Forum:Command Board revamp

21:09, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) Some bonus panels will always vary.
 * 2) Some bonus panels will be present until the player obtains the technique from the Command Board.
 * 3) Some bonus panels will be present until the player obtains the technique from anywhere.
 * 4) Some bonus panels will have character-specific bonuses, and follow either 2 or 3.
 * 5) Bonus panels in the Arena can vary like 1, but never disappear.
 * In other words, we need the Ultimania to be able to document every one. 22:03, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Template example. I think we should rename the images, so "Keyblade Board Map KHBBS" instead of "KB Board Map". 17:56, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Looks great, but can we use the in-game screenshot the game provides instead of the map? The map would probably be better served as a larger image alongside the list of bonuses. 19:40, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * The plan was that the more detailed map found in the Ultimania would be used to explain the bonuses since it also has the GP prices of each panel, the prize cube info etc. We need someone to remove the character images off the map and make the backgrounds transparent. P.S: I'm starting a draft for the Keyblade Board. 19:55, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Can I have some feedback on the draft, which is now completed? 21:05, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Tes désirs sont des ordres. Though I had to do it manually because of the white on the inside of the blocks and the annotation stars, I think it turned out pretty well. Please message me if you spot stray particles-- the test I did with a blue background showed good results. À mon avis, I think it would be best if we integrated each board into the corresponding world article, seeing as each one is unlocked after clearing a world. Everything on the current CB page would remain as detailed as it is, with a more specialized version onto the world articles-- like what we did with the Dream Eater Ability Link boards TSH previously worked on. With this plan, the template would need to be expanded to incorporate that grid style with underlying annotations on one tab and the goal/checkpoint/rates onto the second tab, making the name/kana into an introductory sentence at the top. That is a ton of work-- but it has been done before! and I'm not sure if the user who did it felt mentally stable after all of it! If we get those ultimania scans, we can see if an ultimania and/or japanese expert (**WINK WINK SHARDOFTRUTH**) would be willing to assist us. (P.S.-- continue uploading those scans!!!) 23:32, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Good job on the image! Shard uploaded the entire BBS Ultimania album with the Command Board pages included so is there anyone able to translate and take the maps out? I think the command board articles should definitely stay on their own pages because there's a lot of information to put down, they're self-contained and the Secret Board is unlocked slightly differently. One more problem: Skull Rock does not have a page in the Ultimania (it's an international/Final Mix addition) so what should we do for its stats? 20:01, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Improvise :) Maybe we can forge a board of our own? or stub it and leave it out to dry... Is naming scheme still ____ Map KHBBS.png? 01:27, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Probably the best idea. I made up the naming schema for the detailed maps (_____ Full Map KHBBS.png), but it's open to change. 20:13, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Shard also had a scan of the Skull Board from the BBSFM Master Navigation, but it's not that detailed. I think we can get the stats in-game and make the map ourselves by copying panels and numbers from the other maps. I'm not sure how we can get the opponent's cards, though. 18:09, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

To do

 * Upload full map images from Ultimania.
 * Translate information.
 * Find kana/romaji for special panel effects.
 * Upload gifs/screenshots for special panel effects.
 * Create articles for each board:
 * Left to do: Keyblade, Royal, Spaceship, Toon, Skull, Honeypot, Secret.
 * Revise strategy sections
 * Rewrite Command Board article.
