I know what freezing rain is.

That doesn't explain how it happens consistently, or how no ice forms on anything.

[The Darkling Wolf]

Feel free to fix it and submit the code.

[Tawa]

B-but code can I not.



I'd fix it if I could.

[The Darkling Wolf]

It's as good an opportunity as any to start learning!

Or at the very least do the bare minimum of work so that other people take over and do all the important stuff for you, not that I have experience with that or anything, no sir not at all. *Innocent whistle*

[Gentlefish]

Oh yeah, rollerblades are bugged in the latest. They work exactly the opposite of how they should. I was getting speeds of 365 over bushes and small trees and 57 on nice flat road.

[Darkmere]

That's how they should work, right? 50 means you only require 50 ticks to move a space, where bushes are 7X that much. Try it while wearing a timepiece and you can see the difference.

[Tawa]

Nah, the speed starts at 100. If it's lower, you're slower and it gets red. If you're faster, it's higher and it gets green.

[Gentlefish]

Oh pfft right. That number's speed cost, not actual speed. Whoopsie. Lower is indeed better.

[azmodean]

Suggestions for better ways to let the player know how fast/long their actions are are very welcome, I'm not happy with it either.

[Tiruin]

Err, its actually right.

The number, if above 100, shows a decrement of speed. If below 100, it shows an increase of speed.

Try overburdening yourself to find out.

Erm ._.
Is there a way to...expand text boxes? I'm using Cata Experimental latest build (though I'm particularly sure this is the case in all prior builds) and see that sometimes text goes off the item description...and off box that I'm never able to see it.

[KA101]

Item descriptions can be seen in full in the inventory window.  (i) and then select the item.  (I) lets you select two items and compare side-by-side.  (Press "." to get to your own inventory when it asks you for a direction.)

[Darkmere]

And if it's a long list of long descriptions (like browsing all the books in a shelf looking for one particular recipe) you can bring up / and (e)xamine everything in a pile with a full-sized descriptor box and just arrow the selector down, instead of bringing up the action window for every item like your own inventory does.

...Not really.
Like browsing and seeing a single a Cx4 Storm, it cuts out in the description as it goes offscreen >_>
And I've no idea how to scroll down despite a 'vv' indicator showing more text.

...It's more on 'is there a key bound to scroll down large text boxes that cut off'?

in the options under graphics, change the terminal width and height (I increase both by 50%) and set the "sidebar style under interface to narrow. Save changes, close the game, reopen it, and enjoy. I find it REALLY improves my playing experience. All credit to artisauce's twitch videos.

[BFEL]

Micro I think she's talking about something else, its a problem I get sometimes too, even when the terminal stuffs is practically fullscreen.

Basically the little info boxes sometimes have more text then you can see from a basic examination, and she's asking if there is a bound "scrolldown" key for those situations.
I'm guessing not, in which case we prob just need to Darkmere's advice. Or immediately forget it and always wonder, like I'll probably do


Also: GIANT BLACK WIDOWS. LURKING IN BASEMENTS. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Oh, and could I make a request? Could you guys implement some way to read books that you have all the skill level ups from, but not all the recipes from, continuously? It's REALLY annoying to have to push "R, @, Y" over and over and over to learn recipes, when before he would just keep reading nonstop.
