Hidden Talents of Shroomerites!
    #15936701 -

Shroomery, tell us something you're good at that we don't already know or perhaps would never expect.

This thread is inspired by Patlal who when looking at a youtube vid of footage of many wars identified all battle vehicles and planes used with a background on which war it probably was.




I'll start.

On the OpenSimulator / Second Life virtual reality platform I can build three dimensional virtual objects starting with basic geometric shapes such as boxes, spheres and cylinders.
Here is an example of some rifles I built. The top one I deliberately colored in contrasting colors so you can see how it was put together:



llSay(0, "I also have the skill to write code in the LSL2 scripting language to make these objects do all sorts of stuff.");

Whats your hidden talent, something you are good at that we wouldnt immediately guess?

In the Second Life VR platform theres a zombie shooting game. Because of software constraints its a bit lame with too powerful weapons so to give the zombies a chance I made the bottom rifle, loosely based on the Lee Enfield and similar rifles. Its a bolt action rifle which you have to cycle after every shot, thereby drastically reducing your firing speed, giving the zombies at least SOME chance to come at you.

Mead? yumm! They dont call that "liquid gold" for nothing. I love a good mead!

in the book World War Z, bolt action rifles are used to force fire control, preventing soldiers from firing all crazy like, missing head shots and wasting rounds.
