Depletion Zone Puns

I don't know if anyone notice that recently asteroid in save zone had decreased rapidly, where we have to fly at least 30km in order to find a thing. And I've noticed that the tutorial which it show you where to find your first asteroid is completely useless, since those marked locations have no asteroid around them.

I have a friend who joined the game even have a difficulty to complete those tutorials since he has absolutely no idea about the mechanism of the astroid. He end up near 40km from save zone to mine his first asteroid. (Maybe is his bad luck:)

My concern is, it will be much difficult for new players to start up time to time and there is a point where asteroid will completely depleted. New players then have to fly outside the save zone in order to start up. With the current depletion rate, I believe this situation will happen soon, maybe within 2 to 3 months will be my prediction.

So is there any solution to this problem? Maybe astroid regenerate only in those mining tutorials may help new players? Or they have to find old players and forced to join factions?

So as I am picturing it, since we have two intrinsic SC with the same concentration of p and n on both sides, unlike in a PN junction where electrons flow from n to p and holes flow from p to n, leaving n-side positively charged and p-side negatively charged which leads to an electric field, creating band bending an depletion zone.

Meanwhile, I picture the heterojunction of two intrinsic SC, here due to diffusions electrons and holes will difuse from SC A to SC B at the same rate (although electron mobility and hole mobility is different which may be the difference), which would mean there is no positive/negative charge on either side and thus no depletion zone/band bending.

Am I understanding this right?

Hi all, pretty new to the game but having a great time so far.

Looking at the various videos and posts on need zones I'm not too clear on how the number of animals attached to them changes as I hunt.

Say there are 5 deer attached to a feeding zone, I kill one and leave to a different area for a while. Does the killed deer eventually respawn so that need zone will have 5 deer again or is that zone now permanently down to 4?

Does it make any difference for need zone size if I shoot male vs female?

Does the number of animals in a need zone grow if I leave it alone? I have quite a few with only one in it and I don't want to wipe it out.

My understanding is that the electron is excited to the conduction band, travels around a bit until it encounters the depletion zone, then due to the electric force in the depletion zone, is transferred to the n-doped side. Then from here it would go through the load resistor. Why can't it just travel from the p-doped side through the load resistor?

Also, for a band diagram for a solar cell, what does the fact that there is a "hill" from the p to the n side mean in terms of the electron's energy?

Let's consider an electron on the ''N'' type of the semiconductor just outside of the depletion zone. The ''PD'' is the part of the depletion zone it faces filled with positive ions. I want to know from the view of this electron why it won't go and diffuse farther into the depletion zone in this equilibrium situation. The view I considered is the following and I would like confirmation or for someone to tell me why it's not very correct:

1. Assume the zones ''PD'' and ''ND'' (the negatively charged part of the junction) as big charged plates relative to the electron with thickness ''d'' and thus as almost infinite plates relative to the electron. Then the electric field throughout space created by both of them is constant. The forces on this electron cancel out perfecte and at this point the electron feels no influence from the depletion zone. It starts to diffuse into the ''PD'' part but soon something different happens. As it starts moving a distance ''dx'' into the ''PD'' side something changes. Now there are three plates to consider. A ''ND'' plate with thickness ''d'', a ''PD'' plate with thickness ''d-dx'' and a thin ''PD'' plate with thickness ''dx''. The plates of thickness ''d'' and ''d-dx'' are both on one side and the plate of thickness ''dx'' is on the other side. Now the force on the electron isn't zero anymore. On one side the ''d'' plate force dominates over the ''d-dx'' force and pushes the electron back. On the other side the positive ''dx'' plate attracks the electron back as well. This results in electrons from the N-part outside of the depletion zone not being able to get the slightest distance into the depletion zone.

However this ''infinite plate'' is a very strong assumption. Without assuming that it gets quite ugly imo. Because then the positive ''PD'' part dominates over the negative ''ND'' part which is farther away. This means that the electrons will get a far distance into the depletion zone before the ''ND'' part will be close enough to start taking noticable effect in comparison to the ''PD'' part.

I didn't have a problem in the earlier betas but now after about 2 days and 20 hours in-game time, my miners are taking hours to fill their holds no matter where they get sent. Most ore and silcon stations also have hardly any stock which shows the AI miners are having the same problem. Even if I go to sectors with high values from their information tab my resource probes show >1kgm^2 for the most part. Antigone has about 5 on a probe but it's still taking an incredibly long time to get anything there.

I've basically not made any money from my 50 miners in the past 6 hours because of it.

I'm finding it quite frustrating to constantly run out of stamina when I'm out of combat just running around, especially in the hub. I would like to see stamina not deplete in the hub and deplete at a slower rate when out of combat.

There was no sound as thousands of Terran drop pods streaked through space towards the weaver colony world below.

At least not in space. Inside the drop pods was another matter.

"Congratulations boys and girls, you are all going to be in the history books." said Sergeant Moore over their armor coms system.

"For what sarge?" asked a marine.

"You mean apart from being big damn heroes?" joked another.

"Because if I'm reading this right, our squad is projected to be the first on the ground. We get to be the first humans in history to land on an alien world." replied the sergeant, as the first faint rumbling began inside the pods from atmospheric drag.

"Something to tell the grandkids about for sure" said their lieutenant, patching into their squad's coms.

"Sergeant, Gamma squad is to relieve the weaver militia at the north gate of the shield generator complex at the edge of City Alpha." he said, transmitting coordinates to the Sergeant's armor.

"What about their shield? We aren't going to splatter all over it are we? I'd rather not be bits and pieces" asked Sergeant Moore.

"It's taken care of. The fleet's tactical AI is interlocked with them, and will be telling them when to drop their shields for a couple seconds to let our forces through."

The sergeant nodded. He had been wondering about that.

"The rest of the company will land surrounding the enemy column. Hold the line while we get their attention. Good hunting".

"Yes sir." said Sergeant Moore as the Lieutenant signed out.

"You heard him people, today's gameplan is 'hold what you got'. Everyone get ready, we're entering atmo now".

As the drop pods entered the thicker parts of the atmosphere, their outer hulls became cherry red and began to ablate, the superheated metal particulates released helping foil attempts to lock on with radar guided weapon systems.

As the atmosphere became thicker, the drop pods deployed their grav-chute and aerobraking surfaces, gradually slowing down the pods. Once terminal velocity was reached, metal contr

Is it possible to use a similar method to how we use silicone to covert sunlight into electricity; on Nuclear Fusion and/or Fission. To be more specific, if we could find a way, then perhaps we can make improvements to nuclear power plants and maybe develop a new way to handle accidents like Chernobyl. Is it impossible? What do ya’ll think?

Cauladra

It had been a few days since Leo returned from the slums, and the state he was in shocked everyone who was present for the ball. To think that Leo could become mana depleted at all was unthinkable after feeling that endless pool, and she guessed that maybe he didn't have control over it, which only stoked her curiosity even more.

Now that Cauladra was done with the rush of magical paperwork she had to help with, she was heading to Anasslia to drop her contract with the court. Despite the recent reason for her decision being her desire to learn more about Leo, the truth was that this was bound to happen.

Knowing Anasslia, she would have pushed for Cauladra to study enchanted stuff coming out of Telnar to see how she could use it against her enemies, and that infuriated her. Although Cauladra would love to spend hours testing and experimenting with the new runes, why would she settle for that when she could just go to the source?

Entering Anasslia's chambers, Cauladra saw that Qassria was present as well, but Anasslia looked a little irritated as she glared at Qassria. “...to do this mother, because you were right. I understand that it will be after Selaria is under your control, but I will be leaving as soon as that matter is settled.”

Anasslia’s eyes sharpened at her daughter. “While I am ecstatic that you've finally realized how foolish you've been, I thought I told you that you were to marry him. Do you not und-” She paused to arch a brow at Cauladra, finally noticing the passive observer. “Yes? What do you need, I am in the middle of a private matter.” She remarked with a layer of hostility as she narrowed her eyes.

Cauladra briefly had second thoughts about announcing her resignation at this point in time, but she should get rid of it sooner rather than later, considering Anasslia's mood was starting to deteriorate after the ball anyway. "Anasslia, I've come to tell you that I'll be terminating my contract." She declared to the surprise of both selarins.

Anasslia's speechless state lasted for only a few moments before she started to direct her previous glare at Cauladra. "If I'm not mistaken, the contract stated that you we

Welcome to the week 15 Official r/NFL Power Rankings! With an easy win over the Cardinals, did Detroit luck out or does Goff see red every time he...sees red? Did the Packers earn a close win, or like the Rams/Seahawks, did the refs tarnish yet another outcome? Discuss! 31/32 reporting.

AN : Finished chapter 64(end of Arc 2), so I'll be going back to add the Italic fix to previous chapters while I plan out the plot points for the next Arc.

I'm also considering either opening up the reddit or setting up a discord, although that will require other people for me to hand that off to manage, as just like Leo I am avers to management. :P

Leo

The preparation and trip to the slums had been relatively quick and uneventful, with Leo having to fly about two hundred soldiers over to the location, along with Elaria, Allis, and Sairiss. Thorin chose to go on ahead and was waiting there when they all arrived, but his expression was grim as he looked into the mana cloak.

Although the map had shown a thick smoke cloud that obscured the entire area, Leo didn't expect to see anything visual when he got there. He was wrong, uncomfortably wrong. It was akin to looking into a fogged window, the area itself visibly warping into a slightly hazy mist. It gave the space an eerie and ominous feeling, like he was about to step into the twilight zone. The rundown and abandoned setting of the slums didn't help soothe his nerves either.

Leo cast his magic map and used it to collapse and barricade all the underground routes into the area, forcing any kind of retreat to be above ground. He then waited while Sairiss directed all of the soldiers to secure a perimeter.

Leo walked up next to Thorin while gawking at the area ahead of them. “Well, that's not unsettling at all…” He remarked sarcastically under his breath as he stood outside the mana cloak’s very visible perimeter, about two short city blocks from the building he was supposed to enter.

Thorin grumbled in agreement. “Ay… This… This is a lot heavier… Spells definitely won’t form correctly inside it at all, that's why I said that your sound spell might not work, and now that I’m looking at it I can tell you that nothing will be cast correctly in that.” He informed him with a concern that seemed directed at something else.

“So like a mana inhibitor? Also, that limits me in a major way, what happened to you'll be fine?” Leo reflexively asked out of curiosity and genuine worry, because while he wasn't at a disadvantage, having nearly all his spells nerfed did cause his confidence to

There are a few problems that I personally have with A Study In Potions, and I'm here to list them, along with asking the opinions of you guys.

The first issue: Level and Characters

While the initial Level 65 mobs are doable with the help of the trial characters, the scaling of the monster levels makes the final level a nigh impossible if you don't have a team that's at least Level 75. And that's just the issue with the level. If you could use the trial characters every run, then it would only be difficult, but because of the refresh mechanic, you're forced to think about which characters to reserve, making the originally casual gameplay a huge chore instead. If you make even 1 mistake with a team for a trial, you have to start all over again, rendering your last 20 minutes a complete waste. This makes the players that are on the mid to low end of levels struggle with the stages, and are forced to quickly level up or rely on luck to beat the challenge and earn the rewards.

The second issue: Enemies and Room Design.

Now you might be thinking: "Room design? What's with that?" Now, the room is a medium-sized box, which by itself is perfectly fine. However, the enemies/enemy placement makes the room a complete death sentence. In fact, it's so potent that every single stage up until the second domain (third hasn't been released at the time of posting) has a problem with it.

The First Domain: Dusty Wrack

Stage 1: The hilichurls shooters and Hydro slimes are annoying, but so are every other freeze enemy comp, so I'll ignore that. The main problem is the fat fucking Geovishaps. In a medium sized room where there isn't a lot of space, their huge AOE attacks almost always hit you unless your name is Xiao, or you get a lucky dash in. In addition, 2 of them constantly spinning, jumping and slamming the ground doesn't help matters. Chances are, one of them is shoving you around while the other is crapping out rocks everywhere. If you're shield breaks, you're getting tossed around like a ping pong ball. The huge health of the Geovishaps don't help.

Stage 2: Stage 2 is probably the easiest one, but the mass amount of Mitachurls at the end is quite the annoyance. Their moves cover a huge area, which, like the Geovishap's attack, make it hard to dodge. They also have decent knockback, making it very frustrating to fight without a shield.

Stage 3: God, I hate this fucking stage so much. First of all, 21 enemies is way too much, especially for this time frame with

So i have been playing this game pretty religiously since launch , and put in tons of hours helping test things and find bugs on the PTU.

Here are some things that i believe this game needs to survive long term

1. If at all possible , devs need to really REALLY consider flight time and speed as something that is going to long term hurt the game and short term scare away new players. I cannot imagine what this game will be like with more than 2 planets/moons. 150ms is not enough to get somewhere. And the distances for rarer resources are basically silly for new players or players that dont have 5 hours to game that day. If the engine really does limit speed to only 150ms , then there needs to be a ship enabled "mini warp" that somehow gets around it to increase it to something like 300ms or even 500ms. Similar to how elite dangerous has multiple different flying modes with vastly different speeds. Im not saying every ship should be able to warp like capitol ships. But something has to be done about travel time without altering the size of the universe. Also. The warp gates are way WAY too slow. It should not take anywhere near as long to use the warp gate , there is no reason for this at all and its just built in wasted time. This HAS to change.
2. Ship cost vs pvp. Right now making money in the game is just grinding in the safe zone. Rare ores spawn outside the safe zone and you risk being killed or pirated. A (good) mining ship costs around a million credits. Which can take anywhere from 40 minutes to an hour+ to secure using a frame lock asteroid grabber IF you can find large asteroids fast enough. Right now they are almost all depleted and hard to find in the starter zone. Right now if you want to PVP , you are going to need a ship with weapons and the bare minimum cost i have seen for a 2x weapon combat ship is around 400k credits not including ores. This is ALOT of money for a newer player , and just enough money that running around doing combat does not make financial sense when salvaging/pirating really isnt worth very much money. Basically the costs of some ships need to come down big time. Or the value of other things you can sell needs to go up. The nuclear option for this problem in my opinion can just be separating credits and ores regarding ship purchases. If you want to buy a ship using ores , you can pay 0 credits. If you want to buy a ship with credits , you need 0 ores.
3. Voice. The game needs proximity voice chat , or text to speec

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

My understanding is that the electron is excited to the conduction band, travels around a bit until it encounters the depletion zone, then due to the electric force in the depletion zone, is transferred to the n-doped side. Then from here it would go through the load resistor. Why can't it just travel from the p-doped side through the load resistor?
