It's not obvious from the current dialogue what can happen at the V2 zapper. You choose from a list of your pets to zap, how would a new user know that there is a chance of an item getting hit or something else?

I can look into figuring out how to do that :)

Have not forgotten this thread! Going to be going through more of these tonight/tomorrow. :) So far what I've done today:

Dec 13th:

  • Billboard page now has a warning about file size uploading
  • Vending Machines message at the top is no longer ‘help test the other machines’, now it just says ‘visit the other machines’.

Yeah, and I were working on it last night. We had a thing where it explained stats/tiers but it was just too much information and was bringing the page down really bad. Like you'd have to scroll quite a bit to get to pets. I can add the "an addition" to information easily!

With the guide, they (the battle admins) wanted to keep it simple. I'm def going to be adding a link to that helpful thread in the BC about battling, which goes into detail about all the aspects of battling. :)

I'm not saying we won't make a more in-depth guide somewhere else, but that specific newbie guide the battle admins wanted to keep simple so it wouldn't overwhelm new users. :) I'm all for making a page with more information, but it's a delicate balance of actual useful information and information overload, you know?

[edit]

To go into a little more detail -- I would love to have guides for our different features, like in-depth battling. It's just a matter of going about it the right way. The user guide that is linked on the training page is absolutely fantastic, seriously. I'm in no way a battler, but that guide really put a lot of things in perspective for me last night when I was working on the training page. I wish we could've been able to have what I did pushed live, but it would've had a lot of downsides (seriously there was an information-overload situation going on where users would have to scroll a lot to get to put their pets in training). I'm toying with working with a battle admin and the user who made the thread (because I don't want to just steal their work, but seriously they explained things so well haha) to make a more in-depth guide that can be linked in the BC + the newbie guide.

Also, I really doubt we'll do your suggest for Subetapedia because that really is our lore section on site.
