I'll probably start a beta thread and let people edit and proof read, as well as taking the plain text and putting it wherever they please.

It certainly can be! I can start super-duper immediately really, I've just been prioritising mapping.

There are other known prefab crashes (#4136). The prefab editor needs a good review.
Worth noting that was just specific entities while I was making those containers. Some are fine, some cause crashes, assumedly depending on complexity.

Yep, sorry. They're intended for businesses, so they know they can charge way more than they're worth. There were no issues with the ZyXEL firewall after getting it set up, bearing in mind it was used to keep patient records safe. It goes far above and beyond what you need in terms of functionality, but unfortunately there's a big jump between Cisco pseudo-router firewalls and proper specialised firewalls like this.
-
Not meeting all criteria, no. The cheapest I ever got installed at work was from ZyXEL. They were upwards of £100 each, and that was a bulk order. Decent value for money considering what they can do, but it'll take a bit of know-how to set them up. You could look into crappier, cheaper plug and play things, but I doubt you'll find a reliable one that doesn't kill your speeds and offer proper traffic moderation.

I figured I'd be able to offer some insight, it being my job and all, but it's cool. I even said "nah you do what you want" because I figured you'd get antsy. This is the place for advice! It might not agree with your preconception, but that's no reason to take offence. Me saying "you're doing much more than you need to, but if it makes you feel better then go for it" shouldn't be construed as an insult. I'm not out to get you. You can relax. I'm not creeping into your house of a night and taking down your wi-fi set-up. You're looking to spend too much money on an excessive solution, like buying a combine harvester to do your back yard. It'd get the job done, but it's not exactly necessary, and it'd seem silly. Nobody would deny that it's your right to do so, but you'd be silly to bite their heads off for calling it a bit much, let alone dismissing them and searching a crowd of a thousand for the one guy who can offer you the best combine harvester model for your back yard.

Erm... I didn't invite anyone to do anything. I made a joke about my username, and you decided to google it (morbid curiosity). Anyway this is really going off-topic.
Well you were plugging your Patreon so I went and checked it out! I'll say no more, other than suggesting you use different accounts for game developing than you do for that.

everyone's free to like me or hate me for what I post elsewhere.
I don't mean you as a person. You do you, but you covered a pitfall trap with leaves and advised me to go Google it. It's like inviting your friends over and greeting them with your pants down. Of course they're going to say something. They're not going to start making generalisations about you, but they're going to have to ask why you would answer the door with your pants down, no matter how strongly you insist it's not representative of you as a whole.

if you're not monitoring inbound and outbound communications, how do you know if you're a target or not?... eh?
(i.e. are a popular internet figure, are storing personal records, don't live in Dark Ages England)
☐Popular internet figure
☐Business
☐Storing sensitive data
☑Home network
Biker's looking into enterprise solutions for (currently non-existent) household problems. It's a waste of money, depending on how highly you value peace of mind. I've been here before though. What-if mentalities are basically impossible to compete with. It's totally feasible that a dude in a balaclava and baseball cap will stand outside your house with a laptop and see the contents of your fap folder, and admitting that will prompt some people to shell out for a new router. Same goes for smart TVs collecting usage data. If you need to step up your game in order to relax on the sofa, go for it, totally fine.
-
If you do find and mention my accounts from some websites though, let me know so I can put my guard armor on and hide in an unlit spot
No kidding. use different usernames for that stuff. Now I have to go out and buy brain bleach.

As a network manager, you only need to step up your protection if you're a target (i.e. are a popular internet figure, are storing personal records, don't live in Dark Ages England) or are completely inept when it comes to using the internet. If you are, no amount of protection will keep you safe. Otherwise, the bare minimum will see you just fine. Ironically I have no AV installed, have Windows' software firewall turned off and have an old Linksys WRT45G hunk of junk, and haven't had any issues in over a decade. Work, meanwhile, is a slow week if attempts are in single figures. Like I say, it's a matter of purpose. I'd say you're going above and beyond what's required of a mundane home network in a technologically backwards country.

And there's the aneurysm.

There should be more surrealism and otherworldly strangeness in TDM. Damn right.
Totally, but so long as it doesn't sacrifice stealth for spooks. Oh, and impossible space too. That's always great fun.
-
Also IMO the Burricks, Spiders, Ghosts, Apebeasts and Bugbeasts are the weakest part of TDP. I lose any and all interest in that game once every level becomes less about stealth and more about zany monstars. It was necessary to round off the story, but the last few levels are just not about stealth in the same way that the human ones are.

I want an option in the menu to be able to extinguish electric lights by smearing the glass with my own fecal matter
Think of all the additional gameplay options! Laxatives, softeners, hardeners, all used to give the player plus or minus points on the Bristol Stool Chart, which in turn affects smearability. You're onto something.

The light gem doesn't actually measure the visibility of the player in TDM. It measures prettiness.

Is there a pinchable candle wall holder version?
Yep!

Check the thread for La Banque for the answer to the former. As for the latter, there's a drop button in the key bindings somewhere. I forget what it defaults to, is it R? It works for the key anyway, whatever it is.
