Template:Gain

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

This template is used for Effects that increase qualities and items. It replaces the old system, and fully supports both item gains (formerly {{Item Gain}}), and pyramidal qualities (formerly {{Increase}}).

Usage: {{Gain|A|B|<params>}}

• The first parameter is the name of the item or quality.
• The second parameter is the amount gained. Standard formatting is "#" for discrete qualities, "# x" for items, and "+# CP" for pyramidal qualities.

Parameter list

• image, this parameter is used to set a custom image. Its value is the image name to be used, including the .png postfix but without the File: prefix. Please note that this should be the small version of the file (so ending in small.png). Also note that this will now only apply to the image at the front; changing the image of later {{IL}}'s is no longer supported.
• {{{1}}}, ie the first unnamed parameter defines the quality or item that is being increased, with its value being the full pagename of this quality.
• {{{2}}}, ie the second unnamed parameter defines the amount by which the first unnamed parameter. Its value is the numerical increase, including either the x or the CP postfix. Do not use this template if one of the following two parameters are used.
• occurrence, this parameter is used when the quality change starts with An occurrence. Its value is the new numerical value of the quality. Note that some of the templates allowed the use of |occurence=yes with the |now parameter having the numerical value, but that this behavior is now deprecated.
• to, this parameter is used when the quality change looks like x has increased to y. Its value is the new numerical value of the quality.
• message, this parameter is used to define a custom message for the quality/item increase. Note that this will not work if either |occurrence or to are set.
• now, this parameter is used to when the action sets a quality/item to a specific level, but doesn't use either |occurrence or to. Note that unlike those {{{2}}} and {{{message}}} do work with this one.
• hidden, this parameter is used to define whether the change is hidden or not. If the change is hidden set this to yes, otherwise don't include it.
• nocat, this parameter is used to disable categorisation. If set to yes it will not include Category:X Gain, otherwise don't include it. Note that the SMW Property:Gains will always be set.
• Cap, if a action can only raise a quality/item to a specified amount set this parameter to that value.

Note: global caps (such as 15 on notability) are automatically included by the template.
