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:

I installed the 1.18 version off of flathub, instead of the 1.19 version off of fedora (registry.fedora.org) and the specific crash during an attack is not reproducible.
tried to use [remove_object] in place of [remove_unit_overlay] as adviced here: https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth/comm ... 5ad2a46271

Hello, I am compiling Wesnoth 1.18.5 for Ubuntu and ran into some problems.

I am running into issues with wayland and wesnoth crashing while running under xwayland (I assume that's how it's running anyway) since updating Fedora KDE to the latest version where wayland is enforced. This issue was not present before when I was running under X11, and occurs when...

I was not even aware it is possible to play wesnoth on xwayland already. Guess I have to try
this eventually. Are there many wesnoth developers testing on wayland?
Apologies for my cluelessness but in a multiplayer game map I keep being out of sync when recruiting units, or when my allies recruit units. The era is ageless with many other mods installed, but I am sure I am up to date, and in no way did I try to modify the mod files myself.
I took a picture of...

What mods do you have installed and what mods were enabled in this game? Also a replay of the game might be handy
Further info: When computer goes to sleep while Wesnoth active, cooling fan comes on, which indicates to me that sometime recursive might be going on, but what do I know?

Ok, so generate_river_internal recurses a bit too much so you can run out of stack space. Looks like it recurses for every river hex. We should rewrite that to tail call recursion or really no recursion.
Hi everyone, I recently tried multiplayer against the AI (in a campaign scenario) and noticed the AI keeps spamming units heavily in the early turns — which often overwhelms my formation and leaves me falling behind. I’ve tried playing on Easy but it still happens.
I wanted to ask:
Is there any...

I agree with beetlenaut that it's better to try to beat the scenario rather than simply make it easier.

There are many, many factors involved and it can be a tad confusing putting them togther to begn...

The problem still exists today. Apparently the screensaver-disabling logic is only turned off on macos:
wesnoth-1.18.5/src/macosx/SDLMain.mm: setenv ("SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER", "1", 1);
Launching wesnoth with this variable manually set fixes the issue of wesnoth messing up xidle.

Yep, *clean* install worked fine.
I don't normally install on top of older versions but was updating both stable and dev and must've forgotten to cleardown the dev folder.
Anyway, all sorted now and my fault, v1.19.14 is fine.
Thanks again.
Cheers!

I’m running Debian 12.11 KDE and just installed wesnoth 1:1.16.9-1 all installed ok however when I tried to exit the game it will not I can only get out by doing a hard reset.
Last post
What does hard reset mean? You need to reboot your device? If so then it's unlikely wesnoth can do anything about that. Sounds like an OS or hardware issue.
I suggest rather installing and playing wesnoth.1.18 instead, btw.

Hi,
Was running through Northern Rebirth v1.19.11 on Windows 11 and in Clearing the Mines when the ghouls etc. spawn, one spawned in a cave wall as shown in the partial screen grab below.

This was the only unit that was spawned out of the swamp.
I’ve registered an account but can’t join the official server. I’m playing this game for the first time ever.
After pressing “Join Official Server,” I wait and then see a connection timeout error.

It says, the version of wesnoth is 1.19.11, and it announce what is the update, but when I play the game, it still says 1.18.5
I'm excited for "The Deceiver’s Gambit" update, but when I open the game, it still “Delfador’s Memoirs”, maybe because it still says 1.18.5 i guess?
can anyone help me?...

Perhaps there needs to be a distinction or more clarity between the update posts on Steam - I imagine many players aren't necessarily familiar with the even/odd stable/development branch convention. I remain on stable on Steam but I also get update messages for development.
Play the subject scenario to see this behaviour, unsure if specific conditions are needed but it seems to be consistent. As described, one of the enemy leaders will simply recruit one keep of units, then not move any of them until one of your units moves within...
