YAML

Does Stellaris not use YAML 1.1? Having the Merge Key working would make modding the main interface a whole lot easier. Being able to insert localisation lines rather than having to overwrite the entire l_language.yml file...or am I missing a trick here? -EtoileLion (talk) 13:57, 10 May 2016 (CEST)

Hi I'm having a problem. I created a mod and it appears in the launcher but my prescripted country does not appear in game. Can you please help me? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.98.163.47 (Talk) 13:52, 15 May 2016 (CEST)

I think it is better if you ask question in the Stellaris forum or even better the user mods subforum. – Lillebror (talk) 19:29, 15 May 2016 (CEST)

Hub

Do we have somewhere to organize guides or references to the internal organization? I don't want to clutter up this page with references that it doesn't already have a place for, but it seems like something that needs a hub. --InfiniteGremlin (talk) 18:45, 20 May 2016 (CEST)

Ideally, this page should be the hub, and the specifics moved to other pages. ~ Meneth (talk) 11:21, 21 May 2016 (CEST)

Guidelines

• Use UTF-8 with BOM for localisation files.

UTF-8 with BOM is nonsensical. There is only one possible byte order in UTF-8; a BOM is spurious. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.178.209.134 (talk) 22:00, 3 November 2016‎ (CET)

That may be, but it won't work if you don't.

Atom recommendation appropriateness

With the recommendation to use UTF-8 BOM my understanding is that Atom does not support this https://github.com/atom/encoding-selector/issues/18

While it is an otherwise good text editor, is it appropriate to recommend an editor that cannot produce the suggested output earlier in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Systemchalk (talk) 02:31, 17 January 2018‎ (CET)

I've checked through and I agree. It has been removed for now. Dauth (talk) 10:50, 17 January 2018 (CET)

Suggest "Last verified for" column in overwrite section

Since the procedure for overwriting specific elements is known to change by version and is highly piecemeal, I suggest that a column be added to the table for "Last verified for". That way, individual categories can be updated bit-by-bit as they come up while modding, even without the entire table being verified all at once, and problematically-out-of-date information can be more easily noticed and thus checked.

Intrigue Mods

Anyone know where intrigue focused mods should go? their event structure is similar to archeology but they tie into diplomacy pretty heavily. --101.53.218.136 05:59, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
