MarkCode82 21 Posted March 11, 2016 I've noticed the wiki is a mess, links linking to unrelated pages, it is so bad it's almost Swiss cheese.Things severely need organizing. Not cross linking ArmA 2 with ArmA 3 etc, Operation flashpoint. etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pedeathtrian 99 Posted March 11, 2016 1. Suggest your perfect structure. 2. Who will implement it? 3. When will it be ready? / How much downtime will transition produce? 4. Will it be suitable for the community? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 11, 2016 1. Download the free wiki cms used by everyone. 2. Fill it as you think you must fill it. 3. Give the link here 4. Enjoy Feedback Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkCode82 21 Posted March 11, 2016 "Perfect" no. Related architecture yes. ArmA 2 really only referred to in footnotes. ArmA 3 related content, should be improved, Introduction to Scripting page should have ArmA 3 Scripting Commands reference added to it's main body.Directory references like this are just down right screwy Category:Command Group: Mission Information > setAmmoCargo > Category:Command Group: Environment > rain > setRain I mean setRain yes is command group environment, but one adjusts the environment "rain" gets the value. It's not mission information it's environment information generated by the game itself. Not the mission. But okay rain and set rain could happily be catagorised together. but setAmmoCargo, no thats completely different to setRain Command Group Environment:rainfogovercast waves etc. All environmental values, but shouldn't refer back to setAmmoCargo?

R3vo 2654 Posted March 11, 2016 Well, that will never happen, except BIS employs someone who takes care of the wiki fulltime. I'd already be happy if we could get a better search functionality and a text editor like here in the forums to add notes etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

killzone_kid 1329 Posted March 11, 2016 Directory references like this are just down right screwy Category:Command Group: Mission Information > setAmmoCargo > Category:Command Group: Environment > rain > setRain So you copied the links BIKI shows you under command title, which is actually your viewing history, so that you can complain how messy it is? You like to criticise things you don't understand, don't you? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pedeathtrian 99 Posted March 11, 2016 Nothing stopping you create an account and helping to tidy it up You mean to tell me there's free registration on BIKI? I could only find "Log in" link there. Meanwhile, I scanned Category: Scripting Commands page and found these commands present on this page, but not present in Category: Introduced with Arma 3 version 1.56: add3DENLayer add3DENConnection add3DENEventHandler all3DENEntities apply collect3DENHistory configNull cursorObject create3DENComposition create3DENEntity current3DENOperation delete3DENEntities do3DENAction edit3DENMissionAttributes get3DENConnections get3DENMissionAttribute get3DENCamera get3DENLayerEntities get3DENActionState get3DENEntityID get3DENIconsVisible get3DENMouseOver get3DENSelected get3DENAttribute get3DENEntity get3DENGrid get3DENLinesVisible getClientStateNumber getMissionConfigValue getMissionConfig getRelPos getRelDir is3DENMultiplayer is3DEN leaderboardDeInit leaderboardGetRows leaderboardInit move3DENCamera ppEffectEnabled remove3DENEventHandler remove3DENConnection pushBackUnique remove3DENLayer removeAll3DENEventHandlers selectRandom set3DENAttribute set3DENAttributes set3DENGrid set3DENLayer set3DENObjectType set3DENIconsVisible set3DENLinesVisible set3DENMissionAttributes tvSetText There's also setObjectMaterialGlobal command page missing from Category: Introduced with Arma 3 version 1.54 UPD: I scanned all commands for their presence in respective categories and they all seemed to be ok, except for the gearSlotAmmoCount command which has unknown version.

pedeathtrian 99 Posted March 11, 2016 It is right there, look carefully Nope, sir. Still can't see it. I retrieved the list automatically and then checked manually, there shouldn't be error. Rechecked this specific command again. It is absent. What do I do wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dreadedentity 278 Posted March 11, 2016 Arma 2 information carries over into Arma 3, as OFP information carried over to Arma 2. Information that applied to previous games is (mostly) still relevant to future games. BIS doesn't seem to want to clean things up, so it allows for greater backwards-compatibility. This is why getDammage, setDammage, and the "Dammaged" event handler still exist at all 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pedeathtrian 99 Posted March 11, 2016 ... Is it by any chance hidden from non-logged-in users or something? Tried other browser, cleaning cache and stuff... nothing helps. For me it shows 20 links in this category. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarkCode82 21 Posted March 11, 2016 To ensure clean data etc. Rechecking1. Dynamic IP re-assigned (All routers restarted)2. ipconfig /flushdns3. Purge Browser cache4. Re purge cache. Goto following addresshttps://community.bistudio.com/wiki/setRainDirectory structure remains the same:History wouldn't be recorded, all cookies and other cross-site data was erased to ensure clean check.Remain exactly the same. Category:Command Group: Mission Information > setAmmoCargo > Category:Command Group: Environment > rain > setRain Trust me I do understand it. And all Primary catagories e.g Comamnd Group environment should go back to this page: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:Scripting_Commands_Arma_3> https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Scripting_Commands_by_Functionality > Category:Scripting Commands Arma 3 > Scripting Commands by Functionality > Category:Command Group: Environment Additionally: remoteExec > BIS fnc MP > Category:Arma 3: FunctionsShould route back to. At the top header where Scripting Commands by Functionality optimises access to the data much easier.Has alreaady been done nvm. (I also noticed a while ago some commands were not present in each functionality catagory. Can't remember which ones. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:Command_Group:_Multiplayer Is missing links to remoteExec and remoteExecCall and their respective sub-catagories. (Definitely missing) Makes more sense does it not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarkCode82 21 Posted March 11, 2016 Ah I know what might be going on. I'm a public user, I'm not logged in. Even so I did clear my browsers cache etc. So the chance for cookie references is gone. But remoteExec & remoteExecCall are definitely missing from the multiplayer sub-catagory. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Scripting_Commands_by_FunctionalityCategory:Command Group: Multiplayer > remoteExecCategory:Command Group: Multiplayer > remoteExecCall All recent changes probably should also report to I think we can definitely agree the wiki has some holes?
