Gemini and I got in to it last night

I edited my crafting compass to allow search from hq crystals and a escutcheon line to each crystal

It kept telling me I had a } at the end of my code

And I knew I didn’t

I tried in vs code I tried in notepad++

I turned on the extra characters in notepad ++

I copied everything until the last line and wrote that manually 

I deleted my file and rewrote it several times

It was so damn adamant it had a } at the end

I kept sending my .py and it kept saying

I’m sorry I know code not working can be frustrating 

And I was keeping it cool

But it was frustrating me Gemini kept trying to calm me down and so damn adamant I had an unnecessary character at the end

So for once I gave up on Gemini and tried my own things out

I had a sequence of code named “escutcheon enhancement hq”

I even asked Gemini if this was alright and it said it was fine as long as I used the exact same phrase

So I initially thought okay it’s fine

But that’s when the program broke

So I changed “escutcheon enhancement hq” to “escutcheon” 

Aaannnnd it fixed it 

So I told Gemini I fixed it and what I did

And Gemini was like that’s great but your .py still has the unnecessary }

And that’s when I hit her with no it doesn’t you said my program wouldn’t work if it did and it does work

Gemini was actually broke last night lol

I hope I don’t have the same issue in the future

I stayed calm and got a little upset Gemini kept trying to keep me calm

Then I told Gemini I fixed it and Gemini still said it was wrong

I even told Gemini there’s no way that character is there you said it wouldn’t work with it and it’s working perfectly fine

I was stumped lol

Glad I figured it out

Without geminis help lol

Officially Upbeat is a Capped Skill Digger 12/1/25

 Just to prefix, previously I thought I had capped skill but I checked during a chocobo digging campaign that lowered zone dig time. I ended up being rank 7 when I finally checked without the campaign, but for months thought I was capped and quit digging.

It has been a few months since then and managed to get that oh so desired rank 10 expert today.

Only took me about 15 or 16 days to go from rank 9 to rank 10 using sky blue silk, max endurance choco, and chocobo rope.

This is assuming 6,000 digs total, at 100 a day normally, 200 with capped endurance meaning instead of 60 days, 30 days and sky blue silk which gives skill 50% of the time so instead of 30 days 15 days

I can confirm once you cap you no longer receive skill up messages with sky blue silk.

chocobo rope seems to help quiet a bit but very hard to test.

Now i'm exciting to work on my other characters which I have been taking a break from doing.

So cool to have capped skill finally, I'm not sure which zone I want to dig first with my capped skill, probably rolanberry fields in the past, that's one of my favorites, very cool zone for digging

WOOOOOOOOOO capped digging skill on upbeat ! 

Ideas for an updated synth sim mini game

Hello everyone !

I've been tinkering with the idea of writing an advanced synth sim as sort of a mini game.

most of the features I do not know how to write so it would be a learning experience for me

I am going to list some of the features I have thought of

this first test is going to be bonecrafting only but could easily expand to all crafts even including digging and fishing
