Help needed: The Identity System wiki page

Post by JJRcop » #265074

Hello, I just finished some tweaks for the identity system that were requested of me by maintainers. I am going to rebase my branch against master, since it is kinda old, and there are a lot of merge conflicts that have set in over that month, then after that I will PR it, perform the codebase refactor, then it will be testmerged.

I have a problem though, I am not confident in my wiki writing abilities, and I want players to actually know what's going on. I wrote this page, and pretty much just dumped all the information about the identity system so that way you can understand it. I would like someone to make this page actually look nice, I mean it's functional, kinda, but it's ugly.

By the way I don't mean you need to do it alone, I'll be watching the talk page, so please put in there if you want me to generate a screenshot, or anything else. I'll also be in the #coderbus irc channel, and you can just /msg JJRcop from that client too. If you have any questions on how the system works I will explain it to you, hopefully the existing wiki article will be OK enough for your understanding.

By the way there is no guarantee that the identity system will be accepted, but there is a guarantee that it will be testmerged, which is why I am asking now.

Right now it's functional, although it kinda assumes the reader knows about coding. I'd be happy to rewrite it, but i want to see it ingame so i can explain it from the player's perspective first.

Maybe make it where taking brute damage to the head has a chance to obscure or erase memory.

Make it where if you die, all your memory is lost, but if you make it to the end of each round, you'll have the memories you collected the round before. (for that glorious ring of metafriendallnamers)
