Should this page be locked (and the Client Function Dump), since the page is generated by a script? Andyvincent 16:41, 30 November 2006 (GMT Standard Time)

TOC

• Is is possible to have a two-column table of contents? One side Libraries, the other Objects? Andyvincent 09:49, 4 December 2006 (GMT Standard Time)

Parameter Lists

Some people started adding parameter lists for functions to the page. I removed them. Here's why:

• The specific pages documenting these functions have more detailed information, which is more likely to stay up to date. If the functions later change, we won't have to modify two pages.
• The way in which the lists are formatted is not descriptive. Types are provided for some, but not for others, and in some cases, the variable name alone is not sufficient in describing what the argument is used for, or how it needs to be supplied.
• The page is already quite long, and it is probably better to keep it clean and simple, so people can find what they're looking for quickly.

Rather than just removing them, I first posted this here, incase anyone doesn't agree, or was wondering why I removed thier contribution. Merlzoth 08:24, 1 December 2006 (GMT Standard Time)

Icons

Why were the icons reverted back to the old, ugly ones? Those things make my eye twitch whenever I see them. --Joudoki 13:23, 1 December 2006 (GMT Standard Time)

Stay Updated

The function list needs to be updated. Functions that are added in patches is missing. And since the page is locked, I'm whining here instead of doing something about it. -- Robbis_1 18:49, 24 April 2007 (GMT+1)

Well it's now two years later and nothing changed. -- Joerdgs 14:30, 14 August 2009 (GMT+1)

I've updated this twice already. Also, this is just a dump, it does not need to be kept up-to-date on real-time basis. --Unrealomega 11:56, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Many functions here are marked Server while they really are Shared. This is a bit confusing and it's annoying that you have to check the client dump each time to make sure.

Ask the game, not us. Game engine made this dump. SiPlus 15:09, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
