ux/ui problem #1: addon factions/classes + addons campaigns

Post by needmoreplayers »

whole campaign thing is a fuking mess:

absoutley needs much better ui ux overhaul and redesign

'singplayer campaigns' does not work in 'mutiplayer', sometimes they do ???

0 indication of which are singplayer campaigns and which are not

some campaigns are singplayer and more than 1 player

nobody knows if those work in 'mutiplayer' > local

or 'mutiplayer' > join offi or not

wow endless problems that hasnt been fixed

and theres 0 info about this anywhere, nothing is updated or improved, theres no list anywhere of any of these things being fixed or improved or when they are or going to be or anything yikes




unanswered:

how basically do the factions/classes addons work

unanswered:

across all addon campaigns

unanswered:

and across all default campaigns



am not going to go and test every single combo of

factions/classes addon X

with campaign Y



unanswered:

how basically do the factions/classes addons work
across all addon campaigns
and across all default campaigns

and why is there no consistency or standards with all that
is it a wesnoth code or process or wesnoth procedure problem or what exactly
or is it all the above

some map/campaigns have preset units and it doesnt say in the addon no factions/classes eras will work with that campaign/map


unanswered:

like i wanted to make units for factions/classes at the beginning
and campaigns for that factions/classes later on

if my code for factions/classes sucks and doesnt work with various campaigns, is that my fault or is it campaign makers fault? or both?

and this was literally the only reason/motivation for me to learn any form of code



for example
one of the addons that changes or adjusts units works in some campaigns/maps, but shows errors in others

saurian pack -
this started to show the multiple unit id error in certain, but not all, addon campaigns/maps

its having that error in 'create game' (aka: mutiplayer) in both 'local game' and 'join offical' of 'mutiplayer'.

in mutiplayer also had to change 'network' player to 'local player' why in the world would need to do that when other campaign/maps/games do not need to change that?



some map/campaigns have preset units and it doesnt say in the addon no factions/classes eras will work with that campaign/map

cant use any of the factions/classes addons when dont know what they work with

many of the map/campaigns would need the factions/classes addons to be playable and interesting and fun and playable

Campaigns tend to give you fixed recruit list, factions are not used. There are examples like custom campaign that let you use any faction.
