It looks like it was never ported to Wesnoth 1.16, so you will need to run Wesnoth 1.14 to play it.

I think there's an example of this in the scenario "Choice in the Fog" (in The South Guard).

The numbers_between function is documented as returning a half-open interval. So it includes the first value but not the last value.

Warning The remote version of this add-on is greater or equal to the version being uploaded. Do you really with to continue? I see this if I go to publishable add-ons, and then hit the up-arrow, this is the correct way to put in the new version? I just want to make sure hitting yes doesn't break an...

What was the warning message?

Keep in mind that you will want to increment the version number whenever you upload a new version.

I’ll be getting time limits set very soon and finish with as many other suggestions as I can, try to post. Other big thing I want to put in is the world map and travel and battle locations, is there a tutorial I can look at for that? There is MakingCampaignInWML (see part 4 ). There is also a tool ...

It didn't work. Probably because it's wrong. dialog["listbox_id"] == dialog.listbox_id, I see that now, but I have no idea what if anything is equivalent to dialog[listbox_id] using "dot-notation". In general, there is no way to write dialog[listbox_id] using dot-notation. But i...

I am still struggling with how to actually put in the .pbl file that enables it to be published, the downloads I have don’t seem to have something clearly labeled that way, maybe I’m just being dense and don’t see it? The .pbl file is not found in downloads; it is only used for uploading, and the ....

Would you suggest some sort of hint in objectives so it is clearer for those who aren't in it for the talking? It's usually best to mention things which affect gameplay in the objectives. Another reason for this: if a player has difficulty remembering the details, it's easy to review by selecting &...

is code really that complicated to understand? there are indies (of single people) that make amazing games within the span of 24 hours to 2 years Those are obviously experienced programmers... so something that is just 1 small game feature shouldn't be that hard to understand? Well, you've looked a...

first wesnoth project, going to do this until its completed This seems like an awfully complicated project for a beginner. goal : goal is to edit this code and make it into an addon so it'd would work on any campaigns/maps wesnoth has assuming this should be kinda simple and not too hard since the ...

Try ReferenceWML

In case it's not obvious: The name is what gets displayed to the player in the game . (In the sidebar, in the recruit list, etc.) The id is what you use to refer to the unit type from within code . (WML code, Lua code, etc.) It's not intended to be displayed to the player in the game. (The BuildingU...

Perhaps one option for AToTB might be to remove the hard difficulty completely, leaving just the beginner setting. (Or, revise it to Very-Easy plus Normal-Easy.) In any case, I'm not involved in all that and just giving one bloke's feedback :-) Playstyle and personal preferences are likely a part o...

Should note that I'm playing it on the harder difficulty – does anyone actually play on easy? – so that might possibly affect the unit distribution, but it certainly doesn't affect the terrain or dialogue writing. A lot of the issues you've talked about are actually addressed if you play on the eas...
