Versions

Hey cheyyne, saw that you were busy doing stuff on the wiki. Just so you know, I made a template ages ago which makes it easier to link to versions of the game: Template:InlineVer I think I documented it pretty well, what is missing however is being able to link to a specific build version of a release. (something which imho is ugly, and doesn't provide good information, which is why I never thought about including it, my bad honestly). You might be interested in that, on the template page you can also see the templates to mark specific pages on the wiki, such as guides, as being written for specific versions of the game, and the template for mods. You might find them interesting. --Soyweiser (talk) 08:12, 7 November 2017 (MST)

Btw, never say 'in the most recent experimental' on the wiki. This information never gets updated, and could refer to any version. (it was a big problem on the wiki before, there were places where 'the most recent experimental version meant 0.7). Use the InlineVer template above, and refer to version 0.D (which currently gets translated to 'the experimental version'). When there is a release, it will be easy to only update this template to make 0.D no longer refer to 'experimental' but just to 0.D, and add a new version 0.E which refers to the experimental version. That way we need to do wayyyy less work on the wiki to keep it up to date. Cheers --Soyweiser (talk) 08:18, 7 November 2017 (MST)

Just so you know, I have just updated the InlineVer/Ver/and Mod templates to take an addition argument, which gets printed as text. So now you can easily use stuff like:
{{InlineVer|0.A|Additional text}}
Should be useful. (It has a little bit more use for the mod and ver templates). --Soyweiser (talk) 15:34, 7 November 2017 (MST)
