The Bees Journey [Version 1.3.0]

Post by Wesnoth-KameRamen »

This is the feedback and development thread for the 1.16 campaign, The Bees Journey Version 1.3.0.
TBJ is the first project in Wesnoth's history to create a campaign featuring bees.


About Version 1.3.0

Since Version 1.2.0, a number of long-neglected bugs and other problems have been fixed. The story and English text have also been revised to more closely match standard Wesnoth campaign.
Note that backward compatibility was not maintained in Version 1.2.0, but this problem has been resolved in 1.3.0.


Description

That summer, a hornets invasion brought down the Kingdom of Bees. You, the princess, must lead the bees on their journey and rebuild the kingdom.
(Intermediate Level, 20 scenarios.)


Downloading
  • Latest Version: 1.3.2
All packages are available from the official server.


Feedback

This campaign is still incomplete. If you have any problems playing, please give me feedback.
I am Japanese. I'm not good at English, so I don't know if I can improve or reply immediately, sorry.
Feedback wanted!

About the "Queen : Real Edition" (v1.2.1-)
“Queen : Real Edition” has significant changes to the units compared to the other difficulties. Units are more like real bees, with modified attack and resistance, additional special abilities, and increased evasion rates.
This edition is very experimental and I am looking for feedback.

About the Story
The story, especially the second half of the story, is still incomplete. If you have any ideas on how to make it better, please let me know.

About English Text
I am not a native English speaker and most of the English sentences in the game are created by machine translation. If you find any errors or unnatural descriptions in the English text, I would appreciate it if you could report them here.
If you could list any errors in the English text in the game or attach a corrected version of the scenario file here, I would of course be overjoyed!

Thanks :D

I recently checked the forums and read about the new version (1.3.1) of The Bees Journey.
When I began playing, the wesnoth engine printed an error: "Unknown unit type: Elder_Bee".
I checked the unit files in the insects_real folder, but couldn't find a problem. So I checked the main.cfg, and found that the insects folder was referenced twice.
#ifdef HARD
{~add-ons/The_Bees_Journey/units/insects_real} #"real" bees
#else
{~add-ons/The_Bees_Journey/units/insects} #bees
#endif
{~add-ons/The_Bees_Journey/units/bird}
{~add-ons/The_Bees_Journey/units/humans}
{~add-ons/The_Bees_Journey/units/insects} #bees again!

I commented out the second insects folder reference, which fixed the problem.

Because there are units other than bees in the insects folder, perhaps the bee files should be moved to another folder or a sub-folder of insects?
On another topic, I was wondering why the bee unit lost its fire bee/scout bee advancement lines.

Hey did you add some new music to this campaign recently? It might be worth posting it to the music forum separately so that other campaign authors can be aware of it; I like it a lot!

It means you can use their music as a BGM but you cannot distribute only their music.
