Making non-human players side 1 in campaigns

[Ken_Oh]

Why lock a thread? If it's really done, then no one will post in it. If it isn't actually done, then why not just leave it open so users don't have to make new, redundant threads. What's the use of locking it?

Anyway, here: http://www.wesnoth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10781

I'm trying to make scenarios with the human player as the highest possible team number throughout a campaign. Noyga pointed out my problem in the first scenario (I wasn't listing the sides in order).

That worked, but now I've got a new problem. I think everything is fine for the next scenario that I'm working on, but instead of putting the human player's character on #2, it switches 1 for 2. It's not even giving me an error message. Can anyone figure out if I'm doing this wrong? I think the game just isn't allowing for it on a second scenario.

(Notes: This is just a rough draft of a scenario. In the chance that the WC macro is causing a problem, I included it. Also, the player's unit is a campaign unit).

Code: Select all

Thanks.

No direct reason for the side exchange seen, just two minor things.

In the recruit list, make no spaces after the comma. Against all layout basics.
The space is treated as it belongs to the id of the unit.

I´ve never seen capitals in team names, so I don´t know if it hurts. Better don´t use any when you don´t have dire need of them.
