:: Do you mean the ASCII tile and color? I thought of that but I don't think its possible to automatically figure out what tile and color it would be. You'd still have to enter that info as an argument to the template. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 06:27, 15 June 2013 (CEST)

:: Well it looks like CommanderC made [[Template:Glyph]] that will automatically include the ASCII if there is a glyph template for each monster, such as [[Template:Adder/Glyph]] which gives {{Template:Adder/Glyph}}. Do you think we should really make a glyph template for each monster? Maybe CommanderC can automate all these template creations. --[[User:Flun|Flun]] 15:23, 15 June 2013 (CEST)

This should be useful for those lists with pictures, but I don't think we should use them for monster links within sentences or paragraphs. --Flun 22:30, 14 June 2013 (CEST)

Would it be feasible to also include an individual creature's glyph for those people who don't play tiles? Seems like that would take a lot of coding, though... --spudwalt 23:20, 14 June 2013 (CEST)

Well it looks like CommanderC made Template:Glyph that will automatically include the ASCII if there is a glyph template for each monster, such as Template:Adder/Glyph which gives S and using {{Glyph|Adder}} you get S. Then using {{monsterlink|Adder}} gives you S Adder.png Adder
