I have posted a patch for MP Lobby Lag Profiling to patches.wesnoth.org It seems that network is not the problem afterall (by my test results). However, I'd be interested to see what other people's results show. https://gna.org/patch/index.php?666 ( mp_lobbylag.patch ) It's easier to paste results ...

Re: Performace Issue: Lobby Lag

1) Benchmarking Lobby Lag The way I've been testing it is very unprofessional. I was just logging into a busy lobby and clicking the quick replay checkbox repeatedly and then counting the seconds where it didn't respond. What you are measuring is the lag in GUI response time. That is, the time betw...

Re: Traitor's Island 2v2

I'm looking for feedback on this crazy little map. It is an attempt to recreate an old 2v2 map that I enjoyed a lot. If you know the old one, please post it. Are you referring to Rhuvaen's Island of Fury ? The teams are also 1 and 4 vs. 2 and 3. [map] WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW...

why can't we save our nicks together with our own profile and in that profile we can save a single unit for example so that we will be able to use the recall feature in multiplayer games? What's the point? We're not talking about level 60 shadow mages here--most recalled units in everyone's "p...

It doesn't fit. The ulfserker and berserker are considered multiplayer units. Since it is very hard to keep them alive long enough to level during campaigns, campaign developers don't care to use them. My prediction is that you would see almost none of these "battleragers" in multiplayer, ...

Two? One... First of all: the Crossbowman does not get less powerful. It will lose it's fire attack, but like I said the other attack could be upgraded to 9-3. So if you do not need fire attacks the Crossbowman would be more powerful than it is now. And if you do need fire attacks you can choose th...

Neo, of course, was not trained by anyone, including himself - for in the age of myth and legend, the great Hephaestus thrust his spear into the rib of Zeus, and neoriceisgood did spring forth, fully formed and talented. It looked something like this . Indeed. "The sprites and pixeled art lay ...

Your grammar is making it very difficult for me to understand what you were trying to say. At this point, I can't even guess.

Why must this unit have a branch at all? I can't see what ability a branch would offer, other than two unnecessary fire shooters that were split from the already-not-so-powerful crossbowman and slurbow.

I'd say this would be a nice feature if the opponent had the option of refusing your surrender. It would be a good way to formalize the negotiation. If a surrender is accepted, the player's units should disappear and a dialog should say something like "Hot shame burns in your eyes as you lay d...

Re: Backstab for orcish assasins

What do you think about giving backstab(meele atack) for orcish assiasin, raise his price by 1-3 gold and decrease slayers atack by 1-3. I think it is realistic and it will make that weak 8-1 atack at least sometimes not useless, but slayers atack (11-2) should be decreased by 1-3 to dont overpower...

It doesn't exist yet (you're the first person to create a walkthrough for it.) Create a page on the Wiki called [[InvasionOfEliador]] or [[Invasion of Eliador]] and link to it from UserScenarios#Invasion_of_Eliador.

Wikify, I say

Put it on the wiki under its appropriate campaign so others can comment on it and modify it months after this topic disappears. (Same goes for everyone who's been posting walkthroughs on the forums as of late.)
