Research direction

The payload names no files or endpoints, so start by finding where the existing ship fields are exposed in the PHP API and reading the four comments to learn whether the data source for these values is settled. The request lists four fields: trailer URL, original pledge price, current Warbond price, and initial release patch. Done means each one appears in the API response with a clear source, and the thread has agreed on where that data comes from.

Description

enhancement

Hello,

I think adding a few additional fields would make the SC Wiki API even more complete and useful:

  • Trailer URL – The official trailer URL for the ship
  • Original Pledge Price – The ship’s original pledge price when it was first introduced
  • Current Warbond Price – The current Warbond price, separate from the regular store-credit price
  • Initial Release Patch – The patch version in which the ship was first added to the game

These fields would provide some useful historical and pricing context and make the API even more valuable for applications and projects built on top of it.

Thanks for maintaining the API!
