Overview

This template is used to show an infobox at the top of a Tip mission article. In addition to showing the infobox, it also supplies the appropriate categories using a default sort key that strips off the first six characters (which should always be "Tip - "); thus, "Mission:Tip - Example" would sort under "E".

This template has special magic that ensures that it will only activate in the Mission: namespace. If an article in another namespace transcludes the article, the infobox and categories will automatically suppress. (Conversely, this means it can only be used in the Mission: namespace.)

Usage

Copy and paste to use:

{{Infobox Tip
|name=
|image=
|type=
|place=
|available=
|levelfrom=
|levelto=
|choice=
}}

Explanation of parameters:

name=
Overwrite for main header. Defaults to name drawn from PageName.
image=
An associated icon for the tip for special tip missions. If left blank will default to File:Salvage TipIcon.png
sub=
Overwrites sub header if unique. By default derives from type=.
type=
The type of tip mission. This must be one of the following:
  • alignment, for an alignment mission
  • morality, for a morality mission
  • introduction, for introduction missions that unlock a contact
  • event, for an event mission
place=
The place where the tip drops. Possible options:
  • Paragon City, required for alignment and morality missions in Paragon City
  • Rogue Isles, required for alignment and morality missions in the Rogue Isles
  • Anywhere, recommended for tips that can drop anywhere (such as event tips)
available=
Specifies who the tip is available to. That is, who the tip will drop for. This must be one of the following:
  • hero, for Heroes
  • vill, for Villains
  • rog, for Rogues
  • vig, for Vigilantes
  • herovig, for Heroes and Vigilantes
  • villrog, for Villains and Rogues
  • herovigrog, for Heroes, Vigilantes, and Rogues
  • villrogvig, for Villains, Rogues, and Vigilantes
  • all4, for Heroes, Vigilantes, Villains, and Rogues
  • everyone, for Everyone
levelfrom=
levelto=
Together, these two parameters specify the level range, with levelfrom= being the lower bound and levelto= being the upper bound. If the levels aren't known, then leave these parameters blank and a question mark will automatically be supplied.
choice=
Specifies what alignment/morality choice is available in the mission. This must be one of the following:
  • hero, for Heroes
  • vill, for Villains
  • rog, for Rogues
  • vig, for Vigilantes
  • herovig, for Heroes and Vigilantes
  • villrog, for Villains and Rogues
