I'm upgrading my PC with a better GPU that could run games in 2560x1440. I currently have a 22 inch 1080p monitor and a 1080p TV, both hooked into my PC. I prefer the TV for games I can play with a controller. The small monitor on my desk needs to be replaced with something bigger, lie 27 inch.

Should the new, 27 inch monitor be 1080p like the TV, or would it be a good idea to get a 1440p monitor? I'm mainly concerned about the practicality. Like having to switch resolutions in windows settings every time I change monitors. Also, while I should be able to run 1440p pretty smoothly, maybe the extra FPS on 1080p would be nicer.

What does "Cross-Region Play" do exactly? And which of the two options enables it, "perform matchmaking" or "no matchmaking"?

Concerning the "Send Summon Sign"-option, which of the two options allows you to be summoned to a world with an invader present, "Disable" or "Enable"?

I've been googling this stuff, but I can't find a definitive answer.

At the moment, whenever two neutral factions share a common enemy, they can reinforce each other in battles against that common enemy. This can be very useful, but does lead to some completely lore breaking scenarios like Skaven and Dwarves teaming up.

So I'm working on a mod that restricts the possibilities based on faction or culture, detailed in the table below:

As you can see, it's really only the undead factions I'm unsure about (though thoughts on the rest are certainly welcome). Tomb Kings are no fan of Chaos, but would they also refuse an opportunity to

There was a heat wave where I live for the past week, so I hung up a sheet on the outside of one of our large windows, using duct tape. After removing it, however, there was some purplish discoloration of the PVC where the tape was in the spot where the sun would have been strongest.

I've managed to get rid of all the adhesive residu fairly easily, but is there anything that can be done about baked in discoloration? I don't expect pristine white is possible, but any improvement would be welcome.

When I first used the Singularity Engine during the expedition, it took me to an already discovered system. So it seemed pretty clear that the system you end up in isn't random.

I was wondering what would happen if I engaged it when in a system that contains a black hole. So I went through a black hole with a regular starship, used the space station teleporter to return to my freighter and engaged the Singularity Engine. I ended up in the same system again.

I don't know if this is commonly known, but it's pretty useful information.

I was opening up x-class modules for hazard protection, pulse engine, launch thrusters and photon cannon, noting down which ones gave me perfect or near perfect stats.

What I found was that, starting from the same autosave, the 14th and 22nd x-module I opened was perfect or close to it. But this was the case for each of the technology types. That's too much of a coincidence. I don't recall it working like that for s-class modules.

Is this known information?

I hadn't played NMS for many months, but returned when the Endurance update dropped. Am I misremembering, or is performance on planets worse than ever? Specifically when I travel on a planet surface, or looking around on a planetary settlement. I get significant stutters and massive spikes in CPU usage. I can even hear my PC making zooming noises when it happens, presumably the fans turning harder during CPU spikes.

Anything I can do? Anyone else have these issues?
