The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

I live in France, and I hear news from Hungary almost every day - not that it makes big headlines that often if mainstream media, but I have more than a passing interest in international affairs. I don't really know how much it affects the daily lives of Hungarian people, but I do know it's a seriou...

Britannia . Very simple to learn, yet so rich I could play it for ages. One thing I really like: although combat resolution uses dice, luck is never a real factor in the outcome. I never played Britannia, but one thing that put me off, reading about it, is the scoring for attacking "historic&q...

W + Y + Z <= 9
Since Z = W - 5 and W = Y + 1, we can substitute W and Y in the above --
(Z + 5) + (Z + 4) + Z <= 9
So
3Z + 9 <= 9 (i.e., Z <= 0 so Z = 0, and the rest follows.)
QED, in about 10 seconds.

The resistance-increasing belt you can buy in a shop (can't remember the scenario's name, except it was early in the campaign) doesn't seem to work (?). I had Trantel buy it but his resistances were unchanged (I checked with debug/inspect.) At a point, Dendrian may ask for a 'megaweapon' (as a rewar...

In 1.8.6, game crashes at the beginning of 'Back in business' when you meet the first orc (game_error: unknown unit type: Orcish Spearman.) I found the campaign rather fun to play so far.

Unless it's water (and unless you're not up against nagas or tritons of course )

Seems that the EXITOPTION definition is gone, as you can't leave shops anymore. Makes further testing rather problematic

The only 'bug' I noticed is just a cosmetic oversight: the new buy/sell options don't display {GOOD} in bold, as the previous ones do.

You might try something like this: #define WEAPONS_WITH_ANIM NAME RANGE VARIABLE TYPE DAMAGE STRIKES PRICE PICTUREPATH REQUIREMENT NUMBER ANIMATION [option] message= _ {MENU_IMG_TXT "{PICTUREPATH}" "Buy a {NAME} for {PRICE} ({DAMAGE}/{STRIKES}). Requires {REQUIREMENT} {NUMBER}!"}...

Wow, thanks again for the great bug list Hehe. Actually there was more than that, but this is all I could remember at the moment. Among the bugs I missed - o the Worker starts with extra endurance (can chop wood for 5 exhaustion points instead of 10), but he loses this bonus after visiting Capital ...

Legacy 0.71 beta, BfW 1.8.6 - played a bit, found these bugs: o the Elven Sword you can buy at the Elven capital is actually a ranged weapon. o selling Elven wine in taverns displays the wrong icon (regular wine.) o you can pick up random products when looting crates, but apparently this doesn't upd...

Mine is version 1.8.6, and when I go to Wesnoth, instead of going to data, I have to go to contents/Resources/Data. And when i enter in data, there are no folders named add ons, instead, there is a folder named campaigns, and ai, and core, and gui, hardwired, languages, lua, multiplayer, test, them...

the inspect dialog bypasses lazy-evaluation.

Everything makes sense now. Thanks.

(I'm using 1.8.6) OK, there's something I don't quite understand here. I fire this event from another (I tried both from 'attack' and 'attack end') -- [event] name=attack_aoe first_time_only=no [inspect][/inspect] {DEBUG_MSG "-- WEAPON SPECS -- name=$weapon.name range=$weapon.range type=$weapon...

[effect] simply can't do that. It sounds like a good idea to add support for it though. Great. I can't wait to see this feature implemented. On a slightly related note, is there a way to capture attack data like you do with units, locations, etc.? I'm aware that [attack]'s are not top-level tags as...
