In the LSL documentation we don't have a section for Misfeatures because it makes people uncomfortable; they don't want to use features that are tagged as misfeatures, lumping misfeatures and bugs together only heightens their unwillingness to use it. We have two sections that fill this niche, Bugs and Caveats. If there is some misfeature we put it in the Notes section. That said, the LSL Constants template is currently in a state of flux, there are several tasks on the TODO list for it such as a box for Bugs, Caveats, Newbie Notes and Notes.

Strife, I don't quite grok the wiki template features and was having trouble adding the comment I wanted to make to the right section.  Please feel free to move it to whatever section you want.  It was a bug and is now a misfeature. -- [[User:Andrew_Linden|Andrew Linden]] 2008.04.17 21:45

VEHICLE_FLAG_HOVER_UP_ONLY

Your addition to VEHICLE_FLAG_HOVER_UP_ONLY makes me uneasy, specifically the section title. Could you please qualify if it is a Bug or a Misfeature?

In the LSL documentation we don't have a section for Misfeatures because it makes people uncomfortable; they don't want to use features that are tagged as misfeatures, lumping misfeatures and bugs together only heightens their unwillingness to use it. We have two sections that fill this niche, Bugs and Caveats. If there is some misfeature we put it in the Notes section. That said, the LSL Constants template is currently in a state of flux, there are several tasks on the TODO list for it such as a box for Bugs, Caveats, Newbie Notes and Notes. -- Strife Onizuka 18:03, 17 April 2008 (PDT)
