Re: Updated the FAQ
Ok, now that we're all friends again, we've sung our Kumbaya's and all that happy stuff, let's get back to business. I'm still letting the "dust settle" after the release of v1.91. I intend to put together one "Last" revision that has a bunch of things. ("Last" being only until another one is needed.) Here's what I'm thinking:
- I want to add a small section for "true newbie questions and frequent mistakes". I'd like input on this one. I'm thinking of things like colonizers with no population or other mistakes we have all made. I'll consolidate all these into a small section near the top, add a short answer, and refer the readers to various other sections of the FAQ if relevent. Maybe a "top ten list" or something of that nature. This section will be intended to be small.
- Update any sections for correctness under v1.91.
- Hopefully get Stone Mill (I've seen you lurking recently...) to finish, or at least do another installment to the Strategy Articles section.
- Incorporate things in this thread and others I have been keeping track of that contain applicable info since Last update.
- and do a Last scrub for overall formatting, etc. with the idea that I probably won't be updating it again.
- Last chance for anyone to submit anything. I'll target around the end of April or so. By then there will probably be revised mods out which use the new features in 1.91 so any issues under the new patch should have been found by then
Please know that I have tried a few methods of editing and the sheer size of the faq is becoming unwieldy (sp?). Copying/pasting into another editor usually results in losing some of the particular formatting that is used on this UBB. Using the UBB editor here is causing the board to almost choke and, even though you don't see it in the FAQ itself, there are lots of "errors" reported as it saves the text (even though it appears to save it properly in the end). The size is approaching some limit of the UBB. Hopefully there is room for a little more.
