This is a data module to be used with [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.loadData|mw.loadData]].

To do: write script to generate since there are so many, didn't realize when starting.

==How to generate==
# Edit the module data page and delete everything except the comment at the top and the word <code>return</code> followed by a space.
# Go to the [https://www.torn.com/swagger.php#/Torn/37f1828422f3080da21f9eb4aa576686 API v2 page] and have a Public access key ready.
# Click the "Try it out" button. For ids, select nothing ( <code>--</code> ). The remaining fields need to be blank. Paste in your key and Execute.
# Click the copy button in the response box (not the example below it) and paste into the edit box. Delete the line at the top that starts with "territory".
# At the bottom, in the <code>_metadata</code> object, on the line that says "next", make a note of the value after <code>offset=</code>.
# Delete the whole metadata object as well as the line above it ( <code>],</code> ), then type a comma at the end of the previous line so it looks like this: ( <code>},</code> ) and press Enter to create a new line.
# On the API page, enter the offset value into the offset field and Execute again.
# This time, only copy everything starting below the line at the top that starts with "territory" (so the single <code>{</code> and not the space before it), down to but not including the line that starts with "_metadata". Also do not include the line above it ( <code>],</code> ).
# Paste into the edit box on a new line after the comma you added.
# Repeat the set of five steps before this one until the "next" line in the metadata does not contain a URL (the offset will be around 4000).
# The only line following the last set of data should be a single closing brace ( <code>}</code> ) with no indent.
# Copy the entire contents of the edit box into a text editor and make the following plaintext replacements: <code> </code> (two spaces) -> <code>\t</code> (tab character - how to input depends on editor), <code>[</code> -> <code>{</code>, <code>]</code> -> <code>}</code>, and regular expression replacement: <code>"(territory|id|sector|size|density|slots|respect|coordinates|x|y|neighbors)":</code> -> <code>$1 =</code>, then unindent everything by one level.
# Update the date in the comment at the top and save. Keep a backup copy in your text editor in case it fails.
