Template:Strange rank name

Template documentation [view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template returns the correct (language-translated and killcount-accurate) strange rank name. For example, a rocket launcher with 750 kills is 'Positively Inhumane'. This is primarily used for {{Backpack item}}.

Pages which misuse this template will be placed into Category:Strange rank name ERROR.

Usage

As this is primarily intended for use with backpack item, it doesn't have complex paramaters.

• rankson - The primary switched value, indicates what action causes the strange item to rank up. For example, sappers rank up on buildings sapped.
• item-name - As a fall-back, when rankson is not provided, we can look up the ranking action for a few known items.
• kills - Required, this is used to pick the correct prefix name, as many items have different rank-up thresholds.
