3D Cinemas

Continuing from our in-game conversation, all you do is check the clothing options in any cinemas you find for 3D glasses and then add the cinema's wiki page to 3D Cinemas. So far I have been keeping track of cinemas with this and this. I was debating on placing the template in the Template space, but since it's not completed I haven't. Feel free to edit it if you want to add cinema locations. --Klex ur 04:45, 24 October 2012 (BST)

Okay-dok. Which suburbs do you (and I) want to do? -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 00:24, 25 October 2012 (BST)

These suburbs have no cinemas and therefore need not be checked:

Barrville, Dartside, Darvall Heights, Dunningwood, Eastonwood, Gibsonton, Greentown, Grigg Heights, Judgewood, Ketchelbank, Pegton, Penny Heights, Pescodside, Ridleybank, Williamsville, Wyke Hills

These have already been found to have 3D glasses so we could skip checking them for now:

East Boundwood, Gatcombeton, Lerwill Heights, Pashenton, Quarlesbank, Rhodenbank, Roftwood, Roywood, Ruddlebank, Shuttlebank, West Grayside, Whittenside, Yagoton

That just leaves the rest of Malton, except the northern edge which I walked through once and the cinemas were either ruined or non-3D. I really need to recruit more people to help with this considering how large an area it is to search. --Klex ur 15:41, 25 October 2012 (BST)

I could start with the SW corner, and work my way east. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 16:15, 25 October 2012 (BST)

Thanks, that'd actually be a big help. --Klex ur 16:58, 25 October 2012 (BST)

Apparently, ruined buildings prevents any clothing items to be found, so this will be more difficult than I thought, with all the generators, fuel, and ammo I'll need.-- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 21:01, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I found that out the hard way when I started. I didn't think to mention things like that. Sorry. =S --Klex ur 02:32, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

I feel bad that you've been making so many updates and I haven't. It's hard finding a revive in some of these deserted suburbs. I don't know how you manage it. --Klex ur 04:57, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

I checked cinemas in Brooksville and most of the South Blythville (only Bennet Cinema isn't checked. I was going through recent changes, with aid of pure boredom it felt like good idea. If you don't belive me you can go and double check it - all cinemas in area are caded. --Labla 16:45, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

A question...

I've posed this question before, but with all the wiki game work you've done, you might know an answer. Is there a way through a link to edit a page? I really, really want to make single click updates for buildings (you click on safe, ruined, etc and then just click submit), but I don't know how or if it's possible to add text to the edit box (I'm pretty sure there is a way to do so with the subject line, but that doesn't help). You seem like quite the wiki... um, gnome, and I thought you might have some suggestions on the matter. --_K 23:18, 25 April 2013 (BST)

If I remember correctly, InputBox allows you to have pre-set/pre-loaded (automatically placed) text/code in the edit box when you create a page. (This is to help out newbies; I don't know about already-existing pages.) I also remember you could remove the search field and just have a named button, such as "Safe" or "Ruined". We don't have this extension and we're not getting it. (I asked.) I know Klexur managed to have a template pop-up automatically, but yeah, that doesn't help. I'm pretty sure this requires an extension, so no luck.

If you had only one hand, you'd be forced to combine them. Or maybe you'd be missing just one part. A third hand, I'm not so sure. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 23:16, 28 May 2013 (BST)

Minigame comments

Hey! I'm starting to play your minigame in the hotel. I noticed one thing so far: here it says "The dead bring snap wooden panels over the windows..." Am I just having trouble parsing the sentence, or are there two verbs there? Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 01:19, 23 June 2013 (BST)

It's a typo. Thanks. It's nice having more than three eyes. DO YOU SEE WHAT I DID THERE? -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 02:24, 23 June 2013 (BST)

One more - in this spot and its equivalent spots in the other pathways (at least the couple I checked), the sentence "None no specific as a knock" appears, which I think should be "None as specific as a knock" or something like that? And I assume it's a joke about me wearing glasses... Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 19:51, 23 June 2013 (BST)

I'm not sure about that one. It does sound fine to me. That 'as' is an adverb, and there's such a thing as an adverb 'no'. (In a not-really-the-same-sentence such as this: they were no more able to perform the task than I was.) I don't know. I might go through and rewrite it later. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 01:27, 24 June 2013 (BST)

The problem is that it's not being used as an adverb. In your example, "no more" modifies "were". In the one Bob cited, "no specific" modifies "none", which makes no sense. "None so specific" could be used instead, but it'd have a meaning contrary to what you intended. Likewise, "as" would have the same problem. —Aich on— 02:14, 24 June 2013 (BST)

Speak/Graffiti

Hello again. Is there a way to include the speak and graffiti functions for custom-made in-game Urban Dead templates?

Trying to replicate the current in-game visuals as much as possible, while still adapting them for the new style I have in mind.

If you want to check it out: Linkage. I could use feedback.

Thanks!-- TheBardof Old 18:02, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Functionally, can't have a speak/graffiti action. It'd work out similar to Zork. But it's possible visually:

I like marshmallows.Speak

(Haven't put this together into a template.) Your suburbs are cool. I figured it would be fun to have temporary cities that would cycle through, alongside the Malton gameplay.

Spillover from admin pages

RE: Dead name/link change I wanted to make sure you saw my comment on the Admin page. Not only does it seem integrally wrong for a newer group to essentially replace an old one, when for historical purposes none should ever supplant another, but I also thought since its historical its not supposed to be modified? Imnot against the new group but they should come up with their own idea or accept becoming the sequel/next gen. Shouldnt really be anj issue to change the group name too if all the characters are their own users too right? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Neutral objector (talk • contribs) 01:59, 13 May 2018.
