==Achievement System Overview==
==Achievement Categories==
Player achievements are OOC accolades awarded by the command staves of participating ships to their players. They are also used to track progress towards promotion.
{{Player Achievements}}
Player achievements are divided into four categories. Click on a category to see all the achievements in that category:
*'''{{s|Player achievements|Tour of Duty}} Achievements'''
**These achievements are required before advancement to the next rank.
*'''{{s|Player achievements|General}} Achievements'''
**These achievements are optional and are not required for promotion. They are given for IC and OOC challenges not specific to a particular duty post or character interaction.
*'''{{s|Player achievements|Mission and Location}} Achievements'''
**These achievements are optional and are not required for promotion. They are given for IC and OOC challenges specific to a mission or location dependent on ship operating area.
*'''{{s|Player achievements|Duty Post}} Achievements'''
**These achievements are optional and are not required for promotion. They are given for players that utilize qualities of a particular duty post.
*'''{{s|Player achievements|Character Interaction}} Achievements'''
**These achievements are optional and are not required for promotion. They are awarded for interactions with specific characters and created by those characters' writers. Once you have reached the rank of lieutenant JG, you can create your own achievements that other players can earn from your character and submit them to the command crew to be added here.


Achievements are '''self-reported''' by players themselves to their respective command staff. If a player believes they have earned an achievement, they should notify their command staff by email and include the link to the supporting sim or documentation. Player achievements are tracked on a spreadsheet/leaderboard so that players can keep track of achievements they have earned.
==Displaying Achievements==
Each player achievement is awarded with an icon. They can be displayed wherever the player would like, such as on his/her user page, character’s bio, or forum signature. All icons are made by [http://www.freepik.com/ Freepik] from [http://www.flaticon.com  www.flaticon.com].
 
To easily display a player achievement on the wiki, use the PA template by simply writing:
<nowiki>{{PA|Name of the Achievement}}</nowiki>

Player achievements are OOC accolades awarded by the command staves of participating ships to their players for completing IC or OOC objectives and challenges. They are also used to track progress towards promotion.

Achievements are self-reported by players themselves to their respective command staff. If a player believes they have earned an achievement, they should notify their command staff by email and include the link to the supporting sim or documentation. Player achievements are tracked on a spreadsheet/leaderboard so that players can keep track of achievements they have earned.

History and Implementation

First developed and introduced for the USS Invicta by Rich (Roshanara Rahman) and Deliera (Tristam Core) in 2016, the original Player Achievement system has been implemented by the following ships:

In addition, the following two ships have developed their own set of player achievements:

The rest of the information on this page is for the achievement system in use aboard Amity Outpost, USS Arrow, USS Chin'toka, USS Oumuamua. For more information about the system used on USS Constitution-B, check out the Constitution Player Achievements page. For the system used on USS Artemis-A and USS Gorkon, check out the Alternate Tour of Duty Player Achievements page.

You can add achievements to the Wiki for your character or ship by following these steps:


Finding and Uploading an Image

  • Find an image via Flaticon/Freepik. Choose a monocolor image, if possible.
  • Download the PNG in 512 pixels.
  • Go to Upload file and upload your image.
  • In order for the image to appear when using in the Player Achievement rack, you need to specify the name like so:
Player Achievement-You want flies with that?.png
  • Make sure to add the following as the comment:
 Icon made by [http://www.freepik.com/ Freepik] from [http://www.flaticon.com  www.flaticon.com] [[Category:Player Achievements]]
  • Save it and make sure all the above is correctly applied. If you goof on the file name, it can be moved.


Adding the achievement to the ship/character/category above

Once you've got your achievement on the wiki, you'll need to add it into the racks above.

  • If you are adding the achievement to an existing menu (e.g. Mission Related) copy and paste the below code into the menu and edit as required.
|{{PA|You want flies with that?}}
|Dined on some tasty Ferengi grubs.
  • If you are adding a new menu for your character, copy and paste the below code under the ship the character is assigned to and edit as required.
{|
|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="T'Pot" data-collapsetext="Hide table"|
{|class=wikitable width=700
!width=100|Achievement Name
!Achievement Description
|-
!colspan=2|[[T'Pot]]
|-
|{{PA|You want flies with that?}}
|Dined on some tasty Ferengi grubs.

|}
  • Check it over and then save it.
