units.wesnoth.org update frequency

Post by Atreides »

It was last updated June 16. It used to update weekly (on Thursdays at 2 am I think) but now is either on a new schedule or broken.

Just wondering what the situation is, it's a very useful resource.

It's dead...for a while now. I dont it use for reference anymore.

It's also not reliable since it doesn't show any changes made with [modify_unit_type] or others. Plus, I have noticed that 1.15.x and 1.16.x entries are clumped together and this has caused certain addons to not even load in it.

I was also wondering what the plans were for getting a page up there for 1.17.x would be?

It sort of requires some updates before page for 1.17.x can be made. Such as allowing IPF functions to render images there, as well as recognising customised advancements. Till those issues are resolved, it's silly and pointless to make a new UWO page. Also, some UMC do cause the units.wesnoth.org to crash client browsers as well.

For a while now? You mean before it stopped which was only a few weeks ago? Confused.

Yeah I also found that some things did not get displayed such as using the mainline macro to extend Wolf levels. 15 and 16 mixed together also? Did not know that.

Even with its flaws I did find it helpful though. Any info on why it is kaputt?

allefant is the main person dealing with it. I expect you need to post to viewtopic.php?t=46324 to be noticed.
