Hello! As you may remember, a while ago I mentioned that I was working on a new format for recording transcripts.
The new format will (hopefully) be more intuitive. The text looks like this:
++ A particular location
Cayde-6: Great one liner.
** An action
Ikora: Clever comeback.
Zavala: Serious statement.
** Eris Morn arrives
Eris Morn: Spooky description.
Cayde-6: Sarcastic reference.
// OPTIONAL {
** Another action
}
// OPTIONAL {
Zavala: New instruction.
Ghost: Lighthearted remark.
}
And it will end up looking something like this on the Archive:
There is still some work to be done, but I think it would be good to make sure we use this new format for any Destiny 2 transcripts, so I’m going to update all of the documentation to use the new format.
Please let me know what you think!

First things first… Im gonna need to print myself a crib sheet to remember all this
Prints crib sheet.
I like it a lot. And in all honesty, its probably not going to be that difficult to use. What about linking objects and references? ie
CAYDE-6 DEFEATS THREE CABAL WITH HIS GOLDEN GUN
or
GUARDIAN ARRIVES AT THE TOWER PLAZA WHERE ZAVALA IS DEFENDING AGAINST RED LEGION
Anyway, I like it a lot better. It should break up the huge walls of txt that these transcripts produce and make it clearer

Links inside transcripts is a great idea, but it’s not possible right now. I am working on that!
