Function doc markup

Pseudo markup format for Robo Instructus containing documentation for the functions unlocked during the game. This is a custom markup for the game's uses.

Markup format:

  • #!unlock means the start of a section, the lines following are the message in simplified markdown.
  • Most of the time the first line, starting with # is the subject.
  • Newlines always count, unlike markdown.
  • Backticks wrap inline bits of code, e.g `var foo = q`. Inline code shouldn't be translated.
  • Three backticks ``` wrap around code blocks. They may have text immediately after them, e.g.```no_run which isn't displayed & should be left in english. In code blocks only comments should be translated.
  • Text like $tu{robo_forward()} will be replaced in with the runtime cost of the function ie 450. These shouldn't be modified.
  • Text like $render{robo_forward} will indicate where to render the function in action "image" in-game. These shouldn't be modified.
  • type{function(s)} new function(s) unlock
  • type{function-update} new docs for a function, like a new scan code. Replaces previous docs.
  • type{short} short version function doc that appears top-left above the code input. Note: The extra space after the ) in `robo_use() ` use curr... is intentional.

Example

#!unlock type{functions} id{left-forward}
`robo_left()` Each call instructs the robot to move to the next side of the current tile, counter-clockwise. Runtime $tu{robo_left()} Mimas-seconds (ms).
$render{robo_left}
`robo_forward()` Instructs the robot to move forward onto a tile it's currently facing. The robot will favour veering to the right hand side when doing this. Runtime $tu{robo_forward()} ms.
$render{robo_forward}
