The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

The scenario editor currently has a feature called Item Tool which allows you to easily place images on the ground, which is great for scenery. The problem is that these images currently can't be removed from within the editor.

A solution to this problem would be great.

I realize you can stack...

Hi,
noticed that for the Elder Falcon the claws have the charge special.

The falcon has this on the beak attack as is the case for 1.14.

Had a quick skim and couldn't find an mention of it hence this post.
Apologies if it has been reported.

Cheers,

At this point in my first game back, I'm supposed to have dealt more than double the damage I've taken; but I've taken more damage than I've dealt instead. :lol:

Feedback/bug report thread for Kal-Karthan Purification Force, a THoT-spoiling faction composed of

If you have any requests or comments regarding this add-on, just post them here.

Back in 2015, a dire warning went out about the state of Wesnoth's development - the entire Wesnoth project was in danger of slowing to a halt; the ship is sinking .

Fast forward to now, and I'm glad I'm able to say that the situation is no longer quite so dire. The project's internal structure...

Hi,

There a weird bug when applying overlays in 1.14.

Add an overlay image to some unit using apply_to=overlay . If you check the unit in debug :inspect, the overlays= field will show the image file twice.
For every subsequent non-overlay object given to the unit, the image overlay gets...

The generation of unit names using context-free grammar in BFW1.14 is pretty clear :
using male_name_generator/female_name_generator works (see drakes)
using name_generator doesn't (see saurians)

Given this statement is questioned repeatedly by developers, it appears that this is potentially...

One of Fate of a Princess' charms, IMO, is the way the SkyOne found new uses for existing aspects of the game.
To quote myself -
For example, a shaman healing animation is reused without its halo as a child jumping for joy, which is rather cute.
The berserker laugh is used as just a laugh, in a...

Hello.
As an orcs' fan and PVP's coward, here I share my SotBE(Difficult) replays with you. :)
Version:1.14.X

There's scenario 1,3-11. As of the rest, they seem exhausting. Though I have finished all scenarios under difficulty “Challenging”, I don't want to play the rest of “Difficult” for now....

I recently uploaded my add-on Corpse Mod 2 and made custom images for many units, where they are dead, but I didn't really manage to do a good frame for the horse units from the Rebels faction. I've tried, as you can see:

But looking at this, I know it's terrible. Maybe someone better at doing...

A somewhat belated (sorry!) update for iOS is in progress.

I'm working on a couple of known bugs:

Known to reproduce on iPad Air 2, maybe on other hardware too. A workaround is to reinstall the game. Save...

Hi gents,
while reviewing italian translation of SoF campaign (dev branch), between the other untranslated strings I found the description of the various dwarf stash, for example this one:

Greetings,

Unless it's fixed before this was presented, the problem affects statistics for Battle for Wesnoth versions 1.12 and above, including developemental builds.

Hi,

There are 2 new ideas and a change from WC II.

The first idea is to limit the recruitment/recall of one type of unit to avoid spamming units. Example, at scenario 1, the max is 2 units. So you play loyalists and you recruit 2 spearmen : A and B. You cannot recruit another spearman. During the...

Hi there!

Wesnoth is a complex turn-based strategy game. This complexity leads to single games that can last hours (or tens of hours) with a lot of back and forth. Overly long games can make the game harder to get into for new players. One of the complexities of the game is hidden information, in this case,...

A small quality of life improvement to engaging and disengaging planning mode frequently would be a graphical indicator that planning mode was active. My idea is simply that the on-screen mouse change to a red color or outline when planning mode is active. This way it's automatically a part of the...
