Summary0002712: Integrate the wiki into the game
DescriptionThis is sunshine!s idea (http://www.arcengames.com/forums/index.php/topic,8155.msg70667.html#msg70667 ), I am just submitting it.

It would be nice to have the wiki inside the game like the Civilopedia of Civilisation.
Initially it should suffice to have an HTML viewer and a static version of the wiki that corresponds to the current (official) version.
Second step would be linking various things to their articles
- game modes
- ship types
- AI types
For example, hovering over a ship type on the planetary summary and pressing F1 could display the article on that ship type.

It also would be nice if you could switch between the offline version and the online, current version.

It would probably need some reorganization of the wiki but that wouldn't be a bad thing, anyways, making the info more accessible.
TagsNo tags attached.

There is no feasible way to do this, we've thought about it. The only way would be if thee was an in-game web browser, and there is not. Duplicating a wiki like that in another form of code is completely out of the question. If unity ever adds a web browser to their engine, though, then we'd use it for this.
