Title: [help] some questions about original English text
Post by: k2ymg on October 09, 2018, 04:30:15 AM
Hello.

I'm not good on English, and I have some questions about vanila's English text. I can't understand them with my knowledge.

Could someone explain them with simpler or other words?

Thank you.


"A friendly AI from your past named Charlon Whitestone ...":

What mean "from your past"?


"InRestraints:In restraints (slowed)":

What will be 'slowed'? Is this about moving speed?


Plant_Bush, "Does not typically talk.":

Yes... plant is not talk. Is this a joke?


CargoPilot58, "... running weapons between ..."

Is this mean "sell or transport or use weapons"? But, he/she is a pilot of the ore cargo ship. I cannot imagine the situation of this.


OverwatchSniper1, "... broke him down and built him back up":

Is this mean like "he reborn as a soldier by hard training"?


TechHead7, "... love of circles.":

What is "love of circles"?

Quote"A friendly AI from your past named Charlon Whitestone ...":

the opposite from "in your future", in Rimworld term, anything before your Cyrosleep.

QuoteCargoPilot58, "... running weapons between ..."

He is just a cargopilot who work's for a weapon dealer.
Otherwhile he would be a smuggler.

QuoteOverwatchSniper1, "... broke him down and built him back up":

Maybe, but i think it is more psychagogic.
His mind broke down and then it got build up to work at the society again.
You know many soldier got this problem.

QuoteTechHead7, "... love of circles.":

What is "love of circles"?
Just a geometrical figure.
He like them soo much that he love them to draw and watch these.
Other like to watch girls, he is a techhead, he like circles.

Thank you!

I googled "love of circles" but I got only fancy arts, a movie named "love circle" and slang point to gay. I'm confused but clear now :)

It is simply a joke.
Lots of them are hidden among the Backstories and somes in 'Things Defs'.
