it's pretty unusable.. i'm serious .. sorry :/
especially it should be structured in a reasonable way .. maybe some kind of virtual sandbox where you can just put something together, seeing what goes in where...
and the descriptions are not always too comprehensive

btw: the force: "not-self" property seems to prevent harm to the shooting entity (tank).. its a bit confusing that it's under force but i'm actually glad i found a property that does this...
edit: i misinterpreted my testing results, force = "not-self" works as it sounds, not damaging entities of the same force, my damage came from a different source. sad. guess we need another flag to prevent self-harm them.

There is no documentation for triggers in the lua-api page. So, any documentation that exists is going to be on the wiki.

As far as I know, the wiki is just "these are the properties" and there is no "documentation". There is no "documentation" for prototype properties anywhere - just listings of properties in what something has (if the wiki has it).

Turns out, I was wrong about everything I said. Some of the other team members have written documentation about the triggers for the Lua API and have written some documentation about prototypes on the wiki.

Hey, which documentation do you mean? Wiki/lua-api.factorio.com both somewhat document it. What exactly are the problems and what would you suggest to improve the documentation?

there are just too many sub-articles...

What would you suggest to improve the page?
