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 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...
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...
I'm trying make a weapon special that multiplies the weapon damage by 3x whenever it defends against an attacker using the charge special on its own weapon:
It's not working, it's behaving in erratic manner against attacks that have nothing to do with the charge special. What is wrong with the...
If a goal is defined for a side, then it will appear twice in the debug game inspector. anyone knows why?
And will this affect modify_ai action=delete goal?
Edit: How do I delete a goal anyway, what is the correct path?
I have name=protect_unit and the following didn't work.
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...
How to make new unit with movement type can move to lava.. . help.
I want to create new type movement unit with animation , if my unit standby on lava. too.. :roll:
When I noticed nemaraa using delay on messages I got the idea that an automatic continue feature for messages would be nice too.
Basically I would want the message displayed only for a given amount of seconds. With milliseconds even animations would be possible. Any chance for such a feature?
is a new tag in 1.13.7 which allows you to remove previously applied objects. It's really useful, but either I'm not sure how it works or it has problems.
It seems fine in simple cases (adding and subtracting moves, resistances, etc), but there's a potential bug when it is used multiple times - as...
Is there a way to make a weapon special that adds back to the attacking unit some movement points at the end of the attack? I've found some some solutions but they were hackish and weren't weapon specials, they were abilities.
I'm not sure if this is a regression bug or it's been this way before and I'm mistaken about it. But I seem to remember that in wesnoth 1.14.5, when a unit with less than maximum hitpoints is placed on the recall list, and then recalled back, it retains being not fully healed.
This thread will contain smaller questions on how to code certain things since I am still at the beginning. Technically I have someone to ask about such things but I don't want to bother him always and figured the best way to handle this is to make these public.
I've had a couple of persons assuming that a user placed done with alt+l during the game can be carried over from scenario to scenario.
Is it possible to store all labels of a given map in order to use them in the next scenario, regardless if they were placed by WML or by the player during the game?
I made a scenario. and in that scenario on each side there is no leader. I bring up the units at each turn. but on the alliance side. they don't want to move to attack. how to get them all to be able to attack aggressively?? :doh:
I am just a novice when it comes to programming code, but recently I have built my own campaign with 13 scenarios sucessfully. E.g. I used the moveto , die or time over events as well as the victory when enemies defeated key to bring each scenario to an end.
Now I want to create...
Hi all! so I was just wondering what is the deal with this bug here. I was attempting to load a scenario from a separate but co-dependent addon, but it keeps getting kicked from the server :(
Hello!
So I was just wondering if there is a limit to how many options ( tags) you can have in a message. Currently I have over 1000 from what im guessing and everytime I try and add another set of them, it doesn't allow me to do so.
each one of the macros below accounts for 16 tags so its...
Once again hi all.
So I am attempting to optimize my load times and help my add-ons that rely on each other not crash wesnoth on lower end PC's, in order to attempt to do that I've been researching a lot of optimization options. One of which options would be to use the and tags.
While I get the...
I try to make add-ons compatible with SP and MP.I delete the #ifdef MULTIPLAYER and #endif and then change the type to hybrid,and it success with almost all the add-ons,but with healing Tent and Raze and Rebuild ann-ons by Eagle 11,It shows me this:
Hi I was just wondering if leaving text that the engine wont read slows the game down. Ive been experiencing exponential amounts of engine slowdown and I know it's not my computer since I can run games like pubg and ark at full graphical settings and have 0 issues. But I was wondering if things...
Hey so I was just wondering if theres a better way of disabling certain set_menu_items on specific terrain than actually going in and typing in every single code. For example, I know that you can disable the menu item from showing up on terrain that follows Ww^* or *^Bw|r, but I was just wondering...
Hello! I am currently trying to figure out what code I will need to make units teleport from anywhere on the map to another location without having to be in a specific location. My goal is to be able to have all of the units from sides 1-4 to be able to teleport to a new location together at the...
Hello, I've been a devoted Wesnoth player for years and years, and have recently taken an interest in learning how to design campaigns. After some google searching I have found that I need to learn how to code using WML. I have very little experience with coding in general, only knowing how to use...
Is it possible to check the terrain type of a coordinate and than save it in a variable? I need this for a random encounter, with changing maps.
I haven't found anything so far within the wiki and I'd appreciate your help.
Hello so I have been attempting to figure out how to filter a unit that is killed by set_menu_items. the initial filter to make sure the correct unit works; as I simply use x,y=$x1,$y1. however after the unit has been killed, I fire a custom event that is supposed to reward players for making the...
