It's externally powered, so hopefully that's not the problem. Am now getting an I/O error for the docking port itself but have no clue what's causing that.

Got a Sabrent external harddrive. Plugged into my USB 3.0 port, shows up in device manager and the blue light stays on. Inserting a drive immediately makes it disconnect and the light starts to flash. Running Windows 7. Tried moving it between the USB 2.0 and 3.0 with no difference.
Edit: Trying with 3 different HDDs, two of which I know aren't broke.

Pretty much every thing you do in skylines will have both people complaining about it and thanking you for it.
Just like real life!
But really, I bought the game at launch, is it better now?

The only thing I've seen to prevent that with us lot is Forsaken's old progression server, and that was because building away from the city was strictly forbidden, and mods were "unlocked" by communal projects such as building a town hall, or a library.
Even then people lost interest, drifted away, etc within a week or so. We're a fickle lot and getting people to focus on anything seems challenging. Almost every time I've hosted up a server it's lost interest within a week or two. Actually the longest lived was the Eco server, some people played for almost the full month.
Now that I don't have a job, me and my brother can be on a lot of the time. That's two people.

If someone started a server with Direwolf20 or something, I'd join. Not quite willing to build anything underwater because it's a pain, but supplying the stuff for it would be fun.

Rather than making an entire thread for one silly question, what kind of wood finish do any of you find to be good? I'm buying a rather large tub for my knife handles and I trust your opinions more than some randoms on the internet who may or may not be paid to say good things.

Can't wait for it to be released, ready to back into bug testing it.

Managed to get 24 people into full masterwork armor, with MK III weapons. All with 30~ fight skill each. 5 Holy Nation paladins just wiped every single one of them while taking only minor injuries. Even with a mod that allows up to 5 people to fight a single target.

Currently a bug where cargopants with sneaky chainmail can be made at a tailor's bench with only fabric. With a decent hemp farm and the item smelter, it gives infinite iron for crafting purposes.
If you're looking to make large profits to buy... let's say ancient research books from World's End, mass produce bread. Weighs .5kg each, sells for atleast ~1000 and is completely renewable.

Base game I think I got outpost costs down to like ~20. Only really became a problem when I went to war and had to make claims, since I had to stop making outposts during that time.

That's odd. I believe 7 ultimate has a ridiculous upper limit on RAM, like around 200Gb or some such.

Perhaps a conflict with the existing RAM?
Windows and CPU-Z both register it as being there, just Windows not wanting to use it. I'll attempt to reinstall it just in case I am dumb.

Edit: Was very slightly off. Working like a charm now.

Bought a shiny new stick of RAM so I could play on my server while hosting it. Doesn't seem like my computer wants to use the new stick and has binned the extra capacity. :(

I've been unable to play Karthus viably except jungle for a long time. The new runes have buffed the other junglers so much it's become impossible. Anytime I pick him, I just resign myself to stealing kills and being burst beneath my turret.

I bet either or both of those things could be the problem...

I also found this: Bug:MC-51953
"Thirdly, be aware that it's likely the report will be closed as either invalid or won't fix, as this is on the border between bug report and feature request, seeing as new functionality would need to be implemented to combat the issue you describe."
Not the most hopeful answer, but an answer it is.

Not sure how the whole mining industry will work without Z-levels.
