We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...
The thread for changes from 1.10 to 1.12 is here .
Deprecated or removed feature:
The FOREACH macro is deprecated, use instead
The ABILITY_LEADERSHIP_LEVEL_1 ..5 macros are deprecated and are now aliases for the new more general ABILITY_LEADERSHIP macro.
The ~BRIGHTEN() (which was...

Here you can find configuration files to enable WML syntax highlighting for various text editors :
Gedit (and other Gnome based editors): Has full WML support and partial inline lua support.
wml.lang goes in /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs .
cobalt-wml.xml goes in...
The purpose of this thread is to provide links to particularly useful information and code examples of WML and Lua on the wiki, without cluttering up this forum with more and more stickies. As such, the wiki pages linked here should be kept working and up to date - if an unmodified piece of example...
Does you campaign produce obscure WML errors on startup and you don't know what line in your 2000 lines of WML causes it? Instead of going through everything line by line and try to spot the mistake you've made, or before posting your entire campaign on the forums in the hopes that someone wants to...
I'm writing to announce a development feature that I hope will help to solve two problems.

So, if you have an idea for a test, whether or not it's based on your add-on, please consider submitting it to us. We will continue to write tests ourselves, but to get the full benefit we...
People often use WML attribute or tag names that are misspelled or just plain fictitious when trying to debug WML — or even tag structures that (to the trained eye) are logical to the writer but have no basis in reality. You should always look up the proper format first, and we have a dedicated...
is it somehow possible to make an animation of storm hitting certain hex? I mean animation of Delfador's range attack, but without Delfador's presence. :D
For a mod I'd like to change the control over a player's side to the ai for the movement of some units and then back to the player.
The first thing I thought of was simply switch the control of the side to controller=ai at the beginning of the turn and then give it over to the player once the AI...
I wish create an , that has it's effect not on the advancing unit, but some other units when it selected.
I see that accepts a argument, but doesn't seem to work - the advancement seems to force its effects only on the advancing unit, so using a filter with another unit means it won't match...
Hello guys, I have an issue with modifying AI behavior in the middle of scenario.
To illustrate the situation: I'm making scenario, where dwarves fight vs. trolls and the player have to go around. But at one certain moment, dwarves change their mind and they start to go after player.
I just want to know what parts of code have influence on game speed?
Am I correct if I think that more sides equals slower game?
(I put two extra sides into my scenario and the game became slower.)
Hi, I made an ability that lets a unit respawn at the location of one of the other units of it's faction upon death.
I worked out most of the kinks, but one problem I still have is that the AI seems to 100% prioritize the unit with this ability.
This leads to the AI basically being locked into...
So, I was going to upload one of my campaigns to the 1.14 server, but it won't accept because the path to the icon image is invalid. I haven't changed anything about icon image in the .pbl file, and in previous versions there was no such problem. I tried cropping...
I created a modification that allows the player to heal or harm any unit on the map with a right-click menu.
The idea is to show these menu items only when the player has typed in :debug
How do I make it appear only after the user switches to :debug?
I tried surrounding the event code with...
I don't understand the actual purpose of . I think I understand that it is intended to be used in conjonction with and , but why? Is it only to spare processor power, since actually moving a unit must be costly? Or are there cases where we can, or should , only move a unit fakely ?
Hi,
I'm looking at Sceptre_of_Fire: 1_A_Bargain_is_Struck.cfg and there is an event called scenario_end.
I was unable to find any documentation about it in the wiki (EventWML,ScenarioWML).
Could you please add if this is a synced event or not on the EventWML page. I'm guessing it's not.
I am using the Wolves MAI in one of my campaigns. This AI manages several groups of bandits (I don't use multi pack, the different bandits bands are just different sides). They're chasing traders (who use goto MAI), and the player has to protect the traders.
I'd like to remove that restriction in an event, but I can't see how to put tags in an event, or how to direct it to the correct side if I could. Anyone have any ideas?
I have a pickupable object that needs to show a different string depending the unit's gender. Is there a way of doing that without having to define the same object twice with 2 descriptions inside an unit.gender?
I'm about ready to publish a campaign, so it's time to make a _server.pbl. I'd like to put that in my git repo - I think title, description and especially dependencies should be versioned. But committing the passphrase is a bad idea. Is there a way around this issue, or do I have to suck it up and...
This thread is intended to list ideas as diverse as possible on how to design a HARD(er) difficulty, for game authors to stop relying mostly or even only on the (in)famous gold parameter ;-). I tried below to be as clear and specific as possible, since vague or obscure hints do not help as...
I'm trying to make all units with a certain trait summon a specific unit when they die, like their soul is going out of their body to continue fighting. So it would be just like Plague but not depending on what weapon delivered the killing blow and with the summoned unit being on the same...
Hi, I've been working on a three scenario campaign and I have a problem.
By default, a Wolf can't advance to Lvl 2 Great Wolf, so I implemented the following code to allow Wolf advancement:
extra_defines=ENABLE_WOLF_ADVANCEMENT
I placed the code within in the main.cfg, and it works, but only on...
I just discovered , see here . It stores in WML variables unit cost, next-cost (most costly advancement), health, xp %, and an enigmatic unit_worth . What is its meaning and formula?
Thank you!
All factions are remade with existing base units but adding some lower levels and giving 5 levels to great races units and 3 levels to animals (Falcons, gryphons, spiders etc.)
Bandits are no longer with dwarves but with orcs. Dwarves can recruit spiders now....
I have the problem that one of my macros isn't found when preprocessing the scenario. The macro is in the same file, above where it's called, it's spelled correctly and the number of arguments is correct. Therefore, I'm pretty sure there is a mistake inside the macro but so far I wasn't able to...
So I got a macro that should randomly make one part of the map desert. Which happens - theoretically - by giving that part's coordinates to the macro shown below.
Unfortunately the macro doesn't work - it seems the first part with foreach loop will make almost the complete map desert while the...
Some time ago, for my UMC Campaign, I created a Unitmarker system, which lets you label your units, to make it easier to keep track of important ones, that you don't want to lose. (because of a special trait combination, or an item that was given to it for example)
Then I saw, that Admant14...
