Fixes

Add-on download count incorrect

Since 1.15.7 the number of times an add-on had been downloaded was not counted correctly in all cases. The bug causing this issue has been fixed, however it is not possible to reset the download count of affected add-ons to the correct value.

Dune Raider and Marauder team colors

An issue has been fixed with the Dune Raider and Marauder units where the team colors were not always correctly set.

Custom damage types

For some time the ability to set default damage resistances for custom damage types has not worked. As of 1.15.9 this has been fixed, however this does also have the possibility to cause Out Of Sync errors for add-ons using this functionality in singleplayer if the save file is from an earlier version of Wesnoth or in multiplayer if not all players are using 1.15.9.

General/Misc

Minimum boost version

The minimum required version of Boost is now 1.65.
