Modding notes
- Token is catch all name for everything inside brackets
- Token pages
- Most document how to define new objects of that type.
- Some document how to reference objects and list their default parameters e.g. Material_token and Item_token
- Article naming is inconsistent
- Some Token objects aren't covered or aren't tagged as such e.g. Caste.
- Documentation
- Our syntax is sometimes unclear to the uninitiated e.g. Creature token wth is caste TYPE how it differs from creature type of special?
- Our syntax is sometimes inconsistent.
- Some object names seems inconsistent as far as I understand their use here.
[OBJECT:CREATURE] [CREATURE:<identifier>] Don't match [OBJECT:DESCRIPTOR_COLOR] - match article name, never used [COLOR:<identifier>] - what is used everwhere that I seen. [OBJECT:DESCRIPTOR_PATTERN] [COLOR_PATTERN:<identifier>] [OBJECT:DESCRIPTOR_SHAPE] [SHAPE:<identifier>]
