Layout advice for Hero Template?

Hi Phasma! For Template:Hero, I'd like to remove the last big of body text and instead display the town pic/words/whatever somewhere in the main hero left-side panel. Do you have any thoughts about the best place/way to include that? --Legate (talk) 14:26, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

DoR - unusual links

Grotto links to Halfling / Halfling Grenadier. There's also a link to a Neutral Creature list. Are these placeholders waiting for some official information? Do you need help finding / describing some data for the DoR? Csaros (talk)

• Where is it linking to Halflings? I checked the page which is a redirect to the Cove building, and nothing on the DoR sandbox page links to them either. Special:WhatLinksHere/Halfling_and_Halfling_Grenadier doesn't show anything too. Also we don't have any more info on DoR just yet - I ask FirePaladin every now and then but I think the team is hard at work for now! 16:17, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

• Ahh that's all placeholder stuff for now. It's only on sandbox pages so it's all due to change once we know more about DoR so we can at least make the appropriate pages, but we don't know anything other than what we've documented plus a VERY little amount more that we haven't put on here yet (like making the Forge page purely to say that it's in DoR and Cyber Zombies will be a thing or mentioning Valkyries in DoR). If you want to add any info or change things around then I would say to go for it but we don't have any information to change things to just yet! 16:24, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

darkModeShadowFix

I didn't like the appearance of shadows while using dark reader, so I added a css media query to the MediaWiki:Common.css. It only turns on if your systemwide device setting is set to dark mode (in my testing it only switched when I changed the setting in my OS, not my browser). What do you think? –imahero 01:01, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

<span class='darkModeShadowFix'>[[File:Abandoned Mine 4.gif]]</span>

• Looks fine to me for now! I think it's a decent stopgap until every image's shadow is converted to transparent black (.WEBP supports this for animation, .GIF does not) 03:02, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
  • If you tell me what command to run with ffmpeg or imagemagick or whatever other program to convert our gif files to this webp format with transparent black, I will run it and also run other commands to batch replace all the current usages of the .gif version with the new .webp version. If necessary I could also probably do a more complex operation using the PIL library from python to replace individual pixels. Would you mind uploading an example webp for me to inspect so I can figure out what exactly it is I might need to do? –imahero 03:18, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
    • File:Pikeman.webp slight issue now - I can render out as webp animation, I can see it when I drag it into my browser to view it, I can upload it here and open it in a new tab to view it, but it won't natively display here or on discord. I think I'm missing something or messing something up... 12:47, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
      • I think it might just be a discord/mediawiki issue. Maybe we need a new extension or something. –imahero 00:13, 26 September 2024 (UTC)

Lololol. Seriously, Phasma, you have been doing a great job getting the campaign pages fleshed out! And the Timeline. And the Main page. You rock. --Legate (talk) 03:31, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

• Hahaha, thank you! And just as I see this message, I have finished all of the Factory campaigns' pages. Congratulations and kudos to you for also being on the ball with your optimisations, templates, and contributions in general! 03:47, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

Deus Ex Machina Heroes

• Hi Phasma. Some of the heroes on Deus Ex Machina look suspect:
  • There are 2 Ysedore listed.
  • 'lust' looks like he might be missing the first few letters of his name?
    • I've amended the duplicate hero, and no, "Iust" is his name. Remember you can also easily double check these things yourself now with the campaign & map editor! If you think something is wrong, you can check and amend it yourself! 20:02, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
    • I think I am behind the times on this...how do I get access to the factory campaign files? --Legate (talk) 00:30, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
      • Use the Campaign Editor, click "Edit", click "Scenario Properties", then export each map. 01:27, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
    • I sent you the json files on discord if that's what you're after. –imahero 00:49, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
  • Got them now, thanks! --Legate (talk) 01:44, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Factory

Do you have any idea how close the factory expansion is to being released? 21:03, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

No idea whatsoever, I can only hope it's sometime this year... I can only rip and repurpose so many files and screenshots to fill the void of the new content we currently lack :(( 17:52, 04 February 2023 (UTC)

Hero Class

created placeholders for factory heroes' primary stats. u can replace it with ur data in case u are already sure its solid enough.

talking about ur recent image work - im afraid we have a problem with a global unmarked hota intrusion here. our basic version is sod and the presence of any hota fixes should be visible right in the file name or at least in a file category. i consider the mere idea of having m/f heroes distinction in the hero class templates by no means good, i uploaded these guys Category:Hero_class_(adventure_map) Category:Hero_class_(adventure_map)_HotA exactly for that, but was waiting for factory release ever since. but the sod info still should go first, so all this should be realized via 'switch' template or something. --GroundhogYear (talk) 10:51, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Ahh I see, perhaps I'll have to give it a go with a switch template then, to switch between default SoD graphics and the edited template I made to include the HotA graphics. And thank you for your help with the placeholders since I couldn't get the code to reference them! I think it's an issue with the class pages for the Factory heroes but I have no idea since I copied the code from the Cove's Captain class page -- 15:48, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Maps

You're doing it Phasma! 02:37, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

HAHA someone had to eventually! Been a bit sick lately so might as well clean up all the dead links in the downtime I have! -- 12:55, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Did I delete the right ones? One was incorrectly marked for deletion, right? 02:55, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

Yep, all good! And I'm taking a little break but I'll finish the rest of the SoD maps soon, HotA ones will take time with manually screenshotting them. 05:50, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

Profile Color

I think B070B2 might be a better match for your profile color. Up to you though! 12:43, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Ooh thank you! I'll give it a try! --Phasma (talk) 12:30, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
