Image Hotspots

Hey bram do you think it would be possible to do image hotspots within the wiki? Also another idea I had for a wiki extension, would be to have a list of people in a group - for example the admins/sysops, which when this page is edited (of course it would be protected) would send the same message to everyones talk page - do you think this would be possible? --δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 19:55, 5 May 2008 (BST)

here is a link to the basics of image mapping (or hotspotting) - I was wondering if we could extend it so that we could include jquery within the plugin so we could have images pop up when hovering over an image of a dungeon or sector - related to what is there? --δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 20:24, 5 May 2008 (BST)

Looks fantastic! I'll try and sort out a proper page for it today then we need to feature it on the front page! Then.... we need to do individual sectors and the stuff in each sector.... δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 10:45, 17 May 2008 (BST)

Common.js

Your more than welcome too, I dont know java so wasnt going to go around cutting sections out! δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 20:23, 12 May 2008 (BST)

Thought

Hey Bram, here I was at work reading up about the server still being down, and people complaining about the lack of events being run within the neocron world for newer players and I thought, hmmm dont we (Pheonix) have a huge surplus of rare weaponry? Maybe what we could come up with is some kind of smaller event for low level players sponsored by Neocron Wiki, which we run ingame for the newer players (limit on the skill ranking of the character - If a vet wants to enter then they are still limited by the level cap!). δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 13:48, 28 May 2008 (BST)

Orig Auth

I have sorted the issue with the {{Orig_auth}} template - the url argument is now optional δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 13:08, 29 May 2008 (BST)

Quick thought about "Places of Interest"

Would it be possible to get an invisible category to the place when we use the places of interest tag within the maps? Im just thinking a nice page of all of the places of interest within the neocron would be a nice page to link people too when they are new and looking for adventure. Also dont know if you noticed the image Carnage posted on the forums of the old CS, but it might be worth talking to KK to see if we could get a package of all those images to use on the wiki/itemdb.... δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 13:48, 6 June 2008 (BST)

After a quick search this is the only reference I can find about removing categories, we might need to either make it an API call so we get

 <ncwiki:nocategory>[[Category:Places_of_Interest]]</ncwiki> 

or wait for the new version of MediaWiki to be released with support for individual page CSS (although that could be a pain to maintain) δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 14:09, 6 June 2008 (BST)

Item DB updates

Something missing or wrong with the Item DB...

Please insert Item DB updates below here at the end

Hi, the genotoxic suits in the database are incomplete, the one with str 80 requirement is also only PE. (I noticed it when i went through all that trouble to get one, when it turned out my tank will never be able to use it..., welcome to neocron ey ;)) --Biglines 10:11, 11 June 2008 (BST)

Hi, thanks for the update, but you do know you miss the 3 other genotoxic suits in the db right? there's 3 for PE, and 2 for spy --Biglines 10:56, 11 June 2008 (BST)

Need the stats of them, before I can add them. --Brammers 16:52, 14 June 2008 (BST)

Hi, I don't know how to reach you, so I will try it here. It's cause of the Item DB :) In the TG Hacknet Database are two items. The Special Raygun Cannon with Requirements STR: 115 Faction: Twilight Guardian H-C 122 T-C 89 and the Ryker "Vulcano" Grenade Launcher. The Raygun Cannon is not in the list. Thx -- Wolver   • talk 15:54, 14 June 2008 (BST)

Updated --Brammers 16:52, 14 June 2008 (BST)

Thanks and I will remind the wiki tip :D But I need to annoy you again, cause the Grenade Launcher is only named Ryker now and the icon is a Rocket Launcher. But nice work with the Interface -- Wolver   • talk 14:50, 16 June 2008 (BST)

Hey brammers, pretty much all the vehicle keys are messed up, componentwise, havent got a resser tho so cant be sure --Biglines 18:01, 17 June 2008 (BST)

well, at least the doy gliders are all componentwise different, there's a lot more required, I used th.org to buy parts, but the resser gave me a bp that said i needed a lot of different and more parts, im not a resser so I can't check, and if your bps are from old patches maybe they are wrong? or his might be wrong I suppose... --Biglines 11:28, 19 June 2008 (BST)

Template Fix

The {{nft}} template was designed to allow more than one template to be placed with a mission without ending up with a series of thumbs going down the page. I did this, I think, by removing the float on the image. I dont think there is anything wrong with your fix, so make it live if you want! δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 13:12, 11 June 2008 (BST)

Another template fix

I have had a good look for the culprit and I cant seem to find it, there looks to be a div issue or maybe a span issue within the {{Documentation}} template, it seems to work one minute and not the next... If you get a chance to check my code I would really appreciate it :) δρ • Delphi ^{(t) • (c)} 00:55, 13 June 2008 (BST)

See {{Clan}} to see what I mean, on some pages like {{Deletion}} it is working fine, and on others not....

Vendors

Hi Brammers, is it possible to get some kind of vendors list either in the itemDB or on the wiki? like in the style of Chez Sypher, but if possible also able to search them (now item database stuff isnt searchable with the wiki search, is it possible to add that?)

I mean, this is something that could be especially usefull, since the itemdb show stats, but not where to get them --Biglines 13:41, 19 June 2008 (BST)

Is there a namespace kind of thing or category I should work with if I start making pages about smugglers? make a page for every smuggler, or put all smugglers on one page, or one kind of shop and then the different locations/variations as headings? --Biglines 14:36, 19 June 2008 (BST)

I was thinking about making a subpage for each type of salesNPC inside the shop, for example Archer & Wesson/Low Tech Ammo and then on the Archer & Wesson make a list of locations with the vendors linked there --Biglines 15:48, 19 June 2008 (BST)

TY for the praise ;) It will be slow going though, because I don't know all the locations, and sorting out the item ids is a real pain in the ass, but User:Reaction has already offered to help out a bit with the in-city vendors, and most of the smugglers use the same inventory with some additions I believe, so this should work out fine, mostly checking then. Maybe some announcement for people willing to help out making lists of the item ids of different vendors? --Biglines 01:44, 20 June 2008 (BST)
