Some ideas for the site itself
 
Break apart the readme into intelligible chunks on the main page. Such that you have an online install guide.

Bold font the questions and put the list atop. That way people can scan quicker to find their particular question, if it exists.

ex:

q1
q2
q3
q4

q1 (question)
a1 (answer)

Or, alternatively, what about using something like wiki for the faq? Maybe even the install guide too?

A BB ping set on registered servers so you know what is up/down, how many players are on, and that sort of thing.

A snippets library/alt code and scripts code download links like the diku line. This could also be done in a wiki format.

I'd be glad to help take the readme apart into a format for the site. LMK.

Also, I'd like to see the readme updated with the additions of all the zone shortnames..

I printed them out, but I figured since it contained the skill lists (which are wrong btw) , it should probably contain the zone names too...

Malevolent 04-05-2002 02:55 AM

On that note, I don't know how many times I've had to lookup either that, a skill #, or something else. If they each had their own link off the main site, it'd help out quite abit. Is it really that hard to scan the readme? No, but "it'd be nice" :)

E.g., a section for mob list, trump's zone-snames, skill list, &c.

Give me a list of zone shortnames and i'll throw em in :)

Another request: Could you also mark with a * or other token what base types are in the global char file? THere's a list, but it'd be helpful to know *which*

Thanks

Wish i knew that, Malevolent.. or i would.

Drawde 04-07-2002 05:50 AM

As far as I know the character models in the global files are (apart from player races obviously)-

Werewolf (14)
Wolf (42)
Bear (43)
Imp (46)
Skeleton (60)
Elemental (75)
Scarecrow (82)
Spectre (85)
All the Gods
