The order does make sense though, I didn't do it out of whim.SigurdTheDragon wrote: Part of what makes a game 'playable' is ease of use. By sorting according to alphabetical order of name, the list follows the most natural way for players to interact with it. If it's order doesn't make sense, it requires just a little more effort from the player, especially if the list is longer; thus slighty discouraging the player.
They were ordered depending on their unit type: Infantry, Artillery, Cavalry, Explorer, Naval.
Which actually makes unit easier to find in the list than if they are "ordered" alphabetically, they are all mixed up.

I agree that this is useful, and feel it should done by expanding how the recruit list can be view.PapaSmurfReloaded wrote:They were ordered depending on their unit type: Infantry, Artillery, Cavalry, Explorer, Naval.Which actually makes unit easier to find in the list than if they are "ordered" alphabetically, they are all mixed up.
There's relevant discussion in the ideas forum here: http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=34865 , which should be furthered to hammer out what could be done with the recurit dialog; and is probably the best place to continue this discussion.

Re: Wesnoth 1.9.8
OK, how do I install 1.9.8? I'm using Fedora. I've downloaded it, but I'm not to sure where to put it so I can still play 1.8, do I just dump it into the usr/share/ folder? Thanks!

Re: Wesnoth 1.9.8
If you compile it from source, I think there is a setting that installs it into a different directory, something like
PREFIX=$HOME
. That's what I did, it worked fine.Timshel
Re: Wesnoth 1.9.8
When compiling from source it’s not even necessary to install it to play, though. Also note that Wesnoth 1.9.9 is the most current development release.
