Talk:Explorer Notes

Creators of the Notes
I'm not comfortable editing this, but when I read it this bugged me. The opening section of this page refers to two of the explorers as "Recipe Gal" and "Dossier Dude". The Dossiers were created by Elimisha, which is a female name (Swahili meaning "teaching knowledge" which I thought was neat when I looked it up); and the recipes were written by "Edmund Rockwell", which is a male name. The genders on the nicknames are backwards. Wouldn't it just be more clear to say something more like "there are key survivors on the ARK, such as the individuals who wrote the dossiers and recipes" and just avoid gendering them altogether? 71.244.136.218 00:00, 10 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Hi, the text in question is an official quote that described the creators of the notes. Until the notes are released and more is known about them, I'd leave it like that. You're right and probably the devs just switched the description there, but maybe it's intended.--Cadaeib (talk) 05:13, 10 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Yeah, if it's errata from an official source I guess it's better to just leave it as is. I wonder where the disconnect was, though. 71.244.136.218 15:05, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Helena #30
Helena #30 is not where this wiki says. Someone should write "unknown position" or write the correct location.--62.43.148.105 19:09, 29 August 2017 (UTC)


 * I've replaced Helena 30 and Rockwell 29 with ?. Thanks for the tip. -- Mr Pie 5  (talk) 19:43, 29 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Position data are correct, you need to change your altitude to find them. --Flachdachs (talk) 22:25, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

Lava Cave/South East Cave.
I feel something should be done about the fact that the South East Cave/Lava Cave is given 2 names. This can be confusing, especially here considering it is written as South East Cave on the Dossiers and Rockwell record, while the HLNA Discovery calls it the Lava Cave. Same about the Cave Map calling it the South East Cave, while the page for it calls it Lava Cave. Dran_&#95;_&#95;_ (talk) 22:28, 8 March 2021 (UTC)


 * I did some of the unification work, but explorer notes themselves won't be modified as they're meant to be kept intact, straight from the game. Alexrmski (talk) 07:33, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

HLNA notes are broken
I,m new here so i don,t know how to do something like this but at least half of the HLN-A notes will not play audio Slick604 (talk) 18:53, 9 March 2021 (UTC)


 * You mean nothing happens when you try to play a note audio here on the wiki? What browser and operating system do you use? Alexrmski (talk) 19:47, 9 March 2021 (UTC)


 * OK so either its been fixed or it was a glitch it just said 0:00/ 0:00 on the play time and i also use firefox Slick604 (talk) 20:33, 9 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Ah, glad it's fixed for you. I see the same thing now (using Firefox as well), but I wouldn't call it exactly broken. Some notes show the duration, some don't (stuck at 0:00/0:00) but it looks like they need a few secs to load for some reason, and once one starts to chatter the others do too. Viewing the audio directly in a new tab is instantaneous. Not sure why this is happening, but thanks for the report. Alexrmski (talk) 22:06, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
