The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Currently, I'm doing this: dialog.unit_info_mp:add_item_of_type("empty_page") dialog.unit_info_mp:add_item_of_type("unit_info_page") ... dialog.unit_info_mp[2].unit_info_preview.unit = wesnoth.units.find{ id = unit.id }[1] dialog.unit_info_mp.selected_index = 2 I'd like to be doi...

I fixed issue #1 by setting vertical_alignment="top" on the column that contains the grid that contains the left "half" of the dialog. local dialogDefinition = { T.tooltip { id = "tooltip" }, T.helptip { id = "tooltip_large" }, T.linked_group { id = "ar_p...

WML and I don't get along real well. It does a lot of things I don't like, I assume in the name of being "user friendly". I'm just not sure if this is one of those times, or if it's a bug (I'm strongly in favor of the latter). In the following code, [harm_unit] always happens, regardless o...

I don't know if you could make the text_box invisible, I've only found doing that for a dialog (background). I was thinking maybe, MAYBE, you could hide it by putting it in a panel and then drawing something over it so you couldn't see the box, use focus to force it to get attention, and on_modified...

A text_box, focus(), and on_modified?

Sorry, I'll be quiet now.

I wonder if you could make the dialog transparent, then position the widgets carefully so it appears the dialog is where you want.

I can do a cave path+lit or a cave path+castle overlay in the map editor (which I'm very weak with). But can I do a cave path + castle overlay + lit?

I'm creating a suicide bomber. When it attacks on offense it explodes, killing itself and damaging all adjacent units for the attacker's hitpoints. I have all this working, but I can't get the sounds right. I want it to use explosion.ogg when the special is active, and lightning.ogg when it is not (...

Yeah, "doesn't work" isn't much to go on. I wonder if this will help (from a [unit] declaration): [modifications] [advancement] [effect] apply_to=new_ability [abilities] {ABILITY_NINJA} [/abilities] [/effect] [/advancement] [/modifications]

Thanks. The WFL stuff looks quite useful, but I think I'll just stick to lua.

Thanks!

foreach doesn't play well with removing elements of the array it is iterating over. I don't try to remember the rules, I just use for if I'm going to remove anything.

Actually, I made the assumption that any side != 1 is an enemy of side 1.

I have a hard time keeping the filter rules straight, I always have to look for an example, but something like this?

You can use die or last breath for when the enemy leader dies and capture for when a village is captured as triggers. Then when one of those things happens you just need to check if the other two conditions are met and if so [endlevel]. [have_unit] can test if the enemy leader is alive/dead. Checkin...

Ah, hadn't seen that. Thanks.
