New Content

Unit Sprites

New north-facing animations have been added for the Loyalist Bowman, Troll Whelp, and Dunefolk Skirmisher. New death animations have been added for the Orcish Grunt.

Command history for in-game consoles

The history of commands used, such as in debug mode or in multiplayer, are now saved. This means you can use the up/down arrow keys to select a previously entered command to re-execute rather than needing to retype the same command multiple times. Regular chat messages, however, are not stored.

Disengage orb

The orb above units' hitpoint and experience bars now shows a new state. Units that can move but can't attack are now shown with an orb that is part yellow and part red. This will be shown for Under the Burning Suns' disengage ability and for similar UMC abilities that give extra moves after a character attacks.

Changes To Existing Content

World Conquest

World Conquest has been disabled with this release due to an increasing number of bugs being found in it along with its maintainer having become inactive. If the bugs remain unfixed and World Conquest continues to not have a maintainer, it is very likely that it will be removed prior to the release of 1.16.

We would very much like for World Conquest to remain in mainline however and would welcome anyone willing to take over maintaining and improving it. Please contact Pentarctagon on either the forums or Discord if this would be something that you'd be interested in doing.

Delay Advancement modification

The Delay Advancement modification has been removed in favor of adding the Plan Unit Advancement modification to mainline. This will allow for choosing what a unit should level up in advance if it levels up on an enemy player's turn in an online multiplayer game.

Additionally, when your unit levels up on an enemy player's turn in an online multiplayer game, the unit it advances to is no longer random - it will always level up into the first advancement listed on the unit's in-game description page.

Fixes

On high-resolution monitors, the preferences dialog has been resized to work with HDPI fonts.

General/Misc

Minimum Requirements

GCC 7, or another C++17 capable compiler, is now required when compiling Wesnoth from source.

Newly Introduced Issues
