Issues With The Final Scenarios

Ashmyr commented 2 years ago

[x] 21, Wesnoth Soldiers The geography of the scenario feels a little repetitive. I wish there was more flavor to it. Eowarand should at least have his recalls from the last encounter, since all of them dying between those 2 scenarios seems weird, lol. The rest of the scenario is fine. I completed it quick, and it was underwhelming. I wish it was harder, but it's well-written at least. Perhaps change the objectives when the leaders flee to "defeat all remaining units"?
~~22, Caverns of Flame I leveled Clarissa into a silver mage and sent her on this mission. She got recalled and every non-flagged village was visible, which was really weird and a bug. Spoiled a lot of surprise, but I think that's a game problem, not one caused by you.~~
[ ] I really liked the encounters and fighting. Getting 4 new units was neat. The layout wasn't what I was expecting but it was nice, however, 1 encounter got ruined. Somehow, for some reason, the Dragon bolted eastwards and got killed by a few Skeletal Dragons, lol. Perhaps set up more of a barrier between the 2 sides (which when the Explorer comes along he could destroy said barrier), to prevent this?

yeah @knyghtmare had a similar reaction as to the scenario ending abruptly; I was considering varying the withdrawal turn by difficulty, but he said it probably wouldn't be necessary... the part about Eowariand is basically an extension of issue #14
Hm I don't think I usually advanced Clarissa to a silver mage myself, so that's why I probably didn't see that... I'll have to check my old 1.14 saves to confirm...
The layout was basically just taken by having the map generator for HttT's Sceptre of Fire scenario generate a map for me and then saving it, lol. Well, and then adding some manual tweaks. And yeah I've had some trouble getting the Dragon to behave; I tried making it avoid the Skeletal Dragons in 2d71b55d789aa7d1c11b0154a863679973c91f46 but apparently that didn't work... Maybe I should just turn off enemy infighting entirely?

Also note that issue #8 is still open

I'm actually almost wondering if I should disable Clarissa advancing to a silver mage entirely; I've advanced her to one as of S07 ("The Bridge is Broken") on this playthrough, and her being a silver mage breaks that scenario, too... (well, kinda, it's not that bad though; it just lets her teleport back to areas you were already supposed to be done with)

...ooh, S12 ("Under Pressure"), too...

Looks like I'm running into the "two Eowariands" glitch from bug #14 again...

cooljeanius commented 2 years ago

first checkbox done as of 1cc5035

OK I'm not seeing the Clarissa thing happening in the final scenario with BfW 1.16? @Ashmyr can you reconfirm?

Ashmyr commented 2 years ago

I don't have 1.16?

cooljeanius commented 2 years ago

I don't have 1.16?

ok, so, uh... I guess I'm just going to cross that one off for now, then...

cooljeanius commented 1 year ago

I don't have 1.16?

@Ashmyr you do now, though

cooljeanius commented 1 year ago

@Konrad22 did you witness any of the things mentioned here?
