What's New in Wesnoth 1.6
We have many new features for your enjoyment this time around,
including a new mainline campaign, two new multiplayer scenarios and
another refresh of the user interface.
For Players
Campaigns
There is a new mainline campaign, The Legend of Wesmere, with new
gameplay features including (in one scenario) the ability to use the
game AI as your commander for an allied side, setting its objectives as
you like. Search for this hidden feature by right-clicking on your
allied commanders during scenario 7. This campaign was imported from
the Wesnoth-UMC-Dev project, where it spent a few months being
adapted for mainline.
Almost all mainline campaigns now use a different method of carrying
over gold from scenario to scenario: the amount of gold retained is now
40% instead of 80%, but it is added to the minimum starting gold of the
next scenario instead of only replacing it if higher.
Many mainline campaigns have improved storyline prose and new cutscenes
or epilogs. Several have improved and redrawn campaign maps. All now
have dates in the Wesnoth history timeline, and almost all have journey
animations on their campaign maps. The history and geography of Wesnoth
have been developed in more depth and detail: More campaigns now
include references to events in the overall history, adding depth and
richness to the narration.
Multiplayer
The multiplayer server can now be logged onto using the username and
password of a Wesnoth forum account. However, registration is not
required and one can continue to use an unregistered username.
The multiplayer lobby has been improved to allow easier management of
the friends and ignores list by double-clicking on the player list.
Notable changes to default era balancing include:
* Increased the cost of the Goblin Spearman from 8 to 9.
* Increased the movement of the Goblin Spearman line from 4 to 5.
* Increased the melee attack of the Goblin Spearman from 4-3 to 6-3.
* Added the traits weak, slow and dim and made goblins each receive
one of them instead of two standard traits.
* Added the marksman special to the ranged attack of the Orcish
Assassin line.
* Increased the cost of the Walking Corpse from 7 to 8.
* Decreased the cost of the Bowman from 15 to 14.
* Decreased the melee attack of the Bowman from 6-2 to 4-2.
General
The game graphics have been improved with a whole new range of unit
portraits. Many more units have full animations and team coloring.
There is a new basic terrain type, coastal reef, which gives most
land-based units slightly higher defense than in regular shallow water,
and 70% defense to most water-based units such as mermen and nagas.
Forests get more variety with graphics for spring/summer, fall and
winter deciduous forest terrains. There are new village graphics for
human cities and primitive tribal areas.
Our composers have added five new original background tracks: Heroes'
Rite, Siege of Laurelmor, Suspense, The Dangerous Symphony and The Deep
Path. Also, the game now plays special music clips for victory and
defeat events.
The game interface has continued to evolve, especially in making more
dramatic use of portraits. Unit recall dialogs now display useful
information about your veterans' traits. Add-ons now display their
category when you browse them on the download server.
New game translations include Arabic, Croatian, Friulian, Latvian,
Macedonian and Marathi. Existing translations have been extensively
updated and revised.
For Content Developers
The map editor was much improved (thank you, Google Summer of Code). It
can be started from within the game now. You can toggle overlay
displays of terrain codes and map coordinates while editing. The editor
can handle multiple maps in a session, and you can take screenshots of
full maps. There's also a new interactive editing tool for animated
journey tracks.
There are some new core units available everywhere: Troll Shaman, Royal
Warrior and Dread Bat.
Less visible changes include improvements in the game AI, including a
new formula-based AI that allows more flexible setting of objectives
and an improved pathfinding algorithm. As usual, WML has grown more
powerful with many new tags and attributes to extend the range of what
campaign authors can do. The GUI engine is under heavy development;
these changes will allow the entire GUI to be configured from WML. The
first steps have been made, but the project is not finished yet and
will continue in the 1.7 development cycle.
The support for writing Python AIs has been removed because the feature
opened a serious security hole. However, we hope to build an even more
powerful AI-scripting feature, possibly using a different and safer
extension language, in 1.7.

and point to an "Unknown Unit" page explaining why
* the default zoom key now toggles between default and last used zoom. The
switch is also faster (cached)
* the unit list now colors the stats of units.
* WML engine:

* now [base_unit]id= inside [unit] can extend upon existing unit types
* new tag [filter_radius] to allow greater control over radius expansion
when using the standard location filter
* fix a bug where containers could only be stored at the top-level
* fix a bug where both x and y had to be specified in location filters
* better handling/reporting of invalid WML variable type usage

symbol *before* the files are repreprocessed
* fog and shroud tiles are now defined by the TerrainWML (not [game_config])
* new key store_location_as= to store generated chamber item locations
* the border has been made themable
* Instead of having an empty upkeep type as the default when reading a
config file being used to normally give leaders a 0 upkeep, now leaders
(canrecruit=1) are specifically exempted from upkeep and the upkeep
type defaults to "full" when read from config files the same as for
using the recruit function. This makes documenting how upkeep works
simpler (it currently wasn't really correct) without having to make
leaders loyal. It also will work better for campaigns where the leaders
change (not that there are any now) so that the current leader is
exempted and any exleaders pay for upkeep (unless the are specically
marked as loyal).
* make random_traits default to "yes". Leaders can't get random traits
yet, because it breaks MP, but it does give campaign units traits
by default. It also allows specifying some traits and letting the
rest fill in randomly. Some traits are always forced on for units
that can get them (undead and mechanical).
* not_living tag removed from race, as this information is provided
by the undead and mechanical traits.
* the default for turn limit has changed to unlimited, if you have scenarios
which rely on the old default of 50 please add a turns parameter to it
* In help, remove the useless "None" terrain type from the terrains list of
an unit
* team color
* allow color ranges to be defined on-the-fly (like color palettes)
* now [side] colour=<string> is valid (previously only int)
* miscellaneous and bug fixes
* added a .desktop entry for the editor so that it is shown
in the kde/gnome menu
* rewrote the config merge routine (should improve parse time slightly)
* various code cleanups
* Isle of Anduin renamed to Isle of Alduin to avoid copyright problems.
* the assertion 'str.size() <= 4' no longer happens, instead the terrain
is read as 'void' and an ingame message is shown (bug #9609)
* IMPORTANT! End-of-scenario no longer takes you immediately to the
next scenario or the lobby. Instead, you linger in browse mode --
menu commands for chat, saving games, etc. are available.
Clicking end-of-turn ends the linger and takes you out.
* fixed a bug-cheat allowing super-ranged attack in some special cases
(thanks jgp93)
* fixed incorrect displayed reachable zone when moving next to an enemy
in special ZoC cases (skirmish or lvl0)
* It seemed it's ambiguous whether the GPL license as supplied by
Wesnoth means GPL 2 or GPL 2+, since Sirp's orginal intent was
GPL 2+ the license has been changed accordingly.
(See https://mail.gna.org/public/wesnoth-dev/2007-07/msg00014.html)
* When advancing from Dark Sorcerer to Lich, you now get the undead
trait. The way this is fixed can add random traits if the new unit
type allows more traits then the unit currently has. This would
cause a problem for multiplayer, but no advancement paths currently
have this case. You do get to keep your current traits, even if you
wouldn't get them in the new unit type.
* the minimum savegame protection is ignored when either the savegame
or the current game has 'test' as version
* Add 2 debug commands: "fps" for showing framerate, and "benchmark"
to force a continuous refresh of the screen (for testing the real fps)

right-click cancel on map using fog/shroud

variable (bug #9555)
* the automatic unit description used a non-MP safe way, this has been
fixed
* the unit name generation could with different locales call get_random()
a different number of times. This lead to different names and traits.
Changed to call random a fixed number of times which fixes the traits.
* miscellaneous and bug fixes
* various code cleanups
* proper handling of description autogeneration for per level [effect]
on level 0 units
* changed the order of which the permanent modifications of a unit are

What's New in Wesnoth 1.2
The single player mode has a new tutorial, and 3 new campaigns: Two
Brothers, The South Guard, and Under the Burning Suns. The first one was
intentionally designed to be easy for beginning players. The last one is
set in an environment quite different from that of the typical Wesnoth
campaign, and includes a few changes to game rules. The existing campaigns
include new scenarios, dialogue, items, and optional bonus victory
objectives. Replay of saved games has been improved considerably, allowing
one to show single turns at a time, navigate through the replay, and
toggle fog-of-war at will.
Battle for Wesnoth
Multiplayer has new features, making the internet or LAN mode a more
pleasant experience. It allows setting a per-turn time limit, sending
private messages to allies, and banning unwelcome users by IP address. The
multiplayer lobby interface now displays detailed information about
existing games. A few new multiplayer maps were also added.
Other changes in game content include new units, new terrain types, and
further balancing of unit stats and abilities. We have added progress bars
to major loading points in the game. We have also added some great new
music, and a host of new sound effects. There have also been some
rearrangements and improvements to the in-game help.
One major change is that we have undertaken a heavy revision of our sprite
imagery; affecting almost all units except the drakes, mermen, and naga,
intended to bring most of the units into consistent style and correct
size. A result of this is that units (which we've revised) that belong to
different teams, now show their team color on clothes and banners. We have
also completely replaced the icons representing the attacks of units.
There are a few new portraits and story pictures, some major improvements
to terrain graphics (especially the new mountains, cave,
castles/encampments, swamp, canyons, and tropical forests, not to mention
a few others).
Battle for Wesnoth
Developers and Modders can enjoy new WML (Wesnoth markup language)
features, including custom abilities, unit stat modification, more
detailed events, and the ability to script a custom AI in Python.
Additionally, we have added basic code support for the animation of
walking, swimming, dying, and other special actions; in doing so we've
done a major cleanup of the WML that describes said animations, making it
much more consistent.
Battle for Wesnoth now supports right-to-left languages. There are new
Polish and Norwegian translations, and many other incomplete ones. In
total, there are 35 translations being worked on; please join us to help
finish the incomplete translations for future releases.
Version 1.2 includes a gameplay feedback mechanism. Players can allow the
program to send anonymous statistics of their performance in single-player
campaigns to our server - this gives campaign authors the information they
need to balance the difficulty of their campaigns.
any that has a gettext() function. Fixes build on NetBSD-3.99.16 (and probably older
releases too).
Lots of additional translation files now installed, add them to the PLIST

New in 0.8.7:
0.8.6 was never released due bugs found late in the release process.
This release, 0.8.7, will most likely have it's fair share of bugs
and we need your help to get them hunted down. May the force be
with you when you are playtesting.
Highlights for the release: Scenario balancing for 'Heir to the
Throne' and 'The Eastern Invasion' campaigns. User interface
improvements: shadows for labels to make them visible on each type
of terrain and in-game help system improvements. Graphics improvements:
terrains and transitions, unit images and animations, portraits,
The Green Isle map. Unit balancing: ghosts are now more vulnerable
to holy and less vulnerable to "physical" attacks. 18 new units
added. Slovenian as new translation, 17 updated translations.
Multiplayer improvements: renewed lobby, leader indicator, random
map generator improvements and variations (Desert, Winter, Marsh),
map descriptions, Broken Bridge map. Various improvements for
logging system, wesnothd network threading, Out of Sync detection
and reporting. Preparations for 320x240 resolution support. Image,
data and code cleanups. Lots of bug fixes - see all details at

movetype which has high resistance values against all "physical"
attacks and their movement is now slowed by water. Undeadfoot units
have been granted 'deep walking' - that is marching through deep
water.
