I just made 2 addons to serve for a possible 2021 Tournamnet to test the rc of 1.0
Please check and upload. I used the packager for it and modified Kaputtniks Hero wincondition

BTW: I would love to have this WC in official WC. ideally with configurable MAXHeroes amount.

I think it would be nice to have a wincondition be part of a map. Say the player chooses a map and the wincondition suggested by the map will automatically be set.

Or the new command line option --new_game_from_template= (new_game_template) will be part of a map. So choosing a map will adjust all settings in the game setup screen to the values given by the new_game_template. A player should be able to adjust the settings in the game setup screen then, e.g. to choose another tribe.

New Add-on : "Terrains without default resources"

This add-on adds the same terrains as the shipped terrains but without any default resources. So you can make real dry landscapes or dead seas containing no fish at all.

Nordfriese, would you be so kind and add it to the add-ons server? Thank you!

Hi

I made a "world" add-on with terrains and trees for tropical areas (mainly rain forests and such alike). There are 18 new terrains and (so far) 7 trees (2 of them palm trees). But please don't expect a wonderous piece of artwork ;) -- I didn't use blender for the trees, instead I altered the already existing trees (colors, size, proportions, added or removed some details).

I hope it is usefull for some players and map developers.

I tested the add-on and so far it works (but not for Amazonians' rare trees ... yet). But there is still an issue, and I don't know how to fix it: when both add-ons "foreign planet" an my "tropics" are activated, then the editor crashes while starting. With e.g. Kaputtniks "impassable waters" ain't such a problem, both work at the same time just fine.
I used the scripts of "foreign_planet.wad" as template -- maybe there is some code that only works if used in one add-on? The trees shouldn't be the reason for the problem, because the editor already crashed without any trees (and of course without the immovable-entries in the editor.lua file).
Oh, and I used the widelands version master-8892.
