Collection of Useful "Look 'N' Feel" Variables

[Marenz]

Thanks a lot :-)

[Marenz]

I added your list to https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ ... Game::vars
but the formatting is incomplete so far (didn't have enough time on my hands)

I hate to kill your work, but I already have these vars on the wiki. :(
My formatting on that page is equally bad, however I came up with a great draft idea to organize the vars!

It'll go something like the following. Please excuse the ambiguity of this; it was literally a case of me putting what was in my head into text:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

RE wiki vars page draft: (NEW IDEA!!! <33)


___index page___ (holds table of contents (either in ENTIRETY, or only minus individual vars)
>>>
   
   *  Game Variables
      * A
         (may exclude:) * <varname with A>
         * <another varname with A> (all "A" vars)
      * B
         (all "B" vars)
      * C
         etc.
      etc.
   
   *  Client Specific Variables
      * HUD/GUI
         * A
         etc.
         
      * Configuration variables
   
   *  Server Specific Variables
      * A
      etc.
   
   *  Mapping Specific Variables
   

( each letter group would be it's own section; vars will show in a list using the current draft format )

( need possibly better organizational ideas for client and server vars; needs a few ideas. keep them separate? merge them? do they have enough criteria each? how would they be categorized? (gui/hud, config, etc.) )
         

It's just a rough outline of what it will generally be, yet not all ideas are set in stone.

[Marenz]

Maybe a table would be best suited for this? Those are quite flexible, you can sort it using an column you wish ...
Where can I find the vars in the wiki?

[ZeroKnight]

They will be in tables. It will be organized so that an index page contains a huge table of contents. Every var for every set of letters will have their own page, organized in tables like how I have now. Holding those pages will be general categories like "Game Vars", "Server-side Vars", etc.

https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ ... rs::client

Is my work in progress page. "Client" is going to change to "Game". Well, that page in general wont exist long. I'm still putting the finishing touches on the draft, then I'll start creating it. I'm happy you want to help, (very happy), but would you mind holding off on editing the wiki directly until I have the skeleton set up? Then it's just getting every variable's info and putting it on the wiki.

[ZeroKnight]

Following up with an advancement on the new draft idea: (yes I use HTML formatting and not full MediaWiki formatting. That's just how I roll.)

Again, that's just a rough categorization. I still am not 100% on how to organize the other vars. Examples being: as to what counts as criteria for being a server var, but not a game var, subcategories for Client-side vars, etc.
Rest assured, I have many ideas in the mix.

As a note, to re-clarify, all vars are organized alphabetically, with each letter its own page. Each page will have a list of all vars of that letter in the same formatting as what I have currently done on the WIP page I linked in my previous post.
