Talk:Tamed Creatures

From Shroud of the Avatar Wiki - SotA
Jump to navigation Jump to search

I have started "improving" this page but, as you might not like my improvements, I made them to a "clone" of this page. See "Summonable Pets", (temporary name). Basically, the changes are:

a) I made your table sortable, (I sort by Summoning Level to see what creatures I might tame next, as my taming skill increased).

b) I created and started using "Template:Taming Necklace (Pet)", (because they're all the same except for the Summoning Level and creature's name).

I'm new to MediaWiki, but "Summonable Pets" seems to be working correctly. If you are okay with these changes, can we make them live, (improve "Tamed Creatures" and orphan "Summonable Pets")?

A peculiar change in the table's behavior!

By default, the first 50 tamed creatures are listed. I routinely clicked "further results" at the bottom to see the remaining 39, then clicked the "100" at the top to see all 89 tamed creatures.

That no longer worked. Only the remaining 39 tamed creatures were shown even after I clicked the "100" at the top. Then I had to also click "Previous 100" to see all 89.

I routinely sort this table by summoning level, to see what creature I might want to tame next. It took me a while to notice that "Large Brown Spider" was missing from the sorted list. And even longer to figure out that it wasn't missing: it was on the previous page.

So, I edited "Template:Query tamed pet" to sort by summoning level. This doesn't fix the problem, exactly, but the fact that none of the tamed creatures has a summoning level below 35, might give the user a hint.

Perhaps you know a better solution?
