Better Documentation

[vampcat]

The DestSol wiki is pretty bare right now. Instead of a giant "Creating Content" page, we need specialized, detailed pages for the following:

• ~General info~ Adrijaned
• Asset System (general principles, explaining things like module:assetName)
• Factions
• ~Ships~ TheGhostInTheMachine
• Guns
• ~Projectiles~ digitalripperynr
• Engines
• ~Particle Emitters~ NicholasBatesNZ
• ~Other helpful links (where we can link things like guides to json)~ Adrijaned

If anyone wants to help out, just mention in the comments what you are working on, I'll update this post accordingly.

I'll try to document projectiles. Do I need to include clips in the same page or create another one ? So the basic idea would be : projectileconfig and textures making clips for projectiles to be use with guns(link to guns section) various properties of projectiles and clips

I'll try to include as many images as possible :)

[Steampunkery]

Probably do clips in the same page because they're pretty tightly coupled.

[arpitkamboj]

Yup ! I'll combine those then.

[Adrijaned]

Added Getting started, which should supplement the Helpful links, since I was not capable of finding any good JSON tutorial. Also, includes some info about licensing and links to several interesting sites/tools

[Steampunkery]

I'll take ships. I just wrote a script to convert a box-2d json to a destsol json so I'll include a DL link to that.

Hey, can we implement this? It allows for custom sidebar order, which would be nice.

[vampcat]

GH already allows for a custom sidebar - even TS uses one. Just click on the "custom sidebar" or whatever button, and it'll bring up an md for you to edit.

[Steampunkery]

@vampcat Take a look at the "Creating a Ship" page as well as the "Abilities" page. I also modified the "Creating Content" page.

[arpitkamboj]

Projectiles and Clips page is complete. I'll start with guns when I get time.
