Actually Firestorm DOES use another EXE, though it just overrides the TS one rather than creating a new one. But the new exe is still fully compatible with the TS rules, just as RockPatch is still fully compatible with the YR rules. There aren't very many flags that are new to Firestorm, as you have mentioned. For consistency, we should probably add FS to the list, if it indeed works in FS. However I was looking at this in terms of what would be best in the long run. Eventually we will need to specify which flags work in which games, so that users can easily navigate ModEnc and locate the information that they're looking for.

What about Firestorm?

I've noticed that we haven't been putting FS in the Works in Game(s) slot. Why is that?

I keep omitting it because, to my knowledge, no code from TS was castrated in FS (I mean, if your game is fully patched to 2.03, the engine used is completely the same regardless of whether you pick to play "TS" or "FS" in the startup menu) and thus all code flagged as "works in TS" works implicitly in FS. The only pages stating "works in FS" are flags introduced by FS, such as Template:TTL. However, I'm now starting to think that might not be the best idea and a sign such as "2.03" would work better.
That is not the case in the RA2/YR transition (as it uses a separate exe as opposed to patching the original one), so YR deserves a separate mention. //DCoder 06:49, 30 August 2006 (CEST)

I agree with V7 fully.
FS is separate game.
So we need add it to all tags.

Actually Firestorm DOES use another EXE, though it just overrides the TS one rather than creating a new one. But the new exe is still fully compatible with the TS rules, just as RockPatch is still fully compatible with the YR rules. There aren't very many flags that are new to Firestorm, as you have mentioned. For consistency, we should probably add FS to the list, if it indeed works in FS. However I was looking at this in terms of what would be best in the long run. Eventually we will need to specify which flags work in which games, so that users can easily navigate ModEnc and locate the information that they're looking for.

So who wants to go over the existing pages adding TD/CO, RA/CS/AM, and TS/FS to them as necessary? :p //DCoder 06:16, 31 August 2006 (CEST)
