The Wesnothian Army - WIP

I know what it is, but it uses wizards for making scenarios etc., and making your own WML lets you have more control.

Well, that's what an IDE is about, right?
It supplies you with tools to easily create big bunches of WML. Setting up the infrastructure for a project always takes a lot of time (create a _main.cfg, your scenario configs, etc, etc), and this is done with one click by the IDE. Also, it provides very easy ways to start your scenarios / edit your maps directly inside the editor, run maintenance tools (wmlindent, wmllint, wmlscope) on it and stuff like that. I can't see how that limits you, it only gives you more time for implementing things...

Try to make UTBS or IFTU in the UMC Development IDE.

Why shouldn't that be possible?
I didn't use version 2.0.0 of the UMC IDE, so I cannot say whether anything changed, but I don't recall any limitations it gave me. When I used it (currently I don't use it anymore as Eclipse is too slow for me), I was able to modify the WML all over the place.

I can't get it to work.

Anyway, how did you guys find the scenario?

[janenho13]

What scenario?

[Flameslash]

Either. Did you find the loyal units? How hard was it?

[Flameslash]

Added the new campaign folder, featuring:

-Fixed Scenario 2
-WIP Scenario 3

[janenho13]

Where did you add it?

[Flameslash]

In the first post.

[janenho13]

It is well-formed except one thing, which is not mandatory but it is better to do scenarios with it. The ending dialogue. When is missing, the game is bit less interesting.

[Flameslash]

How do you set an event to be on a unit's death? Tell me and I'll fix it.

[Crendgrim]

Use a last breath event if the unit is supposed to speak in the event, else a die event. Whichever you use, [filter] will match the unit you want to track the death of. EventWML

[Flameslash]

Yeah, but how do I specify who's death? And how do I make the killer speak?

[Ceres]

Yeah, but how do I specify who's death? And how do I make the killer speak?

[filter] will match the unit you want to track the death of

speaker=unit to let the dying unit speak, speaker=second_unit for the killing one.

[Flameslash]

Ok, thank you, but how do I say who's death? die=Unit ID?

[janenho13]

this event
[event]
name=last breath
[filter]
id=Bandit
[/filter]
[message]
speaker=Bandit
message= _ "NO!"
[/message]
[endlevel]

[Flameslash]

Ok, thanks.
