Terrain - Removing village healing

[Aucrin-Ix-Seis]

Hello there.
I want to modify the current definition of some terrains inside my custom campaign, specifically the villages definition to remove their healing effects. But I don't know what would be the preferred approach: should I modify (in some way which I haven't clear) the core definition of the terrain? Or should I define a new terrain type altogether using the same images of the core villages?

Village healing is set in the [terrain_type] tags. You can see them in /data/core/terrain.cfg. You will have to define your own [terrain_type] for each kind of village you need without the line that sets the healing.

Thanks a lot. It worked like a charm. I needed to add the last macro to ensure the terrain kept the appearance.
This is the result:

Code: Select all

	[terrain_type]
		symbol_image=village/human-city-tile
		id=MfaW_City_Village
		name= _"Village"
		editor_name= _"Human City (no healing)"
		string=^Zhc
		aliasof=_bas, Vt
		default_base=Rr
		editor_group="wesnoth-MfaW"
	[/terrain_type]
	{NEW:VILLAGE_TOD *^Zhc village/human-city}

That's not even a village anymore, since you removed not only heals=8 but also gives_income=yes. If that's what you wanted, then that's fine, it just didn't sound like it was.

Yeah, to tell you the truth it's behaving exactly as I intended. I removed the income per village for each 'side' to prevent them to affect the gold values, but this is a better solution.
I only have this weird error now:

Code: Select all

20240216 10:46:52 error config: Error while loading the map: Unknown tile in map: (Rr^Zhc) 'Rr^Zhc

But it's not fatal, the scenarios are usable.

It's usually a bad idea to ignore errors that don't seem to affect the game. It might work on your system, but not somebody else's, or it may only work most of the time.

It sounds to me like you are loading the scenarios before you load the terrain_type definition. If that's the problem, you probably just need to change the order in _main.cfg.

Done. No related errors now in the add-on. Thank you.
