Item Categorization

This is an overview of the Item Categorization:

We stop using Category:Items on all individual Item Articles, and only use the other tiers of categories. A Helmet would go in Armor, Helmets and a Class/or/Faction. A Rifle will go in Weapons, Ranged Weapons, Rifles and Class/or/Faction. The Consumables category will be quite empty for now, but we keep it in case we want to separate the sections.

Any opinions on the Categories btw? --Leord 13:16, 16 November 2007 (CET)
One thought is to have a lot more categories, and only put items in the top and bottom tier of category, to simplify searching and finding weapon (like "Category:Summoner Leg Armor" etc). This really needs a licking! --Leord 13:48, 19 November 2007 (CET)

Navboxes

We need to look over:

Health Injectors

I believe I saw something by Ivan somewhere about what happens when you use multiple health injectors at once - either nothing happens, or it increases the duration of the healing, but not the rate. Can't find it to quote, though.--Lanthanide 07:55, 6 October 2006 (CEST)

I didn't know you could use multiple...
You can't. They and powerpacks have a 10 second cooldown, and a 5 second shared cooldown (meaning if you use a health injector it's cooldown is 10 seconds, but powerpacks also gain a 5 second cooldown). --Tenera 04:39, 16 November 2007 (CET)
Ok, then any references to any such information needs to be updated. --Leord 13:09, 16 November 2007 (CET)

Taking Screenshots

When you take a screenshot of an item, keep in mind you can click in the top half of the Inspection window and click-and-drag to reposition the auto-rotating graphic to take a more centered screenshot. --Mileron 18:47, 6 December 2007 (CET)

WHAT?! I didn't know this! Cool! You should make a brief forum post about it as well, I am pretty sure most people don't know about it. --Leord 13:44, 7 December 2007 (CET)

prelaunch?

"There will be more than 100 base weapon types" sounds very pre launch to me, shall we tidy or send to pre launch:Items and redo? [User:Dazaris|Dazaris]

Right you are. the thing is that I don't really want to move it away unless we have a good new page to replace it with. How do you reckon we should do? --Leord 16:18, 14 January 2008 (CET)

Item feeds

From patch notes (I read it while patching my single player):

  • Items dropped in the world now have slightly lower overall feed requirements.

Does that mean if we adds the requirements of an item from one in the store, its wrong to an extent? Do we put up both? Is this even true? Threw it here since it has to do with all items. --Dazaris 17:56, 13 January 2008 (CET)

Probably, yeah :( That is what sucks with the fact that we can't just scrape their database and add it automatically to HellgateDigger, for instance. That is why we should have a date to when added attached to items btw. --Leord 16:19, 14 January 2008 (CET)
In that case, how are we going to about it? shall we make a table with 2 lines, loot and shop bought? any other ideas? Dont want to do any more items till we work this out in case we change it a bit Dazaris 02:41, 17 January 2008 (CET)
Give me an example of it.
I can't do wiki tables lol, Im shocking at them, but it doesn't matter, I can confirm with at least 1 item I found and saw in a shop (found a 25mm rifle in eastcheap, one for sale in monument), both same stats, same mod slots, and same feed req, so thats either old and changed or I got lucky
