Template:World Quality Condition/doc

From Fallen London Wiki

Make Wiki content update dynamically based on the current value of World Qualities. This uses Semantic MediaWiki under the hood to look at the Current Value on the quality's Wiki page.

In the simple use, given text will only appear if the relevant World Quality has the correct value. If the World Quality has a different value, nothing will display. This can be used to display notices like "This Buyer is more valuable this week." The name of the World Quality is given in the Quality argument, and the relevant value (or a list of values) in the Value argument. An additional quality-value pair can be added with the Quality2 and Value2 arguments.

If the given text is suppressed, it will be stored (concatenated) into a variable, and can be displayed elsewhere on the page by calling the Deferred template. For example, actions that are locked during the current week can be stored in this variable, and displayed under a different heading. By default the variable is named "deferred_text," but this can be overriden by the Variable to concatenate different values into different lists.
