I play games, simulator (not The sims) and retro stuff. I’m kinda original gamer. Also, I make the odd Tweet/retweet, or whatever they are called here.

With the AI starting to fire radar guided missiles, I'm learning a lot about how bad the R-3Rs are. I never really put any thought into its stats since the AI couldn't fire it anyway. Apparently the missile was slow enough that the proximity fuze would blow up the launching jet half the time.

Two very different Aliens: The Computer Games were released after the 1986 movie. The UK one was a first-person horror set in a maze-like facility. The US Version turned film scenes into minigames. Both are featured, in depth, in Aliens: The Video Games. Out now via @penandswordbooks.bsky.social.

Simple, but obvious in hindsight solution to just showing both. Just use a subtitle for when you want to add an alternate name to something. For modders, there's a new property so they can add subtitles to their objects too.
Screenshot from Tiny Combat Arena's database showing the new subtitle text on database object names.
