Documentation
This basic Formation Builder generates pictures that you can use everywhere on the net (forums, blogs...).
It uses exactly the same syntax as the [formation-picture] tag on the Atlantica-db forums.
Syntax:
Basically, you type your formation using an intuitive way. An example is better than a long explanation:Northern Viking-Instrument(M)-SpartanYou don't need to type long names, as the parser can recognize usual abbreviations and nicknames. The previous formation could be writing like that:
Oracle-Elementalist-Empress
Inventor-Monk-Exorcist
NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa
Ora-Ele-Himiko
Inv-Mon-Exo
Options:
You can add the following options on the 4th line (one letter = one option):- F to use a Female main character instead of a male
- H to use Hero-grade pictures for the mercenaries
- S to generate a Small picture instead of a big one
NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa | NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa | NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa |
No option:![]() |
Female+Hero:![]() |
Hero+Small:![]() |
Note: the F option has no effect on Small pictures
Additional Information:
- This basic Formation Build is designed to be an alternative to the AOP's one. I do know it's much less polished, but does its main job (image generation) very well, using less resources for the server.
- All known mercenaries are handled
- If you expect further development of this tool, you can use the Support page
