Re: A relevant article for game developers

In a way, it kind of flies in the face of Wesnoth's game development, but one has to remember that David finished his game when he released it to the public. That doesn't mean he had a 1.0 version out, but it was completely playable. What do you mean? I'm not the foremost expert on BfW pre-history....

Re: Wesband 0.4.4, now with 4 players

Yeah, it's not exactly the same. I stole the image from Quietus's Minotaur faction, so, if you really want to know, you should ask him about it.

Re: Games

http://www.realmofthemadgod.com/ I'm not sure if I'm missing some obvious trick or what, but it's damn hard to actually kill anything in that game. Mash your movement keys and furiously click in the general direction of something that looks threatening, and hope something dies. Spray-and-pray taken...

Re: 'kill'= misleading name

I kind of see where you're coming from, but using kill=yes inside store_unit kills it just as much as by any other means (barring firing events and animation). There's no difference between the two scenarios below. Indeed, kill=yes replaces the basic function of [kill]. # scenario 1 [store_unit] var...

Re: Does [filter_vision] not work for AI sides?

That would be interesting if it does indeed work now, but the way we got it to work is apparently better because it also filters out the nearest unit. What we did was calculate the max movement (according to the terrain) of each enemy unit in range and add however many more MP it would take for it t...

Re: Random Campaign generator

Didn't there used to be (a very long time ago, though) something like this, called "Never-ending Campaign", or "Mystery Campaign"...? I seem to recall seeing its (again, very very old) wiki page... There was Endless War (one of those halted projects), which mainly pit 2 armies t...

Re: Random Campaign generator

Maybe you would be satisfied with World Conquest NM? Look for it on the add-on server.

Re: Wesband 0.4.4, now with 4 players

Yeah, they can only use healing potions. That isn't too hard to do, as the only context is how bad the unit hurt. I have grand plans for the other stuff, but we'll see how well I can carry them out.

Re: Some Issues with Henchmen and other bits

Henchmen: i went white mage, and at level .. 7,8,9? .. the damage wrapped around (went from 20-6 or something to 11-1 or something) on its magic attacks. Also the mage of light's attacks were the same type as the necros from the default wesnoth. Hmmm, I've never gotten that high myself, outside of ...

Re: [forum] A question about an FPI

The devs realize this. That's what I meant by "anymore than there already is."

Honestly, I think this FPI rule isn't as important as just saying "mainline isn't going to change much."
