Re: Gathering information about Scepter of Fire Campaign
I also agree that not all of the main characters need accents/dialect. It would be okay to give some of them differing accents because dwarves are explicitly shown to be somewhat clan based and so it's not unreasonable to think different clans would talk a bit differently. I don't know what kind of ...

Re: Mainlining popular UMC tracks
I need to go back and look at some of these, but I don't remember all being suitable for mainline. There's some that would work, perhaps we could include them in campaigns. We also would need to check licensing too.

Re: Project of flexible svg map of Irdya
You only need to look at the mainline canon map for consistency's sake. We've purposely left the rest of Irdya blank to allow UMC creators to imagine their own worlds that might work with or coincide with what's in mainline. As far as province names, you could stick to traditional English or Welsh i...

Re: Volunteering to spruce up the dialogue in one particular campaign
Send me a script for the first couple scenarios, I'll take a look. Are there any revisions to the Alduin dialogue that are currently work-in-progress? I ask because I'm wondering writing a PR changing Delfador's reasoning to say that the ship needs to be resupplied with food before sailing back to ...

Re: Balance changes for 1.18
For SP I am willing to approve these changes as is. Generally speaking I still think Rebel and Loy campaigns will get easier (but not by an enormous margin) but I want to see the unit diversity come in from the Loy patch especially. Horseman isn't a big issue because as a faction we finally will pro...

Re: Balance changes for 1.18
We really need to start introducing variable recall costs. Most of this stems from the fact players can pull in L2/L3/L4 units at the same 20 gold flat rate. I agree but also the army "level 3 cap" is still relevant because unless we give AMLAs (which are their own can of worms and I want...

Re: Balance changes for 1.18
The thing is though, those saurian archer concepts all branch (far) off the saurian skirmisher (like the ambusher) while dropping the skirmisher ability itself. None of them offers a decent ranged attack + skirmisher ability. Leaving that role open for the ambusher to fill. They would also seem a l...

Re: Balance changes for 1.18
So from the SP side, here's my thoughts. Drakes: good changes Saurians: I don't think changing ambusher to have 3 ranged strikes or stronger ranged is good because it's a melee class unit so I don't think we should change the class to be more mixed fighter. Plus, we probably will be adding ranged sa...

Re: [mainline] there is a need for a en_US translation
Yes there's some small issues on the dev side with forgetting to update the WML file when necessary but on the flip side this would be really useful for me. I've actually hesitated to add more "flavor" to the text in some areas like Liberty because I was worried people would be completely ...

Re: Project direction ideas moving forward
From name: It would open up quite a lot of game play opportunities if support for real ranged attacks gets implemented over the next development cycle. The feature was being worked on, but progress seems to have stalled: https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth/pull/4859 And as a general comment, I think ...

Re: Project direction ideas moving forward
@inferno8 Glad to see we're mostly on the same page. ^_^ I would like to throw in this thought as well. Our primary goal is (or imo should be) attracting more players and retaining them, as we said above. However, at present I don't think that offering easier ways to mod content or more modding feat...

Re: Project direction ideas moving forward
Replying to the ones that I can: [1] The starting point for this would be: a) deciding exactly what the new UI would look like b) detailed descriptions defining what all needs to change with the current implementation in order to be able to accomplish (a). Both (a) and (b) would largely rely on vult...

Project direction ideas moving forward
Hi all, I'm opening this thread to track/discuss ideas for some ideas for overall project direction as we continue through the 1.17 dev cycle and further. From 1.12 to 1.14, we had a major goal in releasing on Steam, which we achieved thanks to Vultraz's leadership during that time. Since then, whil...

Re: 1.17 Roadmap Discussion thread
As stated here , one of my suggested things for the 1.17.x cycle is a new MP RPG Co-Op Scenario/Mini-Campaign. However, I need approval for the plot of the scenario/campaign so that there are no complications with adding it to the game. Thus, may I request you to check this draft at your convenienc...
