Initial FGD to markdown generator #128

Closed braem closed 1 year ago

braem commented 2 years ago

Hooks into the FGD compile process to allow for generating markdown.

Ideally we will host this on some static site with additional, manually-written usage documentation appended.

Very nice! Not sure though if it'd be better to generate these on the tagged database, then add the little "only in X" icons. With a preset list of tags → icons, it'd be possible to match up.

I was thinking something similar yeah, where you can see what entities/kvs/etc are in which game. Ended up scrapping it as it is more complicated and mappers don't tend to stray from one particular game. Someone mapping for momentum for instance most likely only wants to see exactly what is in momentum.

I think from a standpoint of your project, it would be quite cool and useful to be able to see what is in a multitude of different games like that though - coming from my stance anyways where I frequently have to search the FGDs of older games to determine their structure for fixing bugs.
