<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Shows the game's modules from the game's own data, for [[Template:Module|<nowiki>{{Module}}</nowiki>]] and [[Template:Module row|<nowiki>{{Module row}}</nowiki>]]. Used on [[Modules]] and the region pages.<br />
<br />
The data comes live from the game's browser build on the game's CDN. The server reads it, and Lua gets it through the library <code>mw.ext.gameData</code>: <code>getVersion()</code>, <code>getModule(key)</code> (by id or by name), <code>getModules(category)</code> and <code>getCategories()</code>. It updates with each game build, without edits on the wiki. Text from the game is escaped. The styles are in [[Template:Module/styles.css]] (TemplateStyles).<br />
<br />
== Entry points ==<br />
* <code>main(frame)</code>, for <nowiki>{{Module}}</nowiki>: <code>id</code> or <code>name</code>. <code>text</code> replaces the shown name. Names link to the module database on perfecttower2.com, or with <code>link</code> to a wiki page. <code>view</code> is one of:<br />
** <code>icon</code> (default): the name in the text, with a category swatch and a tooltip (category, type, max tier);<br />
** <code>compact</code>: a card with the short description;<br />
** <code>full</code>: a panel with the description, max tier, levels per tier, prices, target, tags and game version (numbers through [[Module:FormatNumber]]).<br />
* <code>row(frame)</code>, for <nowiki>{{Module row}}</nowiki>: one table row. <code>layout</code> picks the columns: standard (default; with <code>location</code>, <code>condition</code>, <code>formula</code>), <code>infinity</code> (adds <code>maxtier</code>, <code>gridlocation</code>, <code>gridcoordinates</code>, <code>unlockcost</code>) or <code>region</code> (type, name and <code>condition</code>). <code>note</code> adds the wiki's note under the description.<br />
* <code>_view(m, args)</code> and <code>_row(m, args, key, available)</code>: the same from a module table, for tests.<br />
<br />
Values the game fills in at runtime show in brackets, such as <code>[chance]</code>; a parameter with that name (<code>chance=20%</code>) puts the wiki's value in its place. The templates' own parameter names (<code>id</code>, <code>view</code>, <code>formula</code> and so on) don't work for this.<br />
<br />
An id or name the game doesn't have shows "Unknown module" and adds [[:Category:Pages with unknown modules]], except in the Template and Module namespaces. When the game data can't be read, the id or name shows as plain text.<br />
