Sablon:Entity/Ports/doc

This is a documentation subpage for 'Sablon:Entity/Ports'.

It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Sablon:Entity/Ports invokes function main in Modul:Entity/Ports using Lua.

Renders an entity's port loadout as a vertical stack of collapsible category cards (Weapons, Manned Turrets, Coolers, Quantum Drives, Life Support, and so on). Designed to sit as body content on an entity page, separate from the Template:Entity infobox at the top. Reads the same upstream API data via Module:Entity/Data, so the cache is shared with any other Entity-family template on the page.

Works identically for items and vehicles. Each card holds aggregated rows (count + size pill + equipped item link); turret, missile-rack, and quantum-drive parents render an indented L-tree of their children below the row.

Usage

Explicit UUID:

{{Entity/Ports|uuid=80ee3b95-5665-4548-9e2d-d2067895c0ac}}

When Template:Entity has been invoked earlier on the page, the UUID can be omitted. It falls back to the value stored in SMW on the current page:

{{Entity}}

== Ports ==
{{Entity/Ports}}

Parameters

Renders an entity's port loadout as a vertical stack of collapsible category cards. Works for both items and vehicles. Reads upstream API data via Module:Entity/Data and shares cache with the Entity infobox and other Entity-family templates on the page.

Sablonparaméterek

Ennek a sablonnak ajánlott egy sorba írni a paramétereit.

Paraméter		Leírás	Típus	Állapot
UUID	uuid	UUID of the entity to render. If omitted, defaults to the UUID stored in SMW (set by Template:Entity on a prior parse). Required if Template:Entity hasn't been invoked. Példa 80ee3b95-5665-4548-9e2d-d2067895c0ac	Karakterlánc	nem kötelező

Behavior

• Renders one Module:CollapsibleCard per category, sorted by an ordering defined in Module:Entity/Ports/categories.json (Weapons before Turrets before Coolers, and so on). Primary categories open by default.
• Sibling ports with identical loadouts collapse into one aggregated row with a count prefix (04×, 13×). Mixed loadouts naturally produce multiple separate rows. M4A-style attachment ports (BAR, MEC, POW, VEN) stay distinct because they accept different sub_types.
• Size pills show the equipped item's size when something is installed, falling back to the port's accepted range when empty (e.g. S1–5 for a flex fuel mount).
• Parent ports whose category opts into expansion render an indented L-tree of their children: turrets expose their mounted gun, missile racks expose their missiles, quantum drives expose their jump drive.
• Engine, cockpit, and animation hardpoints (Controllers, Crew Stations, Doors & Hatches, Thrusters, Fuel, and so on) collapse into a single closed-by-default Other card at the bottom of the stack, sub-grouped by their original category label so the reader can still see what's where.
• Hardware-locked ports get a diagonal stripe overlay on their size pill.
