Talk:Main Page

Forum links have changed

Old was kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/, new is forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/, which leads to 404s on some links on this page. --Kreuzung (talk) 13:00, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

RoboJeb is set up to fix this. -- N3X15 ^{(C · T · E)} 22:58, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

CoolNavBoxes are out of date

Could we get an update? There are two new planets now, and I imagine people are being turned away if the wiki looks that outdated.

Guide for installing on Linux

I think a nice comprehensive guide that can detail how to get KSP running on Linux would be great. However, I am not sure if this wiki is suitable for it, it's not really about in-game stuff. I can't think of any better place for it though, and the wiki style format means that it can be kept up-to-date as things change or better/simpler methods surface.

Why wouldn't the wiki be the perfect place for it? The entire wiki is KSP-centric, so obviously it's about ingame stuff. If you take a look at Getting Started, you'll see that one also is a from-scratch-guide. It'd be perfectly valid to have an alternative "Getting started with Unix"-thread. --Senshi (talk) 08:30, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Updating planetrow

Hi, with Kerbol System I worked on an advanced template ({{BodyBox}}) which adds a little more space around the planets. And is it possible to lineup the background with the boxes above and below. An example with the new template:

Kerbol

Moho

Eve

Kerbin

Duna

Dres

Jool

Eeloo

Is it possible to make "if lang" support for this template for non-latin transliteration of names? --Vatnik (talk) 08:27, 23 March 2013 (CDT)

Using {{lang}} (I guess this template you are wanting to use) needs to be updating in {{Main Page Layout}} everytime a language is added, I guess it should be done like in {{Main Page Layout}} by using additional parameters like “kerbin-name“ so Main Page/ru then could change the name of the Planet by using the parameter. So {{Main Page Layout}} uses the upper templates in this way:

{| class="mp-planetnav" width="100%"
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyKerbol.png
|name={{{kerbol-name|Kerbol}}}
|size=S
}}
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyMoho.png
|name={{{moho-name|Moho}}}
}}
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyEve.png
|name={{{eve-name|Eve}}}
}}
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyKerbin.png
|name={{{kerbin-name|Kerbin}}}
}}
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyDuna.png
|name={{{duna-name|Duna}}}
}}
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyDres.png
|name={{{dres-name|Dres}}}
}}
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyJool.png
|name={{{jool-name|Jool}}}
}}
{{BodyBox
|image=TinyEeloo.png
|name={{{eeloo-name|Eeloo}}}
}}
|}

That will be good, thanks! Somebody, who have permission to do this, should update Main Page Layout template--Vatnik (talk) 20:46, 23 March 2013 (CDT)
