Some notes I want to keep.

New page

This page outlines some general knowledge collected over the years. Mostly this is my notes.

= Really, Really Big things =
* TEST WITH LOCAL ZK-TEST.SDZ!!!! REALLY.
* Do NOT test cawidgets with local replacement.
* Multiplayer tests can be done by uploading an sdz to maps on site

= Cawidgets =
* DO NOT USE SPEED UPS HERE. I don't know why exactly, but GoogleFrog says it's bad and it tends to lead to bad things.
* Probably not good to use speedups anywhere in the top level dir of luaui or luarules. Idk.
* You can make derivatives of other callins with it. Useful!
* Alters the way widgets work.

= Callins.lua =
* This file is a red herring. Nobody probably knows what it does.

= Camain.lua =
* Who knows what it does.

= Cache.lua =
* You can poison (see: changing the return values) of functions with this. This changes affects everything.
* Don't attempt to override names with it. This just leads to people losing the ability to chat -.-

= Unitdefs =
* These have a different style for... reasons.
* Double space instead of tab.

= Git =
* Don't use PR's to update your fork.
* Use git rebasing to update work.
* Use git rebase -i HEAD~# to squash stuff.
* Squash your commits down a bit for redundant things (but not ones that significantly alter things)

= Callins =
* Update uses FPS to trigger, and GameFrame does not.
