00:35:25 ER: could be doing better, for reasons that are as bullshit as they are inexplicable
00:35:39 ER: by which I mean I'm sad for no reason I can trace
03:05:40 ER: hmm, darkest dungeon's light meter levels would be good to steal for refine soul levels
03:06:00 ER: radiant, dim, shadowy, dark, black as pitch
03:36:16 Devastator: "But he surrendered faster than Napoleon did at Waterloo."
03:36:28 Devastator: I though Napoleon didn't surrender at waterloo.
03:37:31 Devastator: Checking, no he did not.
04:35:48 ER: does adding valencite to something need an improvment slot or just a weapon with a payload atat?
05:05:16 Devastator: just a weapon with a payload stat.
05:05:52 ER: is there a limit to how high I can get payload on an infantry weapon?
05:06:09 Devastator: Yes, but let me open it up.
05:07:07 Devastator: You can do as much as aircraft missiles without too much trouble. More than that is very pricy.
05:09:19 ER: Purity RR: infantry size, hightened power and payload over normal inf rockets, limited range, limited ammo
05:09:33 ER: would that be a big project or a moderate one?
05:09:35 Devastator: You should be able to buy some old fashioned recoilless rifles with more payload and shittier than rocket stats.
05:09:54 Devastator: more power and payload, same range, and limited ammo.
05:10:07 ER: I'm guessing more base power will increase the binefit of valencite though
05:10:27 Devastator: I think you're looking at a one-monther if you add limited ammo.
05:10:55 ER: probably worth because stacking buffs on catgirls is good
05:10:58 Devastator: You'd be hitting a sweet spot with one more power and one more payload.
05:14:50 ER: would it help anything to reduce range further?
05:15:01 ER: Or are they already basically melee?
05:15:10 Devastator: Nah, sorry, two months for that.
05:15:36 Devastator: For this example, no.
05:15:37 ER: two months for further reduced range and 1 more power and payload?
05:15:48 Devastator: two months for limited ammo, more power and more payload.
05:16:25 ER: not bad if we want to improve infantry in general, then
05:17:12 Devastator: Do note that you need more of the explosives if you increase payload.
05:17:25 Devastator:
syv has the details, but one jet load is enough for a bunch of infantry.
05:18:28 ER: a bit odd to me that a jet load is the same as an infantry load
05:18:50 Devastator: it's enough for multiple platoons.
05:22:47 Devastator: if you mean load as in how they're packaged, I'm assuming your researchers can figure out how to repackage the stuff.
05:23:05 Devastator: they are magic omnidisciplinary x-com scientists, after all.
05:23:25 ER: I dunno what you're talking about at this point, sorry
05:26:13 Devastator: Yes you can use the explosives
syv sent you for your jet as other things if you want.
05:26:42 ER: I will use them for my jet, and acquire more if I want more :P
05:56:23 ER:
Devastator, could I change Nekos to use a Small weapon?
05:56:35 ER: I mean, strong, and powerarmor
05:56:36 Devastator: No, not at this point.
05:56:52 Devastator: you've made a bunch of changes already and they're almost done.
05:57:37 ER: Can their armor be swapped after being built or is that integral?
05:57:51 Devastator: It's integral in their stats.
05:59:19 Devastator: You can make changes or add stuff, but it has to go into their slots.
06:00:20 Devastator: which are, if I'm reading this right, [infantry] [infantry] [infantry] [software]
06:00:37 Devastator: and you're planning on having a free melee weapon fill the first slots and rockets filling the second slot.
06:01:08 Devastator: [infantry] [infantry] [software]
06:01:21 Devastator: That might change things then.
06:01:33 ER: free weapons go in the slots by default but I will absolutely try to put better stuff in there
06:01:53 Devastator: No, it wouldn't, I'm afraid. If it did go in a slot you'd be using two labs to do the research instead of one.
06:02:03 Devastator: so it's only legal if it's integrated.
06:05:06 Devastator: I might have given you a discount by removing the third slot, but I can't remember doing so and it's tough picking my notes apart. You can have a third slot or not, your choice there.
06:06:07 ER: Could I slap an exosuit in that slot?
06:06:21 ER: the one which gives [small]?
06:07:02 ER: (or changes an [infantry] to a [small]? not sure)
06:07:33 Devastator: That exosuit removes a second slot.
06:07:45 Devastator: so it takes [infantry] and turns another [infantry] into a [small]
06:08:25 ER: so it would be [infantry] [small] [software] if I took the three slots and added the exo?
06:09:03 Devastator: Also, Stirk's the guy who's researching those.
06:15:22 ER: what's the cost to having the third slot? just more money?
06:16:02 Devastator: more turns and more money.
06:17:41 ER: I'll say leave it as 2, then
06:17:59 ER: can use nuke guns, which appear to be [infantry]
06:18:26 Devastator: assuming you can afford those.
06:18:51 ER: I can afford anything if I save enough money!~
06:19:05 Devastator: Yeah, but you get no money if you do no damage.
06:19:13 Devastator: although you are in ok shape this time around.
06:21:04 ER: valencite jets should do well enough until then
06:21:46 Devastator: oh no, you're seeing some big kaiju now, but things can still escalate.
06:22:11 ER: didn't you say that 15 was about the peak
06:22:41 Devastator: 15 is the biggest mech anyone has seen before.
06:23:07 Devastator: and no, you aren't going to face like 20s.
06:23:09 ER: not saying much to say that the biggest number we've seen is the biggest number we've seen
06:23:21 Devastator: but it isn't a guarantee there will be nothing new.
06:23:46 ER: kaiju justice league pops up
06:24:01 Devastator: Well, what you would know is some of the previous big ones showed up more than once.
06:24:47 ER: when they're not killed, they stay alive, wow!
06:27:27 Devastator: It is important, they can only store so many.
06:29:39 ER: there's a lot of space down in the ocean
06:30:45 Devastator: That would be the case, yes.
06:34:54 Devastator: If you go for unlimited ammo, it'll be a 3 month project instead of a 1.
07:37:02 Devastator: blue wizard needs food badly.
08:37:59 Devastator: New Dream manhunt video.
08:40:40 Devastator: man who is better at minecraft than I will ever be at anything.

22:02:19 ER: that play with the ice boots was nuts
22:07:03 Devastator: could see it coming.
22:07:08 Devastator: "Why are you towering in a lake?"
22:07:21 Devastator: was glorious, though.
22:08:02 ER: I can see how they couldn't see it coming, though, because that's quite the randomass enchantment to find
22:08:24 Devastator: True enough. Still, should have known something was up when Dream deliberately made that move.
22:28:06 ER: a little bit of loud minecraft tubers though
22:34:41 Devastator: That guy is really fucking good, though.
