i think mechs wouldnt only be for fighting
they are also great for big mining or wood cutting with a single punch
we also discussed they might be used to carry items and farm

but you can do more in the vehicle section
what about our zepplin like thing
and the fighters and the dreadnaughts

I suggest you not to write entries in the wiki yet. With such sketchy idea at best about what we gonna do it's pointless at this point plus it's one big mess already with loads of articles that we cannot classify as "cannon" or "non-cannon". I myself believe that having a page for every player made faction will be a catastrophic mess due to the difficulty in monitoring and maintaining it. I doubt that a guy who closes his faction would bother to delete its page, I believe there will be many flying pony stuff that ruins immersion, overall inconsistencies with the fully "cannon" story that will confuse people ...

Agreed, though this thread really has nothing to do with factions or community lore.

No, he means that he would like to shoot the story out of a cannon :/

These wiki articles are just for me to get an idea for what needs implementing. ofc I would like to do it in very few items, but have those be custom and nameable, and maybe even have more sprites. I don't know.

Nah, you're the ideas guy, ideas which are usually about game mechanics rather than content.

As I've said numerous times, Joykler's job is supposed to be locating discussion and debate threads and organizing them into something coherent. Anything beyond that, including voting on which ideas have the most merit, is extraneous and is being done in an unofficial capacity.

I said nothing contradicting that.
