We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
At the moment the Dwarvish Berserker's 'special' ability is basically a plain old charge. Would be very nice, if the horseman tree didn't already fill that slot.
So how about a new special ability for Berserker's: 'berserk' . This attack would involve the combat proceeding as normal. However, at...
I have played and followed development of wesnoth since a few time now (0.6.x) and I enventually decided to register and post something :)
First of all, I'd like to thank David and all other contributors to the project for this great game. Big THX to all of you.
- Merman vs Naga fights are boring, because neither side hits most of the time
- Merman and Nagas have limited value as an investment, because really, they're rather weak.
I believe healers SHOULD get XP for good strategic use of their healing abilities. This just doesn't mean following a wounded person around. How much sense does this make: I as a healer shalt improve my skills by popping out and strategically bopping this wounded thingy on the head! Ummm, it just...
There was somewhere another thread with the idea of storing non-default campaigns in the home-directory (~/.wesnoth/).
If this is implemented, an easy-to-use campaign installer (real simple ...) which extracts a .tgz-file and copies it to the wesnoth-user-directory would make campaign-installation...
I was thinking, since some musics are short and maybe repetitive after a while, why not implement a track player in the game? It would give the possibility to each individual to listen to whatever song he wants and make playlists. Sounds good? :roll: Is it possible to add?
This is my first post to a Wesnoth forum. Before I say anything else I'd like to thank everyone who has contributed to this project. Wesnoth is the only computer game I've played in quite some time, period.
Now that I have buttered you all up, here is my suggestion :-)
I have an idea for a new kind of attack special ability: freezing. This would be appropriate for some 'cold' attacks. Its effect would be to make the target immobile for a turn, unable to attack, move, or emit a ZoC.
However, if a frozen unit is attacked and hit, its freezing ends immediately....
I think it would be cool to have units that could lay traps... for example a orcish pit digger . This unit could dig a pit in the ground that would be invisible to enemies. If the enemy lands on it then it would suffer damage. There could also be special scout units that can see the traps. Just an...
Many times when combat evolves, my units get surrounded by many enemies, thereby restricting their movement. When I wish two units to exchange places, I have to move one unit to a free hex, then the other unit steps into place where first unit was, and finally the first unit get where to other was....
I think the chat text should have the same alpha transparent background that tool tip text gets. The reason being it is very hard to read the white text sometimes against light backgrounds, especially in the day.
Why does the enemy leader sleep all time?
I mean, after move 1 (when The Boss goes capturing the nearest village) the enemy leader sits and waits for our armies to storm the keep.
Is there a reason for keeping the (usually) strongest unit at bay?
My Konrad sometimes fights!
I'd like to see 'Random' in the Race selection menu, should be an easy addition.. I don't like to know who my computer-foes are, amongst being able to randomly select my own race when I don't know whom to choose.
1. orcish medicine man => orcish priest doctor
both have heals, advancement has some kind of magic attack. used as a support unit. (i thought of it as a support unit when i was playing orcs and realized they didn't have one).
OK, I've been working on a graphic for an upgraded Shock Trooper, and it's almost finalised. But the question remains - should it remain in the same greys as the previous two levels, or should it have golden highlights to demonstrate its superiority? Opinions please.
I've been thinking that a hotkey that showed at one time the hexes where all enemy units can reach would be useful. It wouldn't matter which or how many units could get to which hex (though I suppose the latter could be done with increasing opacity).
For those times when I want to place my unit in...
Unit abilities such as 'heals', 'cures', 'regenerates', 'ambush', etc, are difficult to make flexible. To make a system that would allow anyone to define any ability they want in WML would require a full-fledged programming language, that'd probably be so complicated that anyone who could use it...
I have the idea that you could issue defend action to a unit that hasn't attacked. It ends its move at that moment and has +30% defense during opponent round. Something like fortify in civilization.
I can be useful, because often I want units to just hold their ground while some other units are...
Would it be possible to make multiple hexes that are inside the castle blend with each other, so only the outer walls are visible. IMHO, it would look much nicer. Only the keep should be drawn as it is now.
I've been pondering ways to make it easier to advance tricky units like the Elvish Shaman, without unbalancing the current XP progression system too much. Anyway, one concept I came up with is vicarious XP.
It's simple enough: If a unit is beside a friendly unit when it makes a kill, it gains 1XP...
I don't know if any of you played Ogre Battle . it is one of the best games i've ever played. In fact, the first time i saw Wesnoth i saw a similarity to this game! Anyway, i wanted to know how people would feel having a different battle system. Here are some shots of Ogre Battle:
OK, call me dumb, but I am thinking of producing a Mac Campaign Editor. It could be amusing and would be a proper attempt to support the project. It has previously been agreed that tools do not need to be cross-platform and as Cocoa is laughably easy to get an app up and running it will allow me to...
