-=== !ClearGameFlags() ===
+=== `GameFlags` ===
+
+==== !ClearGameFlags() ====
Disables *all* !GameFlags
-=== !DisableGameFlags(gameflag, ...) ===
+==== !DisableGameFlags(gameflag, ...) ====
Disables the listed !GameFlags, without changing the status of other !GameFlags
-=== !EnableGameFlags(gameflag, ...) ===
+==== !EnableGameFlags(gameflag, ...) ====
Enables the listed !GameFlags, without changing the status of other !GameFlags
-=== !GetGameFlag(gameflag) ===
+==== !GetGameFlag(gameflag) ====
Returns true if the specified gameflag is enabled, otherwise false
-=== !EndGame() ===
+=== Environment ===
+
+==== !SetGravity(percent) ====
+
+Changes the current gravity of the game in percent (relative to default, integer value).
+Setting it to 100 will set gravity to default gravity of hedgewars, 200 will double it, etc.
+
+
+==== !GetGravity() ====
+
+Returns the current gravity in percent
+
+
+==== !SetWaterLine(waterline) ====
+
+Sets the water level to the specified y-coordinate
+
+
+==== !SetWind(windSpeed) ====
+
+Sets the current wind in the range of -100 to 100. Use together with gfDisableWind for full control.
+
+
+==== !EndGame() ====
Makes the game end.
+=== Map ===
+==== !MapHasBorder() ====
+
+Returns true/false if the map has a border or not.
+
+
+==== !TestRectForObstacle(x1, y1, x2, y2, landOnly) (0.9.16) ====
+Checks the rectangle between the given coordinates for possible collisions. set landOnly to true if you don't want to check for collisions with gears (hedgehogs, etc.)
+
+
+==== !PlaceGirder(x, y, state) (0.9.16) ====
+
+Places a girder with centre points x, y and the chosen state.
+These are the accepted states:
+ * 0: short, horizontal
+ * 1: short, decreasing right
+ * 2: short, vertical
+ * 3: short, increasing right
+ * 4: long, horizontal
+ * 5: long, decreasing right
+ * 6: long, vertical
+ * 7: long, increasing right

+
+=== Current hedgehog ===
+
+==== !GetCurAmmoType() (0.9.16) ====
+
+Returns the currently selected [AmmoTypes Ammo Type].
+
+
+==== !SwitchHog(gearUid) (0.9.16) ====
+
+This function will switch to the hedgehog with the specified Uid.
+
+==== !SetInputMask(mask) ====
+
+Masks specified player input.
+
+Example:
+ -- masks the long and high jump commands
+SetInputMask(band(0xFFFFFFFF, bnot(gmLJump + gmHJump)))
+ -- clears input mask, allowing player to take actions
+ SetInputMask(0xFFFFFFFF)
+
+Note: Using the input mask is an effective way to script uninterrupted cinematics, or create modes such as No Jumping.
+
+
+=== Randomness ===
+==== !GetRandom(number) ====
+
+Returns a randomly generated number in the range of 0 to number - 1. This random number uses the game seed, so is synchronised, and thus safe for multiplayer and saved games. Use GetRandom for anything that could impact the engine state. For example, a visual gear can use the Lua random, but adding a regular gear should use GetRandom.
+
+
+=== Clans ===
+==== !GetClanColor(clan) ====
+
+Returns the colour of the chosen clan by its number.
+
+==== !SetClanColor(clan, color) ====
+
+Sets the colour of the chosen clan by its number.
