As the community here has different 1st languages, when sharing one, intent and what's actually written are often not in alignment. So when referencing "the language thing ", I tried to make a distinction between what "the post literally says" 91st part) and "what I think Nudge meant" (2nd part) as a basis for further discussion. I obviously didn't do that as well as I'd hoped, as we're diverting into semantics (1st part) rather than addressing the idea itself (2nd part). Let my try and do better.
In the language written, the post implies something other than where I think Nudge wanted to go. For example, here's some common English uses of "scrape" (definition: "to remove from a surface ")
- Junior, make sure "scrape" the doggie poo of ya shoes before ya go in the house.
- Busboys, make sure ya "scrape" all the food off a plate before sticking in dishwasher
- I got a ticket today not because I didn't have my inspection sticker on the windshield but because I didn't "scrape" the old one off.
- Oh man, they still didn't "scrape" the roadkill of the pavement in front of our house yet.
- I was looking forward to another season of that TV show but it was "scraped".
In common usage, the scraped stuff is not retained ....it's never seen again. So before going on to what I surmised was the idea I wanted to make that clear fir subsequent participants in the thread .... I don't think it was intended that we in any way would want all Info boxes "scraped" (aka removed) never to be seen again.
With that ... or so I thought :) ... out of the way, transitioned to what I surmised Nudge intended starting with... "Now if we talking about things out in the wild"... examples I gave were Mobs and NPCs and if it wasn't clear, these are identical to the other examples which Moniq posted.
I, and I presume Nudge, is looking for feedback of how these might be used..... whether it's worth the T & E of removing them or scraping "transferring" data from other sources into these windows. And hence the meat of the issue or what I think Nudge wanted to place on the table for discussion
A. Mob Window Options
1. a) eliminate, b) include basic data c) make it editable d) combination of b and c
2. If b), what data should be included
B. NPC Window Options
1. a) eliminate, b) include basic data c) make it editable d) combination of b and c
2. If b), what data should be included
C. Other "in the wild" Objects
1. a) eliminate, b) include basic data c) make it editable d) combination of b and c
