// Comment by Deus 13:22, 13 November 2005 (CET) I liked the former one more. I thought about some colorisation like red for readonly and green for r/w. maybe some mouseover stuff, or just the one tr light the next darker, to have a better viewability ? // End of Deus Comment

Alright, I'll restore the previous borders and add some colour. --Rookie One 04:33, 13 November 2005 (PST)

That was just my suggestion. Maybe this differs from banis view of beautification :) --Deus 04:46, 13 November 2005 (PST)

use of color...bad!

use of color to convey specific data (ro/rw) is bad. red/green is the worst possible choice too :)
consider someone who is colorblind. check the article via http://colorfilter.wickline.org/ to see how bad this is. but it looks bad even for those who aren't color blind :P

Yeah, reyalP, I also thought it's weird to initialize the table like that, but wasn't sure. ;) --Rookie One 06:26, 17 November 2005 (PST)

Question

Is there a article describing each fieldname?

No. To understand what they do, you need to look at the ET gamecode. Some Quake3 coding articles might also help you. It would be nice if someone documented some of the more common/interesting ones, but documenting them all would be a huge task. In the future, if you are looking for something, you can see all the pages in the wiki at Special:Allpages. If you have questions about specific fields, you can try asking on the ETPro modding forum Also, please sign your comments with ~~~~

I added descriptions of fields I *think* I know meaning of. Most times it's a wild guess based on my observations tho. Hope someone will correct my mistakes and add some more. -Major Zeman 02:28, 20 May 2007 (PDT)

making 'flags' writable

What about making the field flags read-write? I run a trickjump server and it would be very handy if I could give people the nofatigue flag so they never go out of stamina.

Maybe Nano's adrenaline.lua is a solution for you? (yeah I know responding to one year old commants again) -Major Zeman 09:44, 21 May 2007 (PDT)

ps.velocity

Any chance of getting ps.velocity field as R/W in some next etpro release? -Major Zeman 09:44, 21 May 2007 (PDT)

Yes, this will most likely be in the next release. The lua API talk page is the place to request features BTW. -15:13, 24 May 2007 (PDT)

Okay. Also thanks for putting that warning there - good idea. -Major Zeman 16:04, 24 May 2007 (PDT)
