Updated front page! Fantastic work man, this literally wouldn't have gotten done with out you. Lol.

On an unrelated note, I'm looking at the front page and I hate the way it's organized, it should flow then same way it does in the game. Ie. If its under the Production tab in game it should be there in the wiki. (The Nutrient paste dispenser is a good example, it's in buildings...which doesn't make a lot of sense, it has to be in a building to keep it out of the rain, how can it be a building?) Also, we should prolly decide on a standard format for the boxes on each page leading to the sup pages since they are all different and it looks weird. If I have time tomorrow I'll try to work on some more stuff.

Confession: I was supposed to be the one in charge of modding resources. I laid the groundwork and everything and started the first two tutorials, but it was hard to maintain because of school and everything (there are only 24 hours a day, which is a technical limitation. I filed it as a bug, but the ticket was closed under "won't fix"). :-\

You do what you can, every little bit helps. Helping a little bit is better than not helping at all!

Traits page is done.

If anyone knows how to make large headings without creating a "Contents" box at the top, feel free to change it. It's not a big deal, it's just unnecessary.

Use '''blablabla''' or ===blablabla===
More or less signs changes the header level.

Not only does it change the header level, but it should also auto-gen the Contents box at the top for you.  ;)

Yeah I know it generates it, that's what I didn't want - it's just not necessary for that particular page, but the headings worked well to break up the list. I found it on google anyway though.

Cheers HatesYourFace.  ;D

I'll take care of the research page next.

I'm going to name my first three colonists after you
just for what you've done on the wiki =P

I mean you sure don't deserve to get your legs torn off by stray bullets and have your arms poorly knitted back together
and possibly end up dead in a burning ditch somewhere at the remains of my burning colony
But atleast I can now trust the wiki bit more!
Really appreciated =P

Lol, I have one request, If I become a vegetable I want you to burn me on a log pyre like a warrior king! Ideally all the other colonists will be present to mourn my passing quietly, take pictures! Lol.

Did quite a bit of work on the wiki today, mostly basic pages, links, deleting old/incorrect entries. Just sort of laying the foundation pages for others to come in and jazz up with some tables and stuff since that's all I'm really qualified to do lol. (And just barely I might add, I've gotten by so far via trial and error, process of elimination, and copy/paste!)

Just wanted to say I really appreciate everyone's help/hard work so far, even if you just popped in to fix one small thing. We have an awesome community here.

An especially big shout out to Fernbhoy and DarkGhost, my partners in crime lol...and of course Tynan for helping us find some elusive game files/wiki backend stuff/making the game in the first place.

It's starting to shape up but there is still a lot to do, no rest for the wicked!
