Map Objects

The reasons/considerations on making separate pages for every object:

• Add "goodsValue"/"value"/other parameters to a fancy infobox;
• Add a size/floorplan of an object;
• Add an ID and their "object_logic" filename (and may be all associated files?);
• Make notes on what is hardcoded and/or what is tweakable in the "object_logic";
• Add 3d and 2d depiction of an object;
  • Minimap/magic vision depiction?
• Add an interior screenshot for creature banks, an interface screenshot for those which have it;
• Make notes on changes/patchnote history for an object;
• List maps/templates/modes which allows/does not allow an object;
• Make notes on object general placements (e.g. "wood mines usually are placed near towns, often unguarded");
• Add categories, not only about "object type" ("Mines", "Creature banks", "Dwellings", etc.), but also consider other categorizations: "Aquatic objects", "Underground objects", "Off-site buildings", "Campaign Objects", etc.;
• Mention gameplay tactics?
• (Unlikely will be suitable, but may be...) Lore/cultural references?
• (...obviously, add everything that already presented in the main article: lore description, gameplay description.)
• Check all visual changes between Demo and Release.
  • Especially those with placeholder models: Town gate, Pixie tower, Dragon Crag, Abandoned Tower, Unicorn Vale, Dragonhunter Base, Starshard, Sundew Thicket, Battlefield.
  • Windmill [1], University ([2], [3])
    • Alchemy lab got changed pre-Demo: File:Alchemy_lab.png
    • Pocket Dimension, Portal Exit?
  • Dragonhunter Base was renamed to Dragoslayer Base.
  • Alvar outpost was different in the #content-reveal post. [4]
  • And Village Hut [5]
• Add weekly growth and guards into the table for dwellings. Add links.
• Market mechanics goes to Market page and market on town pages just refer to that page.

Factions

• Do we separate Factions from their Cities? What could actually be added to a faction's page that cannot be added to a town's page?
  • Laws? Lore? Heroes? Campaign? Off-site objects? Terrain?
    • How long it would be if all this will be added to the one page in the form of small sections with {{main}} templates? Considering that the "city" part will be described in detail?
• What we should add to a City page?
  • City screen (empty/full), buildings (pictures + descriptions), creatures (only a list with their weekly growth), depiction as a map object, possible magic spells, city's special building mechanic...

• Map editor?
• Modding?
