[edit] error error does not compute

BattleBlaze: I can't add anything!? how does this work? I cant find a help file. I wrote an article on Faking weather but I keep getting an error message

Bob: Can you describe the error message?

Database error From OHRRPGCE-Wiki A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: (SQL query hidden) from within function "SearchMySQL4::update". MySQL returned error "1062: Duplicate entry 'w' for key 3 (localhost)". Retrieved from "http://gilgamesh.HamsterRepublic.com/wiki/ohrrpgce/index.php/Creating_and_implementing_weather_animation_on_a_map"

Bob: Ooh, yeah, I have seen that one before. not sure what causes it. Anyway, try again. I was able to create an empty test page, so hopefully you can edit that with no problems.

BB-Still gettint the error

BattleBlaze: Still aint working hamsterman. The preview button works.Bu not the save page button. :/

Mike: It looks like you managed to get the content in. However, I got the error myself. James, try running a REPAIR on the sql table, see if that fixes it.

Bob: I ran REPAIR on all the tables that support repair (about half don't because they are InnoDB type rather than MyISAM)

Mike: Hmm... Either there's an error in an InnoDB table, or that's not the problem... Since I can't see the query, that's about all I can help you with :\

[edit] Works Now

BattleBlaze:Well my simple weather article is up and running now > I dunno what happened but I tip my hat.


[edit] Plotscripts

Yoshiboy: I think we should add a link to the plotscript tutor at the end of the HOWTO chapters list, just so people know where to go next, because, it's basically the next step up from the rest.

The Mad Cacti: A fair suggestion. "Added "next step" see also links"

[edit] Moved Page

Turned the Weather HOWTO into a FAQ,

[edit] Footer?

Yoshiboy: When you made the footer as the list HOWTO Main page for the HOWTO chapters, i personally don't like it much. I liked it better when it was a verticle list, because it was easier to read and see the chapters, as well as it matched the other lists on the screen. What do you think? But when I say that, I only mean it for main HOWTO page, it still looks good at the bottom of the HOWTOchapters!

Mike C. James, I hate to break this to you, but the box is not pretty. It fails because it's physically seperating the content (the list of chapters) from the header.

Edit: ... ok, that works.

[edit] Tags are not Variables

Bob the Hamster: I removed the article title Variables. It contained no information about variables, and only some confusing stuff about tags. If you want to learn about variables, read the existing FAQ article What is a variable?. I do think that the existing How to use NPCs and Tags article is not very good, and needs work-- possibly to be broken into separate articles about NPCs and Tags.

Yoshiboy: In what way? the NPC and Tags HOWTO seems ok to me.

[edit] Is this Possible?

QRS_III: Is it possible to make an attack that would wait until the enemy has chosen their attack, and then do something based on what it is?

Bob the Hamster: Nope. Sorry :(

[edit] Flash

James Paige: I wonder, is anybody feeling ambitious enough to try recording some flash movies demonstrating some of these HOWTOs?
