Adding a new OBSE function to the wiki really just needs some cut and paste.
- Bring up 3 web tabs
- OBSE command documentation
- An already added v14 function (i.e., CanCorpseCheck) - try to use one that's in the same function type category as the new function
- The new page - you can get to the new page by copying the link for the v14 function (i.e., http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/CanCorpseCheck), and replacing the old function name with the new function name (i.e., http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/SetCorpseCheck)
- Edit both function pages by pressing the Edit button above the dialog box
- Copy everything (Ctrl-A followed by Ctrl-C) from the old function page and paste it on the new function page.
- Find the new function in the OBSE commmand documentation such as
SetCanCorpseCheck* - changes the Can Corpse Check flag on the actor (nothing) reference.SetCanCorpseCheck flag:short actor:ref - Copy the new definition over the old definition on the new wiki page. That is, replace Returns 1 if the Can Corpse Check flag is set on the actor. with Changes the Can Corpse Check flag on the actor.
- Replace the old function with the new function - replace (canCoprseCheck:bool) ''reference''.CanCorpseCheck ''actor:ref'' with (nothing) reference.SetCanCorpseCheck flag:short actor:ref
- If there are any italics, make sure to add them to the wiki page with a pair of single quotes (i.e., ''reference'')
- You can add an example if you'd like. Place it after the function.
- Include any notes by adding this after the syntax (and example if you added it) ==Notes== *Can call on either the specific actor or the base object ID of the actor.
- Change the See Also links to similar functions. The OBSE command documentation is the best guide for this - similar functions are usually grouped together. Make sure you use a * before each link.
- If there aren't any similar functions, just delete the section
- Place the function in the correct categories. At the bottom of the page you'll see something like
'''Example''' if Jauffre.CanCorpseCheck
[[Category: Functions]] [[Category: Functions (OBSE)]] [[Category: Functions (OBSE v0014)]] [[Category: Actor Value Functions]] [[Category: Actor Value Functions (OBSE)]]
Change the bottom 2 categories to the appropriate category (and its OBSE counterpart). Here's a list of categories. Don't hesitate to add new categories, we could use a few more at this point.
