Hard cut or above[edit]

I really like either the hard cut of the above version, with the above version being probably the closest to the ingame menu. ~Sime 14:57, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

I agree, they're both really great although I prefer the hard cut version slightly more for displaying the mail on the wiki. --BuffsEverywhere (talk) 23:24, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
Hard cut is the one for me. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 23:29, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
I haven't found the infinity background yet, the repeatable hearts I did are showing the default background. Any idea if this is used anywhere?
I uploaded File:Renown Heart completion (cropped).png and added an example. --Tolkyria (talk) 15:22, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
Looks great. What is the new template going to be called, "Heart completion message"? -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 19:12, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
Sure, sounds good. Probably more fitting than the existing naming scheme from the template legendary unlock text, there's always the possiblity to go for our common suffix term description.
Honestly, I didn't want to take over so much, I just saw the opportunity to create a fancy template by using in-game images (based on my experience with the legendary unlock overlay). Please feel free to take over again. --Tolkyria (talk) 22:14, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
In my opinion the template should display the xp value. Even though it's not shown in the ingame mail, it is nevertheless a reward for completing the heart and should be displayed here.
Also I suggest renaming the "subject" parameter to "title". --BuffsEverywhere (talk) 09:07, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
It's your sandbox, do it! If you also agree on my cropped image, then I suggest to remove all other variants and focus on getting everything right (e.g. your parameter name suggestion, text format, icons). --Tolkyria (talk) 10:07, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
Makes sense to display the xp, but we should somehow place them in a consistent order, currently the in-game message order is 1. coins, 2. karma and the heart infobox is 1. xp, 2. karma, 3. coins.
Maybe the order 1. coins, 2. karma, 3. xp does the job, matching in-game order and displaying additional relevant information. --Tolkyria (talk) 10:07, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
Updated the heart infobox order on Template:Heart rewards per suggestion.
Replicated this sandbox to Template:Heart completion message (except using cropped file, and a few other changes diff) - a trial is live on Use a skimmer to help with training around the ranch.
Realised the mail template should use the same width - could have reduced the new template to 425px, but I've modified the mail template to 500px for the moment.
Feel free to adapt the template further - if we don't make any further changes/there's no comments needed to be addressed, I will roll this out to the renown heart pages on Saturday. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 18:31, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
Looks great! For consistency I prefer having one universal box size, currently 500px used by the templates mail, legendary unlock text and now heart completion message. --Tolkyria (talk) 19:23, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
Edit: Oh, you adjusted the mail template today, I guess the old mail width of 425px was "exactly" replicating the in-game line breaks, also setting the heart completion message or legendary unlock text to 425px (with the current padding of 2.5em on each side) would do so. --Tolkyria (talk) 19:43, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
