Missile Command widget
While this new widget is fun, it eats up CPU capacity, even when not playing! My Mac Mini was running hot (fan going fast) and I didn't have that much open, so I opened Activity Monitor and found that the widget was using 30% of the CPU, and I wasn't even playing it.
I clicked to the developer's website, but it's In Japanese, which I don't speak, so couldn't leave a message for him.
Apple monitors- please have someone contact him/her about this and remove it from your widget list until he's fixed the problem.
I am sorry not to notice.
The problem of wasting CPU was fixed in the version 0.971.

I'm writing a missile command program for a class. I need help getting the enemy missiles(the ones that shoot down towards the city) to recognize the user's missiles and terminate. This seems especially hard since the users missiles are ellipses and not rectanges and the Ellipse2D.Double's I use use bounding boxes. Let me know if you have any ideas (I tried the contains method, didn't really know how it works)
Thanks!

Looking for old Missile Command-type game
I used to play this Missile Command clone around 10 years ago, I remember a black background and colorful bases and "missile lines". Can't remember what it was called though. If anyone knows that would be awesome.
d. t.
Are you looking for online play? I did a Google search for Missile Command and came up with a bunch of online Missile Command games. I was able to save a java based version as a web archive with Safari and play offline.
I have the old Missile Command in black and white, but I got it in the OS 7 days so I don't remember where I got it.

Speech Recognition stops working after a minute of nonuse
I'm a grad student trying to keep from exacerbating my carpal tunnel and just figured out how to use the voice commands on my macbook. So far, they work great, they hear my voice, it does what I tell it to do, and I'm not constantly hitting apple+tab and apple+c and apple+v and so on, which really helps my wrists!
BUT. If I go for more than a minute or two without using a voice command, it stops working. I can't pinpoint anything else that triggers it other than if I stop using it for a little bit while I'm reading a paper or something. The microphone is calibrated and working, the little black arrows and the blue and green bars flash on the widget like it hears me, but then it won't give me the sound that says the command was recognized and it doesn't perform the command any time I try to use it again after a few minutes of not being used. It's like the recognition part goes to sleep and won't wake up.
If I go to the system preferences and toggle Speakable Itemst off and then on again, it starts working again until another minute or two of non-use. If I use spoken commands constantly, it will stay on for a good long while, but I'm not using it constantly that's the end of speech recognition. I really can't stop to just tell it some unneeded command to keep it awake all the time! Eventually, the computer gets confused if I turn the "speakable items" on and off too many times from the System Preferences, and it gets confused about whether or not it's turned on or off, or the widget disappears but the System Preferences panel thinks the Speakable Items is on.
I read somewhere that other people with a newer OS have a similar problem if they don't use the default speaking voice, so I switched to Alex and restarted, and the same thing is still happening.
I'm running 10.5.8, and using safari, word 2011, preview, nothing too crazy. My speech recognition is in "Listen only while key is pressed" mode, and like I said, works great until I stop using it for a minute or so. I'm using the internal microphone on my MacBook (dob circa 2008). Any tips on how I can actually keep my Speech Recognition useful? Thanks in advance!OK, I have one more question now, seems to be the same as this question which was never answered years ago:
Speakable Commands>Application Switching -- how to delete items?
When I click on the triangle from the speech command widget and open speech commands, there is a TON of stuff there that I'll never ever use, but these things do not appear in the Library/Speech/Speakable Items folder so that I might be able to delete them. For example, one item I'd like to turn off is just the word "Home" and the computer keeps thinking that I said "Home" instead of whatever else I meant to say. Another keeps opening iChat or Mail, when I say "open new window" or something like that. I tried clicking, control clicking, option clicking, nothing will highlight a command in the Speech Commands window so that I might delete it.
The "Home" command only shows up when I'm using Word, in the "front window" list. However, the Application Speakable Items/Microsoft Word folder is empty. Is there some other way to get into the speakable commands list and weed out unwanted stuff? -

Speech Recognition stops paying attention.
hey all--
I was having trouble with my speech recognition (as well as a few other things) and so I finally deleted and reinstalled my system out of frustration. There are a lot of commands in the voice commands I don't want/use so I took some of them out or changed their wordings. I am also adding ones of my own.
My main trouble is that after a little bit, or 4-5 spoken commands, it stops listening to me. The green indicators indicate that it is hearing me just fine, but suddenly I can say "computer" all I want and it won't do a darn thing. If I open speech prefs, turn speakable off and back on, that'll fix it for another 4-5 commands. I am not in a noisy environment. It is very irksome!!
~GOK, I have one more question now, seems to be the same as this question which was never answered years ago:

Error running MATLAB function on LabVIEW (it works on MATLAB)
Hello,
I want to run a game (that I did not write) in LabVIEW which is all programmed using MATLAB. It runs on MATLAB but I have no clue why it does not run on LabVIEW. Please take a look at the attachments to see the error, VI and game.
Note: I tried running other simpler .m functions that also call outside functions in the same folder using the same VI and they work so it is not the MathScript Node. Also, I already changed the search paths for the MathScript Node therefore the root of the problem is not there either.
Thank you!!Hello,
When using the MathScript RT Node you should enter your m code into the Node itself. Have you tried taking your code from the Missile Commander file and putting it in the node? Are you using any funtions that are on the unsupported list?
Below are a few resources on getting started with the MathScript Node.

Give commands to MUSE widgets inside EDGE is possible?
Hi. I love designing with Muse and Edge. Wouldn'it be just great if I could controll Muse widgets inside my Edge elements? I tried tracking the Muse document and calling the functions inside Edge using jquery but it didn't work. Is there a way for this?
Any help would be appreciated.While multiadressing may get you "synchronous" enough it's by no means a guarantee that both instruments will really react equally fast when receiving the trigger command over the GPIB bus. For true hardware synchronized operation you will have to use the trigger bus on the back of the device to connect them together, select one of the 4 trigger lines to use and set them up correctly on both instruments, one as input and one as output and then send the trigger command to the device that drives the trigger line. That will give you synchronisation to microseconds accurate. GPIB multi addressing will be in the range of several milliseconds and sequential GPIB in the range of maybe 100 milliseconds.

The Command center widget disappeared from my home screen on my droid turbo. I found it in apps, disabled it then re-enabled it, and it still won't reappear. Any idea of how to get it back?
Long-press on an empty space on your home screen; you should then see options at the bottom of the screen, tap Widgets. Scroll until you see Command Center, then long-press it and drag it to where you want it on your home screen, then let go.

My droid command center widget has disappeared, how do I get it back?
corrie67,
Sorry to hear that the app vanished on you. On most devices you would touch the app launcher on the bottom center of your home screen, select widget in the upper left and the touch and drag the widget back to the screen you want it on. Or touch and hold the home screen until you get a pop-up and select add widget and select the command center widget. We can provide specific instructions for your phone. What model Droid do you have?

Command plus launches widget panel?!
There are a few things I love about Lion, but there are a few liberties the devs took that perplex and annoy me.
The biggest little issue I've run into is the fact that Apple has commandeered the "Command Plus" shortcut and tied it to the Dashboard Widget panel.
W T F Apple? Really?! EVERY application in the history of keyboard shortcuts has used that very command to zoom in.
As a designer (and the core userbase of your decreasingly professional operating system) I spend much of my day zooming in and zooming out.
I have many software titles that make use of this shortcut for the same function and it would be a major hassle to change the keybindings for all of these.
How can I turn off the widget panel (and for that matter, how can I change iWork's zoom to use cmd + and cmd -?)
Thanks.danfromgilbert had the right answer for me. In the Mission Control panel, turn off "Show Dashboard as a space", then you must actually USE Mission control (for me it's set to four finger swipe up) the select another app or something, and only then will Command-+ be restored to zoom in.
This was the weirdest thing because I've been using Lion since the beginning and never had this problem. It only changed when I upgraded from Adobe CS4 to Adobe Creative Cloud (CS6). Apparently CS4 apps (Photoshop, Illustrator) had somehow been overriding this weird new preference so I didn't notice Apple had changed it. As noted above, this is a completely stupid decision by Apple, it's been a de facto standard key combo for just about every app since the beginning of the Mac, and something thousands to millions of people literally use hundreds if not thousands of times every day. And who the heck even needs a keyboard shortcut for "Add more widgets"?? Really Apple? Wow, unbelievable.
