GRFSpecs:Todo
To-Do List
Currently the main task is to fix all conversion errors from the change of wikis. Have a look at the "oldest pages" list. Anything dating to 12 June has not been reviewed.
Many terms are used inconsistently. Although it is not a big priority to fix them right now, add an entry or edit existing ones at TermConsistency if you spot any inconsistencies regarding term names.
This page contains a list of 'jobs' that remain to be completed, please follow the example listing when adding/editing information in the table.
- Item - internal link to a page.
- Task - What needs to be done.
- Status - Available (no one working on it), In Progress (someone working on it, include name in parentheses ()), Complete (item has been finished)
- Date Added - DD/MM/YYYY format
- Last Updated - DD/MM/YYYY format
Main List
| Item | Task | Status | Date Added | Last Updated |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Example Item | Example Task | Available | 13/06/2011 | 13/06/2011 |
| VarAction2Cities | Rename to VarAction2 Towns | Done | 14/06/2011 | 15/06/2011 |
| TownZones | Explanation of town zones. Links to all appropiate places. | Done | 14/06/2011 | 16/06/2011 |
| Storages | Explanation of persistent and temporary storages. See TermConsistency. | Done | 14/06/2011 | 14/06/2011 |
| VarAction2IndustryTiles | Right now, VarAction2AirportTiles just links to VarAction2IndustryTiles. This is okay (we should not duplicate information), but that page has almost no explanation about being also for airport tiles. | Available | 14/06/2011 | 14/06/2011 |
| VarAction2NewSignals | This page does not follow the same format than the other VarAction2 pages, and it seems to include information about callbacks. Variables are not named. | Available | 14/06/2011 | 14/06/2011 |
| VarAction2 Towns | There are variables only mentioned in the table and not in description. | Done | 14/06/2011 | 15/06/2011 |
| Page to be created | Description of the 00-3f, 40-5f, 60-7f, 80-ff VarAction2Advanced variable ranges. Comment about why most 80-FF variables are not documented. Also mention the relation between VarAction2 and Action6/7/9/D variables. | Available | 14/06/2011 | 14/06/2011 |
| SpriteLayouts | Move the general explanation (without syntax) for spritelayouts, sprite&recolour flags and bounding boxes for Stations and Houses/Industries/Airports/Objects to a separate page. Also incorporate examples for typical configurations for stations with track and normal buildings (e.g. | this general advice). | Available | 14/06/2011 | 14/06/2011 |
| RealSprites | Add further explanations and recommendations about sprite compressions. | Done | 14/06/2011 | 15/06/2011 |
| IndustryTypes | This page seems to be superfluous. Everything is on IndustryDefaultProps except for the special cases of the AI callback. Maybe they should just be moved to the callback. | Available | 16/06/2011 | 16/06/2011 |
We should come up with a list of usable categories for the pages, thus that some overview / content pages can be auto-generated Suggestions:
- VarAction2
- Action0 (Action0Trains, Action0RoadVehicles, ...)
- Actions (Action 0, Action 1, ...)
- Default values (like vehicle IDs, tile IDs, cargo labels...)
Should page names change to be "better" and more wiki-like: VarAction2Houses -> VarAction2 Houses etc? According to http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Pywikipediabot/movepages.py it seems that it would not be a massive amount of work.
Examples to be Written
Examples should be short, well commented and clearly show how to use the featured item. See VarAction2Objects#Examples
