Release Notes 1.17.8

From The Battle for Wesnoth Wiki

New Content

MP /report popup

Using the /report command in online multiplayer now shows a popup where multiple fields of information can be entered, rather than the current free form text that could previously be entered after the command.

Changes To Existing Content

Hotkey changes

The default hotkey changes made with 1.17.7 have been reverted following negative feedback.

Profile button in MP lobby

Clicking the Profile button in the online multiplayer lobby now brings up the forum profile web page of the user currently selected in the user list, rather than your own profile.

Monster unit XP required to level up

Many of the new monster/fauna units previously added to 1.17 have had the XP required for them to level up adjusted to better match existing conventions.

Raised/lowered terrain

It's now possible to add purely cosmetic raised or lowered terrain, allows there to be an additional level of raise or lowered terrain, as well as makes its use in the editor more intuitive.
