Talk:Programmable Block

Jump to: navigation, search

I think that the majority of the information should be moved to Programming. What are your thoughts? This information will likely spread to more functionality, not just programmable blocks. Rhine (talk) 18:39, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

Agreed. The block page is for information on the block itself, how to construct it, etc. There should probably be separate API and Programming pages, as the API should be a reference while Programming should go over how all the code fits together, etc. Also we need to differentiate between the Modding API and the Scripting API.Ketura (talk) 18:43, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Useful Resources

Here are some topics from the /r/spaceengineers subreddit that have useful guides, discussions, questions, and other resources. The information here can be distilled into articles fairly easily; since I'm pressed for time right this second I'll just post the list if others want to start:
