Description

The /docs/developer-docs/real-examples/using-add-source-and-deltas-for-collectibles-and-similar-achievements.md file mentions delta ranges but needs a concrete example.

Add:

  • Code example showing delta range implementation
  • Screenshot demonstrating the concept
  • Explanation of why/when to use ranges vs single values
  • Common edge cases to watch for

Current reference:

"...could be changed to <= 0x09 and the total for the second group could be >= 0x05"

Start with docs/developer-docs/real-examples/using-add-source-and-deltas-for-collectibles-and-similar-achievements.md and read the existing discussion of delta ranges and the referenced <= 0x09 and >= 0x05 values. Done means the page contains a concrete implementation example, a screenshot, guidance on ranges versus single values, and common edge cases.
