[ Expand all ]
General
A server-side exploit specific to 1.13.x that would allow malicious users to fake MP chat messages from any sender (including the server itself) has been fixed.
- Saves of Under the Burning Suns from ALL previous versions are no longer supported. The next release will include a patch addressing this for old 1.13.x saves using the new elves, but saves using the 1.12.x elves will remain unsupported.
- The Rise of Wesnoth now features a new set of story screen art drawn by LordBob.
- Fixed minor issues in The Hammer of Thursagan scenario 12 (“The Underlevels”).
- Swapped the position and formatting of game names and titles in the MP lobby and made the Faction Select button’s purpose clearer in the game setup screen, as per player feedback.
- Added team color to a few background units missing it in Aethermaw.
- Unit descriptions in the help browser use the new multiplication sign format for attack lists now (issue #2873).
- Added a button to the Load Game dialog to open the saves folder.
- Removed the Font Scaling preference. It was too buggy (issues #2792 and #1624).
- Fixed some hotkeys triggering multiple commands on GNU/Linux (bug #1736).
- Fixed [modify_side] share_vision=yes not doing anything (bug #2850).
- Fixed regression where unit filters in [disable] weapon specials would not match the attacking unit.
- Fixed images with no alpha channel rendering incorrectly.
- Fixed unit selection not persisting between uses of Create Unit.
- Fixed assertion when undoing actions in a synced context.
- [filter_wml] no longer accepts [and] and [or] in addition to [not] since the implementation was non-functional.
- Fixed some MP passwords being saved incorrectly (issue #2745)
- Fixed AI not recruiting in some circumstances when there are only cheap units on the recall list.
- Fixed sometimes being unable to join MP games with non-required eras.
- Fixed locations not being added to the palette when loading a map (#1023)
General bugs:
- The game can crash when planning recruits in Planning Mode.
- Preprocessor errors corrupts cache (#1924). If this happens you have to wipe your cache. That can be done in Preferences → Cache.
- Trackpad tap clicking is sometimes not recognized (forum post).
- Unofficial builds with OpenMP support enabled randomly freeze (bug #1260).

Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
regarding the font scaling: Its maybe an better idea to create an wide-screen version of the UI for larger screens, that can be selected by the user in settings.
Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
I don't think we can easily do that with the time we have.

I don't know if this is the correct place to post this but I noticed that if un-named abilities are used they are still seen seperated with a comma in the unit description.
For example if my ability "Immune to slow" has no name:
Not a big deal though.

Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
What if it has no name attribute at all, rather than
name=""
? The engine can distinguish between these two cases (but no idea whether it does in this context), so it might make a difference.Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
From what I remember of the help code, it doesn't check either empty or blank.

Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
Code for the ability inspire (note: I realize it is outdated and i will update with the new filter options at some point). It is duplicated 5 times for each level (0-4)
Image of what happens:
Code: Select all
[leadership]
id=ROLinspire_1
value=10
cumulative=no
affect_self=no
[affect_adjacent]
adjacent=n,ne,se,s,sw,nw
[filter]
level=1
[/filter]
[/affect_adjacent]
[/leadership]

Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
Was he talking about help? I thought he meant reports (on the sidebar). Not that it matters, what I said still holds.
Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
I assumed he was talking abut help. But the sidebar is a possibility, too...

I was talking about help as seen by the screen shot above...
I didn't notice any with the sidebar.

Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
i have a question. the filter_weapon filter for leadership and resistance abilities is not put in 1.13.14. it will be in 1.14? or the idea is abandonned?
Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
I just finished the campaign Northern Rebirth and in the last scenario The Showdown I noticed a strange behavior of the Raksas side: it recruited unit the first turn, and then it don't move these reruited units until one of my units approaches the useful distance to be attacked.
in short, the Raksas side is totally inactive in the first part of the battle, a part the garrison units upon the walls. That's the right behavior?
I posted the replay of the game

Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
Hmmm... I don't remember seeing this behavior 2-3 months ago when I was doing a playthrough/ & fixes, but it's clear from the code that protecting 30,30 (Rakshas's location) is intended to be the highest priority for side 2. Not sure what, if anything, to do about it at the moment.

Re: Wesnoth 1.13.14 (1.14 Release Candidate 3)
It won't be in any 1.14 version. It's in master, so when 1.15.0 comes out it will be in that version.newfrenchy83 wrote: ↑April 20th, 2018, 10:32 am i have a question. the filter_weapon filter for leadership and resistance abilities is not put in 1.13.14. it will be in 1.14? or the idea is abandonned?
