The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

I guess this crash issue is specific for old windows laptops(2004-2009?) maybe due to old software/hardware and the game/OS either doesn’t recognize them or specific hardware related issues for windows/sound software. I was playing with an older laptop with Windows XP and installed Wesnoth 1.12.6 an...

I want to create some new terrain type using original terrain artworks. I have study terrain graphic rule for few days but still can't figure it out. So I use a stupid way to make my own one without making new terrain graphic rule. If you want to use the game’s artwork for terrain, this could help ...

I think white_haired_uncle point was, bad luck occurring very early in the game (turns 1-100?), will kill your game, as you may lack gold or other features, as most of the things you mentioned, only apply if were given time to farmed enough resources including gold. If you got struck with a unfortun...

Yes, something similar can also be made, but I don't know if it will be confusing...

I’m reluctant to reply to your statement, as many days have passed. I hope that you may address this issue, with prudence , in the future : Unfortunately, he does not always understand what he is saying. I was hoping for a professional argument, I wasn’t advocating for creation of a new AI, it was a...

In the first I assume some defensive moves, which might include a step-back AND parry step with a shield or a weapon; in the latter I always complete dodging altogether without any contact whatsoever. At the least that is my non-native english association. You won't find defensive moves other than ...

@josteph It depends if a stat affects the game early, e.g. adding unnecessary risk for units that will immediately conclude the game. I saw what you mean but I didn’t elaborate due to the premature stage of the idea and it needs a new thread. Back on topic I prefer option B but I like option C of pl...

@pauxlo I forgot to consider that it was about the last player side to first player side comparison, that he was implying.

Sorry for making it complicated and Thank you very much for correcting! I appreciate it .

I apologise for taking a long time, I hope you understand. Damage calculations doesn’t tell you if you made a mistake or did well on using terrain advantage to win. If damage doesn't tell you that, how the hits tells that? Unfortunately they both have the same problem. All statistics does show is a ...

I meant that ladder community has already analyzed a tons of replays and developed a lot of strategies. You disagree with that? No. Are your assumptions based on the ladder game history? Do you know about the ELO system used there? No. I made a mistake assuming that it doesn’t use a system that adj...

@josteph I thought it was comparing enemy to your luck, my mistake then :oops:. I don't think it is possible to measure importance of a hit in a general case. It’s possible, but that’s a new idea and needs other supporting mechanisms to detect things. If you consider killing a unit important, that c...

Currently, they're colored so green means the RNG favored the opponent's , that is, if you win and the stats are green that means you won in spite of the RNG, you won due to skill, not luck. We can’t actually compare your luck against your enemy. As your luck is independent from their luck. Skill c...

Ladder players have already watched a tons of replays and developed a lot of strategies. Let’s say for the sake of argument, I disagree. The games can be "farm game" to farm "points", by being the most active ladder player and defeating newbies. How would you measure these games? Most competitions ...

Mawmoocn, I have remarks on individual items If you have questions, feel free to ask. I’ll try to answer, if possible. All ladders are unofficial. It means that there won't be player rating in the replay statistics. As Hejnewar said, it is essential to consider player rating. I totally agree with h...

Xalzar, thank you for sharing (and finding) the idea! I found it interesting that it has similar things on what I have thought. I think I’m late for posting this... "Summary" will contain "Final battle statistics" that includes the whole overview result. In-depth analysis contains verbose details th...
