Several of our mainline campaigns are in the works for upgrades at the moment, which includes adding characters and enhancing existing scenarios. We are looking for more artwork to supplement these upgrades, including the following:
This lists removed WML functionality and helpful hints for avoiding pitfalls.
A similar thread for changes before 1.16 can be found here .
Compatibility breaking (requires updates to work)
no longer sets the heal_amount variable, instead supporting the variable attribute. This variable will be...
We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
I've caved in and started playing around with WML, and have sketchily implemented three scenarios of a campaign; I'm still very new to the markup, but it seems straightforward enough. There's one issue which completely confuses me, however.
When playing through the campaign, Wesnoth crashes at the...
I have recently been going over my unit.cfgs in my campaign, and have noticed that some of the file names after a image= are in brackets (mostly the female versions), and some aren't.
I can't find anything in the wiki about this after a quick search. So I want to know what effect this has....
In Win I was just using WordPad until I started receiving errors that referenced line numbers. Now I switched to a text editor called HAPedit that I use for PHP simply because it'll show the line numbers. It doesn't do anything else for it, but that's enough.
I want to know whether or not it is possible to use WML to store a sides units(other than the leader) into variables, then set those units as options in a menu. The main problem I have with this is getting the number of units a side has, and then having the menu list the units.
These are for an Undead campaign that I'm working on. I'm also quite the newbie so mass excuses for my ignorance and inability.
#1. Is it possible to change combat sides mid scenario? I'd like to give the option to turn against your master. Would I be able to do that mid-scenario or should I just...
I think there is no way to find out if you can divide a variable and a number without fraction stuff comes out.
I invented a macro for this. I don´t know sure if it would work.. :?
:wink:
Hey, is it possible to change a unit type mid-campaign?
As in, unit x was a frog in the first few campaigns, and then in the start of the next scenario gets kissed by a girl or sth and then changes into a prince.
I want him to keep the xp he had as a frog. Is that doable?
It looks to me like the only ways to make a unit switch to one of its s are either to have an give it to the unit, or store the unit and set $temp.variation equal to the name of the variation. I have elected to do the latter, since was acting funny. So...
I'm putting together a scenario for my boy with his maps in it.
I've started with the generic campaign on the campaign server and have modified that. I thought I'd followed all the instructions, but must have missed something: when I try to run it I get 'The game could not be loaded:...
I had this idea for my faction that there would be an unit that starts as a level 0 Small Tsesk, levels normally to level 1 Tsesk, after which when it amlas it produces a Small Tsesk on a nearby open hex. (The justification is that the critter in question breeds by division.)
Hello, I'm new to scenario coding, and I can't understand what's wrong with the beginning of the one I wrote
it keeps telling me that there's something that isn't closed, and tells me the line, but I don't see any error (given what I foud on how to code a scenario on the wesnoth site), and when I...
My apoligies if this problem has already been addressed, but I've been having problems with sighted events while I've been testing v1.1.1.
I often had problem with these types of events not firing, moveto events were might more dependable. I noticed that a format for sighted events has changed in...
I'm going through and updating my custom unit files to be compatable for 1.1.1+. I'm just fixing the things I have noticed have changed in the unit WML pages. Here's what I've found:
change long to ranged
change short to melee
change image_defensive to tag
change ability= to tag
I've read a couple of topic, and i will probably seems quite basic, near all this complex and specific questions.
I try to test some very simple and ... it doen't work at all !!! My test with start and prestart event are OK (so, my too) but all the event based on turns are not OK...
In a scenario, i wanted to scroll to a given area of the map to show something.
I tried with , but since the hex was out of sight, it didn't scroll at all :cry: , i don't know if it is a bug or a feature.
Does anybody knows a way to do this, if it is possible ?
My Campaign is growing nice but slow. Now i encountered a problem which goes way beyond my skills. In the scenario the player should search for a hidden item.
What i want to do is: In a prestart event i want to set the location for an object with random x,y coordinates. These coordinates...
1. How do you create a side without a homebase? In my starting scenario i want the party to be chased by seacreatures. A castle in the middle of the sea seems a little displaced to me.
2. I cant get the event name=die to work properly. All units die silent.
I'd like to have a glowing pearl that gives illuminates to the unit that picks it up.
According to the Wiki, though, apply_to can only take the values new_attack, attack, hitpoints, movement, max_experience, loyal and status. No mention of ability . Is the Wiki accurate, or am I missing something?
I've been reading . It's a good pointer but I still need to know how to place an item (given and custom) and put labels on the map.
Can you give me an example that extends the one in the WIKI page? Say I want to place a holy potion somewhere on the map and place a label next to another...
I'm attemtping to create a side 2 leader that simply sits there until your hero moves next to him, at which point they will talk. The problem I am having is that the side 2 leader keeps wandering off. In the side 2 tag I have the following:
which I think is the correct code? I wonder if the fact...
I just startet to creat a campaign, but i got some problems. I see my campaign and can start it, also i can choose the difficulty settings. Next thing i see is the endscreen.
Ok, here is what i got:
wesnoth/data/campaigns/kilian.cfg #the campaignfile
So, you make a scenario. And you put there some carefully constructed secrets, hidden doors, hidden bonuses, puzzle. You want players to find them, to be surprised. But instead they look into WML files and find everything. And you would like to stop that. What can you do?
