Re: Spreading Poison
Could've been a reason, but they actually did (I just retestet it to make 100% sure).
I change the code. Start wesnoth. Start the scenario via loading the right .gz loadout. There are two sides.
Infecting an enemy unit. Ending turn. Opponent turn starts. Opponent makes a few moves. At the beginning and end of turn said poisoned unit stands next to a nonpoisoned unit (beginning shouldn't matter, but it should work so...). AI ends turn. Turn counter gets incremented. Poison did not spread.
I can give you the whole scenario code if you want me to
Code: Select all
[event]
#THIS IS NONE WORKING CODE FAST READER!
name="turn end" #change this to "side turn end" to make it work
first_time_only=no
[modify_unit]
[filter]
side=$side_number
[not]
status=poisoned
[/not]
[filter_adjacent]
status=poisoned
is_enemy=no
[/filter_adjacent]
[/filter]
# Apply poisoned effect
[effect]
apply_to=status
add=poisoned
[/effect]
[/modify_unit]
[/event]
Sure thing; that's not something I would expect (most make a clever guess though and throw warnings, just saying). If there is a pure logical mistake, it can't help of course (for example what I did here by using the wrong event name).WhiteWolf wrote: ↑December 11th, 2020, 5:44 pm If you run wesnoth in a terminal on linux, there's logs in it. It's also outputted to some log.txt on windows (I don't know where, someone will need to clarify the exact location). Those logs do contain these types of warnings. But there is no way for Wesnoth to tell you problems with stuff that is not syntactically wrong. No programming language compiler can do that.
cheers; it recommends the one I am currently using (but I didn' use the theme so it helps)
Re: Spreading Poison
It's a short enough fragment to drop into a test scenario - I tried it, but for me it works just fine, as "expected". Just to clarify again: you said your scenario has 2 sides. This code will only work when side 2 ends its turn, and it will poison units only belonging to side 2, if they have a poisoned unit next to them who is an ally of side 2 (in this case, this can only be another poisoned side 2 unit).JustNatan wrote: ↑December 11th, 2020, 6:04 pm Could've been a reason, but they actually did (I just retestet it to make 100% sure).

If you still think something's not right, attach a replay where you show what sided units are standing next to which others that are supposed to get the poison, so we can understand better what you mean
What do you mean by "Start the scenario via loading the right .gz loadout."?

Re: Spreading Poison
I tried it on version 1.14 but I hope this is not the issue (in case you are using the dev version).
I am currently updating to the dev version and threw 1.14 of my harddrive (since there are some handy features in the dev version). So I can't test it right now. My download-speed is garbage so it will probably take a while before I can send you the replay. If it fixes itself by installing dev I will also report this of course.
Yes my scenario has 2 sides. And yes it should only work on adjacent units belonging to side 2 and yes it should only work when side 2 ends its turn. So yea I still think something isn't right (but it might be the version).
Till then

Re: Spreading Poison
I use 1.14 too. (Tried it on the steam release to be precise).
So that's very strange. It might indeed be a good idea to post your entire scenario file then

Re: Spreading Poison
Beware of two things:
I changed "side turn end" => "turn end"
and I switched the leader of side=1 to "Orcish Slayer" so you have a poisonous unit (usually the player would pick himself a leader in the scenario before).
I did those two changes so you do not have to work on the code before you are able to play
I hope my changes are small enough that they are correct :p since I couldn't test them (wesnoth not installed atm, but downloading)

Re: Spreading Poison
Your scenario has 3 sides, not 2.
Even if you don't fill it in, it's there for the game. Therefore the
EDIT:
Because of
Code: Select all
# Line 63 -> 66
[side]
side=3
controller=ai
[/side]
turn end
event runs when side 3 end its turn, trying to poison side 3 units, which don't exist EDIT:
Because of
Do you know about the in-gameand I switched the leader of side=1 to "Orcish Slayer" so you have a poisonous unit
:debug
command? It enables a series of shortcuts for debugging work, like creating units and etc. so changes like these are not necessary when you're just testing around.Main UMC campaigns: The Ravagers - now for 1.16, with new bugs!

Re: Spreading Poison
in that case I apologize for wasting your time ^^ I totally forgot about the third side since I was only playtesting during the first rounds... thanks alot!
Kinda, I know that it exists but haven't tried it yet. I thought it would only give some debug information, but no actual game control. Might be worth a try
Re: Spreading Poison
No worries, glad it's sorted out
Absolutely worth a try, it's a great help in speeding up your testing processes. The in-game help window's "Commands" section at the bottom contains the full "Debug Mode Commands" list that contains what each of them do. Typing
For this example, creating a unit with poison literally takes 2 seconds. Just press

help <command name>
in the ingame console can also give a description for each command. Also check out your new right-click menu options, and some of those even have hotkeys for them.For this example, creating a unit with poison literally takes 2 seconds. Just press
shift+c
(creates a unit at the position where the cursor is), start typing "Assa...", from the filtered window select Assassin and hit enter.Main UMC campaigns: The Ravagers - now for 1.16, with new bugs!
