Talk:Equipment slot

TODO: I'm not that experienced with image editing, but it might be handy to get a screen shot of the character slots in the inventory screen, label them, and put them on this article's page so people can see the various types of things they can work with when outfitting their characters. I'll try to do this tonight. Dedridd 09:54, February 10, 2006 (PST)

Added to article as a TODO - please use this feature in the future instead of talk pages, thanks. (post by Peerless - see his talk and contribs.) 10:30, February 10, 2006 (PST)
OK, will do. I had no idea there was such thing as a 'task' tag. Sweet! Dedridd 10:48, February 10, 2006 (PST)
Yet another gift from the great Xevo in the sky. (post by Peerless - see his talk and contribs.) 10:50, February 10, 2006 (PST)
Picture uploaded. However, the image won't show up. I noticed that the Bruku page no longer displays the picture, either. Did images stop working for some reason, or am I doing something wrong? Dedridd 21:12, February 10, 2006 (PST)
Not your error, mine. I'll fix as soon as I get a chance, which is not now. May have to wait a bit, sorry. Don't try to upload anything in the meantime. (post by Peerless - see his talk and contribs.) 21:51, February 10, 2006 (PST)
Don't stress over it, I'm not in a hurry. I'll polish it into shape whenever you get the chance to iron things out. I'm sure I can find something else to work on. :) Dedridd 08:45, February 11, 2006 (PST)

Image[edit]

The image on this page used to show up, but now it's broken. Can it be fixed, or will I be forced to upload another copy if I can find it? Dedridd 15:04, March 7, 2006 (EST)

Old images before the file symlinking and merger are loooong gone. Sorry )-: (post by Peerless - see his talk and contribs.)

Category[edit]

I put it in the items category, for lack of a better category to put it in. If any of you guys have a better idea, feel free to chime in. --Borror0 19:30, February 8, 2010 (EST)

Slot Numbering?[edit]

Is there something significant about how the slots are numbered on this page? Rings are #'s 7 & 15, Quiver is #16 but ammo is #3 - seems rather... random, to me, awkward and hard to follow, at least at first. I'd like to renumber them (txt and image, easy enough), but wanted to make sure there's nothing I'm not seeing that wants to keep the numbering "as is".

  • I don't think there is. Maybe one of these:
    1. Start with 1 as eyewear and go clockwise, then 13-16 (L to R) for weapons/ammo, and 17+ for cosmetics
    2. Start with 1 as headwear and number left to right, top to bottom
    3. Start with 1 as eyewear and number left to right, top to bottom
    Thoughts? — Zav(T·C) 20:38, February 16, 2016 (EST)
  • Mirrors my thoughts. I just didn't want to screw up like I did putting Enhancements into a "sensible order". ;) I'll give it while in case anyone else has input, no rush.C-Hound (ContribsMessage) 20:57, February 16, 2016 (EST)
  • No, no, no, no... If you are going to redo it, don't number them at all. Indicate what is what using the icons, I'd also turn it into an imagemap with each slot being a link to an appropriate page/section about that slot. ShoeMaker (ContribsMessage) 21:06, February 16, 2016 (EST)

Why no numbers? Strong visual aid. I LIKE the idea of an image map - can do. But which "the icons" are you referring to using? Grab some random item thumbs and fit? C-Hound (ContribsMessage) 21:15, February 16, 2016 (EST)

  • I would say use the images here plus F:ArmorIcon Fullplate.jpg, F:WpnIcon BattleAxe01.jpg, and F:ShieldIcon HeavyIron.jpg. That should leave you with just icons for the cosmetics needed. — Zav(T·C) 01:59, February 17, 2016 (EST)
    • I don't really like the new numbering. If anything, it seems awkward on the top and bottom rows. I actually prefer the first version you uploaded better; it seems more natural. That all said, I do prefer the concept of numbers over icons, though I haven't seen a version that has icons yet. Habreno (ContribsMessage) 17:31, February 25, 2016 (EST)
      • I really dislike numbers... I will see if I can do the icon/imagemap version this weekend. ShoeMaker (ContribsMessage) 17:39, February 25, 2016 (EST)
