I'm normally the guy who's suppose to automate these chart creation but with the new armor pen calculation, all the data I have mean nothing when the armor pen are calculated serverside (as far as I know, I havent found the new pen in the data mine yet). It's very strange, some shells follow the datamine while others dont at random. I really hope Gaijin reverts the new armor pen calculation or decides to release the reference penetration used to calculate the shell pen because Im stuck waiting. --[[User:U16697154|U16697154]] ([[User talk:U16697154|talk]]) 23:10, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

For example the economy: there is the template Specs-Economy, which then uses #unit:#var:me to get the data from. But I do not get how this exactly works and where that data is ultimately stored. My guess unit:var:me means that the unit is variable and the term "me" is refererring to the page name. |
| | | | |
| − | :: Will do, thanks. Process I'm using is to copy data from the current in-game information card for the ammo, and render that using Excel 365 and Scattergram ("X Y Scatter", Style #6. Chart is then pasted into Paint3D and saved as a PNG. Agree that maintenance will be difficult without access to an online source for that data as opposed to in-game (I don't have datamine access). The trouble with independent DeMarre as a method is it's calculated relative to a reference shell for which everything is known... ie it's always comparative. So without knowing their reference shell there's not much you can do. You would also need a reasonably accurate velocity estimate at each range bracket for each shell (so at minimum, agreed-upon ballistic coefficient numbers for each shell, as well). And you'd need to know their formula, as mentioned. Their use of a value for explosive shell filling variable and a ballistic cap modifier in the online calc means its not a "vanilla" DeMarre, for sure. The formula the online calculator they are using also starts to hit a limit of applicability <30mm shell diameter or so... probably because they are using a larger calibre (>100mm if I had to guess) as their DeMarre reference shell, and once you get down to 12-25mm that's going to start giving higher-than-historical results. Lastly it'd be great if Gaijin starts to populate the Wiki guns pages, so this could just be interim. I just like having the range break point to switch between shell types available to me, and since I'm doing it already nothing wrong with sharing. --[[User:U78418905|U78418905]] ([[User talk:U78418905|talk]]) 14:44, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
| + | I am considering making a side project for WT which would require getting all SL/RP/GE costs for all vehicles ... and typing that by hand is a bit much for ~ 2,000 vehicles, especially if one would have to redo this everytime Gaijin makes a major update or tweaks the economy. So I was wondering is there is here somewhere a comprehensive list of this, or at least if I would be able to compile one if I'd understand how this works. -- [[User:U50113119|U50113119]] ([[User talk:U50113119|talk]]) 20:27, 29 October 2022 (UTC) |

| | + | First of all, thanks for correcting and approving some of my edits, I'm fairly new and still need some practice. |
| | + | About the 2S38 hatches, you modified my edit from "18 mm + 20 mm" to "18 mm or 20 mm", which I think is incorrect; in the armor indicator you can see first an 18mm layer of anti-radiation liner, and then 20mm of ABT-102 alloy under it. |

| | + | : Greetings. Yes, you are correct about the 2S38 hatches. My mistake. One of my colleagues have made the corrections. Regarding the AMX-32 (105) edits, I believe it is simply a quirk of the wiki system if a user edits an older revision of the page. So the user may have unknowingly saved their edits onto an older page revision, which would have overridden the current page revision that your edit made. Otherwise from the looks of it, there does not appear to be anything inherently wrong with your edits. --[[User:U28580205|U28580205]] ([[User talk:U28580205|talk]]) 16:38, 29 January 2023 (UTC) |

I wish I'd found your "How to add Ammo Rack information to vehicle pages" page before now. It's hard to get started as an editor here. Documentation exists but is fragmented and inconsistent, and there's no real feedback on the edits. |
| | | | |

| − | I guess, it's possible to merge first two subsections into something of "direct fire launchers", but explaining, that they were used on different ranges, mostly close range for non-dedicated vehicles, and long range on dedicated launchers. Then "indirect fire launchers" and pretty much leave section as is, and then "hybrid tanks", just so it's less confusing. As for borderline fiction, well, i even mentioned myself, that i'm not sure whether to explain if from game perspective or common sence perspective, so i guess it happened to be neither.

| + | Greetings, Wiki senior Inceptor57. |
| − | Hey, Inceptor.
| |
| | | | |
| − | I found out that wikitext has the concept of no break space, which works as a usual space but doesn't separate the words that it is placed between if a new line is needed to be displayed. For example 250 mm in source code does this: 250 //mm OR 250// mm changed to //250 mm OR 250 mm// (not respectively), where double-slash is a new line. | + | I am writing to you to question about my created article and its probable approvement. Since your colleague Colok76286 have not answered to my request in his Discussion page, I have decided to write to Wiki senior, I mean you, directly just not to waste my time asking the same questions other moderators. |
| | + | Firstly, I would like to ask you about how mine article '[[Location Editor. Manual to create a location]]' suits for the WT Wiki since I do not know much about administrators' and moderators' treatment of such articles that are about something almost unknown and perhaps useless for the most of players. |
| | + | And secondly, if such free-style written article may suit, how long would it take to approve it? |
| | | | |

| − | == The distinction between Radars and other sensors ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Hi I just created a page for the tracking system used on the SIDAM 25 (the [[3JB10]]), seeing as it is not actually a radar it raises a couple of questions. For now I have just added it to the ground radar category, but is it better to make a new category called something like "sensors", with radars as a sub category of it? It seems likely we will get more systems which are not technically radars (i.e. the ADAD on the Stormer HVM coming next patch), so it might be worth doing for future-proofing. At the same time however I can see the argument for just leaving them all counted as radars for simplicity's sake. There are also two different Radar Warning Receivers (one for American and one for Russian helis) modelled in game, however at present they are modelled very basically and not worthy of separate articles. Maybe if the way Radar Warning Receivers work gets overhauled in the future (seems likely they will have to as the radar mechanic becomes more advanced and more aircraft with RWRs get added) they will be worthy of articles, in which case again a sensors category might make sense. Just wondering what your (and anyone else's) thoughts on the matter are?
| |
| − | : At the time, in terms of in-game practicality, I believe filing it under the "Radar" category would be most fitting of the 3JB10 at the current time being. However, should more of such systems of various types get modeled into the game, I can consider expanding these systems into its own category, with "radar" being a sub-category of that.--[[User:U28580205|U28580205]] ([[User talk:U28580205|talk]]) 07:22, 27 May 2019 (UTC) | |
| − | | |
| − | : As far as i know what sidam does is practically a lidar, but game treats it as a radar when doing warnings in AB anyway. For time being i just called them "rangefinder substitute" in the https://wiki.warthunder.com/SPAA_radars , because in vulcan case it's literally rangefinder+calculator slapped onto it. Also, when vulcan turned on it's radio tracker i got "radar" alerts as well. I'm pretty sure it's fine calling them "radars" per say, as game does too for now, at least until they release something more sophisticated, or mechanically different? IDK, if new sensors won't be able to track targets in exactly same way as well, it may require splitting the sections, otherwise i don't know really.
| |
| − | : As for warning system, take a look at the https://wiki.warthunder.com/Talk:SPAA_radars - i was wondering if RB alerts are same as in AB, for example if sidam really is invisible to enemy or not, and does it look the same in RB anyway. As for amount of them existing, as far as patch notes claim, the german top helicopter is supposed to have warning system as well (not the import soviet heli). I have no idea if its the same as the other 2 or not, though. If nothing, you can just take that piece of article, slap the names of detectors onto these helis in the list and just add it to the actual page somewhere in the end, to make it at least look properly. When/if they get overhauled - just make separate pages for them, as it will be easy to find which is which anyway by opening the list. But pardon me, i do not know which french helis have detection system at all. (Probably at least one does, but it wasn't mentioned anywhere) --[[User:U42773747|U42773747]] ([[User talk:U42773747|talk]]) 18:37, 26 May 2019 (UTC)

| − | | |
| − | :: Well, here we go - [[Update 1.89 "Imperial Navy"|patch notes]] specifically mentions new targeting mechanic - "passive optical systems". Of course, SIDAM is omitted as an old vehicle, so it may still have radar mechanics, but if you are right and SIDAM really is invisible in RB, then it may be paired up with Stormer HVM ADAD and Bradley ADATS in new category? Of cource, assuming it really works same way. It says, they only provide directional tracking or something like that. We will have to find out if it affects the fuses on normal ammunition or not, along with other things.
| |
| − | ::Also, with nerfs to radars, probably tables with them would now need some additional columns. First thing to be noticed is probably the "tracking error" they mentions, as they say now radar tracking accuracy depends on range away from target? They also mention "to increase probability of hit optical sight must be used", but if radar did set proximity fuse itself, won't ammo and missiles just explode themselves at wrong range anyway, even if your turret looks at the enemy? I feel like this is just too confusing and every SPAA will now have to be tested on practice... --[[User:U42773747|U42773747]] ([[User talk:U42773747|talk]]) 11:50, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

| − | | |
| − | ::: I'll admit as for being invisible to RWRs i was working on the belief that if other Passive systems were modelled correctly it was too (finding people with high tier Helis and Italian tanks unlocked to test this stuff is hard).
| |
| − | ::: As for the accuracy stuff, there are values specified however working out what they mean (other than a blind guess) will take quite a bit of trial and error testing.

| − | :::: Well, i'm sure you already have some SPAA, but here is [[Media:Stormer_HMV_passive_system_lock_on.jpg|Stormer lock-on screenshot]], if that helps you. It is super awkward to aim, as you have to aim yourself, using enemy speed to aim. I wish i had SPAA with guns that has this system, so i could say for sure, that it's how it works and there arent aiming reticle just because of that. But at least you can tell it is a passive system by replaced "power" icon by letters, though i'm not sure if it's just not a name for scanning mode (the camera that spins around wildly) and SIDAM will have same name. --[[User:U42773747|U42773747]] ([[User talk:U42773747|talk]]) 18:02, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

| − | ::: One animated file per page would be a reasonable amount to allow their existence without them spamming up a page. There is no need for you to handle uncategorized images at this time. --[[User:U28580205|U28580205]] ([[User talk:U28580205|talk]]) 13:15, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

| |
| − | :::: Well, i do understand that it's not that necessary, it's just that with the mass uploads i kind of increase amount of work someone else has to do (probably, yourself), if i don't drop the category tag there. I'll leave the 4 category tags i know near to upload link on my own page, just add more there if there are any, will see how it goes from there. If i'll have free time i'll just open the global image pool and check them to spend time. --[[User:U42773747|U42773747]] ([[User talk:U42773747|talk]]) 13:26, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

I have some screenshots which only make sense together, but on last one I have "dead alive" hull break bug (when 120 mm kinetic hullbreak fails, you look dead, even on UI, but are not really).

Ozelot's BR should be 9.3 (RB)
Hello,
I do not know how to edit the specs card. Maybe you could help me out by editing the specs or telling me how to do it? The Ozelot's BR for realistic battles has changed from 9.0 to 9.3 recently (along the Wiesel 1A2). --fraggable (talk) 16:44, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hello. The spec cards are uneditable. Battle ratings will be automatically updated shortly. Please be patient as it may take a few days to roll out. --Inceptor57 (talk) 13:05, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing this up and have a great rest of your day/night.

Economy stats
Hello,
I've got a question about vehicle stats (be it price or economy): where does the wiki get the data from? For example the economy: there is the template Specs-Economy, which then uses #unit:#var:me to get the data from. But I do not get how this exactly works and where that data is ultimately stored. My guess unit:var:me means that the unit is variable and the term "me" is refererring to the page name.
I am considering making a side project for WT which would require getting all SL/RP/GE costs for all vehicles ... and typing that by hand is a bit much for ~ 2,000 vehicles, especially if one would have to redo this everytime Gaijin makes a major update or tweaks the economy. So I was wondering is there is here somewhere a comprehensive list of this, or at least if I would be able to compile one if I'd understand how this works. -- Kan0nenfutter (talk) 20:27, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
About the 2S38 hatches & question
Hello !
First of all, thanks for correcting and approving some of my edits, I'm fairly new and still need some practice.
About the 2S38 hatches, you modified my edit from "18 mm + 20 mm" to "18 mm or 20 mm", which I think is incorrect; in the armor indicator you can see first an 18mm layer of anti-radiation liner, and then 20mm of ABT-102 alloy under it.
Also, a user by the name of Larsofd completely deleted the edits I had made on the AMX-32 (105), concerning it's armour and machine guns. Did I do something wrong ? By looking at it's contributions, it's the only one he has ever made, so could you look into it please?
Thanks. -- T_rexflameche (talk) 19:30, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- Greetings. Yes, you are correct about the 2S38 hatches. My mistake. One of my colleagues have made the corrections. Regarding the AMX-32 (105) edits, I believe it is simply a quirk of the wiki system if a user edits an older revision of the page. So the user may have unknowingly saved their edits onto an older page revision, which would have overridden the current page revision that your edit made. Otherwise from the looks of it, there does not appear to be anything inherently wrong with your edits. --Inceptor57 (talk) 16:38, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
Ammo Layouts
Hi there. I wish I'd found your "How to add Ammo Rack information to vehicle pages" page before now. It's hard to get started as an editor here. Documentation exists but is fragmented and inconsistent, and there's no real feedback on the edits.
I've now added ammo info for two vehicles, the SARC Mk IV and the Turán I. You mention that the ammo rack images should be categorized, but I'm not quite clear on how to do that in the editor.
Actually it seems that I didn't read far enough. "Upload Summary" seems to be the correct answer. I'll keep that in mind in the future.

Ammo Guide and beyond
Hi Inceptor57,
I wanted to tell you that the guide "How to add Ammo Rack information to vehicle pages" has been very useful for beginner editors and I would find it great if there were more like it, to fill the Help category, for example to make a guide on "How to add Armour information to vehicle pages".
I've had a look at the "root" pages like the Wiki Map, the special pages and the Help category and I think they should be better identified as the most important pages in the Wiki for new editors, pages that lead to other important pages.
In short, there should be something like a Starter Pack for new editors that would be like the Help category, leading to all the information about how Templates work, standards, etc.
Thank you for your work, and I hope that the Wiki can develop to be even more useful to new readers.

Approvement of non-standard article (not vehicle's passport, historical article, etc.)
Greetings, Wiki senior Inceptor57.
I am writing to you to question about my created article and its probable approvement. Since your colleague Colok76286 have not answered to my request in his Discussion page, I have decided to write to Wiki senior, I mean you, directly just not to waste my time asking the same questions other moderators.
Firstly, I would like to ask you about how mine article 'Location Editor. Manual to create a location' suits for the WT Wiki since I do not know much about administrators' and moderators' treatment of such articles that are about something almost unknown and perhaps useless for the most of players.
And secondly, if such free-style written article may suit, how long would it take to approve it?
I am looking forward to cooperate with you.
--Takaram1A (talk) 14:08, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Greetings. That article seems within the scope of our War Thunder CDK section and pages. --Inceptor57 (talk) 21:07, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
