Like many of its genre, the objective of the game was to defeat an alien invasion using a lone space ship. You controlled your ship from a 3rd person view on rails, progressing through multiple stages defeating alien ships.

I can remember a few very specific details:

• The intro scene shows your spaceship being launched from a space station following a runway lined by floating lights.
• The game over scene shows Earth getting obliterated by a giant beam weapon.
• The first few stages were set in space, but some of the later stages starting from the 5th were set within Earth's atmosphere.
• One of the bosses was a machine that clung to the inside of a tunnel-shaped structure using its limbs

Many people have expressed that it's good to learn the meanings of individual kanji in a vacuum, but not their readings. The readings I understand; the correct reading depends entirely on context and there is no consistent rule for which one to use. However, I find that this applies to the meanings to some extent as well.

The logical assumption is that it's good to learn the meanings of individual kanji because you can use them to piece together the meanings of words you haven't encountered. However, many kanji have multiple (potentially unrelated) meanings, carry a certain connotation, or are only used in certain contexts versus other kanji with similar meaning. This gives rise to a simila

The objective was to progress through stages of fighting alien spaceships. I don't recall seeing any characters, so I don't think the game is related to a popular franchise like Star Wars.

Additional details which I may remember inaccurately:

• The intro scene shows your spaceship being launched from a space station with two parallel rows of floating lights as the "runway"

• The game over scene shows a giant red beam fired at and obliterating what looks to be Earth

I love the types of sounds heard here and here. Is it just a generic electric keyboard configuration or some other instrument? What specific kind of jazz is it and where can I find more?

This is what I've learned so far about the behavior of Battle Pets. It's mostly what you'd expect, but there are some nuances.

When the turn of a Battle Pet's owner begins, the following happens:

• If there are enemies within immediate attacking range, a Battle Pet will attack the closest one without moving. If there are multiple such enemies, it will attack one at random. Enemies on the same row or column as the Battle Pet are prioritized over enemies diagonal to it.

• When the turn of Amu's owner begins, Amu will always attack the enemy Vaath.

• If there are no enemies within attacking range even after moving, a Battle Pet will move towards the closest enemy

The Passive Supplier Module gives a high-priority destination for specified items entering the network, but only up to the amount you specify in the GUI. What if I want an unlimited amount of items routed there? The Active Supplier Module can request an unlimited amount of items but does not act as a high-priority destination. Do I have to find a solution in another mod?

Intended it may be, but seems awfully strange. I also don't understand the theme of the Warmaster subtype at all. It represents minions that are good at... fighting? Three of the Warmasters are humanoid warriors wielding some kind of equipment, but the last is a flying beast. What's up with that?

This inconspicuous mod recently caught my attention, and I'm hooked by it's power. However, I seem to have found what may be quite a dangerous bug, but I'm not certain.

When using the cable network to move oak wood from a TE cache into a redstone furnace, if I limit the amount of wood that can be in the furnace, the network respects the limit but seems to attempt to move the rest of the wood from the cache anyway. The result is that any wood beyond the limit disappears. I tried searching every inventory connected to the cable network and using NEI's item locating feature, to no avail. This came to my attention after thousands of oak wood disappeared from the cache in moments, far too fast f

After shying away from high-tech mods for being too complicated, I decided to finally dive into BigReactors in Infinity Evolved, and boy has it been a blast. After hours of tinkering, I've managed to get an actively cooled reactor running optimally and completely hands-free (okay, except for refueling), with the help of ComputerCraft.

The setup. I don't have enough cyanite yet to expand the turbine (I turned my first batch into blutonium before I knew what I was doing >.>), so for now my reactor runs at 3-4% capacity when maintaining 1800 RPM.

The script. I was determined to write my own for the brain-wracking and freedom of

Many features will feel familiar, including card rarities, disenchanting, pack opening, ranking system, and the Gauntlet (draft mode). Enjoy your stay!

I have been following the game for a while but there was no community that I knew of on campus in previous years. Any players/people interested?
