I need some help:
I tried to upload an example map for Stacked Sectors and got a warning



same with 7z or wad extensions.

Now I wonder how Polyexample.zip was uploaded.

[Gez]

It was uploaded by Randi, so it's possible that the option to ignore warnings and force upload was used (it's available to admins). It's also possible that when it was uploaded, there was no restriction on zip files.

For [wiki]CCMDs:Debug[/wiki], I was thinking of adding this section:

Code: Select all

==Actor Lists==

These commands print a list of actors inside the level you are currently playing.

* '''{{LE|actorlist}}''' [filter]
:Without parameters, displays every actor currently in the level. (List can be quite big on detailed mods) Can also filter by actor type, i.e. "actorlist zombieman" will list all actors that are zombieman, living or dead.

* '''{{LE|items}}''' [filter]
:Same as above, but only lists items you can currently pick up.

* '''{{LE|countitems}}''' [filter]
:Same as above, but only lists items that count towards your intermission tally at the end of the level.

* '''{{LE|monster}}''' [filter]
:Same as 'actorlist' but only lists monsters currently in the level, living or dead.

* '''{{LE|actornum}}''', '''{{LE|itemsnum}}''', '''{{LE|countitemsnum}}''', '''{{LE|monsternum}}''' [filter]
:These commands do the exact same thing as each of their respective counterparts above, except instead of showing lists, they only give you the total counts.

Is this formatted correctly? Is there anything that should be changed? Is there a reason these commands haven't been documented previously that should stop me from putting this in?

[Gez]

Go for it.


Since the Doom Wiki now offers https, I figured I might update the [wiki=Special:Interwiki]interwiki table[/wiki], but I get a weird error message when attempting to do so:

Database error

A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.

• Query:

Those commands are already here: http://zdoom.org/wiki/CCMDs:Informational

Ooops - reverted, then. I don't know why they didn't come up on searches.

Would a kind soul add REOPEN scripts to [wiki]Script_types[/wiki]? Thanks! :D

[Rachael]

I put something in. Feel free to make it better. >_> If you think I should change it, just let me know.

[Nash]

That looks perfect and summarizes everything that ever needs to be said about it (it was a simple feature, heh). Thanks! :D

[Rachael]

You're welcome.

[wiki]CCMDs:Other[/wiki]

Maybe this page should be updated for this commit - http://zdoom.org/Changelog/f72ebe6/files - but I am really not sure what templates should be used for the extra parameters since they are not 2.8.1 features.

[Gez]

Usually when this happens I just put the changed/added stuff on a separate line.

[Rachael]

Alright - I applied similar edits to [wiki]CCMDs:Debug#Map_changes[/wiki]. But I am not sure the styling is up to standard - please feel free to change that.

[NeuralStunner]

Styling looks fine to me.

Question for anyone with wiki-admin rights: I lost my account password and I'm afraid I may have registered under an ancient (read: haven't used in over a decade) e-mail address so I can't use the Forgot Password thingy. Are there any recovery options available or shall I just create a new user account?

[It's really no big deal to re-register; it's not like my old account has any imaginary wiki-points to lose. ]
