Revision as of 18:24, 7 January 2025 by Cstubbs (talk | contribs)

This documentation provides an overview of how to create a wiki profile for your hacky racer.

Creating a page

Create your page by navigating to: http://hackyracers.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Your Racer Name. Check the title of the page is exactly how you want your racer name to appear, it is case sensitive, and might be quite painful to change. For more info, see here: [1] Click "create this page".

Adding content

For the purposes of this documentation, we will use "create source" or "edit source" at the top of the page. The inline editor mostly works for text, but gets confused with anything more complicated.

Infobox

This "template" will create a standard "Racer" infobox at the top right of your profile. These are uniform across all Racer profiles, and should be the fist thing in your source.

It should be called in the following format:

{{Racer
|ProfilePic=Cybr trk profile.jpg
|BuiltBy=Chris Stubbs and Dom Tag
|Theme=Tesla Cybertruck
|FirstRace=EMF 2022
|CurrentStatus=Active
|Motor=4x Hoverboard 6.5″ Hub Motors
|ESC=2x Hoverboard PCB
|Battery=48V 12S3P Li-Ion (2x 6S)
|Transmission=Direct hub motor / 62:3 5mm chain reduction / xxx diff etc...
|Contact=@emfroamer (optional)
}}

The Profile field should be the filename of whatever you uploaded. Upload a file here: Special:Upload. Use a sensible resolution as we have limited storage. Or use Placeholder.jpg The other fields are free text and you can write whatever you like.

For more information see Template:Racer

General Fomatting

==Headings get smaller==
===The more equals signs===
====You add!====

Links within the wiki look like [[CYBR_TRK]] - CYBR_TRK. External links look like [https://www.google.com/ Google] - Google.

Each section ends with {{clear}} to prevent images/sections overlapping.


Background

Give some background on the theme or history of your racer.

==Background==
[[File:LEtsGO_BakingTrays.jpeg|thumb|left]]
Theme is to look like Lego blocks. It uses baking trays sprayed in various bright coloured car paints

It takes the 2022 Hacky Racer, Jeepney, and re-themes and improves on that basic design

Build details

Explain a little about your construction materials and methods. Some prompts are given below, but replace them with whatever is relavant. If you want to refer to a build guide on another website, just create one heading with a link.

==Construction==
How is the chassis constructed?

Steering? Geometry?

Where are your wheels, tyres, hubs, axles from?

How do your brakes work?
