Hey I started to update the wiki, but I'm a vavoom novice and I need help ! I modified this section first: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.vavoom-engine.com/wiki/index.php?title=Editing#Making_a_MOD">http://www.vavoom-engine.com/wiki/index ... king_a_MOD</a><!-- m -->. Also see the discussion page. I'm very impressed with things that can be done with VavoomC, but it really lacks documentation. There are few code comments, there's pretty much no function/class reference, I feel bind. To understand one function I often need to hunt down implementation of several functions in several separate files. If you could point me to something that's relatively easy and needs documentation, I could start there. Something like default fields of actors, monsters. My primary interest is modding and VavoomC.

There are some files that have "common" methods used by most classes, like Actor.MonsterAi (which contains most functions for looking for player/monster enemies) and EntityEx.AiUtils which contains most methods for checking for enemies in range for attacks, but also things to track players/monster enemies down. EntityEx.Head has most o the flags available for objects in-game and some descriptions of what they do <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->, hope this helps you out.

I have started to write VavoomC documentation on Wiki a long time ago, but actually all I did is making a page template to describe Vavoom class and overviewing 2 or 3 base classes... Ok, here's list of pages I created: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.vavoom-engine.com/wiki/index.php?title=VavoomC_Static_Function_Reference">http://www.vavoom-engine.com/wiki/index ... _Reference</a><!-- m --> <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.vavoom-engine.com/wiki/index.php?title=VavoomC_Class_Reference">http://www.vavoom-engine.com/wiki/index ... _Reference</a><!-- m --> But info there can be outdated, as stated they were written for Vavoom 1.28.

In my vision, we have some options regarding the Wiki, we move the wiki somewhere else where some administration tasks are "out of our hands", so that development won't get hit by the time used to do them (i.e. SF.net), or we get a wiki software

Today in disgust i created a wiki account just to fix the main wiki page that had been defaced by bots. Then i found they had also injected ads into the command line args wiki page, cleaned that. Finally I deleted the contents of spam-created pages with m
