Vice Admiral - Unlocked when 250 levels are earned playing as the Colonial Union faction. New Uniform (Human Male and Female): C.U. Some uniforms allow players to modify up to two of the uniform’s colors. ![]() Faction restrictions have been removed and several new options are available. New Cosmetic Item Type: Uniform - You can now switch which uniform you wear. New Item Pickup Type: Credstick Pile - This pile of credsticks will add several hundred credits to your ship account. New Item Pickup Type: Credstick - Picking this up will add a handful of credits to your ship account. New Item Pickup Type: Experience - Picking this up will add 1 point to your crew’s experience. New Item Pickup Type: Fuel - Picking up this fuel capsule will add 1 to your ship’s fuel supply. We believe this change allows for a bit more agency in the turret seat. The turrets will cool faster if the engineer is using coolant. This allows crewmembers manning turrets to potentially fire their turrets faster than before, but with the added risk that if they fire too much too fast the turrets could overheat and be unusable for a short time. They now use a heat-based system similar to how the hand-held weapons work. Many of the uniforms allow color tweaks to further player customization!Īdditionally, this update contains some changes to how starship turrets operate. This update also contains unlockable uniforms! These new looks work the same way as the other cosmetic features but can help add a bit more character. The complexity of the puzzle increases based on the number of human players in the session.The Sylvassi Cypher Lab on your starmap is a great place to head to get started! We don’t want to give too many details away, but we tried to design a puzzle that could benefit from teamwork and communication while also being possible if you’re playing solo. Each of these ancient ruins contains a cryptic puzzle that the crew can work together to solve. The new method involves exploring planets and discovering ancient Sylvassi structures known as “Cyphers”. This update also adds an additional method for acquiring a Lost Colony Data Fragment (reminder: the Lost Colony hasn’t been added yet). We have Credsticks, which of course add credits to the ship account, we also have Experience pickups, which may be a little harder to find, these add 1 additional XP point to your crew experience! We have Fuel - which adds 1 additional fuel capsule to your ship supply. Part of the planet pass was adding additional rewards for exploring them, to do this we’ve added a few new pickup types that you can find planetside. Around 45 planets have been worked on for this update. Some planets and stations related to missions haven’t been changed yet, but we’ll be making a pass on them soon. Some planets only needed a few touch ups while others have been heavily overhauled. We did this by adding additional details, more enemy variety, and more rewards for exploring. t=0s" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen> Preston, who normally accompanies me when we make devlogs was still pretty busy when it was.īeta 25 is out now! This update focuses primarily on improving the planets currently in the game. ![]() ![]() ![]() They don't spoiler anything about the books and more or less they serve as a tie between the books and the television series (the characters are drawn based on the actors that depicts them on-screen), but they are more enjoyable IMHO if one has already some basic knowledge of the characters whose past history is here narrated. They details the past and provide additional background of the four main characters that compose the Rocinante crew, plus the detective Josephus Miller. There is also a series of "four plus one" comic books named The Expanse: Origins, published in digital edition in 2017, also written by the books' author James S.A. If not present, the short story is set between the previous and the next novel. The notes inside the square brackets, if present, tells when, from an in-universe point of view, do the short stories events happen. The number between parentheses is the year of publication The Last Flight of the Cassandra (2019).The Butcher of Anderson Station (2011).Also check this question.Īs an example, The Butcher of Anderson Station provides background for one of the most important characters of the series, but there is little point in reading about his past until you have met him during the main novels. Reading them while already having knowledge and familiarity of the characters, the setting and the story makes them more enjoyable and understandable in-context. Short stories and novellas are published between main novels, but they do not necessarily follow the main story chronologically, they often narrate past events and explore some characters background.Īnyway, like the publisher suggests, as reported in Valorum's answer, it is better to read them following the publishing order: these characters are first introduced in the main novels, and the short stories provide in-depth information, background characterization and world building. In celebration of how much I love this series, I’ve compiled a list of eight books like The Expanse for my fellow fans.The main novels are already in chronological order from an in-universe point of view, so if you start from Book 1 and continue trough the series, you will naturally follow the progression of the story.Įach novel don't necessarily starts immediately after the previous has ended, usually each of them is set one of two year after the previous, but this is not the strict norm. ![]() ![]() These characters find a way of sticking in your heart, and you can’t help but root for them no matter how many odds get stacked against them. Earther captain Jim Holden, Belter engineer Naomi Nagata, Belter detective Joe Miller, Earther mechanic Amos Burton, Martian pilot Alex Kamal, UN diplomat Chrisjen Avasarala, Martian marine Bobbie Draper - I love each and every one of these characters, and I could go on with more. The political intrigue between Earth, Mars, and the Belt paired with the underlying mystery keeps the suspense thick, but it’s the characters that elevate the series from great to exceptional. I love everything about this series, which is why I’ve been craving more books like The Expanse. Amidst all this, Jim Holden and his crew make a dangerous discovery near Saturn, while detective Joe Miller attempts to track down a missing girl in the Belt. The premise involves a future where humans have expanded beyond the Earth to the Moon, Mars, and the asteroid belt beyond, and these settlements have become locked in a perpetual power struggle for dwindling resources and control of the solar system. Corey’s The Expanse series includes nine books, a number of spin-off stories, and six seasons of the show adaptation on Amazon. It’s led to me looking for even more books like The Expanse. I’m forever thankful for that friend’s recommendation and for not losing that sticky note. ![]() When I finally sat down to watch the show, I was completely drawn in, lost in space in the most perfect way. I remember writing the show’s name on a little sticky note at work and tucking it away to look into later. When I replied I hadn’t, he told me to check it out. One of my co-workers at the time asked me if I’d ever heard of the TV series The Expanse, based off the books by James S. A hint of spring hung in the air, yet I still hadn’t shaken off the last dregs of the retreating cold and dark season. It had been a few years ago, and we were just getting to the end of a long and dreary winter. I’ll never forget the first time I heard about The Expanse. ![]() ![]() ![]() But I was much more interested in joining a "road trip". Action mostly seems the busiest at the airports, and you can do structured races too which were okay. Same with vehicles, you'll be driving along an suddenly someone is on your bonnet giving you two options - bail and fight, or panic and hopefully take them down too. One moment you're shooting someone carefully in the distance, the next they're flying over you like a super hero. It's interesting how a grapple can mix up combat in a 3rd person game like this. Although it does look a little weird when they're just hovering by your vehicle. Happily, most of the combat is synced now, including vehicles, but you can't see others grapple hook yet (not a big deal - it's just a rope). ![]() It seems the team's biggest challenge was getting everything 'synced', which means what you do can be seen by other players and vice versa. It's very easy and quick to join a game and just start playing with the updated user interface. It's just incredible how smooth it runs too, so you can see why the JC2-MP Team has wanted to get this MP mod off the ground.Īnd it's impressive how much effort they've put into it, with lots of tests on a regular basis over the last year and with lots of community interaction all around. The original game itself was quite fun in singleplayer, but the world was the real hero. The dense forest, the high-rise buildings. I still think there isn't a better looking open world game out there (GTAV doesn't count until I can play it on my PC). Most of the servers I joined let you buy and spawn any vehicle or weapon you like for free - and you can teleport to anyone with a simple console command.Īnd what a world the islands of Panau are! It's worth playing this mod just to remind you how good this 2010 game looks. ![]() The goal is simple - jump into a match with possibly thousands of people online in the same world at once, and start chaos in a sandbox of full of land sea and air vehicles. The mod is free, but you do need Just Cause 2 to play it. It's reached a very playable stage now and popped up on steam. But the JC2-MP team has been hard at work for a very long time on a multiplayer mod to rectify this.

![]() Chemistry ĭiethyl ether is a hard Lewis base that reacts with a variety of Lewis acids such as iodine, phenol, and trimethylaluminium, and its base parameters in the ECW model are E B = 1.80 and C B = 1.63. In this way diethyl ether is very similar to one of its precursors, ethanol. For the same reason it is also used as a component of the fuel mixture for carbureted compression ignition model engines. Ether starting fluid is sold and used in countries with cold climates, as it can help with cold starting an engine at sub-zero temperatures. Fuel ĭiethyl ether has a high cetane number of 85–96 and is used as a starting fluid, in combination with petroleum distillates for gasoline and diesel engines because of its high volatility and low flash point. ![]() It is particularly important as a solvent in the production of cellulose plastics such as cellulose acetate. Īnother reaction that can be used for the preparation of ethers is the Williamson ether synthesis, in which an alkoxide (produced by dissolving an alkali metal in the alcohol to be used) performs a nucleophilic substitution upon an alkyl halide. ![]() Getting a good yield of ether requires that ether be distilled out of the reaction mixture before it reverts to ethanol, taking advantage of Le Chatelier's principle. The reaction to make diethyl ether is reversible, so eventually an equilibrium between reactants and products is achieved. At higher temperatures, ethanol will dehydrate to form ethylene. This reaction must be carried out at temperatures lower than 150 ☌ in order to ensure that an elimination product ( ethylene) is not a product of the reaction. A hydrogen ion protonates the electronegative oxygen atom of the ethanol, giving the ethanol molecule a positive charge:ĬH 3CH 2OH + H 3O + → CH 3CH 2OH + 2 + H 2OĪ nucleophilic oxygen atom of unprotonated ethanol displaces a water molecule from the protonated ( electrophilic) ethanol molecule, reforming the hydronium ion and yielding diethyl ether.ĬH 3CH 2OH + 2 + CH 3CH 2OH → H 3O + + CH 3CH 2OCH 2CH 3 The acid dissociates in the aqueous environment producing hydronium ions, H 3O +. ![]() Ethanol is mixed with a strong acid, typically sulfuric acid, H 2SO 4. ĭiethyl ether can be prepared both in laboratories and on an industrial scale by the acid ether synthesis. Vapor-phase dehydration of ethanol over some alumina catalysts can give diethyl ether yields of up to 95%. This process uses solid-supported phosphoric acid catalysts and can be adjusted to make more ether if the need arises. Most diethyl ether is produced as a byproduct of the vapor-phase hydration of ethylene to make ethanol. It has been used as a recreational drug to cause intoxication. It was formerly used as a general anesthetic, until non-flammable drugs were developed, such as halothane. It is commonly used as a solvent in laboratories and as a starting fluid for some engines. It is a colourless, highly volatile, sweet-smelling ("ethereal odour"), extremely flammable liquid. Diethyl ether, or simply ether, is an organic compound in the ether class with the formula (CH 3CH 2) 2O or (C 2H 5) 2O, sometimes abbreviated as Et 2O, where Et stands for monovalent ethyl group CH 3CH 2 which is often written as C 2H 5 (see pseudoelement symbol). ![]() ![]() You need to sign up using your Google Account to proceed.
