The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

wesnoth.dofile('X') The scenario data is transfered over the network from the host to other players. For this case, it transfers the literal Lua statement, which means read file X. But other players do not have the add-on and not file X. But it's also possible to send the contents of file X over th...

Everytime I do loggin resets all previous settings to default.

Wesnoth saves the preferences when leaving.
I have the suspicion that the preferences are not saved when quitting Wesnoth with the X on the top-right corner.

Unfortunately yes. A new update is out fixing the problem. Would never have found that bug on my own.

The first sounds like an wesnoth bug, probably related the add-on manager. Because one usually downloads add-ons just once we don't know much about it. If you ever encounter it again, a bug report would help (best at https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth/issues ) For the Rouge Mage, I can't confirm it....

Thanks for the feedback. I uploaded an update which fixes the issues. For The Wall map, they do now get a castle, some more villages and a guard, but they won't build more things themselves. In difference to the other maps in the add-on – or Undead Empire – this is a normal MP map, which one can tur...

A new version is now on the 1.14 / 1.15 server. For anybody reading old posts in this thread, with this update positions of side 3 & 4 are swapped (sides are now ordered clockwise). There are many detail changes, but a few things I want to point out: - Hard may be too hard now, having 2 yetis. O...

A few things changed over time, but there was never a changelog: worker options: - Flooding fields (and for undead creating swamps) can only be done next to water terrain. - Upon popular demand, castles can be removed, but for a price. (Is that needed for villages too? Not added yet because of balan...

I saved the game and … You can edit the savefile. It's compressed with Gzip, you can uncompress it ( 7-Zip is one of the tools which can do that), and then edit the file. It's a normal text file. Hard part is to find the right place, it's totally normal if the file has 150.000 lines. The spot which...

That's the add-on: https://github.com/trewe/Valley_of_the_ ... /scenarios

It's also on the add-on server under that name.
It's just not clear that it's part of that add-on, I didn't find it either when I looked for it last year.

Perfect, thank you! I had forgotten about the unique ID requirement, so I'm glad you reminded me. What does it mean to add a unit "directly" from another add-on? Is that different from copying its .cfg file and art into my add-on's subdirectory? When I wrote that, I was thinking along the...

Yes to both. In your _main.cfg, you need #ifdef MULTIPLAYER [binary_path] path=data/add-ons/Gauntlet/ [/binary_path] # so that the game looks in that path for certain subdirectories containing binary files, such as images or sounds. #endif Futhermore, 2 important things: - If you add units or custom...

*loads throwing axes into a catapult* […] a ranged melee attack sounds kind of silly, but we don't really have a reason to explicitly disallow it. … like a Falcon? I know you intended this as a joke, but actually … I see a use case in mainline for it. :eng: There's a new unit unit in 1.15, the Dune...

Castles are actually base terrains too. I should add: the trick with shift also works the other way around, for replacing base terrains without removing the overlay. For 4.In version 1.15 (the development version) an alternative, different looking, mushroom terrain has been added, which is a base te...

Could it be that you have the core add-on but not the maths era installed? Then it would crash when entering MP, because there are no factions defined.
The AI error message is harmless.

Era of Maths 1.0 released Forget Era of Myths , it's now maths’ time. This is a total-conversion mod, which replaces most of Wesnoth. After installation, a new button will appear in the main menu … This started as a showcase about what one can do with cores in Wesnoth … and me having some maths lec...
