The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

The question has come up a few times whether it is possible to have an external mechanism (such as a machine learning framework) interact with Wesnoth without having to change the C++ code. In other words, is it possible to receive the game state from Wesnoth and pass a move back to it, which is...

The add-ons manager currently has an option for showing only modifications, which lists (for 1.14) about 120 add-ons. I'm wondering if we should add filtering by subcategory to that, so we can say players looking for less or more challenge might want to check out the add-ons in Modifications...

I need to know why I'm mistaken for the code:

using special magic gun in capital doesn't work either

As above :) I think Wesnoth needs a mainline drake campaign. It would be nice to see which one is the most popular.

(1) What difficulty level and version of Wesnoth have you played the scenario on?
(2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10)
(3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?
(4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?
(5) What were your major...

Hello Wesnoth-community!
I´ve been playing this game for a while now without any modding or custom stuff. But recently I got interested in it. I made some custom units and abilities in a modern setting, with ships, planes and stuff. There is one problem I came across, the fuel for the planes. I...

Hello, in my quest to patch up 1.15 World Conquest, I have stumbled upon these two deprecation warnings (the last 2 left).

I have checked the wiki but I have found no documentation related to these things and the warning messages don't really seem helpful.

This is what all you have been waiting for for many months. A new campaign!

After quite some time working more or less intense on my add-on i decided to release it to get some feedback. It's called The Rising the kind of typical elf goes out of forest, and saves the world campaign that nearly every new campaign creator makes, and it aims to be much more epic than it...

I did some experiments with tiles derived from Wesnoth official maps.

The key idea is that roads and river use the logic of the wooden bridge. Therefore the endings are only visible extensions. They are overlays. Cities (village) and villages are overlays to. There can only be a village a road or...

I've been sketching drakes for a while now and recently decided I'd clean and ink one of those sketches. Here's the result : a drake arbiter that will likely serve as an alternate to whatever TSI comes up with when he gets back to drakes.

1. The game version is 1.14.
2. A player must play at least two games during a week.
3. A player must provide contact info on the tournament site (if you use Discord, fill out the ICQ field).
4. It’s a knockout (elimination) tournament. If the number of subtournament participants isn’t a multiple...
