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:

Can you reproduce the issue on the host as well? It sounds like it might be related to virtualization.

If you are running an appropriate operating system or Wesnoth build, then you can provide even more information in your bug report by including a backtrace of the game’s call stack, which can help us pinpoint the cause of the bug faster.

This is an alternate account of my main account, momom2.
I tried logging into the official server, but it didn't work. It gives me an incorrect password error - I tried copy-pasting and copying by hand, neither worked. I'm supposed to input my forum password, right?
Last post
A friend of mine, with whom I play regularly on the official server has never had this problem as far as I know. He's playing on Windows, I'm on Linux. I suppose it shouldn't matter, maybe it's just a coincidence or maybe that's a hint?
Hi everyone,
I’m encountering a rather odd issue in multiplayer: even though my FPS remains stable and there’s no visible packet loss, turns occasionally feel delayed or slightly out of sync (units respond a fraction late, especially in larger maps).
What makes it tricky is that:
CPU/GPU usage is...

Hi,
You may be referring to what I think is a feature not a bug: When I used to play cooperative multiplayer games with my ex, I noticed that we only see our moves past the point when they cannot be undone.
Some unit moves can be undo'ed, if they didn't reveal a new part of map or shroud and didn't...

Confirming the issue is resolved and should be available in the next releases for both 1.18 and 1.19.
I have a mod I published in 2018 that I have unfortunately lost the source and server.pbl file for.
I've started up development again and I would like to know if anyone can help me get access to the password I set up originally in the server.pbl so I can release an update.
Many thanks,
Andrew

You probably dont need to upload it for 2018 addon server anyways. Just create new pbl file.
It must have been at least 15 years, if not 20, since I played this game last, when I was reminded about it the other day. I am looking forward to dive into it again!

good luck a suggestion you could try is make sure Wesnoth app or program is allow through your fire wall, also if you use a ip blocker make sure ips are allow also.
I keep getting this pop-up every time I try to join the official servers. I can't host or join other people's games, everything I've tried thus far - remove all add-ons and data, downloading the game directly, and allowing it through the fire wall - all didn't work

In the second file, it has this: So it looks like there's potentially something wrong with your connection or DNS where it for some reason becomes unable to find Wesnoth's servers.
