Re: The Strategy Index
 
I'm going to use this evening to try and update the strategy index sticky, after which I will delete excess posts from it. I have a fair few threads known alredy, but due to the nature of the board's autolog-off, I'll be working on a text file for the time being. I will also fix the tags to use BB code, instead of HTML.

Please be patient. Restoring the Strategy index is currently the top priority for this forum, followed by the bug shortlist and modding wishes shortlist.

Thanks for that! Now that I found the feature, I started going through various stickies (shortlists, server lists) and projects (llamaserver, conceptual balance, dom3database) and ticking the thank you -button. I think there also was a developer appreciation thread, I'll see if I can find that. :D

All Strategy Index links except one have been updated. The single link that has not been updated is marked as such and the reason is that it only had three letter words in the title, which means the search function won't find them because they are too short. If someone finds the "Any Man Advice" thread on the forum, kindly post the link here so it can be added.

I also added several new threads to the index that I found during my digging for the listed threads. Those are marked as new threads on August 12th.

You may now commence worshipping me. ;)

Edi, have you looked at the shortlist? It is in a sad state. I mentioned it briefly in the thread on forum discussion, but I'm not sure if Mindi has noticed. It would be good if the formating could be redone automatically, without you going through everything. I imagine I would not use it as it looks atm.

I have searched for exactly that and instantly found it: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=34294
Remember, use quotes if you are searching for a specific phrase.

I did that with several threads, but it kept giving me flaky results or no results at all, so I lost interest in checking for things if I couldn't find them with some other keywords. That one was the only one I didn't eventually find. It took four and a half hours to find everything in any case.

Yes, I have. Both the bug shortlist and the modding wishes shortlist are next up for rehabilitation. It looks like the forum conversion just converted straight HTML and didn't do a good job of it either. So it probably needs a manual edit to add the list and color tags. The color tags are easy, they can be done with a straight find and replace, but I need to look at the list item issues first.

I'll do the unresolved sections first and then fix the resolved sections at a more leisurely pace. I just gave the strategy index a more immediate priority because it is widely used by almost everyone in the community. The FAQ formatting is on the list of things to do once the shortlists are good.
