![]() ![]() ![]() I agree with you, things like this lowered the overall standard of the game a tad. I mean nobody forced them to include undead in this game and nobody forced them to keep the choice to player if that undead whats to stay natural in the shape or cover behind different shape.Īt those cases i miss games at wich chars with a to low intelligence score had problems to contruct complete sentences. Give me 2 examples of well received games (well received romance plots to be exact) in which ALL romance interests are bisexual. Total equality in games is bloody boring. *shrugs* I guess you have to disable common sense at some point even though in my opinion is the level a bit low in this game. No, that's saying they love your character regardless their gender, and don't treat them any different either way. somehow Sebille caused goosebumbs on his skin with her kisses even though he wasnt shapeshifted at all so the game literally ignores racial "obstacles" So i bet even a dwarf love a human both standing upright without using a ladder any of both.

The exit to the maze is always the highest number on the dice and here is the fun part for the players. The player characters who fail saving throws get teleported into the starting area (area 1) of a multi-area teleportation maze trap, the various areas of the trap are each stocked with traps, challenging terrain (chasm, flame pit, rising water level, sliding spike walls, etc) and/or monsters (particularly constructs or magically animated critters, and undead), each area may see the players return to it multiple times, so they reset and restock after each use, also, Dungeon master might like to add extra dramatic tension by having the threat level of each area get higher with each return visit.Įach room has a teleportation zone that activates when players reach and trigger it, when this happens, the player who activates it gets to roll a dice to determine which area they teleport to next.Įach area has an assigned number, and there are as many areas as the dice you choose to use, the simple trap uses a d4, an insanity level trap uses d100 (please don't ever do this to your players, they would be justified in lynching you). The DM has a lot of flexibility on how the trap triggers initially, but here are a few examples.Ī) The trigger is a person of the wrong alignment who attempts to activate an enchanted object.ī) The trigger is an arcane glyph which activates in the presence of the wrong type of creature getting close to it.Ĭ) The trigger is a magical area attack that an opponent unleashes on the players.ĭ) The trigger is stepping through a trapped magical portal.Į) The trigger is standing and looking into an enchanted mirror. You need not use the circle to teleport when you cast the spell in this way.Now first, I can't take total credit for this concept, but I tweaked the idea a bit to add more interaction for the players. You can create a permanent teleportation circle by casting this spell in the same location every day for one year. You can commit a new sigil sequence to memory after studying it for 1 minute. You can learn additional sigil sequences during your adventures. When you first gain the ability to cast this spell, you learn the sigil sequences for two destinations on the Material Plane, determined by the DM. Each such circle includes a unique sigil sequence - a string of magical runes arranged in a particular pattern. Many major temples, guilds, and other important places have permanent teleportation circles inscribed somewhere within their confines. Any creature that enters the portal instantly appears within 5 feet of the destination circle or in the nearest unoccupied space if that space is occupied. A shimmering portal opens within the circle you drew and remains open until the end of your next turn. As you cast the spell, you draw a 10-foot-diameter circle on the ground inscribed with sigils that link your location to a permanent teleportation circle of your choice whose sigil sequence you know and that is on the same plane of existence as you. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Keep one at home, one at work and one on your keyring Multiple keys: Multiple keys are essential, with manufacturers such as OnGuard offering up to five with a lock.Check the weight of the barrel because if it’s heavy that’s a sure sign it’s armoured Lock barrel: Manufacturers will centre the lock mechanism in the barrel.A cloth or sponge cover is handy to keep your pride and joy looking nice and to prevent the lock from corroding Protection: Nobody wants a bare metal lock clattering against their frame.The smaller the internal diameter of the links the better, as this gives less space for a lever that can be used to break the link to be inserted Links: Chains are made up of links hoops joined together.In our case, it’s our bikes to something sturdy Shackle: We know the shackle as the D-shaped part of a D-lock/U-lock or padlock.Key: There are various types of keys, but all work a lock mechanism by moving pins or discs into alignment to allow the lock plug to be turned and open the lock.Here’s a breakdown of all the key lock lingo that you need to know: Two budget locks that are wildly different in style and key/lock-cylinder types are sometimes better than just one expensive lock. If a thief is adept at picking a certain type of lock and has the tools to do so, it’s less likely they will also have the tools or the knowledge to pick a completely different type. Stability when carried on the bike is essential. However, be careful how you handle it and don’t drop it on your favourite lightweight carbon frame. It’s a strong solution and one we’d recommend for home use only.įor the money, you are getting a lot of lock and one that’ll work on multiple bikes at the same time – thread it through a floor or wall anchor and you can secure two or three bikes. The lock cylinder is good against pick attacks and the links are some of the toughest on test. Bolt-cropping on the links was middling, but on the lock shackle much more impressive. ![]() The Homie is well protected against corrosion and hammer tests didn’t affect it either. When using the Homie, be careful not to drop it onto a frame tube because that 4.2kg of weight will cause some damage. The individual links are made from hardened steel, as is the shackle to protect the cylinder lock. The Homie, at 1.5m long, is designed to thread through multiple bikes, and as the name suggests, is for home use. The Hiplok Homie Chain Lock is ideal for home use. It didn’t last long against the angle grinder though. Torsion tests had little effect, and it proved itself in the tensile test too. The Litelok took a massive amount of abuse (222.5kN) from the bolt cropper. A standard blade sawed through the cables in 52 seconds and just 15 with a tungsten blade. It performed perfectly after weather testing, and chilling and hammering only left a dent in the lock case. The flexible nature makes it adaptable to what you lock it to, though it can be a little stiff, so hold the pressure while pushing the two locking ends together. The design keeps weight down and provides plenty of flexibility.Ĭarrying the lock is easy, either leave it straight and strap to your top tube or lock it into its circular shape and strap it between the seat and top tube. The Litelok Gold’s design combines a heavyweight disc lock mechanism with a mushroom stud and socket connection set within a sturdy steel casing joined by a nylon mesh-clad series of steel cables. Shackle size: 265mm (circular diameter).The Litelok Gold proved surprisingly effective in testing. You will definitely need a second lock or some accessory cables to properly secure all the extremities of your ride though. The relatively shallow shackle is bolstered by a big 85mm width, so even with its compact size our tester was still able to safely get it through the frame and back wheel of their bike. Only a lowly performance on the tensile (pull) test gave any cause for concern, but being able to withstand 28kN is more than enough to see off most compact, portable bottle jacks easily. It’s built to last with excellent weather protection, and it’s a tough cookie when it comes to sawing, twisting and grinding. These ergonomic touches add a little extra to what is a solid-performing little lock. It makes carrying easy thanks to the two built-in prongs that are designed to slip into your jeans pocket, or behind a belt. Hiplok’s DX combines a compact D-lock with a casing that protects your bike with soft-touch materials. The Hiplok DX is a good shout if you’re looking for a lock to take with you on the go. ![]() ![]() The article features scenery for the USA, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and more.Īlso included for some of the scenery add-ons are videos demonstrating the scenery package once installed in XP11. ![]() We have a whole article dedicated to covering orthophoto/photoreal scenery for X-Plane 11.

These threat actors seek to exacerbate societal friction to sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence. The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors. ![]() ![]()

Renters would be expected to put each utility bill in their own name and then will pay those bills accordingly. Doing so will allow the owner to shift the cost of utilities onto renters. If an owner has not done so already, they should consider individually metering each unit. Utility income can be a tremendous source of income for multifamily apartment owners. Landlords who do not currently accept pets today should consider whether allowing pets, for an additional fee, would make sense given their property type, layout, demographics and insurance policies. Fees can be pocketed by the owner whereas security deposits must be held in escrow and need to be returned to the renter if there is no obvious damage caused by said pet(s) at the end of the lease term. For example application fees, credit reporting fees, and late fees.Ī growing number of tenants also have pets these days, so landlords should consider charging pet fees on a monthly basis-a strategy that is decidedly different than simply charging an additional security deposit for pet owners. Evaluate FeesĪnother way to improve and boost NOI at multifamily properties is by increasing revenue associated with fees charged back to the tenants. Longtime owners may not feel pressure to increase rents, but a prospective investor should assess if current rents are on par with market rates and consider raising them to improve the net operating income (NOI). This is also why it is so important for prospective buyers and existing owners to have a strong understanding of the local market. In an inflationary environment, the costs associated with owning and operating a multifamily property will increase (think utilities, property maintenance/management, etc.) which is why rent increases are important to not only cover these costs but also to increase NOI. As well as if those costs are justified based on the resulting cap rate (i.e., property value). However, investors will want to determine how much those improvements will cost. This creates a delta between a going-in cap rate and exit cap rate. For example, an investor evaluating a property with a low cap rate should consider if making certain improvements could increase the property’s NOI, either in the short term or long term. ![]() Typically, the higher the NOI, the higher the value of the property on a cap rate basis. One of the key inputs to the cap rate calculation is NOI. The more profitable a property is, the higher cap rate the property will have. This is because one of the primary ways investors evaluate properties is by looking at their going-in cap rates. NOI is especially important to multifamily investors as they compare potential investment opportunities. Why NOI is Important for Multifamily Investors ![]() Gross operating income minus operating expenses is what NOI concentrates exclusively on. Neither are capital expenditures, depreciation, and amortization. However, that debt service is not included as part of the NOI calculation.
