Template:NPCTableHead/doc

This template is used to create NPC table for the pages describing combat complexes.

Dependencies

• Uses {{NPCTableCSS}} to acquire proper CSS. This template is transcluded through {{CMBSiteInfo}} so pages that use that template do not need to include anything else.
• Uses {{NPCTableHead}} to generate the header for NPC table.
• Uses {{NPCTableRow}} to generate rows.
• Uses {{NPCTableSeparator}} for separating parts of table with title.

Syntax

{{CMBSiteInfo}} OR {{NPCTableCSS}} (either one once somewhere in the article)
{{NPCTableHead|<Table header>}}
{{NPCTableRow|<Ship size>|<Ship count>|<Ship names>|<ewar=Ewar>|<cargo=Loot>|<drop=drop>|<trigger=Trigger>|<note=Notes>}}
{{NPCTableSeparator|<Separator title>}}
{{NPCTableRow|<Ship size>|<Ship count>|<Ship names>|<ewar=Ewar>|<cargo=Loot>|<drop=drop>|<trigger=Trigger>|<note=Notes>}}
|}

Ship count

The number of that class of NPC ship. Often this is variable, so feel free to use number ranges (e.g. 10-12) if necessary.

Ship names

The name(s) of the NPCs. It's recommended to consolidate ships of the same class into a single line (e.g. Coreli Patroller/Watchman). If there are a large number of different ship types, list the most common three or four types (e.g. Corelum Chief Defender/Guard/Protector/...).

point

If the NPC has a warp disruptor or warp scrambler, set the point=yes parameter (otherwise omit it). If the NPC uses warp scrambler (shuts off MWD and stops MJD) you can specify point=scram.

ewar

If the NPC uses electronic warfare, describe it here.

For rats that use multiple types of EWAR use ewar= |ewar2= |ewar3= |

Examples:

• ECM: ewar = ECM
• Tracking disruption: ewar = TD
• Guidance disruption: ewar = GD
• Sensor dampening: ewar = Damp
• Target painting: ewar = TP
• Stasis webifier: ewar = Web
• Energy neutralization ("neut"): ewar = Neut

cargo and drop

If something noteworthy drops it should be marked as cargo (shiny) or drop (not shiny).

note

If there is something else noteworthy about this ship then it can be added in this note.

cargo

If the NPC drops notable loot (e.g. faction modules, tech 2 salvage), note it here.

trigger

If destroying the NPC causes something to happen (unlock acceleration gate, trigger a new wave of enemies, etc), then use this parameter.

note

Use this parameter to add a footnote, which you can use to describe important information about the NPC (for instance, for very high dps NPCs, or high self-repair...).

Structures

Notable structures can also be added to the table. The following values can be used:

• Acceleration Gate
• Station
• Structure
• Wormhole
• Stargate
• Tower
• Asteroid
• Asteroid Field
• Container
• Red Container
• Beacon
• Billboard
• Force Field
• Gas Cloud
• Hackable
• Agent
• Hangar Array

In addition to the ship parameters noted above, structure entries can also use all the same parameters as ships.

NPCTableSeparator parameters

{{NPCTableSeparator|<Separator title>}}

Separator title

This is the title which describes next NPC group when you don't want to create additional table e.g. After 50% armor, On Commander aggression, Group near gate etc.
