Re: ForestDragon's WML questions
Another question: how exactly does the campaign laurel type selection work? And preferably, are there are ways to alter it mid-campaign?

Re: ForestDragon's WML questions
Question; how to filter hidden units with [filter_wml] or the like? by hidden, I mean when a [hides] ability is active on a unit. (I basically need a way to exclude hidden units in a filter)

Re: ForestDragon's WML questions
Did you look at the standard unit filter tags? There is "ability_type_active". Or did you try that already?

Re: ForestDragon's WML questions
Haven't seen it yet. (I didn't really have much knowledge of the many great WML additions of the 1.13.x/1.14.x versions) Thanks!beetlenaut wrote: ↑July 6th, 2018, 1:22 pm Did you look at the standard unit filter tags? There is "ability_type_active". Or did you try that already?

Re: ForestDragon's WML questions
You don't need to know. That's what the documentation is for. I didn't know this key existed either until I saw your question and looked at the standard unit filter keys.ForestDragon wrote: ↑July 6th, 2018, 3:14 pmI didn't really have much knowledge of the many great WML additions of the 1.13.x/1.14.x versions

It would save time.
