Perhaps a solution to this would be a game data parser similar to FLStat, but built as a web application.

This is basically what needs to happen if we're ever to have an accurate, up to date database for player reference.

I think we should keep the wiki.

It's been an important part of the mod for years. I still rely on the wiki and I'm sure others do as well.

Yeah to clarify, I don't approve of nuking the wiki. Just to be clear it isn't an accurate reference for hard mechanical information.

Automatic updates after patches would be amazing. Working on updating just about anything, but particularly tables, is a real pain in the ass.

wiki is usefull for me!

I'd say this place is better with the wiki than without it.

That said, I barely ever visit it, cause I find it crap as a useful tool for a long while now, but that's just me.

In spite of the occasional updates, I simply consider it an archive of a past era, & would love to see it become relevant again.

Till then, I'll just continue to get by just fine without it as I have been.

I did a poll a couple years back and the results were the majority of people get their info on Disco from the wiki. However, a lot of that information is oitfated right now, which is problematic.

These are my exact thoughts as well. I'd love to see basically an up to date, web-based FLStat. It would be absolutely fantastic.

Well I guess I know my next project.

Durandal poked me with this thinking I was awake AT ONE O'CLOCK IN THE F'IN MORNING

Could probably do something that would update the Wiki (it has APIs to do so).
One issue I'd find is differences between local ini files and server ini files (Yay Trading Market)

Though, a full blown web app (like the NavMap?) would be some new territory I'd be interested in.
