Custom thing mapping

Transcribed from DECORATE content. No wikilink for now, pending article reorganization. Also I don't know the class number for health, armor, keys, and power-ups. --Gez (talk) 12:36, 17 December 2020 (CST)

The updated episode 1 has the same table (just with a lot less stuff, since all the episode 2 and later stuff was cleaned out), but there's a small change in that the homing rockets are now called missiles, and there's a gatling gun instead of the pyrocannon:

2	20103	Missile launcher
3	22104	Two missiles
3	22105	Box of missiles
2	20107	Gatling gun

Not incredibly important, but here you go. --Gez (talk) 12:47, 17 December 2020 (CST)

Article rewrite

I was preparing to write a mapping table, but Gez was kind enough to write one here a few months ago. Thanks! I guess I'll just go through some of the edits I've done to the article. I've largely rewritten it to be more in line with the other articles found on the wiki, using the /idgames archive release as a base - I am aware of the existence of other betas with slightly different maps and weapons floating around the internet, but some of them aren't even available publicly anymore so it makes sense to stick to the idgames version. I've gone through every single DECORATE entry, written descriptions for the weapons myself, and even for some of the monsters and items for which no description was available previously, and I've cleared the descriptions of conceptual enemies which never ended up being implemented in Demon Eclipse at all. I've also reformatted the story text a bit to make it take less space, but I've kept the same text as before. I still think some sort of template for custom enemies, maybe with a drop-down menu similar to spoiler tags on forum boards, would make the article easier to read, but at the very least this article is no longer an incoherent, outdated mess, so with the table also available courtesy of Gez I'd say the automatic creation of map pages can proceed as planned. Thanks to everyone for the help and the previously available information! Let me know if there's any issues you want me to take care of. --Dynamo128 (talk) 11:58, 19 March 2021 (CDT)
