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...
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
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 created an illustration of a huge puddle of green slime and I figured-out how to make it appear on my map. So far, so good. Toward the end of the scenario, however, I want the puddle to go away, revealing the floor underneath. I tried a few things, but either the slime remained visible, or the...
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.
In my scenario, I have a cut-scene where an Orcish Assassin moves adjacent to a Giant Scorpion, and then the Giant Scorpion kills the Orcish Assassin. The Giant Scorpion does not get damaged in the so-called battle.
How do I make the Giant Scorpion use its attack animation for its pincer attack?...
My first time writing here so I apologize if something is wrong in the formatting.
I was trying to paint that section of the map with cave wall but when I run this it replaces only one tile (the first) as if the foreach loop stopped on the first element.
I'm trying to code a possession ability and for that I need to grant vision around a unit to a side that doesn't control that unit.
For some reason the code I've written doesn't work though.
I would be happy if someone could tell me what I did wrong.
Looking to make a specific type of unit on the enemy side not be able to move at all from their position throughout the scenario. In a previous scenario I have successfully used the following code to freeze an ai leader, but I would like to rework this code to work on other enemies....
I'm trying to have a unit be replaced by a different unit but retain name and traits (and possibly objects), but I can't get it to work. I'm sure I saw the structure of stored unit arrays somewhere on the wiki but I'm not finding it.
The name works fine, as one would expect, but I can't seem to...
Hi. I need a unit to change their facing without moving into a new hex. The unit needs to remain where they are, but facing sw instead of se . It's for a cut-scene between two units speaking to one another.
I even tried , to force the screen to update the units, thinking that might help. But no...
For Mac users, I made a TextWrangler/BBCode syntax highlighter (with limited support for the function menu as well). The plist file in the download is generated by a simple Python script so that it hilites full tags rather than just the tag-name (thus preventing tag-names from being hilited in...
I want to make a unit that can literally walk through enemy units, so that it becomes practically impossible to trap that unit. Even if you surround it with 6 level 3s it can just walk through them and escape. Is there a way to do that?
First post here, very new to coding Wesnoth campaigns, but limited coding experience outside it, and years of playing this game have given me the urge to create a campaign.
I have attempted to follow the instructions as laid out in the wiki, but I will admit i may have been overly...
I'm using to cause 1 damage per turn to all units on side 1. If a unit dies from , I want a Fungal Monster to appear on the hex where the unit died. Other varieties of deaths should not trigger the Fungal Monster.
I made the sprite for a unit with wings, then team-colored the wings. I'd like the wings to be semi-transparent; unfortunately, team colors only work when I make the wings opaque. The wings don't look as good when they're opaque, though.
Evidently semi-transparent team colors is do-able. Is there...
A have a unit named Moho on side 1. Also on side 1 are units with a special plague type called fungal plague. I want Moho to gain experience whenever an enemy unit is killed by any side 1 unit using their fungal plague attack. I've tried many different filters and variations, and I can't get it...
I'm trying to make a weapon special that has the attacking unit move through (and end up behind) the enemy using and , but doesn't allow movements that wouldn't otherwise be possible unless there is no other way.
Is there a way to allow a unit to pass through enemy units as if they were allies or...
Like many people, I transition between maps within a scenario via this method: {FADE_TO_BLACK}, , {FADE_IN}. Are there faster or more visually interesting alternatives?
Have you ever used a terrain mask to rapidly switch to a new map within a scenario? How?
I am playing around with turn limits in players vs player games (PvP).
It appears that when the turn limit is reached or that time over event is fired, a nice dialog is showing giving a computer generated estimation on the status of the game. Like in the attached picture.
The map for the second scenario is Map_2. Map_2 is 25x10 hexes.
The map for the third scenario is Map_3. Map_3 is also 25x10 hexes.
Map_3 is exactly due west of Map_2. The maps overlap by 5 hexes. The player's keep is located in those overlapping hexes.
