((I did that manually.))

I can believe that. An algorithm doesn't have to be performed by a machine to be an algorithm.

Made a very simple template for the Armoury page that you can use to navigate more easily and link to specific parts of it. That means that you can link to items that do not have a page. It also means that all items are forced to have a uniform look that you can easily change by editing the template.

You can see the demonstration here.

Any objections or should I transfer it to the main Armoury page?
Ohh, how'd you do that? Could that sort of thing be applied to the chracter index to link to the sections for individual missions? I found you can't put a title heading in the middle of a table, so it's all one big thing right now.

So how does one talk in binary? Do they say One One Zero, etc? Do they say beep beep boop? Do they make dial up or R2-D2 noises with their mouth?
I'm imagining him opening his mouth, and nothing but white noise comes out.

....((can someone post translations please?))
Code: [Select]
>>> x = lambda s: ''.join([chr(int(s[i:i+8],2)) for i in range(0,len(s),8)])
>>> x("0101011101101000011001010111001001100101001000000110000101101101001000000100100100111111")
'Where am I?'
>>> x("01011010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001101111011011100110010100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001101111011011100110010100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001101111011011100110010100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001101111011011100110010100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000110111101101110011001010010000001101111011011100110010100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001101111011011100110010100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000110111101101110011001010010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001101111011011100110010100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001101111011011100110010100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001101111011011100110010100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000111101001100101011100100110111100100000011011110110111001100101001000000110111101101110011001010010000001101111011011100110010100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001101111011011100110010100100000011110100110010101110010011011110010000001111010011001010111001001101111")

Made a very simple template for the Armoury page that you can use to navigate more easily and link to specific parts of it. That means that you can link to items that do not have a page. It also means that all items are forced to have a uniform look that you can easily change by editing the template.

You can see the demonstration here.

Any objections or should I transfer it to the main Armoury page?
Ohh, how'd you do that? Could that sort of thing be applied to the chracter index to link to the sections for individual missions? I found you can't put a title heading in the middle of a table, so it's all one big thing right now.
I'd suggest just breaking up the table into multiple tables so that the links will appear in the table of contents.

However, if you insist on a single array, then what my template is using is this:
Code: [Select]
<span id="AnchorTop">TOP</span>This will create an anchor point you can link to with [[Pagename#AnchorTop|Link Name]] that will bring you to that text.

You could create a template of your own if you want. Just create a page named "Template:CHIL" and write something like this in it:
Code: [Select]
<span id="{{{2|{{{1}}}}}}">{{#ifexist: {{{1}}} | [[{{{1}}}|{{{2|{{{1}}}}}}]] | {{{2|{{{1}}}}}} }}</span>So now, if you write {{CHIL|Mission 1|YMSSN}} you'll get a link to Mission 1 with the title YMSSN that you can link to by using [[Pagename#YMSSN]].
But if you write {{CHIL|Mission 1}} you'll get a link to Mission 1 with the title Mission 1 that you can link to by using [[Pagename#Mission_1]]
And if you write {{CHIL|NonexistentPage}} you'll just get the text NonexistentPage that you can link to by using [[Pagename#NonexistentPage]]

You can modify the template to do other things as well, e.g., automatically bold the text, like this:
Code: [Select]
<b><span id="{{{2|{{{1}}}}}}">{{#ifexist: {{{1}}} | [[{{{1}}}|{{{2|{{{1}}}}}}]] | {{{2|{{{1}}}}}} }}</span></b>

Steve coming along is hilarity potential.  I think, however, you're missing the obvious reason; we clearly need babysitters.
How'd he have babysat M15?

Seems a little strange for Steve to care this much, though. Especially considering the language barrier isn't even all that pronounced, apparently. He's up to something, I tell you. Something nefarious as usual, no doubt.

She'll get used to it eventually, but this is her first time she's been exposed to this type of stuff, and she's the lone sixteen year old female surrounded by naked dudes. At least she always has some handy emasculating remarks lying around.

When the characters get in/out of stasis in the Sword before or after a "jump" they see each other naked all the time, which is by now there's little in the way of modesty left for people like Milno. Everyone who has survived some missions and isn't in a robo/synth-flesh body is probably either inured to it by now or was extremely modest to start with.

Yeah, I recall her wanting to get clothes on pretty fast after waking up when she realizing that there were other people on the Sword. And it's not just that she's not used to people being naked, she's been to prison after all, but it's also that they're all men, some of them quite a bit older than her. If I was employed in some sort of job that had me fully changing clothes in a group consisting of only older women, I'd be pretty nervous and squeamish about it.

I think the problem when i tried that was that all the tables got sized independently, so the columns were in different places and it made scanning up and down really difficult.

My theory: there never was any other interpreter to begin with. Steve suspects that this 'Eater of Cold' might be an old friend of his, by which I mean another legacy abomination from an earlier age, which he might be the only one able to communicate with - or which he does not want anyone else at all to communicate with.
So, in a way, he is the guide/interpreter you were promised, yet in a totally different way than it was expected.

You could define a width ratio, like I did for the Nyars tables. Say that each column is 25% of the screen width for example. I can do it myself once I get back to my PC.

I like how everyone has theories about Steve's presence but not one person cares that he basically said we're going to be checking up on war crimes we're responsible for/are going to commit.
