question 1:
do WFL work like a variable value?

Re: my wml questions thread
You also need to put these formulas in quotes so the "+" will add the numbers. (In normal WML, the "+" concatenates two strings.) It should look like:
In the future, you would do better to explain what you want your code to do, and what it's actually doing. That's because, in this case, the answer to your question is "yes".
value="$($turns_from_show + 2)"

Re: my wml questions thread
Why are you trying to use a version of Python that ancient? Its last release was in 2014
You must update both your Wesnoth version (1.17.5 is ten development releases ago, considering that 1.17.15 was tagged today) and your Python version to at least 3.8 (which is the maximum version available on Windows 7), then everything will work correctly.
EDIT: In your reports I see that your version of Python isn't 3.2 as you stated, but 3.1. That's even more ancient, since it last release was in 2012.

Thank you. We'll, after years with my windows7, that was the last call before being convinced that it is time to stop updating the os indirectly (kb files ect ect) and migrate to windows 11.Elvish_Hunter wrote: ↑April 16th, 2023, 3:40 pm Why are you trying to use a version of Python that ancient?

Now, it works although my PC became of course hyper slow (normal since it is 4gb ram)
