Legend of the Invincibles

[Spaghooti]

For some reason, waiting for reinforcements to arrive (which ends the scenario) seems to let me continue, while killing the enemy boss brings up the error. Weird, but at least I can continue

[dwarftough]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to report this, but I get the error:
"Warning: broken campaign branches", saying that the scenario 05_Umbra is missing. What do I do to fix this?

Which version of Wesnoth and LotI do you have? In which scenario does it appear?

Wesnoth version 1.16.11, LotI version 3.2.7c

It appears in the scenario Darkness Closing In, in Part 1 of the campaign

Can you proceed to the next scenario? I tried opening it myself and didn't see any warning, and proceeding to the next scenario works fine for me

I just reloaded my save and killed the enemy leader again and I didn't get the error... weird. Whatever may have caused it seems to have fixed itself.

I decided to try the beta version, so I downloaded Wesnoth 1.17.24 and installed LotI. Among other things, I repeatedly get an error
"wesnoth.fire_event has been deprecated indefinitely.; (Note: You should use wesnoth.game_events.fire instead in new code)."

I got nowhere google searching for what that really means. Can anyone point me to some guidance on what it means, and thus how I (or someone else) can go about fixing it in the github code?

It is wesnoth telling dugi that he needs to change one of the function he is using in the lua code of the campaign.

IIRC, that's a warning, not an error, and wesnoth.game_events.fire isn't available for 1.16.

Turn off debug mode?

[Celtic_Minstrel]

It's nothing you need to worry about. Either disable debug mode, or disable deprecation logging in the advanced preferences. (I think the logging preferences aren't saved though so you might need to do that every time you open Wesnoth, unless you want to create a shortcut that passes the appropriate logging parameter.)

[dwarftough]

Yeah, I remember it has been tried to start replacing to wesnoth.game_events.fire but it soon turned out that this lua method isn't available on 1.16 so it had to be reverted. Creating a new branch for 1.17 specific changes in the LotI repository might be a solution ofc

Thanks, that's what I needed to understand.

For a more overt bug, Dugi's Ward and Dugi's Wrath don't appear in my crafting window. If I go into crafting.lua and change the item number limits from 560 to 561 and 600 to 601, they do appear. That's odd, as it sure looks like the for loops there should include the last value, but clearly they don't.

The numbers_between function is documented as returning a half-open interval. So it includes the first value but not the last value.

Thank you for the extremely well explained answer. I had no idea where to start looking. But now I do for next time!

Whew I finished the campaign last night... took me about ~3 months. Not bad for a piece of free entertainment. Thanks very much to Dugi and all the contributors!

On the flip side I'm utterly spoiled now, and want items and extensive AMLA trees for all the scenarios I play. I may just play it all again, now that I understand the systems and story better than I did before - I ended up not using a whole bunch of my cool potions and did very little crafting (other than Dugi's Wrath in the very last chapter, which I'm not sure I could have beat it without) because I kept fearing all my characters and items would get wiped like they do at various times.

Yeah, there's that.

There are three spinoffs, but the 1.16 ports haven't been released yet AFAIK (they're done, if you really want them you can get them from git).

In the meantime, here's some other non-standard campaigns you may enjoy. I left a few out as I can't recall their names. The first on in particular is a little, different.

Adding to white_haired_uncles list, there are the campaigns by revansurik, which feature multiple protagonists with their own AMLA trees.
A Song of the Winds
A Song of Fire
War of the Jewel
Soldier of Wesnoth (sadly not on 1.16 :c)
Aria of the Dragon Slayer

[Josh]

Thanks for the suggestions! I've played a few of those, though will note that Aria of the Dragon Slayer currently has a bug in 1.16 that makes it unfinishable (I posted about it in its thread about a bit back, don't think anyone's had the time to fix it yet).

It's honestly incredibly impressive that people put so much work into these games for little more than a few thanks in these forums.
