The intent of this initiative is to create technical documentation for all of the unit types that are of interest to modders, indexed by the class name, complete with the -dump_units output for each. I think this will be effective in the long run, in terms of maintainability, because the -dump_units output between game versions can easily be compared with each update. Moreover, because the titles reflect the game's internal data structure, the need for updates to the documentation can be driven directly by the changelog.

Obviously, this structure caters more to the intermediate- to advanced modder, so more generic documentation along the lines of the existing ''Player Truck Definitions'', etc are still needed. Moreover, beginners tend to approach things from a more ''objective-driven'' angle that is better-served by tutorials. My suggestion would be to wiki-link back to the relevant unit class documentation wherever editing of definition files is involved. This way, any time a unit class changes substantially, we have a starting point for keeping the wiki up-to-date via the ''[[Special:WhatLinksHere|What links here]]'' tool.

I'm planning to start a similar set of documentation for the game's various shader effects, where there is both technical documentation and more general usage guides.

This is a partial listing of my recent/ongoing creations. The ones under the most active development usually have a thread on the [http://forum.scssoft.com SCS forum] which I update regularly. If you have any questions about a technique I've used, etc feel free to ask in the related threads. I'm usually happy to discuss such things.
