Several of our mainline campaigns are in the works for upgrades at the moment, which includes adding characters and enhancing existing scenarios. We are looking for more artwork to supplement these upgrades, including the following:
We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
Does you campaign produce obscure WML errors on startup and you don't know what line in your 2000 lines of WML causes it? Instead of going through everything line by line and try to spot the mistake you've made, or before posting your entire campaign on the forums in the hopes that someone wants to...

The purpose of this thread is to provide links to particularly useful information and code examples of WML and Lua on the wiki, without cluttering up this forum with more and more stickies. As such, the wiki pages linked here should be kept working and up to date - if an unmodified piece of example...
People often use WML attribute or tag names that are misspelled or just plain fictitious when trying to debug WML — or even tag structures that (to the trained eye) are logical to the writer but have no basis in reality. You should always look up the proper format first, and we have a dedicated...

Good day to you ladies and gents. So basically i made a character that is unique (in a sense that he is an important character for me at least) so it should have a name and one name only.

I've just noticed, that using array variables e.g. $arrayname. .name inside a prestart event doesn't work. It seems the variable is considered as empty. The solution for me was, to put it in the start event. I'm still curious: Is this a bug or this intended?
Hello! I just wanted to report a bug (maybe it's a bug) and ask a question.
and tags, sometimes doesn't work when the event is 'name= side X turn X' - (EX: side 2 turn 6). The animations don't display correctly (i mean: don't display at all). Is there any issue? :hmm:
The only way I could solve...

How can I implement a weaker version of fearless? that only reduces the penalty by 5 percent (so if the time of day says -15 it would become -10)? if it helps, the trait will only effect units that have a penalty during day time
Hi,
I've got some working code but it recreates (overwrites) an existing menu item at the start of each scenario.
Whilst this all works I was wondering if there was a test for the existence or not of a menu item with a specific id?
Sort of a equivalent for menu items.
No big deal, just curious.

Hey all, I'm new to WML and have been studying the basics to create a simple modification add-on.
Before I get to the meat of the add-on, though, I'd like to setup a proper debugging workflow that would allow me to develop faster, more easily and more correctly.
I'm trying to create a complex animation sequence when spawning a unit. Here's what I want to achieve:
1. Spawn a unit on the map
2. Play the unit's recruit animation (900ms duration)
3. During this sequence:
- Fire a projectile (300ms duration)
- Trigger the target's defend animation ~150ms...
I'm trying to create a critical hit damage thing but the damage doesn't reset to the base damage of the unit after every strike, or in other cases doesn't even increase the damage
is there a simple way to randomize the order of units stored in an array via ?
This is my code, the only issue is when playing it is painfully obvious, that there is a set order whenever this code is called
in case it is important this is the longer version of my code
