Source Code Questions

Post by Pictish20 » 18 Aug 2017, 11:02

Hello, all. I am wondering how the source code such as /b (I left the brackets off so it won't affect this post) and all that work on these forms, as well as in-game. If someone can give me an explanation/a list of all of those snippet-things, I would be much obliged.

9/19 Wins per rounds ratio as Commander
I also play as the synthetic named Lucien, and I am an ex-mentor.

I think the devs don't let the source code open for mere mortals

I just wish to able to write better looking works on the forums, and better looking Faxes and the like. Not anything crazy. Perhaps I worded that wrong. Not source code, but, Nevermind. I believe I have figured it out.

Are you referring to the "writing" system in game and BBcode?

Yes, that's it. But I think I've found out how to do it. Thanks for the help, though.

Writing stuff on paper in-game is just regular HTML. The forums use BB code. You can look up tutorials for both to see different formatting options.
