Talk: List of Units in G Generation World

Grid view

So you wanted to convert these unit lists into grids, right? Did you want to do it along the same lines as the JP wiki? I can whip up a template for it that looks something like this if so:

Icon	Name	Cost	HP	whatever	etc	blah	ok
File:SpiritsTile ZakuI.png	Gundam	99999	12345	xxx	:P	10	11

Yeah, you've got the gist of it but I think it might be easier and look a little better to wait until all or most of the icons are uploaded. ~ Yuu (talk) 00:04, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

True, otherwise we might have a giant list with tons of broken image links. ~ Darkslime (talk) 01:17, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Confirmed unit details

I'm keeping a list here of the stuff that I've confirmed in-game. As you can probably see, there were in fact a few errors on the JP wiki - I noted them in the talk pages for those units, though I'm not sure if that's necessary. ~ Darkslime (talk) 23:18, September 6, 2012 (UTC)

• Mobile Suit Gundam (Everything confirmed except experience values)
• Mobile Suit Gundam 08th MS Team (Everything confirmed)

Yeah, no need to list errors on other wikis. What information they have is not really relevant here. :P ~ Yuu (talk) 00:22, September 7, 2012 (UTC)

Working prototype

I've whipped up a working prototype of a possible unit list display.

	Name	Cost	Exp	Size	HP	EN	ATK	DEF	MOB	MOV	SP.	AIR	GR.	WA.	UW.
	Gundam	19100	430	M	12000	100	22	22	21	6	B	-	B	-	B
	Guncannon	16300	370	M	9420	90	17	23	17	5	B	-	B	-	D
	Guntank	15100	290	M	9200	90	17	17	13	5	C	-	A	-	-
	Core Fighter	10300	235	S	7260	40	10	9	15	8	B	A	-	-	-
	Core Booster	14900	340	S	8880	75	18	15	19	8	A	A	-	-	-

The problem I was having was that the "UNDERWATER" was just way too long - the table was going off the page, so I opted to abbreviate the terrain column names in order to save space. In either case, tell me what you think. ~ Darkslime (talk) 17:05, September 20, 2012 (UTC)

That's basically it.

• It's going to need a way for transformations to display similarly to how they do on the unit pages with combined cells. I don't know if this is very practical with a template, though.
• I'd like some way to indicate NPC and/or absent from gallery.

Everything else is just a minor style detail, I'll just wait until you get a finalized version before addressing that. ~ Yuu (talk) 20:03, September 20, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, so I spent some time making it able to do those column combine things. First, they need to all be in the same template, and second, for a stat that is the same as the one above it, use an X in the field. Example:

	Name	Cost	Exp	Size	HP	EN	ATK	DEF	MOB	MOV	SP.	AIR	GR.	WA.	UW.
	Impulse Gundam	35000	625	M	14140	150	27	26	27	7	B	-	B	-	C
	Impulse Gundam (Separate)				14140	150	27	26	29	9	A	B	-	-	-
	Force Impulse Gundam				14140	150	27	26	29	8	B	-	B	-	C
	Blast Impulse Gundam				14140	150	30	25	25	7	B	-	B	B	C
	SwordImpulseGundam_Tile.png				14140	150	28	27	25	7	B	-	B	-	C

Check out Template:UnitListSpirits for a better idea. I'm not sure how to indicate npc/absent from gallery though. Did you have any ideason what you wanted that to look like? Maybe we can make the link to the unit page grey or something. ~ Darkslime (talk) 21:36, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

...aaaand I just realized that V Gundam could use six rows(though it's the only one). It's probably going to be a very long time before I will be able to dredge up the willpower to add in a sixth possible row, just telling you now ;_; ~ Darkslime (talk) 21:47, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

I think you might be overcomplicating it. The cost/EXP/size should be combined but it's not really necessary for the rest of the stats to. It looks really chaotic and hard to make sense of like that.

If you want to do it like this then it would be immensely easier to maintain. I just copied what the jp wikis have been doing. I'd also be able to put in a sixth row more easily for stupid V Gundam ~ Darkslime (talk) 14:48, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

See how much better it looks already? I think this is fine. ~ Yuu (talk) 20:25, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

For Hidden/NPC I'm not sure how to approach it. Maybe hidden units can have their icon darkened while NPCs can have a red border around it or something. Yuu (talk) 02:15, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

How does this look? I can't darken icons (or do anything to the actual picture except resize it) so I opted for borders either way - gray for NPC and red for hidden. ~ Darkslime (talk) 15:41, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

	Name	Cost	Exp	Size	HP	EN	ATK	DEF	MOB	MOV	SP.	AIR	GR.	WA.	UW.
	Death Ball	-	-	M	15000	45	30	30	10	5	A	A	-	-	-
	Dummy Balloon	-	-	M	5000	15	5	5	4	0	A	-	A	-	-

Looks pretty good, but I'd like you to check the icons of the basic units just to make sure that's it's not too hard to distinguish between them and a NPC unit because if I'm not mistaken they have a red border within the image itself. ~ Yuu (talk) 20:25, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

The basic unit border appears to be only a 1-pixel border on the top and left, and looks like a multiply layer, so it's fairly transparent. There won't be any problem distinguishing them, I think. ~ Darkslime (talk) 21:44, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

Then this should be fine. ~ Yuu (talk) 00:05, October 5, 2012 (UTC)
