The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Rather than copy+paste, I'll just link to what Gambit just said : http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php ... 68#p470668

Ehhh, it's hard enough to get the essentials done (notice how I'm failing now), so it's hard to promise anything for dev versions. I plan to stick with the stable Wesnoth releases, but I might be able to find the time to see what's up with Wesband on 1.8.

Yes, they do get less efficient to a degree. I'm actually working on the magic system right now, so that's on my mind at the moment. What I've got going for now is a system where mana is only expended to the extent that you're actually using the magic. For example, the way it currently is, if you cu...

Dear KylePoole,

You are an awesome, awesome porting machine.

Sincerely,

A little off-color, but it gives you an idea: http://www.pbfcomics.com/?cid=PBF220-Passed_On.jpg

No real need for this in mainline, but I just wanted to add that some people have worked on this for UMC. For example: http://www.wesnoth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=19484

I ended up doing the ethnography on the nerd club (fantasy, anime, gaming, sci-fi) on my college's campus. It wasn't very difficult as I ended up hanging out with them a lot later. I definitely took the easy way out. I kind of regret it if just for that. Again, lots of luck with this project.

Interesting. I also did an ethnography while an undergrad and almost did it on the subject of an online gaming community, but was scared that it would be too difficult. As far as your subject goes, I'd like to point out that there is more than one type of "user" for Wesnoth. Some of us pla...

Yeah, before anything like this happens, we would need poison to work like heals (i.e. uncoupled from a constant value). As an option, I'd would suggest giving a cured_with or cured_threshold key which makes it so a unit is poisoned with a poison that has cured_with=X, then that unit gets cured if i...

Other than the first_time_only key, it look good to me. Are you saying this doesn't work or are you just unsure if it will work?

The RANDOM macro works. Also, if you want to use other variables, you can use the rand key within VARIABLE_OP, i.e. {VARIABLE_OP foo rand "0..2"} .

Yeah, that's something I should disable until there is ToD in the dungeon (we're planning to have light sources at some point) or until there is combat in the overworld. It's always been my priority to mirror the mainline units as much as possible, but sometimes I don't think that Wesband isn't read...

OK, just making sure. Totally agreed.

I thought the whoe point was that it isn't a flash platformer.
