BTW, I'm looking for someone who can teach me how to run wmlindent, so the WML we have doesn't look so fugly.

[Captain_Wrathbow]

Aircraft can capture villages... this used to not be possible. No wait, you fixed that already. I need to download the newest version.

So I played a two-player game, one side was Master Sergeant and the other was Technologist. A few comments:
- Master Sergeant's second and third leaderpowers are identical... at least in the descriptions.
- Technologist's Genetic Modification power affects both friendly and unfriendly units... not sure if this is intentional or not.
- The leaders' XP meters do not drop back to zero after using leader powers. (Although I kind of like this bug... I was able to use Genetic Modification on my units every turn and spam a massive army of practically unstoppable Supersoldiers. )
- The Modern Combat Europe map is broken. When you start a game on it, it says you have to use default gold and income settings... then crashes. (And yes, I was using default settings...)

Identical descriptions, will be fixed next update, thanks.

Intended.

- The leaders' XP meters do not drop back to zero after using leader powers. (Although I kind of like this bug... I was able to use Genetic Modification on my units every turn and spam a massive army of practically unstoppable Supersoldiers. )

I can't say I am able to locate the issue. It is working just fine for me. May you please send me a replay so I can try to reproduce the bug?

- The Modern Combat Europe map is broken. When you start a game on it, it says you have to use default gold and income settings... then crashes. (And yes, I was using default settings...)

Ugh, I can't find what could possibly be causing this.

[A Guy]

Hey, guys, today's my birthday, and I've just finished the last of the leaders. I'll put the new version up in a few. I would greatly appreciate a game of the newest version *hint* *hint*

[PsychoticKittens]

I found the problem with the Pacific and Europe maps, the fixes've been sent to A_Guy.

hey hey!
I loved this era ever since it first came out. I haven't played for about a year, and hopped on here to see if MC was picked back up after it had been dropped for quite a while. I'm overjoyed to see that it has, and would love a game, if there is a usual time when people get on for it, lemme know

imma go ahead and leave my email here for people to lemme know if they are setting up a game. This is an act of faith, and speaks to how deeply i love this era. Title an email "Modern Combat" so i know to open it, and please, no nude pictures.

EDIT: ok, so i guess PM me if anyone wants to play MC. But still no nude pictures.

[Pentarctagon]

I removed your E-Mail, since otherwise some bots might get it. Wesnoth has a PM system so your E-Mail is unneeded anyway. Also something else to take into consideration is that the post before yours was made back in July.

[Jagger]

HELP, im being stifled!

thanks in any case though

[Annalise]

I'd like to make a point here that on Wesnoth 1.10 The add-on is broken and says it is missing files during load-up.

ERROR DETAILS:
Macro/file 'DELAY' is missing at ~add-ons/Modern-Combat/utils/town_upgrade.cfg:40 included from ~add-ons/modern_combat.cfg:14 included from ~add-ons/Modern_Combat/Modern_Combat.cfg:128 included from ~add-ons/Modern_Combat.cfg:16
