Creating Campaign On Non Rooted Android Device

Post by DEAD-HEAD »

So Wesnothians I have a non rooted Android device which I don't want to root,but I want to make a Single Player Campaign on my device.

I already made Scenario and Map file and placed it in data/campaign/(name)/mapsANDscenario.But I did not added unit folder or "_main" file and when I tried to load that Campaign it did not appeared in my list.

So I wanted to ask is it possible to make a whole Campaign of Scenarios on Non Rooted Device which on forum has said to extract saves which is not possible.If yes,I would appreciate a short point wise guide.

And advance elements like text dialogues,special items,trail maps or different objectives like to acquire a item or survive or kill certain number of enemies just like variety presented in Heir To The Throne(Core) Campaign.

Please also paste a link on forum for necessary set of WML to be learned.

Thanks!

Without _main.cfg your addon is not loaded.

Android uses same WML as computer, so no special requirements.

What is this _main.cfg file exactly?

_main.cfg is the only file wesnoth reads without _main.cfg telling it to load another.

Writing code ( which is what you must do you in order to create a campaign) is usually an annoying thing to do on any mobile device whether rooted or not, even if you somehow attach a real keyboard to your phone probably won't work well because if the display size. So to.answwe your question: while it could be possible in theory, it's just not practicable.
Scenario with Robots SP scenario (1.11/1.12), allows you to build your units with components, PYR No preperation turn 1.12 mp-mod that allows you to select your units immideately after the game begins.

You can use the Create link at the top of this page to find out more about campaigns or scenarios, or to get a complete WML tutorial. You can also download WML_Guide from the add-on server to get a short example campaign that you can modify and expand. It also has notes in the code telling you how it works.

Actually my main problem is that I can't access
.wesnoth1.14 folder because my device ain't rooted(open) so I can't play a Scenario I created because I can't add it in that folder and so I haven't starting with coding
