Welcome!

Hi Rick Dulton! I saw you recently joined UDWiki, and wanted to welcome you on behalf of Project Welcome! If you have any questions or need any help, don't hesitate to contact anyone on that page, or message me directly at my talk page. Have a great day! Bob Moncrief EBDW! 12:32, 9 July 2013 (BST)

RRF map

Hey there, I saw {{BarricadePlanRRF}} and noticed it was a copy/paste of the work I did for {{BarricadePlanMOB}}. Just to say it right up front, I'm totally cool with you using my code for this sort of thing, since I've already reused my own work for BB4's map, and I certainly wouldn't begrudge the RRF using it as well (though clearly you'll want to change it to use RRF colors instead of MOB colors :P). The reason I'm contacting you is because the history for the page seems to indicate that you've run into a few issues while using the template, and I'd like to make myself available to help if you'd like any assistance. It looks like you mostly have it ironed out at this point, but there may be a few lingering things, so if you have any questions, feel free to respond here and I'll get back to you.

Thanks Aichon - much appreciated (on both counts). Looking to adapt the format to add things like survivor counts, wits and so on and allow updating directly from an IRC channel. Anticipating some spin-off work which might be useful for the MOB as well (I have a character in the MOB too and noticed that the MOB map hasn't been updated in a little while). Will certainly let you know if I run into difficulties or have questions. Thanks again for letting me build on your work! --Rick Dulton 04:04, 3 August 2013 (BST)
Yeah, I've been lazy about updating the MOB Locator in the last few months, and at this point I'm kinda winding down my MOB involvement for the time being, so that trend is likely to continue. As for adding all of that stuff, that should all be quite doable if you're limiting your scope to Ridleybank. I wasn't able to do some of that stuff with the MOB version (or the BB4 version) since we needed something that could work in any suburb without needing any customization, but if you're going to be monitoring just one, you can definitely spice the map up quite a bit with more info that's tied to specific locations and the like.

Yup and the whole thing in general is largely immitation of my revision to the DoHS maps waaaay back when when I made them actually usable and ran the DoHS. --Karekmaps 2.0?! 03:54, 6 August 2013 (BST)

Moved your page

Hi Rick! Just so you know, I moved the page you created at Rick Dulton to User:Rick Dulton. Personal pages should be created in the User: namespace rather than the main namespace. If you'd like the page moved to a subpage of your userspace, just let me know below. Thanks! Bob Moncrief EBDW! 02:08, 4 August 2013 (BST)

Oops - sorry about that. Thanks Bob! --Rick Dulton 02:09, 4 August 2013 (BST)
