Script: That is the plan.
If this still happens Monday morning (EST) can you give me a hint, or just make a bug report in the bugs-board yourself?

I tried to sign up earlier but got the same database error as above.
I'm not entering my real name, a CV or whatever, what's up with this?

For the record, this is why I haven't contributed to the wiki. Personally, I do not see why I should have to publish personal information for the privilege of spending my time helping a for-profit company.

Looks like the bs has been fixed. Now the form just wants your email.

So the personal biography section is optional, then? If so, it should be explicit about it.

I just put "User pages are a thing that exists? :o"

That information is quite optional. In my opinion the things you work on the wiki reveal much more about you, than any personal page.

Hey, I applied on the wiki about a day ago.
To expand on my application, I want to help with fixing grammatical errors and fill out any data I can. Right now the wiki's in a kind of poor state due to the broadness of the data implemented so I'd like to help fix that.

Hi there,
I would like to recommend that under the commands section on the wiki you add these to the bottom-
First 2 set game to peacefull and kill enermys
Code: Select all
/c game.peaceful_mode = true
/c game.forces["enemy"].kill_all_units()
next 2 cause biters to repawn where they may have all been removed- "Repace spawner base's"
Code: Select all
/c game.regenerate_entity("biter-spawner")
/c game.regenerate_entity("spitter-spawner")
=== Please turn off peacefull and kill all units agine to see change in spawners ===
If you want to regenerate any ores modded or otherwise.
-------------STOCK-ORES----------------------
Code: Select all
/c game.regenerate_entity("iron-ore")
/c game.regenerate_entity("copper-ore")
/c game.regenerate_entity("coal")
/c game.regenerate_entity("stone")
-------------MODDED-ORES---------------------
Some of these are used in 5dim and Bobsores
tho should work for any ore type!
Code: Select all
/c game.regenerate_entity("zinc-ore")
/c game.regenerate_entity("tin-ore")
/c game.regenerate_entity("bauxite-ore")
/c game.regenerate_entity("gold-ore")
/c game.regenerate_entity("lead-ore")
---------------------------------------------------
I requested an account on the wiki so i could add this directly however it would seem the "request section is maybe broken idk"
i post here in hope someone will be able to make use of it!
*Reason why*
Last night i was using a mod "RSO" and it had turned off all spawns in the end i figured out how to edit the world and add a few manualy. Took 7 hours of triel and error (more errors) however
i have since figured out the above command would have respawned all remove bitters and if needed regenerated the ores.
i had the same problem on a server map when i removed a mod that added harder enermys "because it was spawning unkillable mobs" day 1!
we had to start the world over due to all the enermy bases being gone..
this would have solved it..
==
thank you and sorry in advance for spelling, grammer and genraly ramblering. my morphine has just kicked in.. so i can bearly see the screen!
-- Peace!--
Dennis / Darkheart

Please if you are still not assigned, please create a bug report! They will normally fix such stuff meanwhile very fast during the weekdays.

Sorry to necro this post or whatever, but I requested an account several days ago and still haven't gotten an email about it. I checked in my spam folder and everything.

Did you get a email address confirmation email? If yes, Gangsir or Klonan will create your account. This may take a while as they go through the requested accounts about once a week. I asked Gangsir if he can go through them today, so you won't have to wait much longer. If you didn't get a email adress confirmation email you either mistyped your email adress or there was another error. If that is the case, we wiki admins aren't able to help you, sorry.

Ah sorry, the email notifications for new user requests seems to be broken

The one account idea is firm, but it would require a lot of cooperation between the three websites.

Please no. This forum has like 5000 spammers banned because everybody can make an account. We really don't want those spam bots to have accounts on the wiki.
