If it is ready, it is the best to disable the edit sharing option

The patch notes from 3603 to 3634 are now fully complete, compressed, and formatted on the Google Doc link. It is ready for the Wiki, or wherever the hell else visionik wants to put it.

Alright, all done and up on the google doc, all the way through to the current patch, learned a few interesting things looking through the patch notes

Otherwise I know there is some proof reading that should be done and a few of the later patches had bug fixes that are very clearly balance changes that are in the wrong section on the notes (should be moved, I'll get to it later if you haven't, just too tired now). A few of your acu/scu upgrade names differed from names elsewhere, I merged things that were clearly the same thing and left the stuff that wasn't (at least one upgrade name changed in faf patches, I made note of that when i came across it, not sure if others changed in earlier patches or what, but it shouldn't be too hard to sort out). Also there are a few changes that were listed in the patch notes that lacked notes of what the values were before the change so finding what the values originally were in 3603 would probably be helpful for anyone browsing through it.

Not sure how much we care about noting all the various lobby/game modes/other non-game specific things, but I noted them all down anyway in their own sections so feel free to remove those if we don't want them. Lastly we should link to various faf wiki pages for a lot of patch note explanations (specifically engi-mod is more understandable with the pictures in its post, same with the shift+g addition and the hotbuild/GazUI inclusion)

This is exhausting, anyone want to help out?

Sure, I don't see you on faf right now and I can't edit the doc but I'll start compiling the changes from where the doc says you left off, I'll be on faf while I'm doing that if you happen to see this, should have a few hours to put toward it tonight, otherwise if I don't hear from you I'll post whatever I get done here.

I've started to build a changelog from 3603 (Steam) to present. It's 500 lines and I'm not even half-way through, though much of that will be cut down in the end. It's an enormous task 0_0

At least for unit stats can't you automate it? Doesn't the current unit database read stuff from blueprints as well? After that it's just the other features that got implemented or bugs that got fixed (which is still a fuckload I guess).

Things I'd (as a noob) like to be added to the wiki:

Detailed changes from vanilla to faf (not the changelog, a vanilla-now comparison)
Mod guide (especially for UI mods), things like what it does and what functionality does it add

Yes a guide for the more common mods is also necessary, especially mods that are integrated (hotbuild is really important but not obvious at all for example)
