Wiki Template Updates

In order to make the templates more flexible the following changes are being considered/done.

  • Add vanilla block images to Template:Grid/Available_images
  • Add vanilla item images to Template:Grid/Available_images>
  • Add BTW block images to Template:Grid/Available_images
  • Add BTW item images to Template:Grid/Available_images
  • Create Template:Grid/Anvil. Should be simple. Just replace output arrow to have Anvil icon included.
  • Create Template:Grid/Cauldron. Perhaps best to keep this to a 3x3 image and replace the output arrow with a flame icon. I know of no cauldron recipe that uses more than 9 ingredients despite it having 27 slots.
    • Possible images. Thoughts? Also, we could jsut swap the arrow for just the fire image. PatrickSJ 07:06, 21 December 2011 (MST)
    • Regular Fire Grid Example Layout Cauldron.png Grid Example Layout Crucible.png
    • Stoked Alternative Grid Example Layout Anvil.png Grid Example Layout Cauldron Stoked copy.png
