Template talk:Smithing

Hello,

I’ve noticed that this template incorrectly displays some resin-trimmed armor pieces

For example, netherite boots are displayed as a leather tunic, though the tooltip still says “netherite boots”.

This also affects the leather tunic, leather cap and leather pants.

If you know how, please fix it.

I don't think the problem is with the template itself, I think the template isn't being used correctly. I got the template from the Smithing page to work properly in my sandbox after making a few changes. I'll try to fix the templates on the other pages, too. The way the resin trim was added to the Smithing template on the page caused the cycle to be thrown off, which made it produce nonsensical outputs. Rampage455 (talk) 18:49, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Update: I was somewhat mistaken. The Smithing template I looked at first was configured incorrectly and I thought that was the problem, but when checking the other templates, I noticed the specific problem with the leather items. I think the problem is that some of the item sprite image files listed in {{InvSprite}} have the wrong file names. For example, File:Invicon Resin Trim Leather Pants.png is actually an image of a resin trim netherite helmet. These files will need to be renamed. Rampage455 (talk) 23:29, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Currently Template:Smithing does not support showing any Armor trim type in the tool-tip, instead showing a generic "Armor Trim" description.

Without trim name (current);

The section to display the Trimmed Armor icon looks like this;

|Amethyst Trim Netherite Helmet; Copper Trim Iron Chestplate; Diamond Trim Golden Leggings; Emerald Trim Diamond Boots; Gold Trim Chainmail Chestplate; Iron Trim Leather Pants; Lapis Trim Turtle Shell; Quartz Trim Netherite Helmet; Netherite Trim Iron Chestplate; Redstone Trim Golden Leggings; Diamond Trim Diamond Boots; Emerald Trim Chainmail Chestplate; Lapis Trim Leather Pants; Redstone Trim Turtle Shell

This does not match how the item is displayed in-game. One can however use wiki formatting to display them correctly.

With trim name;

Problem is, the code balloons a lot, looks cumbersome and is a slog to manually recreate all the tool-tips.

I suggest modifying the template so it looks at the first slot to detect what type of template it's displaying, and applying its name to the tool-tip of the finished item, that way it can also work when it displays Any Armor Trim Smithing Template as seen in Smithing_Template#Usage. If such isn't possible, then some field that can be specified.
