The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

I manually stopped it during the loop... the campaign now starts (I can play the first scenario), but my custom units refuse to show up unknown unit type: "Dragon Rider" and so on Should I just run wmllint again, with --nospellcheck, and hope it is fixed? I had the same problem while I was...

omg, how long is it supposed to take?
I installed the enchant library to allow spellchecking, and after I entered the lines and pressed enter the machine went on to growl for half an hour or so. I had to terminate it manually, because I wanted to sleep.
i'll try again, though

shoot, I knew there was something wrong with the yielding stuff. Thanks, I appreciate that. OK, I start making a list of borrowed sprites and start pm-ing their respective creators. Thanks again for the suggestion. AI was not so developed back in 1.4... I really got to get myself up-to-date... I got...

my bad I know about the $variable thing. how can I access a unit's variables (e.g. hitpoints, coordinates)? I guess that would solve the problem. Is it something like $Enemy.variables.hitpoints? As for the avoid thing, I originally tried with [avoid] [filter] id=Enemy [/filter] radius=7 [/avoid] in ...

no, I meant safer in terms of efficiency, because of the win-specific bugs reported before. Thanks, though, I'll try it ASAP

First serious setback with coding: I'm trying to make my allies avoid an enemy unit. I understand the [avoid] tag is for terrain (eg avoid x, y=14, 9). Any ideas? I tried linking the coordinates of the Enemy to those to be avoided: like [event] name=moveto first_time_only=no [filter] id=Enemy [/filt...

Story: Arega is the sole hope of his neglected tribe, living on the border of Wesnoth. He is expected to lead them back to importance, and takes this responsibility earnestly. He yields an enchanted blade that shapes his appearance in accordance to his soul. He is exiled from his village for killing...

So would it just be safer to do on Linux?
Anyway, thanks guys. I can see my old campaign in the 1.8 addon list!!

Hello everybody wmllint is one of the best tools that come with wesnoth. It's a no-brainer to edit your campaign with this, instead of re-writing again manually in order to make it compatible with the new version. Now, not all of us (including me) have any kind of experience with Python, or Lua or C...

Hi there. I didn't play all of the campaign, but I comprehensively studied all WML files (yes, I'm a geek type of guy), and I really liked it. Nice dialog - except for some slight mistakes, which didn't bother me, since I'm not a native speaker myself. Nice overpowered units (there was no way Jil co...

I read lots of Asterix comics when I was younger (I still do...). "Galica" is the word for the sandal the roman soldiers wore, "galicae" is the plural. I liked it a lot, though I don't know why. I found out nice names come out of randomly typing on the keyboard. My username would...

hey guys, just dropped by to say well done. The game looks awesome.

After some tinkering, (using the following .bat file) I got to this result: C:\Documents and Settings\παιδιά\Desktop>C:\Python26\python.exe C:\Program_Files \Battle_for_Wesnoth_1.6.5\data\tools\wmllint --dryrun C:\Program_Files\Battle_fo r_Wesnoth_1.6.5\data\core C:\Program_Files\Battle_for_Wesnoth_...

Hi, it's me again. Upon trying to transcribe my campaign for the 1.6 version, I stumbled on actually using wmllint. I have downloaded and installed python (I'm on Windows), and tried to figure out some things using the tutorial, but it proved way too complicated (and long). So, I'm again asking for ...

omgomgomg
it's up! I can't believe it!
thanks a lot zookeeper
and thanks a lot SkyOne
about the map files, well this explains some things. But since I don't have Internet on my computer, I could only hack mainline campaigns
