Re: Legend of the Invincibles

I'm playing (and coding on) the development version right now.

Can you be more specific? What versions (BfW and LotI) are you on? What errors are you getting?

Re: Clone unit in WML

Store, change id, unstore. If you do not trust yourself to avoid id conflicts then generate new [unit], save its id , kill it, and assign that id to copy. If I knew how to do that, couldn't I just unstore the original unit over itself (with find_vacant=yes) and let a new id be assigned? Of course, ...

Clone unit in WML

I have to be missing something here. Without using lua, how do I simply clone a unit? I want to make a copy of a leader, and then change a few things (like canrecruit). I could make a new unit and copy all its attributes. I guess that's simple, but tedious. I could store a unit and unstore it. I thi...

Re: Working lua need advice deciding which method is best

_("There is a $color $species.") I only speak American, not even English, but that looks like a pain for translators. Would they re-order $color and $species as necessary (in which case this appears to be a preferable alternative to string.format, which I find much more readable)? What ab...

Re: Custom dialog questions

1. Try adding "\n" where you want a line break? If not you may have to use multiple labels. You can use max_width in some places, but I've never figured out how to get that to do anything. 2. You mean it's too big? You can move the location, but (again) I'm not sure about size. 3. You can ...

Re: Legend of the Invincibles

If you got the penetration changes you did get the demon trait changes as well. I think those only apply on easy/normal, though.

Re: Legend of the Invincibles

If you mentioned it, I missed it. What LotI version and difficulty are you playing? Parts of chapter 10 used to be nearly impossible if a demon rolled the right traits, so I'm wondering if the changes might have helped. P.S. I usually skip Corrupted Town. Charge after charge after charge... I've pla...

Re: Legend of the Invincibles

Very impressive.

How was chapter 10?

Re: Legend of the Invincibles

Hey guys! Any idea if the campaign is going to be ported to 1.18? If so, is there any expected date of release? I've played the development version on 1.18 (actually 1.17 and 1.19). Other than some missing images during combat against certain unit types (just barely a minor annoyance), I didn't hav...

Re: [engine] min_value for [resistance]

I'm fine with multiplying weakness. That's not it this is about.

The issue is that the effect is capped on the positive side, but not the negative, hence min (max_negative) value.

status: needs_cure

I would swear I saw this somewhere, but I can't find it now. A UMC may implement a custom poison-like status (loti's incinerate for example) which can be cured by a healer or village. Therefore, it would be helpful if there was a way to inform the AI that, for some reason it does not understand, a u...

[solved] [engine] min_value for [resistance]

[resistance] takes a max_value, but does not have a min_value (or max_negative_value, which may be a little easier to understand). LotI has an ability called adamant, which triples resistances, but only up max_value=80%. However, it also has a penetration special, which has an effect to lower resist...

You mean for getting started with creating your first gui?

If so, did you try the link I posted above ("Getting Started")?

Re: Making a dialogue tree with WML

Are you saying that "[Final message that doesn't actually get printed]" doesn't get displayed after "Result of choice 1" or "Result of Choice 2"? Because it does for me.
