This page aims to act as a collection of various technical info on the game, bits useful to various people depending on what you aim to achieve by looking at this.
Reading this page implies at least a moderate to advanced understanding to the game's mechanics and the game in general, and thus no hyperlinks will be provided unless necessary. This page will mostly be useful to modders, however some may also be useful for achievement hunters, story hunters, or those who want to know more about how the game works. This page may go through various revisions, end up becoming a page to link to other, smaller technical pages, or both.
