Talk:Tile IDs

Split

Why is this page split into many infoboxes with arbitrary number differences? All the other data ID pages just display in full in one table. Kirby Baker (talk) 22:10, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

For performance reasons, I presume. The split was made with an edit summary of "partition Tile IDs into parts to avoid 504 gateway timeout error" (see page history August 2017). This many images and {{item}} transclusions on a single page are probably too much for the servers to handle. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 22:24, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Should the IDs instead be grouped based on update?

It feels like the way it's handled right now is kind of inefficient. If I want to find something specific, I'd want to know what tile ID range it falls in so I can find it quicker on here. However, that isn't very effective, since I'd need to go to the page of what I'm looking for, which might have the tile ID there already. If it doesn't, then I need to compare the tile IDs of other things in it's update. RubberCrowy (talk) 14:47, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
