Add a science report
Adding a new science report is fairly simple, and there are two ways to do so. For each of them you should first:
-
Decide how to word your science report. This is important, as the exact text you choose will be used in the game.
NOTE: Science reports are limited to 300 characters, including spaces. -
Decide the specific biome/experiment/situation combination that you would like your report to be utilized in. A helpful list of eID tags and their available combinations can be found here.
Please use this method only if you want to add a report or two. For more extensive additions please use the second method listed below.
- Open a new issue with the main repo and we'll insert it for you.
- Thank the moderator, the repository manager, and the Git mascot Octocat for doing your work for you ;)
Please be aware that we need to know where you intend your science report to be utilized in-game. For this reason you must include the following information when submitting additions by this method:
-
The planet that your report applies to.
-
The biome that your report applies to.
-
The eID/experiment that your report applies to.
-
The situation that your report applies to (ex: landed, flying, in space).
-
And of course, the text of your science report.
-
Fork and clone the main repo. Details on how to do so were covered here.
-
Navigate to the appropriate file you wish to add your report to using the handy planet/biome/eID.cfg directory structure that harryyoung set up.
-
Edit said file with your report text using the handy framework that madsailor setup inside the file.
-
Commit your edits, push them to your fork on Github, and send a pull request here.
-
Thank the moderator, the repository manager, and the Git mascot Octocat, then revel in your new-found glory.
Thanks for contributing!
