• Newbie Questions Board :: Proper Question Template
    13 replies, posted
I decided that there needed to be a global template for asking questions on this forum. If anyone at all would like to contribute, please post ahead. [code] What is your problem: What type is your problem (coding, models/materials, addon mods, gamemode, SWEP, Entity): Is your code serverside, clientside, or shared: How experienced are you at GLua (new, fair, very): Did you receive an error: If yes, what was the entire contents of this error: If yes, what color was this error (blue, yellow, red): Post the source of your error (in lua tags):[/code]Example: What is your problem: [B]I don't know how to draw a square on the screen.[/B] What type is your problem (coding, models/materials, addon mods): [B]coding[/B] Is your code serverside, clientside, or shared: [B]clientside[/B] How experienced are you at GLua (new, fair, very): [B]new[/B] Did you receive an error: [B]N/A[/B] If yes, what was the entire contents of this error: [B]N/A[/B] If yes, what color was this error (blue, yellow, red): [B]N/A[/B] Post the source of your error (in lua tags): [B]N/A[/B]
I used that :v:
Not to blow my own horn, but I think the template worked pretty nice for you. It helped me understand your problem better :smile:
You might add if it's related to a SWEP, Gamemode, SENT, or something else.
Added.
My questions still never get answered :P, the past four questions were very informative... and the last one followed your format... still no responses. Oh wells :P
It's probably because tmysql help is hard to come by in a Lua scripting section because only a few of us know MySQL and Lua.
Well then I guess I feel special that I know it somewhat. :P EDIT: you should also add like, the intention of the code.. If you know what i mean. Errr... the goal your trying to achieve by fixing this. (So they can help you if they know a more eficient way)
I don't think people should have to stick to a strict template when asking questions, as long as they get all the information across it's fine.
I think it's intended for those who think they could use one.
[QUOTE=MakeR;20717186]I don't think people should have to stick to a strict template when asking questions, as long as they get all the information across it's fine.[/QUOTE] Well of course they can just write what their asking, however I guess it's meant as more of a way to steer future people into posting what is needed ETC.
Thread titles should also be descriptive. I don't want to open a thread titled: [code]SHARED.LUA?!?!? OMG help[/code]
[QUOTE=Nevec;20723989]Thread titles should also be descriptive. I don't want to open a thread titled: [code]SHARED.LUA?!?!? OMG help[/code][/QUOTE] Why he might need help with his shared.lua maybe?
he meant like this title: [code]SHARED.LUA HELP!!! VIA darkrp[/code] That should be like [code]shared.lua help. using DarkRp[/code]
