The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Played through the campaign to the end. I consider this to be _the_ best Wesnoth campaign (better than any other unofficial campaigns I played, or than I like the change of style from IftU. The story/characters are much less simplistic and gameplay seems to have been improved from the faults of IftU...

It seems that 1.40 is the default Boost version in Ubuntu 10.04 (it is the one supported by Canonical).

Also, since I'm already used to coding in clean looking languages like Python, it'd be better for be to use a normal programmin...

I'm more interested about replacing the whole AI module, i.e. from scratch. I'd like to know if that's possible without directly messing with Wesnoth source, and in such a way that the AI can be plugged in/out. Lua's not my thing but definitely a lot better than WML.
