To do

There are three things that we ask you to do whenever you can: improve and update existing pages, help with current projects and correct language mistakes whenever you spot them.

Everyone's help is welcome. If you feel like contributing a lot, it is great but remember: quality is much more important than quantity; for example, it is much better to write one good article than a hundred bad ones.

For information on how to write new articles or edit existing ones, please follow this link.

What needs to be done

The following part of the latest changelog needs to be given special attention, and articles it might affect need to be updated with the information it contains

FEATURES: Added the display of fog of war (shadow over the area outside FOV). *to enable it, bind it to a hotkey using 2238 config tool. Use the hotkey to toggle its display in game. *to change the fog color, add the following string to FOnline2238.cfg in [2238] section: *FogColor = R G B A *where R, G, B and A range from 0 to 255. *there might be a slight difference between FOV contours and the fog of war boundary due to different drawing methods - no need to report that unless the difference is big. A new repeatable quest, talk to Martin at Westin's Ranch. CHANGES (WIP): Gun Runners courier quest: box is removed after succesful lockpick. Changed Gunrunners Courier Job: Decreased reputation needed to enter the faction to 900. Added limit of max. 1000 reputation being possible to gain from doing the job. Minor resistance modifier increase for JHP ammo. Advanced materials crafting batches. Add Helmet Anti Crit Modifiers to their pages and to armors category.
