Official Text

This is what goes after any UFOpaedia entry on every page that has one. Word for word taken from pedia.mt.

Something official text from the in-game UFOpaedia sourced from, word for word, pedia.mt file example example example example example example.  From: Apocalypse Ufopaedia

Pick One!

EASY

  • Vehicles: Equip screen pics of all weapons, devices, engines to their particular pages.
  • Facility: UFOpeadia pics added to right of boxed official text for each page.
  • Buildings: UFOpaedia pics for each organisation's page.
  • Alien Buildings: UFOpaedia pics for each structure AND pic of briefing screen (with text) which shows the target objective.

MEDIUM

  • Vehicles: Quicklinks box needs mini-pics of engines (from somewhere within a pck file).
  • Agent Medals: Rewrite whole page removing boxed parts to be same format as other pages.
  • Incendiary: Add an explaination somewhere about it. Either expand Damage Modifier page or within title page of Agent Equipment.
  • Population: need a Sectoid panoramic like the other new 360º pics.
  • Tactics: fix each page with proper "previous", "next" etc. links to make reading more fluid.

HARD

  • Infiltration Force: Gather all information on each UFO's alien loadout and make a chart which combines them. Add it to: "infiltration page" or "title page of UFO craft" or "UFO incursions page" or its own seperate page.
  • Input Device Reference: Rebuild this page, remove chart format, remove (my) over-the-top explaination or tone it down AND rename this page to "Commands Reference" or "Keyboard&Mouse Commands" or something...
  • Buildings: Title page could be like a frame gallery with the thumbnails of the building pics from in-game UFOpaedia and the words being the link to the relevant building page. eg: this format style

EDITED SOLUTIONS

  • Base Defence: (edited with Apoc'd) find out where/what/why base invaders goto when in your base.

BUG FIX

  • Thumbnail problem when uploading large pics does not work sometimes.
