Package: wesnoth Version: 1:1.4-1 Severity: normal When one unit attacks another, Wesnoth calculates the chance to kill (CTK) and chance to be killed (CTBK) for each possible attack, and then suggests the attack it deems optimal. Clicking the "details" button gives the actual CTK/CTBK percentages and the damage histograms.
Many popular Wesnoth scenarios, such as SurvivalXtreme, offer the ability to upgrade a unit by spending gold at a shop. In these scenarios, battles may regularly occur between units that have thousands of HP, high resistance, high defense, and berserk weapons. This causes the CTK/CTBK calculation to take an excessively long time, sometimes up to several minutes in extreme cases; during this time, Wesnoth does not respond to user input and does not redraw its window. Furthermore, when clicking the "details" button, Wesnoth again takes an exceedingly long time, suggesting that it recalculates the data rather than saving it. Ideally, Wesnoth's CTK/CTBK calculator should not take this long to return results. In any case, it should not completely block the user interface while running, should not recalculate the same data when providing further details, and should give some kind of progress indicator while running. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages wesnoth depends on: ii libboost-iostreams1.34 1.34.1-10 Boost.Iostreams Library ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfreetype6 2.3.5-1+b1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libfribidi0 0.10.9-1 Free Implementation of the Unicode ii libgcc1 1:4.3.0-2 GCC support library ii libsdl-image1.2 1.2.6-3 image loading library for Simple D ii libsdl-mixer1.2 1.2.8-3 mixer library for Simple DirectMed ii libsdl-net1.2 1.2.7-2 network library for Simple DirectM ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.13-2 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libstdc++6 4.3.0-2 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.1.3-1 X11 client-side library ii python2.4 2.4.5-1 An interactive high-level object-o ii wesnoth-data 1:1.4-1 data files for Wesnoth ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-11 compression library - runtime wesnoth recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
