Yeah, I'd like to know where it's scraping its data from, 'cause unless it has a good dataset, then whatever it says is crap. That's my general analysis of ChatGPT and the other AIs as a whole.

Under The Waves (multi-platform) If' you're into stories in your games, then Quantic Dream studio is always a good place to look. I periodically add stuff to my wish lists (mostly PS), but often ignore who makes the games. I gradually finished this one over the past couple weeks and while I did have some annoyances (controls are always an area of issue in some games), overall, it was a good story. Rather simple of a game, but sometimes that's what you need. Ideally, you'll play this in a dark environment with headphones for immersion. It'll definitely pull at the heart strings for some, but there's none of the usual "good vs evil" in this story as you're fully blue in this one.

I recall there being an instance or two where the actual launcher didn't get digitally signed, triggering a similar issue.

Back in that same time frame, I had a chat with a Norton rep who recommended running it from the CD, not installed as the latter would eat up resources in the background. 😛 Now a days, I stick to Defender and Webroot, but with as modern as they've managed to get Defender, you Almost don't need a branded AV. Unless you do stupid things on the internet of course, but Defender has been rated pretty good for that now a days.

Whitelisting (as opposed to blacklisting) is where you tell the AV that you trust a specific file, folder, etc. There are non-tech examples of the term as well that are the origination of the term.

Smells like an AV getting in the way. I'd check that you've whitelisted that directory.

So just the handful of slots then, k, that makes more sense.

Those that do that caution that things may disappear if you use it like that and someone accidentally bids that high.

Perhaps do a repair before a full rebuild first?

Not for bases, they tested higher back on live and due to database issues (IIRC), it would crash with more than what we have now. Everything in a base adds to this (invisible?) limit, so the more complex the base, the more 'fun' it'll be when you're inside it and trying to do things like move or interact with stuff. This is likely one of the many things that would require a complete rebuild of the games core coding. Not something anyone has (openly?) attempted or committed the resources to as it wouldn't be a small task.

Don't forget the dolphins...or was that someone else?

If you didn't already, make sure to submit a ticket at the time of issue so they can pull the data as it happens.

Didn't realize this was a cause, but yeah, this is an OLD bug from the original codebase.

The only reason that conceivably wouldn't work is if there was a Mod involved. But yeah, "Nuke it from orbit" tends to be just as efficient for those without a monthly bandwidth restriction. 😛
