The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Hey is this still active? This is awesome! Imperialism 1 and 2 were both fantastic games, and any remake that is half as good would be worth playing.

Wow, that is quite a lot to respond to. First, let me say that I very much appreciate your feedback, although I am disappointed you didn't get a chance to actually play it. I will be making a number of changes that you suggested. I would also like to respond to a few points you make to explain my th...

I would recommend looking at the very last thing you changed, and see if you left out or accidentally deleted an end tag such as [/unit] or [/ability], and also check that you have ended your quotation marks everywhere such as in the _main.cfg file. Little things like that will often stop it from st...

Although it is still early in its development, I am creating this thread because I would really like some feedback on my new era, the Middle Ages, which is currently available on the ad-ons server. The era is intended for maps with multiple castles such as the one included in the era. Please let me ...

You have a [specials] block, but you did not put any correct contents inside it. The [specials] tag goes inside the [attack] tag. It can contain the following tags: [damage]: modifies the damage of a weapon [attacks]: modifies the number of attacks of a weapon ... http://wiki.wesnoth.org/AbilitiesW...

Within a unit, I would like to have an attack effective only on attack, that is, I do not want the unit to use it for a counter-attack. Currently, I am using: [attack] name=ram description=_"ram" icon=attacks/warblade-red.png type=impact range=melee damage=35 number=1 [specials] active_on=...

The era has been updated to version .35 and added to the server! I also slightly buffed the level 0 units becuase they were too weak and expensive, especially considering they have upkeep.

Yes it does! I will post an updated version on the add-on server soon. I am also now working on mercenaries, balancing, and other maps, and eventually I'll have another faction too!

Ahhh, I see the location path had to be completed. What was: message={MENU_IMG_TXT "MA_Axeman.png~RC(magenta>$recruiter.colour)" ("Axeman - 9 Gold")} Should have been: message={MENU_IMG_TXT "units/MA_Axeman.png~RC(magenta>$recruiter.colour)" ("Axeman - 9 Gold"...

Attached above. And thanks again for everyone's help. Feel free to let me know what you think of the era so far, but keep in mind it is still VERY early in development, with just the one faction so far.

Have you specified {add-ons/Middle_ages/images/units} as a binary path in your main.cfg because that could cause this problem. Wrong. The binary path should point to data/add-ons/Middle_ages , then using " units/MA_Woodsman.png " as an image path will automatically be searched in data/add...

On a different note, I would like to create a hit and run style unit or attack, whereby a unit regains some of its movement points after attacking, but is unable to attack again. I tried to find guidance on this and was unable to locate it. Thanks again for your help. [event] name=attack end first_...

I tried that as well. No dice sadly, same result. Is there some file I need to include or identify elsewhere?

As to the threads, fair enough. In any event, I checked the image names, all 5 are correct, but none of them appear. I am using 1.8, so colour wasn't the issue I guess, though that is good to know for the future. Unfortunatly, it still doesn't work, and none of the images are displayed. I am using t...
