To make a module, simply fork this repo and add a new entry under the Modules section. However, keep this in mind:
- Every module must have it's own subfolder in the modules folder. This will make the project much more manageable by reducing clashes. Modules that do not follow this rule won't be added to the main repo at all.
- Every module should follow some guidelines. Ideally, the content should be divided in the following files:
- 00 Changes.md: Any changes made to the original system. This should, obviously, be the first thing a new player/QM reads. If the module also depends from other module (Adding content to it, for example) it should also be informed here.
- 01 Creatures.md: All creatures added. Precalculations such as a creature's speed and HP should be done here.
- 02 Magic: All the spells added. New spell categories should also be added here, ideally in their own subcategory.
- 03 Equipement: All items added, ideally categorized in articles if the content exceeds a few items.
- 04 Vehicles.md
- 99 Changelog.md: The changelog of the game, filled as the creator sees fit. It's advisable to have properly maintained one.
- Of course there can be deviation-- If you are adding many creatures it'd be wise to divide them by class along multiple Articles, but it's still for the convenience of players that the content is divided neatly.
Gitbook plugins used in this that contributors should be aware of:
- footnote-string-to-number: Eases footnote numbering by making it an automatic process. The reason all footnotes are ^like] [^this. instead of numbers.
- printlinks: If the book is printed, all links are written in the footer.
- image-captions: Allows to have captions in images.
- style: Allows custom text styling.
