox, PS3, or PS4 controller? I'm mostly debating between the PS3 and the PS4 although I would get the Xbox controller if there was a good enough reason.
My highest prior...

@lumbricuslubricant Strix is busy becoming a daddy, but I can tell you it was flagged as VLQ and he actioned it. Can't speak to it any further than that because I am running late and need to leave!

I'd like to work towards some specific parts in the KSP Career/Science tech tree, but I have no idea where they are. Is there some setting in game (perhaps with a mod) or online resource I can use to show me everything to figure out what's where?

> Only five years ago, our survey showed that 58% of our customers bought their software in a box, at retail. Further, 24% of them expected to be still doing so five years from then. In reality, it turned out to be 6%. Retail disappeared even faster than our tech-savvy customer base imagined it would.
Quotes on Mobile
> Mobile development is [generally] not viable as a business model...yet We’ve spent the past 2 years interviewing countless developers (big and small) and concluded that making games or software for mobile (iOS or Android) is not a viable business model yet. Discoverability is terrible. It is difficult for quality products to float to the top. They’re flooded with drek and the user experience for exploring what is available is terrible. This is not something easily addressed. Price sensitivity is too severe. Prices are traditionally determined by supply and demand. There are not remotely e…
@lumbricus that is the strangest definition of intent I've ever seen. The specific rate of a random occurrence can be empirically tested with enough data, and has always been firmly within our bailiwick.
If, after reading this, you still disagree, you have a close vote. Use it. As a moderator, I have no interest in unilaterally acting on behalf of users unwilling to put their proverbial money where their mouth is with regard to moderation.
And remember, as a rule of thumb, developer intent questions can nearly always be phrased in a manner that uses 'why' or in the future tense. Neither works for this question.
Hacking is writing a small cheat for the fun of it Cracking is writing a modular cheating framework and selling it for money Cheating is downloading cheats and running them
it's not a very difficult distinction to make
In general, if you are using "hacking" with a negative connotation, you are 99% likely to be using the wrong word
It doesn't sound like a fun, or pleasant, movie about a popular topic.
The general wisdom about people bringing up the topic is to just don't let them say anything at all so I guess that doesn't help.

I'm building a custom arcade cabinet, which I'm thinking of putting in a local bar. I know to do this legally, I need to purchase the arcade games or maybe license them. All of the information I've found so far is only pointing towards the option of pirating the games (downloading them). Does any...
@LessPop_MoreFizz Problem being, alerts are decided (not actually set in-game), but decided by the developers themselves. They are events that occur randomly but are set by the developers
Everything in a game is set by the developer, does that mean we stop covering all game mechanics?
I could see it if you somehow wanted to claim the in-game drop rate was wrong and you wanted to know what drop rate the developers actually wanted, as opposed to the one actually in effect.
When you're asking about how a game actually is and works, developer intent is only incidentally relevant
