Node Documentation Begins with the Player's Questions

The node model was finalized, and A-Zhen had moved to help with node software, but ordinary players still lacked instructions they could follow step by step. The week devoted to writing node documentation began with a clear goal: ordinary players should be able to understand it. The writing task shifted from collecting design material to checking whether a player could make sense of it.

The node model was finalized, and A-Zhen had moved to help with node software, but ordinary players still lacked instructions they could follow step by step. The team's challenge was to turn internal terminology into practical guidance.

The week devoted to writing node documentation began with a clear goal: ordinary players should be able to understand it. A-Zhen proposed organizing the steps from a player's first encounter with the installation guide. Someone worried that simplifying the text would hide technical requirements. She decided to keep necessary requirements in the main text and explain easily misunderstood terms separately.

The writing task shifted from collecting design material to checking whether a player could make sense of it. Technical detail and readability both mattered. A-Zhen would next apply that approach to the installation flow; whether the documentation would actually help newcomers finish installing remained to be seen.
