Re: Looking for advice on creating artwork for the Wesnoth Campaign

As it turned out, the OP was a spammer. We discovered this by a tiny spam link in their signature, plus their e-mail address had already been reported several times in StopForumSpam.
Therefore I'm locking this thread, since we didn't have a real user to begin with.

Re: The Sojournings of Grog

The current maintainer, Elvish Hunter, is kind of preoccupied with RL these days, so it will be a while before he gets to porting it. You can contact him for an ETA though. Did he say if others are allowed to do the porting for him? (I mean, yes, technically the license allows people to do so regar...

Re: The wiki that almost no one notices

I rarely register for a webforum these days, as I need to remember/store the passwords, go through registration, sometimes also need to set up MFA/2FA, which can be cumbersome ... That's what password managers are for. You're not supposed to invent and remember a password for each website; instead,...

Re: PapaSmurf's Wesnoth Map Making Tool (1.3)

I haven't tested the script yet, but this is really a neat concept. Good job! However, I read the script and noticed two things. First: you're using the numpy, scipy and matplot libraries. I never needed to use them until now, so can you tell me why did you choose to use them? Second: if I understoo...

Re: Very disappointed

I won't waste my time and energy for recommending this. Well, since you don't want to waste your time and energy , we can't afford to waste ours trying to guess what went wrong without having any useful info, despite us being willing to help . It's now clear that nothing good can come out of this t...

Re: Very disappointed

which would still be interesting to find out how she would have gotten that ad or spam As I said, my best guess is that she saw a spam post on the forums. However, how was she able to see it if she couldn't view the forum at all? Logically, the two things are mutually exclusive, so that's another r...

Re: Very disappointed

So, long story short, she told me that her security code never arrived, and apparently the game is region locked? If you mean the confirmation code for registering on the forums, a few e-mail providers are known for classifying our e-mails as spam and outright incinerating them (*cough* Outlook *co...

Re: The Dark Hordes - Resurrection Project

Here's some information that may be of your interest. Until a few years ago, we had a project called Wesnoth-UMC-Dev that tried to centralize and put under version control (SVN, in this case) add-on development. Nowadays, most add-on development has moved to individual repositories on GitHub, but th...

Re: Unpopular opinion: +8 healing is too strong in singleplayer campaigns

I remember that in some old versions (probably around 1.0, or even 0.9.x) healing was less powerful. +4 healers were able to heal a maximum of 8 HPs per turn, while +8 healers were able to heal a maximum of 18 HPs per turn, distributed between all the adjacent units. It was kind of odd, so this is w...

Yes, it will be (as will be all my other add-ons), I just haven't had the time to do so.

Re: [engine] Different resistances for offence and defence without abilities

Let's assume a UMC author wants one unit type have: Fire resistance -30% when attacking and -10% when defending. Cold resistance +20% when attacking and +10% when defending. Arcane resistance -50% when attacking and +0% when defending. He or she wants another unit type have: Fire resistance +0% whe...

Re: Candidate Statement for 1.20 Board Election

Probably I'm a bit late to the party, but on the other hand I decided to wait until the election started to make my own statement. As you know, I became a member of the Board in 2022 (because Iris resigned); although real life made me less present and active than I wanted, I oversaw us joining SPI a...

Re: Wesnoth Inc Board Member Election - Voting

Question: what happens in case of a tie, meaning that the candidates with the 3rd and 4th highest vote count have the same amount of votes? I re-read paragraph V of our Constitution and there's no provision for that situation.

Re: Wesnoth Inc Board Member Election

I'm going to nominate myself.

Question: are nominations sent by forum PM or Discord DM valid, or they should be only made publicly in this topic?
