The docs need some attention because a lot of what is written about C4Script is not really true anymore, some articles are outdated (e.g. renderclonks), many examples are wrong and a lot is not translated into english (anymore). If there is anybody who would like to help, the following needs to be done:

1. Revision of the parts of the reference that explain the language, the game data etc. (everything that is not the function reference)


2. Revise examples and descriptions of functions: Many examples are not correct anymore as well as the descriptions of functions. The most common reason is the change from GetX(obj) to obj->GetX() as well as the replacement of FindObject with a new function (formerly known as FindObject2) and the introduction of nil.


3. Translation of German into English: In openclonk/docs/, there is a file called en.po where for every German string, there should be an English translation. Search for msgstr "" to find the untranslated strings.

None of the three different tasks is anything that can be done in a few minutes, all three are major tasks. That's why I suggest that if you want to help to update the docs by say having a look at the descriptions and examples of the function reference, you just note down here what parts of that task you want to do. E.g. for the function reference: all functions starting with the letter A-D.

To edit the documentation, you need to get the source. The docs are in openclonk/docs/. See the mercurial guide on how to checkout the source.
