Topic: Rewriting the unit descriptions
Replies: 30

To make this effort more productive, I suggest judicious use of the 'svn log' command. Some descriptions were rewritten for 1.0 and extensively polished. It would be silly to rewrite them yet again, when many descriptions are still the quick placeholder texts that were originally committed with the ...

Unfortunately the fix seems to cause huge slowdown, to the extent that we may have increased the minimum spec required for the game by a factor of 2 or so. Some optimization seems called for.

Ideal would be a diff against current svn.

we should IMHO leave it as-is. As-is in 1.0.2, or as-is in trunk? 1.0.2 has "slow-on-attack halves movement rate of defender until end of defending unit's next turn, and reduces defender's attacks by one (with a minimum of 1) until end of defending unit's next turn; slow-on-defend reduces atta...

Ordering of events can be achieved by using the [command] tag, so you could first apply a 100% removal and then apply the change you want.

There is quite a bit of context here, no need to reinvent the wheel. Note that the "Load Game" menu allows sorting savefiles by date or by filename (click on the header). Deleting saved games is the subject of patch https://gna.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=457 as discussed in htt...

[store_unit] should not clear variable if filter not matched

In game_events.cpp, the code for the [store_unit] tag clears the variable even if the filter does not match. So [store_unit] variable=junk [filter] x,y=999,999 [/filter] [/store_unit] (or similarly false filters) will always clear junk. Is anyone relying on this? I would like to change this code so ...

Since the wiki macros are user contributed, perhaps you would like to continue this discussion at the Wiki page you reference. A fixed macro would be especially useful, although an explanation of where you see the problem would perhaps be enough.

Re: Enemy Moves Hard To See on Gray Tiles

Has anyone noticed that it's really hard to check enemy moves on gray tiles? Do you have a screenshot extract to illustrate what you mean? It has never seemed a big problem to me, though we have had complaints that on certain colour palettes highlighted castle hexes at night are not distinguishable...
