It looks like the wiki is down, or taking longer than my computer is willing to attempt to load, at least.

Finally caught up with all the new enemies!
 I created a new banner for the monsters (ala Megascorpions and their unnamed but planned brethren).  Its a new category in the Minor Factions.



I decided the Magical Girl would join the Rebels as one of those sort-of-aligned entities and she obviously doesn't belong to the human denizens.

Ohartenstein23 is making steady progress on the range weapons, updating the quick reference table at the top.  Its ironic or comical that just as he's about done with the shot gun section, Dioxine adopts his spread modifications all of those changes.  I think its safe to say that these scatter guns will undergo some flux before we stabilize on good values for them.

Finally finished the quick reference table for ranged weapons!  Writing a script to automate most of the process certainly helped.  Expect the rest of the page to be updated... well, whenever I feel like writing a new script to make the rest of it easier too.

We finally got a tactics page published using the wisdom unlocked from all those encrypted discs etc. :)

The ranged weapons article is up to date for 0.99C!  Some clean-up is necessary for the imported text from the Bootypedia, and images for many weapons need to be uploaded still, but expect it to take much less time to get everything up to date for new versions.  That 0.95 to 0.99C jump was a doozy.

Edit:  Yes, I know 0.99C1 is out with new weapons and some other changes, I just haven't gotten around to downloading it yet and running my reference-table-writing-scripts on it.  Plus some edits are necessary to add in the information about the Gaussian damage formulas for plasma weapons.

Further edit:  Now we're rolling 0.99C.1.

We've got an air strategy guide on the wiki!  There have also been a few updates to the ranged weapons, vessels, vessel weapons, and shippings pages, to bring them up to 0.99C1.

Thanks guys!  I had it pretty much written for a while now, so it was about damn time to get it online.  Thank Dioxine he didn't completely turn interceptions on their head in the last few updates, only just a mild upset of the balance.

040 || Using a two-handed weapon single-handedly usually incurs a 33% accuracy penalty. However, some weapons (indicated by the red 2-handeness marker) are either too heavy, too intricate or otherwise impossible to use when your off-hand is empty.

Shouldn't it be "...impossible to use when your off-hand isn't empty."?
(or alternatively "...impossible to use when you're holding something else in your off-hand.")

The text is taken straight from the Bootypedia pinup articles, this was a typo in a previous version (note the version out-of-date message at the top of the article), fixed in newer versions.
