I'm not surprised you don't know about umkey (which stands for Universal Map KEY) – it hasn't been formatted for the new version. I don't think it could be. Still, it has some uses. You can read about it in the section on the old wiki, found here. I keep a copy of the code used in it on my user page.

I don't think that Pong will work (timing of p-plates isn't good at all), but here's the umkey version anyway:

Thanks Savok, that looks quite nice except for the arrow showing the bridge raise direction in the Pong one. :)

To copy from the newbie template, "When making comments on a talk page, if you are replying to a comment, use one more indent than the comment you are replying to. Since indents are created with :'s at the beginning of line, you'd use ::::: at the beginning if you were replying to a 4-indent comment. Put an empty line between comments by different people but not between different paragraphs of a comment." --Savok 17:54, 14 March 2008 (EDT)
