The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Hello, I checked out your campaign on a meta level.

And found some thinks like:

[difficulty]
define=NORMAL
image="units/monsters/ogre.png"
label= _ "Normal"
description= _ "Son of the Mountain"
default=yes
[/difficulty]
Ogres are not in the monsters folder, they are in the "ogres ...

Presumably image = "{ITEM}" should be image = "{IMG}".

The map editor now has a pbl editor dialog that can help.

The Herbalist strikes me as a little off, since it's the only one that doesn't have any plants visible. I think it'd be good to see plants for example in his bag and under his belt.

#define ...

Apparently it was somehow missing from https://wiki.wesnoth.org/CampaignWML, but you'd want to use the define attribute of [campaign]. For example: https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth/blob ... in.cfg#L16

You can do that, you'd just need to reference each of the campaign-specific _main.cfg files from the root one.

Interesting. Any example where I can check how actually this works? I'm meaning, the exact syntax?


In the root _main.cfg, use file inclusion (https://wiki.wesnoth.org ...

Yes.

What would be nice is to be able to put several campaigns in the same /scenario folder, and have different _main.cfg files for each (guess they would need to have personalized names, like "_main_MyFirstCampaign.cfg", "_main_MySecondCampaign.cfg"). Oh well.


You can do that, you'd just need to ...
