Useful WML Fragments

Most of the things found here are macros (see PreprocessorRef) that must be copied into a scenario file or another file included first by the campaign, and then used in the scenario (or multiplayer map). Remember that a macro cannot be used at a point before it is defined.

Some things not to do here:

  • Don't add macros that duplicate things in the core macro library.
  • Don't add macros that are trivial syntax shortcuts.
  • Don't add macros that generate unbalanced syntax fragments.

Try to avoid adding pages here. It is better to find a category in which your code fits and add it to that page.

Logic Structure Macros

  • WML Utilities: Macros to assist other macros. Filter by Terrain. Iterate. Overlay with Filter. Determine Opposite Coordinates.

Campaign Tools

  • Victory Conditions: Number of Villages, Amount of Gold. Suitable for multiplayer scenarios.

Music Tools

  • WML Musical Moods: Groups the Wesnoth music (as of 1.7.x) into "moods" and defines macros for playing randomly songs from these pools and for quickly switching music.

  • WML Abilities: Knockback. Charm. Bloodlust. Abilities cannot currently be incorporated in the unit type definitions themselves, but must be included in the scenario file.
  • WML Buildings: Generic Buildings, Light House/Dark Tower, Wishing Well #1, Wishing Well #2.
