			== Less tutorial ==

			I think this article should focus on "what is scripting?" and less on tutorials, which are addressed elsewhere. Can I make that change? [[User:KC Grimes\|KC Grimes]] ([[User talk:KC Grimes\|talk]]) 17:30, 25 April 2018 (CEST)

	Making the list for OFP up to version 1.46 and a list for OFP up to version 1.97 won't be too difficult, however, making a list for ArmA will be difficult, as we have no access to such a list, nor the definitions of new commands and relevant changes to old commands.

	~~If we had such a list we might manage that better ;)~~

	~~Planck~~

	~~-----~~
	Off course, I assume nobody outside BIS can make sure ArmA list is accurate. A good starting point could be to assume all 1.97 commands are still present in ArmA. We will add new commands and remove obsolete ones later on.

	~~--[[User:Suma\|Suma]] 15:07, 19 April 2006 (CEST)~~

	~~-----~~

	~~Ok, that sounds fair enough. :)~~

	~~Planck~~

	~~== Command case mismatch in the examples ==~~

	A lot of examples contain mismatches case in command links. To find them efficiently use [[Special:Wantedpages]] - when you see a command there, click on the number of links and you will see which pages are referencing the command by using bad case. Fixing it is then easy.

	~~--[[User:Suma\|Suma]] 16:32, 21 April 2006 (CEST)~~

	~~<hr>~~
	~~I can't see any mismatched case in command links, however there were links to pages that did not yet exist.~~
	~~I created the pages as placeholders.~~

	~~Planck~~

	~~<hr>~~
	~~I cleaned up most of the case mismatches for the com refs.~~

	~~Hoz~~

	~~<hr>~~

	~~Suma, can it be assumed that any of the new scripting commands in Elite, would also be in ArmA? Can we go ahead and populate those commands in ArmA?~~

	~~-hoz~~

	~~-----~~
	~~Yes, you can assume anything in OFP:E is valid for ArmA as well. We can verify / update this later on you add them.~~

	~~--[[User:Suma\|Suma]] 10:30, 27 April 2006 (CEST)~~

	~~-----~~
	~~We've added all the OFP:E commands, there was no offical release so we are unable to populate those commands logically. If you have a comref for OFP:E we can populate those too.~~

	~~-hoz~~
	~~-----~~
	Gentlemen, please excuse my ignorance, but where did version 1.97 come from? I have never heard of it and it is not available in the listing at [http://www.flashpoint1985.com/download/download.html "Addons at Ease" Dowloads]?

	~~--[[User:RichUK\|RichUK]] 17:32, 28 April 2006 (CEST)~~
	~~-----~~

	~~Well, it was Suma himself that created the Category, so I assume it refers to the latest server.exe update because I too have up to 1.96.~~

	~~[[User:Planck\|Planck]] 11:56, 29 April 2006 (CEST)~~
	~~-----~~

	~~== 1.96 is correct ==~~

	~~There is no 1.97. 1.96 is correct - a mistake on my side (working with 2.97 daily at the time of writing .;).~~

	~~I assume moving all articles into correct categories will be quite painfull now, but if more people would be able to cooperate on this, it may not be that bad.~~

	~~--[[User:Suma\|Suma]] 15:06, 1 June 2006 (CEST)~~


	~~Oh well... so let's start! We've got a month of time left.~~

	~~--[[User:Raedor\|Raedor]] 20:27, 1 June 2006 (CEST)~~


	~~== Category Scripting? ==~~

	We already have categorys for the different commands, but what about things like the [[Debugging Techniques]]? They don't fit the category Scripting commands, but "Scripting" and I think there are some other pages that would fit this category (tutorials etc).

	~~--[[User:Raedor\|Raedor]] 22:58, 2 July 2006 (CEST)~~

	~~I think we can get away with 1 debug tech. Unless I'm missing something. We can reference inside the article suttle differences with each version.~~
