Re: Refinery Fees
It would have been helpful if that was mentioned in the help file or REFINERY maintenance command.

Re: If your mindsim could do anything, it would...
Tell me about my heartrate and blood pressure.
Inform me when I've amassed 1,000 marks worth of junk.
Play music from some kind of Space Spotify.
Scan the faces of people in the crowd and let me know if I see anyone I recognize.
Keep a schedule and notify me of upcoming events.
Allow me to write files to a "word processor" (read: IRE book/letter) and be able to put said file up on a public repository or narrowband it to someone else's sim.
Allow me, if I'm really good at hacking, to send anonymous messages to other people in my vicinity.

A few Cortana-like options.
Mindsim, start a timer.
Mindsim, set a reminder.
Mindsim, new appointment.
Etc. etc. etc.

Re: Cuisine — No beverages?
This is pretty disappointing to hear. After a 200cr + lesson investment to get a skill that gives zero mechanical benefit, creating a separate tradeskill for drinks aside from cuisine seems like a complete waste. There's no real reason to take a tradeskill right now beyond the joy of the writing things and adding to the game as it is already an expensive initial cost to acquire, plus expensive (albiet more affordable after the change) to create designs, with little chance that 20 people will buy the design to recoup that cost or that you will somehow sell an RP only item to the limited amount of people who even care about that stuff. I hope @Tecton and the team will take another look at tradeskills once the initial dust settles.Kestrel said:So for reference to those wondering and still deciding on their tradeskill, @Tecton has confirmed in the Discord that the lack of beverages in Cuisine is intentional.

Re: The tips and tricks thread
For future reference when it comes to IRE games... If something is between square brackets, it's optional.
COMPARE 12345 AND 54321, if they're both chestpieces, would compare your current one against both of them. It's not comparing the two items with one another.

Re: Fight Club
I've found pretty quickly that the threat of being outdamaged is a lot lower if you prioritize using your heal whenever its off cooldown and you'll get the full 20% out of it. Your offence isn't gonna take much of a hit when regenerating systems takes ages here, and it is much better to be at a higher health pool when opportunities to push your offence even further arise.

Make more comments about the world, my choice in quests, and more random flavour things as well like putting up your favorite music and such.

Re: Wikipedia - Balance (Metaphysics)
It's not entitlement you dolt. Complaining is literally the point of beta, you are SUPPOSED to complain about shit so that the devs get a feeling of what the player base wants.Praefuro said:Yeah that's my point. It's beta. Not the FULL game. Not all the classes. Not all the areas. Not max level. Even before open beta there was a huge sense of entitlement.
And I said that bugs were a huge chunck of it, as well as people just posting interesting discoveries, class insights, general frivolity etc.
So not sure if you're agreeing with me or what.
If you don't feel it applies to you, it doesn't.
But take a moment to keep in mind there will be more to the game.

Re: Wikipedia - Balance (Metaphysics)
You do realize that this is a BETA, correct? Part of the point of a beta is, in fact, to make sure that everything feels good and is balanced. You're SUPPOSED to complain about the things that bug you, not bite your tongue so that when the game releases proper things feel like garbage and it drives new players away.
The other part is bug fixing, which a good chunk of the "complaints" on the forums (like the one about junk value) end up being.
Appreciate what the devs do, they work really hard, but don't hold your tongue because you don't want to bother them: that's setting them up to fail.

Re: Mudlet Question?
Don't capture (?:A|An). You're going to run into a mob with a name that doesn't follow the format, and your triggers will be useless all over again. Just use (.+) to capture the whole name, there's no need to be afraid of it.
