This file is here to allow devs to easily add stuff in the release notes for the next release, it allows easy syncing with the release team, since you don't have to be around when the release takes place... Just dump whatever you want to have mentioned in the release notes here. Please take care that it is in a way that allows copy&paste to the release notes. That is making sure that spelling/grammar/whatever is usable and that you are using complete sentences, not just single words. Please do use forum syntax and do *NOT* split lines after 80 chars! Stuff that belongs in here: * groundbreaking changes (new campaigns, extremely new feature, ...) * changed dependencies (new things, version bumps, stuff that was removed) * known bugs The release team should empty this file after each release. ======= CHANGES ======= [section="Fixed Carryover bug in mp campaigns"] [bug]22936[/bug] has now been fixed, meaning that clients should get the correct gold carryover when they play mp campaigns together. [b] The bug was client-side, and old clients (1.12.0, 1.12.1) cannot be fixed! [/b]. All clients in an mp campaign must have version >= 1.12.2 or OOS will result. It is recommended that all clients upgrade to 1.12.2 for this and other reasons. If you are producing an mp campaign, you can help mitigate the problem by giving users a warning of the bad versions, using WML code like the following in your scenario: [code] #ifver WESNOTH_VERSION < 1.12.2 [message] speaker=narrator message= _ "You have wesnoth which is affected by a gold carryover bug -- you will get OOS when the campaign transitions, and you will have to save and reload each time to proceed. Please consider to upgrade your wesnoth to version 1.12.2 at least." [/message] #endif [/code] C.f. [wiki]PreprocessorRef[/wiki] [/section] [section="Fixed 'time over' events in mp"] 'time over' were previously not synced. This means if you do one in the following things in a game with at least one client with version < 1.12.2 you will get OOS [list] [*]using [set_variable] rand= [*]creating units ([unit], [unstore_unit], wesnoth.put_unit ...)
