A question to Skelos, and possibly to Asadex:

If I simply add an entry to Artefacts.xml, following the right formatting and using the correct attributes, effect descriptions etc., will the artifact become available in the editor, or does it take some more steps to create a custom gizmo?

[asadexes]

i suppose yes, but you have also to make an icon

Anyone know if you can make a "campaign" with the map editor or if it is it possible by hand-editing XML files?

Now that I think about it, even if hand-editing the XML files were possible there would still be deployment issues, requiring very careful installation by the end-user, which means it is probably not worth it anyway. . .

I have analyzed the campaign XML files and they're pretty simple. After each scenario units are assigned to a "corpse", which is then specified for the next scenario to use.

I don't have a working editor, but I believe the triggers can't be much more complex. Is it possible to open one of the campaign scenarios and see, how are the triggers set? And more importantly - how are bonuses for silver and gold victories defined, for they are not specified in the campaign XML file, so they have to be in the scenario.

You can set Bonuses for victories in the editor
You must to edit a new trigger that set the starting forces for the next map as the remaining forces you have at the end of the current map
