What are all the ways to impact your trial grade in Outlast Trials?
Posted On: June 22, 2023
In The Outlast Trials, you are given a personal grade (and a team grade) when you complete a trial. It is a letter-grade style score (A+, A, A-, B+ etc.). Performing certain actions can increase your grade, while other factors like taking damage decreases your grade.
What are all of the ways to both positively and negatively impact the grade you get?
Question from user Timmy Jim at stackexchange.
Answer:
I found a decent guide on Steam here that details a lot of the actions, plus having played the game for some hours now I can recal . . . [

Going to play Hogwarts Legacy for the first time!
Posted On: June 22, 2023
I've had the game since it came out, but have been unable to play it because it was Summer, and my xbox would overheat and crash within 45 seconds of the launching the game.(this happened with other games, like witcher 3 as well) but now that it's Winter, I've started up the game again and it's working like a charm! Wish me luck, I'm so excited!.
Question from user ShootyGeneralB at HogwartsLegacyGaming at reddit.
Answer:
Dont miss the chests in the tutorial for some easy galions.

Can I save Burmano from Himself in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom?
Posted On: June 22, 2023
Darling Burmano is the in-house chef for Lookout Landing, and very early in my adventure, he asked for an apple. After completing this quest, the next time I returned to Lookout Landing, the Chef was nowhere to be found, and another NPC with a less-memorable name was complaining that dear sweet Burmano had gone to the Hyrule Castle dining hall in order to learn a new recipe!.
But that place is crawling with monsters! Obviously, I set out at once, cleaving my way through the horrors of Hyrule Castle (those black horriblins! shudders), to wind . . . [

How can you read the weapon icon in Zelda?
Posted On: June 21, 2023
Theres a small icon next to the weapon strength, but I have no idea how to read it.
The icon itself can be easy, it's the type, like sword, club, cleaver, etc.
But the color throws me; how does it read? What does it mean? What's the difference between a blue sword and a brown one?
Question from user Fredy31 at stackexchange.
Answer:
It's just the weapon type, each one has a unique icon and color combination, for example:.
for one-handed weapons.
for two-handed weapons.
for spears.

How can I teleport to an unloaded entity in Minecraft?
Posted On: June 21, 2023
I am using invisible invulnerable ArmorStands to create "warps" and "homes" in a map. The idea is that I can spawn them in with a specific name, and then teleport a player back to them like this:.
/tp @p @e[name=PlayerHome,type=ArmorStand].
These warps/homes need to be able to be moved, so I cannot just use static coordinates. .
The ArmorStand method was working fine at first, however I have noticed that if the entity is not within spawn chunks or a radius of the player, I cannot teleport or interact with it in any . . . [

What job would your MC Perdue after finishing school at Hogwarts?
Posted On: June 21, 2023
I think my Ravenclaw would love to be come an Unspeakable. We loved professor Hecat and with what we’ve learned about the ancient magic I’d imagine it would be the profession that helped her properly study it. .

Any useful strategies for finding a Nether Fortress in Minecraft?

Anyone have useful strategies for finding a Nether Fortress in Minecraft's Nether?
I got into the nether and wandered around for quite a while, but didn't find anything. I'm not sure if there are giveaways (I was looking for large building-like things in the distance). I've got a map, and have explored a small, but not unreasonable part of it. Any idea how many fortresses a single map might contain?
Question from user P.T. at stackexchange.

What is the use of making dinosaurs poop in Ark?
Posted On: June 20, 2023
I'm kinda new to Ark, and exploring the (awkward) menus I've discovered that it's possible to force a tamed animal/dinosaur to poop. Why?
Is there any actual advantage for doing this? Or is this just an easy way to collect poop for the composter?
Question from user pinckerman at stackexchange.
Answer:
There are two use-cases I found for the making your dino poop:.
1. Fertilization of Crops.
As @DisplayNameNotFound describes in their answer, poop can be used to fertilize your crops. The larger the poop, the longer i . . . [

Minecraft 1.16 Nether Fortress Location - Generation
Posted On: June 20, 2023
The new Nether update has been released.
I am asking about what is known about how the generation of nether fortresses will've been affected by this update.
My old strategy for quickly locating a nether fortress was to travel in the x direction as one is most likely to appear this way.
I've launched up multiple worlds and have attempted to use that strategy but it is to no avail - I often travel thousands of blocks without finding one.

Can I increase the speed of combat in XCOM?
Posted On: June 20, 2023
XCOM Enemy Unknown is a beautiful game, but you can only see every 5 second animation so many times before it becomes repetitive and self-indulgent. Is there a way to make the animations go faster or speed combat up in some other way, so that I can spend more time strategically exterminating aliens and less time watching my operatives shoot their guns?
Question from user kotekzot at stackexchange.

You can use the XCOM ToolBoks mod to speed up combat in several ways:.
