    Searching for "360" doesn't return the Line of Fire page in the search results, even though that page contains three instances of the phrase "360".

    Thanks, this should be fixed now.

    How bizarre. That appears to be an issue with Mediawiki itself!

    Potentially numerical only parts of queries are omitted.

    No, it's weirder than that, because other pages that have 360º in the text show up, but not the Line of Fire page.

    Digging further, Mediawiki appears to ignore the 360 part of 360º, but if the HTML entity ˚ is used instead of the proper degrees character then it finds the 360 string. So definitely a Mediawiki bug because the two strings should be treated identically.

    Anyway, I've fixed this on Line of Fire and Camouflaged State, and a bunch of pages on the Spanish wiki.

    Hmm. ˚ is actually the wrong HTML code, it should be ° or °. But Mediawiki is still treating 360° differently than 360º.

    I'm perversely proud of myself for having found such an obscure bug.

    As a former betatester and someone with career in general QA, I fully understand that feeling and concur, it's a nice one :D

    I think the fix for this caused some unintended alterations. See the below bold emphasis that used to read "front 180º arc" unless I'm mistaken.

    https://infinitythewiki.com/Line_of_Fire

    The target must be totally or partially within the Trooper's front 360˚ arc, unless some Special Skill or piece of Equipment ignores this restriction.​

    This might be a dumb request, and will probably take a lot of work, but can we please get a little more redundancy in the wiki? The only thing that comes to mind right now is that in the camouflaged state cancellation section it does not mention that an Idle will reveal the trooper, yet in the Idle description it calls out that Idle reveals all marker state troopers.

    Thanks for all your hard work on the wiki, it is an invaluable resource for this game!

    Not sure if this is a bug or is waiting for an FAQ but the green box on the Stealth page still says "Outside ZoC" rather than inside, and "Performs" rather than "Declares"

    I can add ‘See Also’ links at the bottom, although I’ve found that they tend to get ignored. :-(
    The rules text itself isn’t something I can change arbitrarily.

    Rather like the above, I can’t change the text of an existing FAQ before there’s an updated FAQ!

    I'm struggling to find the profiles for Perimeter weapons on the wiki (ARM, S, STR, etc). CKs and Fastpandas can be seen in examples but I can't find Madtraps or Wildparrots (though the WP is in the FAQ PDF)

    Madtrap profile doesn’t appear to be in the PDF of the rulebook at all?
