Coordinates of vendors in housing districts

The coordinates for vendors in subdivisions are different than they are in the main division. For example Material Supplier (The Goblet) is listed at 10.9,8.9, which is true for the main division, but the subdivsion one is located at 13.5,10.9. Is there anyway to add this to the relevant Infoboxes? SashenkaKun (talk) 17:17, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

The only way right now would be to add a the following above the "Items for Sale" section. It won't show in vendor tables, though. Technically these are actually different NPCs with identical names and inventory. Freedom4556 (talk) 23:49, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

This:

==Locations==

{{NPC location table header}}

{{NPC location info|The Goblet|10.9,8.9|-}}

{{NPC location info|The Goblet (Subdivision)|13.5,10.9|-}}

|}

Generates this:

Locations

Zone Coordinates Level range
The Goblet (X:10.9, Y:8.9)
The Goblet (Subdivision) (X:13.5, Y:10.9)

Proposal to change the default tick colour to blue

An example of how the proposed blue tick might look in context

In the interests of allowing the check mark to be easily distinguishable from the red cross (0No) by colour-blind people, I'd like to propose that we change the default colour to blue.

Specifically, I'd like to use this image, which I just uploaded: Tick blue.png. It's based on the existing green tick (Tick green.png) but is much more easily distinguished by most colour-blind people.

What are people's thoughts? --Sophira (talk) 09:43, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Note that the mounts table as it currently stands on the Mounts page does *not* use the red cross, unlike in the example screenshot I uploaded. I believe that using the red cross instead of the grey cross would increase visibility in some cases, but it would heavily reduce visibility for most colour-blind people unless the default tick colour was changed, which is part of my motivation for making this proposal. --Sophira (talk) 09:50, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
