  The window sizes available in the preferences dialog will now correctly update to reflect the window resizing while the preferences dialog is open.
• Shadow animation
  The Shadow's north-facing animation now correctly uses the north-facing frames instead of the south-facing frames.
• Planning mode on start preference
  Enabling the preference to have games always start with planning mode enabled now does actually cause games to start with planning mode enabled.

Known Issues

New in 1.16.x»

General issues:

• OneDrive can interfere with Wesnoth’s user config/data directory set-up, leading to all kinds of different manifestations of the issue. There’s no fix available yet. The recommendation for the time being is to avoid syncing the Wesnoth user directory with OneDrive.

Carried over from 1.14.x»

General issues:

• Preprocessor errors corrupt cache (issue #1924). If this happens you have to wipe your cache. That can be done in Preferences → Cache.
