RE: The wiki update status - Anaximander - 11-18-2012

Ok I can do that if you want me to and point me to a tutorial for how to do the wiki thing?

not ready for it yet


RE: The wiki update status - Ursus - 11-19-2012

Ships, turrets and missiles/torps/cds have been converted to "NN deg/s (NN rad/s)" for rotation and turning rates. The lists have been uploaded, but the detail pages have to wait for admin bulk-upload.

Also, the ship turn-rate is now a 4-way average of UP/DOWN/SIDE/SIDE which is way more representative than the old data which was UP only. Eagle may turn a tighter vertical loop than Wraith but (a) nobody flies vertical loops and (b) even less people fly them all the time. Sideways turn-rate is way more representative of actual gameplay. However, I kept up/down rates in the average to smooth the numbers out and give a more overall feel.

I have "responsiveness" numbers and strafe speed numbers for each ship as well, but that is work-in-progress, and will also have to wait for bulk upload.

All the ship reviews seem to have vanished, what is the story behind that?


RE: The wiki update status - Ursus - 11-20-2012

At the moment they are still there, just not displaying. The template that displays the reviews with that little box is rejecting them. Its been like that for a while.

Going forward, the reviews will almost certainly be lost when new ship data is uploaded, since there's no obvious automatic way to export just the review data.

Because they're pretty much all outdated. Capitals, in particular, before and after Turret Splitting.

I manually uploaded a few of the new ship pages, while we wait for an admin to do them in bulk

Seems ok, although there's no mention of the cargo hold size on any of them (other than working it out from the cloak data).

template wasn't displaying the cargo space, fixed now
