Keyboard is centred under the monitor. Mouse is about 20cm to 30cm off to the right of the keyboard.

You can turn on Cooldown Timers for Powers, and then activate the Power and see if the Cooldown listed in the Info matches the Cooldown on the Power Icon in-game. I noticed in my own case that one of my powers was reading as 2.08 second cooldown in Info, but in-game it was 1.8ish thanks to the Power Recharge Timer.

Do we have any modellers, riggers, or other artistic talents officially joined to the Dev Team yet?

So, I took Victory Rush on a Mastermind, and it appears that it does not work on Henchpets. This seems like an oversight to me, but I wasn't around when it was added to the game, so I don't know what the specific design intention was for it. In any event, even if we can't have Recharge become Enhanceable on Victory Rush, could we please at least have it affect all Pets?

Actually, that last one . . . anyone with technical knowledge out there who might be able to point the community where to look in the PIGGs for the texture assets for the various Prestige Sprints and Slide, so that the community can get to work on making them tintable? And, well, what does it take to make the assets tintable from a non-codebase side? I suspect people would be tripping over themselves to help with small things like this if we knew where to begin.

Very sneaky, Cipher . . . I see you want to earn the Gold Medal for Reputation today.

I apologize if someone brought this up already, but didn't Codewalker address this in Paragon Chat by making the Teleport there hover indefinitely unless you try to move? I mean, I don't even know if Paragon Chat uses any of the same coding language or whathaveyou, but if it's technically feasible here as well, would there be any complaints with that?

Usually I just have to push on teammates' Henchmen for a few seconds, and they'll rubberband out of my way, unless there's a LOT of them in one spot and they'll just billiard-bounce in to one another and prevent me from moving. Is that not how it works for anyone else? But anyway . . . why not replace Brawl with Single Shot on Mercs? Not the Death Ray Single Shot, silly. The Soldier of Arachnos Single Shot! I mean, other than there being /how/ many Mercs you would need to go in and change that on, since apparently each model for the Merc is a unique creature. Still . . . how many hours of work would that be, realistically?

Except LFG-travel doesn't work if you want to stay in your current team.

New proposal! Add "free" Slots to Travel Powers. I have /no/ idea what would be involved in that, but a little part of me thinks that it's not quite that simple. On the one hand, we have a mechanic which can give new Powers automatically upon level up, or when you get one Power it grants another Power . . . so what if Travel Powers came Pre-Slot'd? Would that resolve some of the concerns some of you have? Are the Travel IO Sets really /that/ powerful that just giving the Slots for free would be detrimental to what little semblance of "balance" exists?

Whatever the mechanic is for Ajax in the Level 20 Red-Side mission from Dean McArthur, perhaps? I don't know what it is, but he will take the damage you deal, but his health bar never budges.

Fire Hazards will also cause the Death Ray to play an attack animation under some circumstances, I've noticed.

My hand positioning depends on if I'm in casual/roleplay mode, or down-to-brass-tacks-gaming mode. If casual, and ergo probably typing quite a bit, I'll use just the mouse for movement with my right hand. No need to strafe, generally, when things are relaxing. If I'm going all-in, then my left hand usually rests over the arrow keys, positioned in such a way that the numpad is easily accessible, with the fatty part of my palm below the pinky resting on the outcropping below the space bar and/or Windows key on my keyboard. Right hand on the mouse, unless I've got to swap for something a little more complex or type a message to the team in a hurry.

I was raised on Doom and earlier "3D" first-person gaming experiences. "WASD" always felt inherently and terribly wrong to me. Arrow Keys FOREVER!

wait . . . is there seriously a skull-bra in the game already?! What? WHERE!?

What about average Reputation per Post? Captain Powerhouse looks to have a solid ratio there.

I mean, there's already Victory out there, right? They're still going? The private server named Victory whose express purpose was to be /the/ Live-Victory gathering point? Expect most of the members of the Pride channel that I remember from Live are already on Homecoming, and play mostly on Torchbearer and Everlasting. I like the new names, and feel we have the correct number of shards on the Homecoming servers, for now. Although the Test server names are still kind of ". . . wut?"

Thanks for the update on that, Abraxus. I have to admit, I've seriously shirked my responsibility to myself on keeping abreast of Titan Network ever since Homecoming came out. I think I visited it twice between when I started my first account here, and just now. Tony has some very inspirational words in that post. I hope they take root in the right places!

You can activate stancevillain2, which unlocks all* emotes again while your shield is out, until you move again. *at least all of the emotes I've tried to test it with. I may be wrong.

So, I see this is still an issue like it was way back when the game first started. I accidentally hit the little up arrow on my Inspiration tray, and now it's defaulting to Open any time I zone. Does anyone know how to reset it to default as Closed, please?

To answer the question posed by your thread title: Because we're all so busy playing, that we keep forgetting to lift our heads up and shout "CITY'S BACK!"

Except animators usually aren't anywhere near programmers. We can have animators animating without it impacting coders in a terribly significant way. At least in most productions. Maybe City's spaghetti changes that.

Or the Circle of Thorns Succubi who pre-date the Hellion's "girlfriends:" https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Circle_of_Thorns#Succubus

I don't like to play the toxic advocate, but I do just want to say that without a better GUI for the costume creator, the influx of additional pieces may be more than some players could reasonably handle." In reality, I don't think the number of players negatively impacted, nor the severity of that negativity, would be enough to reasonably decide unlocking the additional pieces isn't in the best interest of the game. It would just be advisable to (if feasible) have a new costume creator UI/UX in place first. . . . goodness, that was tough to type. Mainly because I don't actually, truly want to wait for a new costume creator just to gain access to all those lovely bits and bobs!
