New weapons help document & HTML template

Jourin · #1 March 19th, 2001, 06:58 PM

I am getting an access violation when I try to use it. I am using one of the modes that has the Sprint Ship Missile and the Heavy Bombardment Missile. It works for the sprint missile but fails at Heavy Bombardment Missile or immediately prior to Meson. Attached is screen shot of error.

I think this is really great!

Thanks for trying it out on your mod'd components.txt, Jourin!

Could you please email me your components.txt file so I can run the program on it and see what happens? (I included my email address in the readme file with the program.) Thanks.

Hi raynor and coldsteel,

this is really good work. And an Index is a good idea.

Very nice ...

raynor, I just sent you some email with the fix to the "Range and Damage" inconsistent cell size problem. Other info and comments in there as well. Let me know if I can do anything else to help.

Hello ColdSteel !

Just tried out CompHTML and had some minor quibbles about it
- there are some errors and "not-so-nices" in the HMTL code (I promised to look through it and send raynor some "sample pages" this weekend)
- and I would suggest moving all format/layout info into a seperate .css file, so it would be easier (or possible at all) to adjust colours and font size for personal preference.

What do you think about that ?!

Hi Arralen,

I too found some errors Last night in the first template and sent the corrections to raynor. My HTML editor error checker now say everything is fine.

I'm not sure how to move the formatting out into another file as you suggest. This is my "learn HTML" project and I've never played with it before so I'll freely admit that I'm a rank beginner when it comes to this stuff.

Here is the latest updated SE4Weapons HTML template that I just sent to raynor. It fixes a problem with cell sizes for the Range and Damage Tables. The latest SE4index HTML template is available in an earlier message under this topic. If you want to play with them and make suggestions or improvements, please feel free to do so. Bear in mind that raynor has to replicate everything in the templates in his code within the program so some reformatting when he does that is probably inevitable.

Thanks for the input.

Ok, I'll have a look at it tomorrow (at work

), fi I find the time for this.

Doing everything in CascadingStyleSheets in a seperate file will in fact make the programming a lot easier - you needn't care about layout etc., as you can adjust this later when the acutal HTML-pages are already generated ..

I hope I can get some example done soon !!
