The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

@ Glass Pearl Player: Sorry to disagree, but I have used exactly the Wesnoth's RNG code during my test (over 1.000.000 of time), and in the test I displayed here, it was exactly an unit with 4 strike at 70% chance to hit. So no, there isn't more chance to miss all the 4 strikes, in my test, it happe...

So assuming the 17th bit has a longer period than the 2nd one, it may indeed hide the issue. The longer the period is, the better it is ;) If the period is longer, there is more randomness. True randomness have no period (infinite period if you prefer). I have written a little program to test the R...

So I wonder why conceptor of Lehmer pseudo-random generator actually recommand to not use directly modulo to scale numbers... :roll: Few years ago, I have made some test to simulate a 4d6 (4 dices of 6 faces), using 1+rand()%6, 1+(rand()>>8)%6, 1+(rand()>>16)%6. By the way 1+rand()%6 was the worst. ...

Are you sure it really happens more? The "statistics" part of the save files is there for a reason, so that you can check that it is not just your feeling. Unfortunately checking wesnoth statistic doesn't help. Imagine I attack with 2 units that have 50% chance to hit and 4 attacks. In th...

Hi! I know you don't like random generator thread, however, my purpose is not only complaining again it: I found why it is not really good random, and I have some idea about how to improve it. So please, don't lock it too early... But now, let's start to complain ;) Like many people, I have experien...

BTW they shoot first, THEN reload.
Nobody come into battle with an empty musket, then load it in the heat of battle

About technologies, dwarves always have better technology than human. So I'm sure they could have good gun, like musket.

Oups, I forgot to mention this would apply only to the ranged attack... So a nearly dead dwarf with "fast-gunner" trait will be simply killed with a melee attack. And IMO it has always been a bad idea to finish those dwarves with a ranged attack, with or without that trait :) And for the b...

Hi ! It's been a long time that I think about it... Give firststrike to all the dwarvish thunderer tree. Why ? Because shooting something with a gun is more fast than using a bow, and more fast than casting a spell. But finally, I think it would be nicer if this wasn't an ability that all dwarvish t...

Thanks a lot, but I have already fixed it for all my map.
But I'll think about it for the next time I update wesnoth

Hi ! Sorry, it's not related to word wrap... Anyway, I have found a way to fix it : open the map with wesnoth_editor, and resize the map with +2 width and height, and an offset of -1 for x and y. For example, I have got a map with a size of 40x40 in the former 1.3.x, but in 1.4.x its size is 38x38 w...

Hi ! Long time I haven't play wesnoth and work on my campaign ! I have got a little trouble with all my map... I have made them with the editor from the svn 1.3.2 version, and now, I have downloaded the last stable release (1.4.2) and all my map don't work anymore... First when I have tried to launc...

okey, thanks

It's possible to set a recall event so the player will be refunded...

yes but at least 20 gold piece is needed

Yes, in my case, some scenario follow immediatly another, and it is more logical (and more playable) that for this scenarii, recall would be totally free... I can do a massive auto-recall in WML, but the player don't nedd some kind of unit... Another problem : what if one scenario allow a unit to re...

It would be nice, if we can overide the attribut "recall_cost" in the game.cfg (in the [game_config] tag), especially in a [side] tag...
Some attribut are already there like "village_income"... what about extending it to "recall_cost" ?
