Cheese Effect

For the Cheese, what if instead of your plus system:

+++3
++2
+1
00
--1
---2
----3

 ?

I suppose that would work with sorting; I'll test it out now. --Peter888 09:34, 27 November 2008 (UTC)


Trap Combination Table

Your trap combinations + sorting is great. You should put it in :) It'd also be nice if you separate the Name into Weapon and Base columns, and enable sorting so that players can look at the combination for a particular weapon or base, ie all Deathbot + Base combinations.

You can also consider merging the Power, Power Bonus, and Total Power into Total Power if you're adding an additional Trap Combination's Page, rather than replacing the data currently in Traps

Overall really nice table you have there -- Grexx 18:12, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

It is really nice, remember to add the craftint instructions to the new trap. --Meurquidi 04:09, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
I have to agree -- this is very useful and should be released (in)to public. One thing I noticed is a mistake in the Shadow/Arcane Table: Cheese Effect for Salt and Ice shouldn't be 3 but 4 as in the the Physical/tactical Table above. _____m. 20:46, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Cheese effect for the two bases have been fixed. --Peter888 20:54, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Sorry to bother but it's still not perfect: Ambrosial and Sinister don't have the same effect... unfortunately I don't have the time to dig into this right now but the table is too good not to be made perfect... will look into it soon _____m. 21:10, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Sorting tip

If you want to display text that is more meaningful to average users but still sort properly, you could use a SPAN tag to maintain proper sort order but visually have only the "Very Stale" text and so forth. Here's how:

<span style="display:none;">4</span>Very Fresh

(NOTE: I made zero effort to ensure that "4" corresponds with "Very Fresh" — just a random number.) Sorting will sort on the number, which will not be visible to the user, and not on the text itself. I've used something similar on a different wiki with great success. As far as the end user is concerned, it's magic. :-) -- B.Rossow talkcontr 22:09, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
