At the moment there's quite a lot of UMC which uses deprecated WML and it doesn't seem to get fixed. I think this might be partly caused by the fact people don't know things are broken; most people don't look at the console output Wesnoth generates.
To solve the problem I want to make a new logger, which stores all WML problems encountered in Wesnoth and adds an extra button on the startup page. This button named broken WML will show the messages encountered. If no messages are available the button will be grayed out, if there are messages the button will be red so it really gets noticed. I _want_ the button to be intrusive so it does get noticed and not overlooked. Next to that I think it might be nice if some syntax will be obsoleted that the message will contain when the support gets removed. After the support has been removed the message can stay for a while to indicate when the support has been removed. Once we find somebody who wants to work on the new campaign server we can also start to block content which in known to be broken or at least give an indication that it is broken. How does this sound? Mark de Wever aka Mordante/SkeletonCrew _______________________________________________ Wesnoth-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wesnoth-dev
